Direction: In each question below is given a statement followed by two conclusions numbered I and II. You have to assume everything in the statement to be true, then consider the two conclusions together and decide which of them logically follows beyond a reasonable doubt from the information given in the statement. Give answer

  1. Statement:
    '' I do not think like an old man. but how long can I go on deceiving myself?''_Mr 'X'
    Conclusions :
    I. The harsh reality of words has power to hit an individual.
    II. Mr 'X' is an old man.
    1. if only conclusion I follows
    2. if only conclusion II follows
    3. if either I or II follows
    4. if neither I nor II follows, and
    5. if both I and II follow
Correct Option: B

We do not have complete idea regarding the context of the statement made by the speaker. Hence, I can' t be correlated with the statement. II follows from the tone of the statement. Why will a young person deliver such a statement?
