.
[pic](A) Loren only
[pic](B) Tim and Gill
[pic](C) Loren and Mike
[pic](D) John and Tim
[pic](E) John, Gill, and Peter

If Gill is riding immediately behind Loren's car andimmediately ahead of Tim's car, all of the following must be true EXCEPT:

.
[pic](A) one
[pic](B)two
[pic](C) three
[pic](D) four
[pic](E) five

Assume that a seventh rider is riding with John in the first car, but that all other rules remain unchanged. Which of the following is a completeand accurate list of the riders who might be riding in the fifth car?
