Correct Answer: 2
Explanation:
A T-shirt is to a pair of shoes as a chest of drawers is to a couch. The relationship shows to which group something belongs. The T-shirt and shoes are both articles of clothing; the chest and couch are both pieces of furniture.
Correct Answer: Both I and II follow
Explanation:
The situation demands creating awareness among people about the dangers of drinking polluted water so that they themselves refrain from the same, and at the same time taking steps to provide safe drinking water. So, both the courses follow.
Correct Answer: Only assumption II is implicit
Explanation:
'Films are indispensable' does not mean that they are the only means of entertainment. So, I is not implicit. Clearly, II follows from the statement. So, it is implicit.
Correct Answer: passageway

A banquet and a feast are both large meals; a palace and a mansion are both large places of shelter.
Correct Answer: Only argument II is strong
Explanation:
Clearly, officers are paid duly for the jobs they do. So, they must do it honestly. Thus, argument II alone holds.
Correct Answer: Neither I nor II follows
Explanation:
Since both the premises are universal and one premise is negative, the conclusion must be universal negative. So, neither I nor II follows.
