Correct Answer: Both I and II follow
Explanation:
The statement asserts that a good singer always has a sweet voice and only good singers are invited in the conference. This implies that all those invited in the conference have sweet voice and those who do not have sweet voice are not invited. So, both I and II follow.
Correct Answer: Either I or II follows
Explanation:
It is mentioned in the statement that either the managers should resign by the next day or their services would be terminated. So, either I or II follows.
Correct Answer: Neither I nor II follows
Explanation:
Clearly, I cannot be deduced from the statement. Also, nothing about discipline is mentioned in the statement. So, neither I nor II follows.
Correct Answer: Neither I nor II follows
Explanation:
The statement mentions that the candidates who have obtained second class Master's degree or have appeared for the final year examination of Master's degree, can apply for admission. This implies that both types of candidates may be selected on certain grounds. Thus, some candidates of each type and not all candidates of any one type, may be selected. So, neither I nor II follows.
Correct Answer: Both I and II follow
Explanation:
The statement mentions that the world for a man is as he makes it himself. So, some people might find it good and some quite bad. Thus, both I and II follow.
Correct Answer: Both I and II follow
Explanation:
The statement clearly mentions that fulfilling the eligibility criteria and submitting the application before the stipulated date are both essential to avoid rejection. So, I follows. Also, since it is given that the candidates whose applications are rejected shall not be called for written test, so II also follows.
Correct Answer: Neither I nor II follows
Explanation:
The statement mentions the problem of increased migration of children to cities. But the ways to deal with the problem cannot be deduced from it. So, neither I nor II follows.
Correct Answer: Only conclusion I follows
Explanation:
Clearly, only I provides a suitable explanation to the given statement. So, only I follows.
Correct Answer: Only conclusion II follows
Explanation:
Nothing about the growth of economy is mentioned in the statement. So, I does not follow. Also, it is given that 35 per cent of national income is shared by 10 per cent of households. This indicates unequal distribution. So, II follows.
Correct Answer: Only conclusion II follows
Explanation:
Clearly, X will not get the special prize because although he broke the world record, he was found to use unfair means. So, II follows while I does not.
