The following questions two statements are given and these statements are followed by two conclusions
numbered I and II. You have to take tfie given two statements to be true even if they seem to be at variance
from commonly known facts. Read the conclusions and then decide which ofthe given conclusions logically
follows from the two given statements, disregarding commonly known facts.
Statements : All windows are needles.Some trees are windows.
Conclusions : I. Some trees are needles.
II. Some trees are not needles.
Since one premise is particular, so the conclusion must be particular. Also, since the
term 'needles is distributed in II (O type proposition) without being distributed in
the premises, so, conclusion II cannot follow. Thus, only I follows.
