Logic Breakdown
Passage Summary: If one specific group shows up, the meeting starts at 6:00; if another group shows up, it starts at 7:00.
Reasoning: The passage provides two conditional rules regarding the start time of the general assembly based on which committee achieves a quorum.
Analysis: This is a classic logic puzzle involving mutually exclusive outcomes. Since the assembly cannot start at both 6:00 and 7:00 simultaneously, it is impossible for both committees to have a quorum at the same time. You should look for an answer choice that recognizes this conflict, likely stating that at least one of the committees must lack a quorum.

E
E follows: If the standards committee has a quorum (S), then the general assembly would begin at 6 (G6). But if the awards committee had a quorum (A), it would begin at 7 (G7). Since the assembly cannot begin at two different times, S implies not A.
