The sentence can be translated as "For all x, if Lola wants x, then Lola gets x." This is represented as (∀x)(Wx ⊃ Gx) in predicate logic. Choice A is incorrect because it implies that if Lola gets something, then she also wants it, which is not necessarily true. Choice B and D are incorrect because they allow for cases where Lola gets something she doesn't want. Choice E is incorrect because it allows for cases where Lola doesn't get something she wants.
