Question 3
1 / -0

Directions: In the following question, three statements are given followed by four conclusions I, II, III and IV. You have to consider the given statements to be true even, if they seem to be at variance with commonly known facts. Read all the conclusions and decide which of the following logically follows from the given statements disregarding the commonly known facts.

Statements:

Some woods are flowers.

Some flowers are trees.

No tree is a chocolate.

Conclusions:

I. At least some chocolates are woods.

II. All flowers being woods is a possibility.

A
All follow

B
None follows

C
I follow

D
II follows

E
I and II follow

Solution

From the given statements we draw the following least possible Venn diagram.

I. At least some chocolates are woods → it’s possible but not definite, hence false.

II. All flowers being woods is a possibility → possibility is true as shown below.

Thus only conclusion II follows.
Question 4
1 / -0

Directions: The critical reasoning question is based on a short argument, a set of statements, or a plan of action. For each question, select the best answer of the choices given and explain why the chosen answer is the right fit.

Statements: It is observed that the team of average workers led by an efficient manager performs better than a team of smart workers led by an inefficient manager. However, smart workers tend to work alone than in teams.

Which of the following can certainly be implied from this?

A
Efficient managers can bring out better performance irrespective of the workers in the team.

B
Inefficient managers cannot work with team of average workers.

C
Smart workers prefer working alone because the managers are inefficient.

D
Smart workers can perform better when working alone.

E
Average workers can perform better in teams only.

Solution

The statement clearly states that efficient managers make their team perform better even if they have average workers. So option (A) is correct.

'Inefficient managers can or cannot work with average workers' is not the context of the statement. So option (B) is incorrect.

The statement does not specify the reason as to why smart workers prefer working alone, so option (C) is incorrect.

Option (D) and option (E) cannot be determined from this statement, so they are not implicit.

Which of the following, if true, would weaken the conclusion drawn in the above argument?

A
Those who are already using the above new products report greater difficulty in transition from new products to regular ones than from the regular ones to the new ones.

B
The cost of manufacturing these new products is not more than the cost of manufacturing the regular ones and the new products last longer than the regular ones.

C
The number of offices using new products is increasing month by month.

D
These products need to be purchased in huge lots and need to be stored in special conditions as the cost of procurement and strong is quite high.

E
It is found that children get adapted to new products faster than grown-ups.

Solution

The correct answer is Option (D), i.e. These products need to be purchased in huge lots and need to be stored in special conditions as the cost of procurement and strong is quite high.

The passage talks about the advantages of writing by using the new kind of pen and paper and arrives at a conclusion about the cost of a clerical job. We have to show that the new products do not lead to a decrease in the cost of a clerical job.

None of the option (A), (C) and (E) has anything about the cost. Hence, none of them weakens the conclusion.

Option (B) states that the new products can be manufactured and they also last longer. This information strengthens the conclusion.

According to option (D), procurement and storage costs are very high. This casts doubt on the conclusion that the cost of the clerical job can be decreased by using these new products.
Question 6

An increase is observed in these data between the two years.

The question demands an answer which not a suitable reason for such accidents in India.

The option (A) brings forward a mistake which is been committed by people which leads to the increasing rate of accidents in India.

Hence, it is not the answer.

The option (B) is also a valid reason for the increase in accidents in India.

Therefore it does not satisfy the given question.

The option (C) is again a common mistake encountered by many these days.

Multitasking has always been a reason for minor and major accidents.

Hence, it also not the correct answer.

The option (D) is the correct answer as it not the proper reason for a road accident.

These days lots of youngsters on two-wheelers drive at high speed. At the traffic signal, they are often found stopping after crossing the yellow line. This casual driving attitude is notwithstanding the government order for levy of heavy fines on offenders. Reluctantly, one has to draw the conclusion that the law has no effect.

Which one of the following, if true, would refute the arrangement in the above passage?

A
Many people find slow driving extremely boring.

B
Many people who don’t follow traffic rules think that they can get away by bribing the policeman on duty.

C

D
Many people, especially those who are underaged get on roads.

E
None of the above.

Solution

The correct answer is Option (C), i.e. When police personnel is sighted near the traffic signal, you find people following the rules.

We first need to read the passage carefully. The next step is to introspect the options, analyze them and see if they seem relevant with respect to the information/data provided to us.

The passage is about people’s attitude of not following traffic rule and doing rash driving. The fines which have been fixed by the police through government orders have got no change in the driver’s attitude.

The question is regarding the statement which doesn’t stand along with the arguments put in the passage. As the central point of the argument is that youngsters don’t obey traffic rules, option (C) goes against the premises and the conclusion.
Question 9
1 / -0

Direction: Statement is given followed by two inferences I and II. You have to consider the statement to be true even if it seems to be at variance from commonly known facts. You have to decide which of the given inferences, if any, follow from the given statement?

Statement: Those who have issues with eyesight need to wear glasses and do the needful as prescribed by the ophthalmologist.

Inferences:

I. Eyesight problems can be cured over time by doing absolutely nothing medically prescribed.

A
Only inference I true.

B
Only inference II is true.

C
Both inferences are true.

D
Either of I and II is true.

E
Neither I nor II is true.

Solution

Only inference II is true. The statement talks about how eyesight issues can be cured with proper medical assistance. Out of the inferences provided, the second one says that issues can be easily found out, targeted and made better on consultation with the doctor. As it goes about, it connects and reiterates what has been mentioned in the statement unlike the first inference about natural and gradual healing.

Therefore, Only inference II is true.
Question 10
1 / -0

Direction: Statement is given followed by two inferences I and II. You have to consider the statement to be true even if it seems to be at variance from commonly known facts. You have to decide which of the given inferences, if any, follow from the given statement?

Statement: Narendra Modi has announced that India will no longer tolerate any nuisance from across the border. He said that it was high time Pakistan came in line.

Inferences:

I. India will soon wage a war on Pakistan.

II. Pakistan has been given a last warning.

A
Only inference I is true.

B
Only inference II is true.

C
Either inference I or II is true.

D
Neither inference I nor II is true.

E
Both the inferences I and II are true.

Solution

In no way is it said that India will go on a war for such a reason. And therefore I isn't necessarily true. The fact that he says that India will no longer tolerate means that it is the last warning for Pakistan.
