Discussion
Read the given statements and conclusions carefully. Assuming that the information given in the statements is true, even if it appears to be at variance with commonly known facts, decide which of the given conclusions logically follow(s) from the statements. Statements: I) Some novels are comics. II) Some comics are storybooks. III) All storybooks are textbooks. Conclusions: I) Some storybooks are comics. II) Some textbooks are novels. III) Some textbooks are comics.
Answer: C
Conclusions I and III follow. Statement II says some comics are storybooks, and reading it the other way round, some storybooks are comics, which is conclusion I. Since all storybooks are textbooks, the storybooks that are comics are textbooks, so some textbooks are comics, which is conclusion III.
Conclusion II, some textbooks are novels, would need a link between novels and storybooks. Novels are linked only to comics, and only some of them, so it does not follow.
