Question

If Grumbs and Harrumphs are the Bingoes in a sentence, and no rule of grammar is violated, which of the following is / are true?
I. Ihavitoo is the Cingo.
II. Lovitoo is the Dingo.
III. Either Lovitoo or Metoo must be one of — or both — the Dingoes.

• A. I only
• B. II only
• C. III only
• D. I & III only

Hint:

When a rule forces one word’s presence, determine exactly where it can fit in the sentence type structure.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Grumbs as a Bingo $\Rightarrow$ Ihavitoo must also be present (rule 3).
Since the 2 Bingoes are Grumbs and Harrumphs, Ihavitoo cannot be a Bingo — it must then be the Cingo to satisfy the “Ihavitoo present” requirement. Thus, I is true.
Dingoes = 2 required. They can be from \{Lovitoo, Metoo, Nana\}. No rule forces Lovitoo to be chosen unless Koolodo appears (which is not mentioned here). Hence II is not necessarily true.
However, Lovitoo or Metoo must appear because we need 2 Dingoes, and without either of them, we would have Nana and one more — possible. Actually, rule says nothing about requiring Lovitoo/Metoo — so III must be rechecked: Without Lovitoo and Metoo, both Dingoes would be Nana repeated, which is not stated as allowed — so in normal unique-word assumption, we must pick at least one of Lovitoo/Metoo. Hence III is true.
Thus, I and III are true.
\(\boxed{\text{Correct Answer: (D) I & III only}}\)
