Read the excerpt from Carlito’s letter to the editor. College athletes should be paid for playing sports. They bring in revenue for their teams by attracting both sponsors and crowds. Shouldn’t the athletes get a share of this money? They must keep up their grades in addition to their many hours of training each day. If students working in the campus bookstore can get paid, there is no reason that the athletes should not be paid as well. The athletes are working as hard as—if not harder than—bookstore employees.

What evidence does the author use to support the faulty analogy in this excerpt?

College sports bring in significant revenue.
College athletes attract sponsors and crowds.
College sports are as important to colleges as bookstores are.
College athletes work as hard as those with campus jobs.
