Given it is April, you will receive a tax bill. If you receive a tax bill, the contrapositive of the second premise implies you must pay your taxes or else you would be someone who did not receive a tax bill. Paying your taxes leads to being a good citizen, according to the first premise. Therefore, the conclusion that yields a valid argument is that you are a good citizen.
