Difficulty: Medium
Correct Answer: Neither I nor II follows
Explanation:
Introduction / Context:The premises link the content of English movies (violent) with a viewer subset (some people like watching English movies). The conclusions, however, make claims about viewers' preferences for violence or the source of all violence-likers.
Given Data / Assumptions:
Concept / Approach:From 'All English movies are violent' we cannot infer anything about whether viewers like violence; they might watch for other reasons or dislike the violence yet still watch. Nor can we infer that all violence-likers watch English movies.
Step-by-Step Solution:
I) The premise is about movie content, not viewer preference; 'All viewers like violence' is unsupported.II) 'All violence-likers watch English movies' is an arbitrary universal connecting a preference group to a content class without evidence.Verification / Alternative check:Countermodels exist: viewers might enjoy plots despite violence; many who like violent content might prefer non-English media. Premises hold while both conclusions fail.
Why Other Options Are Wrong:Any option asserting I or II introduces unsupported generalizations about audiences.
Common Pitfalls:Confusing properties of content with viewers' attitudes; assuming causation or necessary preference from descriptive statements.
Final Answer:Neither I nor II follows.
