D Correct answer
Explanation

To abstract means to extract, summarize, or distill the essential points from something. When you abstract the main points from an argument, you're pulling out the key ideas while leaving out details. 'Absolved' means forgiven, 'absorbed' means taken in or engrossed, and 'absconded' means escaped - none of these fit the context of extracting points.
