Question

In this question, there is given a statement followed by two courses of action numbered I and II. A course of action is an administrative step or decision to be taken for improvement, follow up or further action regarding the problem on the basis of the information in the statement. Assume everything in the statement to be true and decide which course of action follows logically from the given statement.
In spite of the principal's repeated warnings, a child was caught exploding crackers secretly in the school.
1. All crackers should be taken away from the child and he should be threatened never to do it again.
II. The child should be severely punished for his wrong act.

• A. If only action I follows.
• B. If only action II follows.
• C. If either action I or II follows.
• D. If neither action I nor II follows

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Since the act has been repeated despite multiple warnings, issuing another warning (course I) would be ineffective. Severe punishment is necessary to set an example for him and others, making course II the inevitable course of action.
The correct answer is (B) : If only action II follows.
