Question
In the following question, certain statements are given followed by two conclusions numbered I and II. Consider the statement(s) to be true even if they seem to be at variance from commonly known facts. Decide which one of the conclusions logically follows from the statement(s).
Statements: My brother sings very well. My sister is a basketball player. I am very intelligent.
Conclusions:
I. We all are very talented.
II. We all are sportsmen.
Choose the correct option:
Options
If only conclusion I follows
If either conclusion I or II follows
If only conclusion II follows
If neither conclusion I nor II follows

Solution
If neither conclusion I nor II follows
Talent means a special natural ability or aptitude: a talent for drawing.
From the statements given, we cannot come to the conclusion I and as only the sister is a basketball player, we cannot conclude that we all are a sportsman.
Hence neither conclusion follows.
