    Question

    Given below is a statement followed by some

    conclusions. You have to take the given statement to be true even if it seems to be at variance with the commonly known facts and then decide which of the given conclusions logically follow(s) from the given statement. Statement: All hard-working people are successful. Conclusions: I. All successful people are hard-working. II. Only hard work can guarantee success in life. Decide the right option from below.
    A Only conclusion I follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Only conclusion II follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Both I and II follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Neither of them follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    I. All successful people are hard-working. This conclusion is not necessarily true based on the given statement. While it is true that all hard-working people are successful according to the statement, it does not mean that every successful person is hard-working. There could be successful people who achieved success through means other than hard work. So, conclusion I does not necessarily follow. II. Only hard work can guarantee success in life. This conclusion is not supported by the given statement. The statement simply states that all hard-working people are successful, but it does not imply that success can only be guaranteed through hard work. There could be other factors such as luck, opportunity, talent, etc., that contribute to success. So, conclusion II does not necessarily follow. Therefore, the correct option is: D. Neither of them follows
