Question

In the question, the main statement is followed by four sentences. Select the pair of sentences that relates logically to the given statement.

All irresponsible parents shout if their children do not cavort.
A. All irresponsible parents do not shout.
B. Children cavort.
C. Children do not cavort.
D. All irresponsible parents shout.

• A. AB
• B. BA
• C. CA
• D. None of these

Hint:

When dealing with conditional statements, confirm the cause and effect relationship between the conditions and consequences.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

The statement asserts that all irresponsible parents shout if their children do not cavort. If children do not cavort (sentence B), the consequence is that irresponsible parents will shout (sentence A). Sentence (C) is contradictory to the main statement, as it suggests children do cavort, making the first condition irrelevant. Thus, the correct sequence is AB.
