Question
In each question below is given a statement followed by two conclusions numbered I and II. You have to assume everything in the statement to be true, then consider the two conclusions together and decide which of them logically follows beyond a reasonable doubt from the information given in the statement.
Give answer:
- (A) If only conclusion I follows
- (B) If only conclusion II follows
- (C) If either I or II follows
- (D) If neither I nor II follows and
- (E) If both I and II follow.
Statements: This book 'Z' is the only book which focuses its attention to the problem of poverty in India between 1950 and 1980.
Conclusions:
- There was no question of poverty before 1950.
- No other book deals with poverty in India during 1950 to 1980.
Answer: Option B
The phrase 'only book' in the statement makes II implicit. However, nothing about the state of poverty before 1950 can be deduced from the statement. So, I does not follow.
