In the following question, a statement/group of statements is given followed by some conclusions. Without resolving anything yourself, choose the conclusion which logically follows from the statement(s).

Most celebrities like Amar are liars.

  • A.Amar is a celebrity.
  • B.Those who do not tell lies are not celebrities.
  • C.Some celebrities do not tell lies.
  • D.You can only become a celebrity by telling lies.

Answer: A

Correct answer: Amar is a celebrity.

The phrase “celebrities like Amar” presupposes that Amar belongs to the class of celebrities; that presupposition is what can be drawn out, and nothing more. Whether Amar is a liar is left open, since the statement says only most. The remaining options invert the relation, making truthfulness disqualify a person from celebrity or lying a route into it.
