Study the following statements :

(a) The writer approves of the conduct of Delhi people.
(b) Indian mynas are generally known for their noisy quarrels.
(c) A myna couple can also be found enjoying themselves.

  • A.(a) and (b) are right but (c) is wrong.
  • B.(b) and (c) are right but (a) is wrong.
  • C.(a) and (c) are right but (b) is wrong.
  • D.(a) and (b) are wrong but (c) is right.

Answer: B

Statements (b) and (c) are right and (a) is wrong, which is option (2).

(b) The writer says mynas remind him of people who are 'always ready to argue and pick a fight, belligerent and in your face'. (c) A pair on the window sill in the afternoons hold 'meaningful civilised conversations' with affection in their voices, so a myna couple can be found enjoying themselves.

(a) is wrong: the writer is comparing the mynas to Delhi people to describe them as quarrelsome, and goes on to say they taught him not to make sweeping generalisations. He does not approve of that conduct.
