"Some people believe that witnessing violence in movies will discharge aggressive energy. Does watching someone else eat fill one's own stomach?" Notice that the argument is refuting the first belief (i.e. believing that witnessing violence in movies will discharge aggressive energy), by showing the ridiculousness of an analogous situation (i.e. watching someone else eat fills one's own stomach).
Answer choice (D) similarly refutes the belief that some people have that economists can control inflation, by showing how an analogous belief is ridiculous, i.e. that meteorologists have the ability to make the sun shine.
Just as in the stimulus, a belief is being refuted through showing the ridiculousness of an analogous situation.
