Statement:

This is the first time two women have been awarded the Nobel prize in medicine.

Conclusions:

I. This is not the first time that Nobel prize has been awarded in medicine.

II. Women have been awarded the Nobel prize in economics.

III. Earlier, women have been awarded the Nobel prize in medicine.

  • A.Only I follows
  • B.Only II follows
  • C.Only I and III follow
  • D.Only II and III follow

Answer: C

Correct answer: Only I and III follow

If this is the first time two women have received the prize in medicine, then the prize has been awarded in medicine before - conclusion I - and the emphasis on the number implies that women had received it before, singly, which is conclusion III. Conclusion II concerns economics, a different prize altogether, on which the statement says nothing.
