Direction: In each of the question below are three statements following by three conclusions numbered I, II and III. You have to take the three given statements to be true even if they seem to be at variance with commonly known facts and then decide which of the given conclusion logically follows from the two statements disregarding commonly known fact.

  1. Statement:
    All buildings are mirrors. Some mirrors are pens. No pen is paper.
    Conclusions:
    I. Some papers are buildings.
    II. Some pens are buildings.
    III. Some papers are mirrors.
    1. None follow
    2. Only I follow
    3. Only II follow
    4. Only III follow
    5. Only II and III follow
Correct Option: A

Some mirrors are pens + No pen is paper = 1 + E = O* = Some mirrors are not papers Hence III does not follow. All buildings are mirrors + Some mirrors are pens = A + I = No conclusion Hence II and consequently I do not follow.
