Logical Reasoning – Interpreting a proverb: The sentence "The old order changed, yielding place to new" leads to which conclusion(s)? (I) Change is the law of nature; (II) Discard old ideas solely because they are old.

Given data

• Premise: 'The old order changed, yielding place to new.'
• Conclusion I: Change is natural/inevitable.
• Conclusion II: Old ideas should be discarded because they are old.

Concept/Approach
The proverb asserts the inevitability of change, not a blanket prescription to reject all things old.

Step-by-step reasoning
• (I) is consistent: the assertion captures the general principle that change is a constant.• (II) introduces a fallacious reason (age alone) for discarding ideas; the premise does not advocate that.

Verification/Alternative
A system can evolve while retaining valuable old elements; the proverb does not prohibit that.

Common pitfalls

• Turning a descriptive maxim about change into a normative 'discard everything old' rule.

Final Answer
Only conclusion I follows.
