Question

Read the given statements and conclusions carefully and decide which of the conclusions logically follow(s) from the statements. Statements:

• People who live in the big city crowd into jammed buses
• They cross the street in competition with high powered motor cars

Conclusions:

• Traffic jam is inevitable in big cities
• Traveling is very difficult for city people

• A. Only conclusion I follows
• B. Only conclusion II follows
• C. Neither conclusion I nor II follows
• D. Both conclusions follow

Hint:

Distinguish between what is explicitly stated and what is assumed when drawing conclusions.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Step 1: Understand statements
- The statements describe crowded buses and competition with motor cars in the streets.
- These indicate travel challenges, but do not explicitly state traffic jams.
Step 2: Analyze conclusions
- Conclusion I: "Traffic jam is inevitable in big cities" is a generalization not directly supported by the statements.
- Conclusion II: "Traveling is very difficult for city people" logically follows due to crowding and competition described.
Thus, only conclusion II logically follows.
