Statement: He is a vegetarian. Conclusions: I. He eats eggs. II. He does not eat meat.
A. Neither I nor II follows
B. Only II follows
C. Only I follows
D. Both I and II follow
Answer: Option B
Solution (By JKExamLibrary)
Vegetarian definition may vary; typically no meat. Some vegetarians eat eggs, but it's not universal, so I does not necessarily follow. II does follow (no meat).
Statement:
The company has prohibited the use of mobile phones during working hours.
Conclusions:
I. The company believes mobile phones distract employees from work.
II. All employees own a mobile phone.
Which conclusion(s) logically follow?
Explanation:
A prohibition on an activity during working hours logically implies that the management considers it detrimental or distracting to work (I follows). The policy applies to those who have phones, but it doesn't mean *every single* employee owns one (II does not follow).
Statements:
1. No student is a teacher.
2. All teachers are principals.
Conclusions:
I. No student is a principal.
II. Some principals are teachers.
Which conclusion(s) logically follow?
Explanation:
While no student is a teacher, the principal category could still encompass students outside of the teacher category. Therefore, I does not strictly follow. Since all teachers are principals, it is a fact that some principals are teachers (Conclusion II).
Statement:
Reading books improves vocabulary and enhances imagination.
Conclusions:
I. People who do not read books have poor vocabulary.
II. A person with a good imagination definitely reads books.
Which conclusion(s) logically follow?
Explanation:
The statement identifies reading as one way to improve vocabulary and imagination. It does not state it is the *only* way. People might improve vocabulary or imagination through other means. Therefore, neither conclusion strictly follows.
