| Two statements are given followed by four inferences. Select the alternative which is most appropriate. [SSC (CGL) 2011] |
| Statements |
| India is becoming industrialised. |
| Pollution is a problem associated with industrialisation. |
| Inferences |
| I. All industrial centres are polluted. |
| II. India is polluted. |
| III. Polluted nations are industrialised. |
| IV. India may become polluted. |
A) All are appropriate
B) None is appropriate
C) Only IV is appropriate
D) Only II is appropriate
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
| From a general statement, we cannot derive definite conclusion. Therefore, we cannot definitely say that all industrial centres are polluted and whether India is polluted or not. |
| We also cannot say that polluted nations are industrialised because there may be many other factors responsible for pollution. As, pollution is problem associated within dustrialisation, India may become polluted. |
| Hence, only inference IV is appropriate. |
