Option C, "Act like your sister. She smoked pot and never got caught," is the best example of peer pressure using a reasoning tactic, as it suggests that engaging in the behavior is acceptable based on the experience of another person. It implies that if the sister could do it without getting caught, the student can too, thus providing a rationale for their actions. This reasoning influences the student's decision by normalizing the behavior.
