Question

Statement: The last date of submission for the project has been extended twice so far.
Conclusion:
1. No further extension is likely.
II. The previous submission date was unrealistic.

• A. Only I follows
• B. Only II follows
• C. Both I & II follow
• D. Neither I nor II follows

Hint:

When determining which conclusion follows from a statement, look for implied consequences or underlying assumptions, but avoid making unsupported claims.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Step 1: Understanding the question.
The statement talks about how the submission date for the project has been extended twice. We need to decide which conclusions logically follow from this statement.
Step 2: Analyzing the conclusions.
- Conclusion I: "No further extension is likely." This conclusion is not necessarily implied. The statement does not give us enough information to conclude that there will be no further extensions.
- Conclusion II: "The previous submission date was unrealistic." This conclusion makes sense because the need for extensions suggests that the original deadline was unrealistic.
Step 3: Conclusion.
The correct answer is (B) Only II follows, as it is the only conclusion that logically follows from the given statement.
