Courses of Action – Inner development vs. fashion Statement: “Beyond looks and appearances, it is important to develop oneself from within.” Decide which action(s) logically follow.

Difficulty: Easy

Correct Answer: Only III follows

Explanation:


Introduction / Context:
The statement emphasises inner growth over superficial appearance. It does not denounce fashion; it merely assigns greater importance to intrinsic development. We must pick the action(s) that align with this emphasis.



Given Data / Assumptions:

  • Premise: Inner development is important in addition to outward looks.
  • Actions: I) ignore fashion; II) pay attention to fashion; III) encourage self-development books.


Concept / Approach:
Because the statement says “besides looks,” it neither rejects nor mandates fashion. The only actionable recommendation that directly advances inner growth is promoting resources for self-development.



Step-by-Step Solution:

I (do not pay attention to fashion): Not implied; the statement does not forbid fashion.II (pay attention to fashion): Also not implied; attention to fashion may continue but is not the central message.III (encourage self-development books): This concretely supports inner growth and therefore follows.


Verification / Alternative check:

When a statement prioritises one aspect without rejecting another, the correct action nurtures the prioritised aspect, not impose extremes.


Why Other Options Are Wrong:

I and II impose unjustified directives on fashion; the statement never asked to change appearance-related behaviour.


Common Pitfalls:

Reading “important to develop within” as “ignore appearances,” which is not stated.
