Statements: A man must be wise to be a good wrangler. Good wranglers are talkative and boring.

Conclusions:

1. All the wise persons are boring.

2. All the wise persons are good wranglers

  • A.Only conclusion I follows
  • B.Only conclusion II follows
  • C.Either I or II follows
  • D.Neither I nor II follows
  • E.Both I and II follow

Answer: D

Correct answer: Neither I nor II follows

Being wise is a necessary condition for being a good wrangler, not a sufficient one - so nothing follows about wise people in general. Conclusion I would need all the wise to be wranglers before their being boring followed, and conclusion II asserts exactly that, which the statement does not. Neither follows.
