B, you have to take Algebra I before Algebra II

Explanation:

A logical reasoning is the process of using logical thinking in order to reach a conclusion.

Example A: Jorge does not have to be a chef because he wears a hat to work. He may just be cold.

Example C:  Brian lost weight but it does not have to mean that he is on a diet, he might have been ill, taken up some kind of sports or simply have changed his eating habits.

Example D: California has beaches because it's located on the coast. Sites located on a coast do not have to be islands.

Example B: Dara is taking Algebra II. Since taking Algebra I is mandatory to take before Algebra II, it is more than logical that Dara must have taken Algebra I first.
