Difficulty: Easy
Correct Answer: Ankit likes to sing and dance
Explanation:
Introduction / Context:
We have a short narrative: last year, Ankit attended an outdoor-activity camp; this year, he looks forward to a music camp and explicitly “hopes to sing, dance, and learn guitar.” We must identify the conclusion that necessarily follows from the given lines—not from external assumptions.
Given Data / Assumptions:
Concept / Approach:
When a subject “hopes to” perform specific activities, it indicates desire/liking for those activities, unless contradicted by the text. The other options introduce unstated motives or quantifiers (e.g., “every summer”).
Step-by-Step Solution:
Verification / Alternative check:
Remove each option and ask: would the passage remain true? Only D is entailed by the text content itself.
Why Other Options Are Wrong:
They add new facts or strength of preference not in the passage.
Common Pitfalls:
Over-generalising from two instances; attributing motives to parents; reading “hopes to” as a mere possibility rather than a sign of interest.
Final Answer:
Ankit likes to sing and dance.
