Statement : Money plays a vital role in politics.

Conclusions:
I. The poor can never become politicians.
II. All the rich men take part in politics.

  • A.Only conclusion I follows
  • B.Only conclusion II follows
  • C.Either I or II follows
  • D.Neither I nor II follows
  • E.Both I and II follow

Answer: D

Correct answer: Neither I nor II follows

Money plays a vital role says money matters. It does not say money is the only thing that matters, nor that everyone with money uses it this way.

  • I - does not follow. Never is far stronger than vital role. An important factor is not an absolute barrier.
  • II - does not follow. That money helps in politics is no reason to think all rich men enter politics.

Both conclusions fail on the same fault: replacing a statement of degree with an absolute.
