In this questions, select the option that best explains the information conveyed in the sentence. You must not attend the end-of-year party.

  1. It is not necessary that you attend the party
  2. It is necessary that you do not attend the party ✓
  3. You do not have to decide whether to attend the party or not
  4. You have to decide whether to attend the party or not
Explanation

“Must not” expresses a prohibition: it is required that you do not go.

So it is necessary that you do not attend the party is correct. “It is not necessary” would match “need not” or “do not have to”, which is a much weaker meaning.
