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:
    ''The good news is the shows have been postponed, not cancelled. The bad news is the disappointment of fans and the thousands of pounds lost.''
    ---Criticism made by Mr X. when two mega Bollywood shows were declared postponed.
    Conclusions :
    I. Thousand of viewers were preparing to watch the giant shows.
    II.The shows are to be organised in the UK.
    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: D

The statement does not say about the number of viewers or the ticket rates. Hence I does not follow. Losts of thousands of pounds does not imply that the shows are to be organised in the UK. It may be Jamaica, Lebanon, Egypt etc because these are the countries where pound is the currency used.
