Difficulty: Easy
Correct Answer: Only I and III
Explanation:
Introduction / Context:This is a standard coded language problem. We must find which statements are sufficient to identify the specific code token that stands for the English word 'come'.
Given Data / Assumptions:
Concept / Approach:Use set intersection on both the code tokens and the English words. The only common English word between statements I and III is 'come'. Therefore, the shared code token in I and III must represent 'come'.
Step-by-Step Solution:
Code tokens in I: {pit, na, tac}; words in I: {come, and, go}.Code tokens in III: {na, da, rac}; words in III: {you, can, come}.Common English word: 'come'. Common code token: 'na'.Thus, 'na' ↔ 'come' determined by I and III alone.Verification / Alternative check:II involves completely different words; it neither conflicts with nor aids the identification of 'na' as 'come'. The mapping remains consistent across both sentences containing 'come'.
Why Other Options Are Wrong:
Common Pitfalls:Assuming the order of words matches the order of code tokens; in data sufficiency, we only need the identity, not the positions.
Final Answer:Only I and III
