Question

Statement : The old order changed yielding place to new.
Conclusions :
I. Change is the law of nature.
II. Discard old ideas because they are old.

• A. Only conclusion I follows
• B. Only conclusion II follows
• C. Either I or II follows
• D. Neither I nor II follows

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

This problem involves analyzing conclusions drawn from a given statement to determine their validity based on the provided information.

Statement: The old order changed yielding place to new.

Conclusions:

1. Change is the law of nature.
2. Discard old ideas because they are old.

Options:

• Only conclusion I follows
• Only conclusion II follows
• Either I or II follows
• Neither I nor II follows

Analysis:

1. The statement implies that the old order (or ways) has naturally given way to new ones, suggesting a natural progression or change. This idea aligns with the notion that change is a constant, or a 'law of nature', which supports conclusion I.
2. Conclusion II suggests discarding old ideas solely because of their age, not considering their relevance or value. The statement merely notes a shift from old to new, without providing judgment on the worthiness of old ideas. Therefore, conclusion II does not logically follow.

Conclusion:

Based on the analysis, only conclusion I logically follows from the statement, emphasizing the natural phenomenon of change.

Correct Answer: Only conclusion I follows
