Discussion
In the question below is given a statement followed by two conclusions numbered I and II.
Give answer
(A) If only I follows
(B) If only II follows
(C) If either I or II follows
(D) If neither I nor II follows
(E) If both I and II follow.
Statement - A hypochondriac is a non-stupid person who behaves stupidly.
Conclusions -
I. Hypochondriasis and stupidity occur together.
II. Normal person does not behave intelligently.
Answer: D
Correct answer: Neither I nor II follows
The statement defines a hypochondriac as someone who is not stupid yet behaves stupidly, which separates the two rather than joining them, so conclusion I contradicts the definition. Conclusion II makes a claim about normal people, who are not mentioned at all - the statement describes one particular kind of person and says nothing about anybody else.
