Two statements are given followed by two conclusions numbered I and II. Assuming the statements to be true, even if they seem to be at variance with commonly known facts, decide which of the conclusions logically follow(s) from the statements. Statements: Some clothes are curtains. All curtains are fibres. Conclusions: I. Some fibers are clothes. II. No fibre is a cloth.

Conclusions:
I. Some fibers are clothes → True (As All curtains are fibres and Some clothes are curtains so, Some fibers are clothes is true)
II. No fibre is a cloth → False (As All curtains are fibres and Some clothes are curtains so, No fibre is a cloth is false)
∴ Here, Only conclusion I is true.
Hence, the correct answer is "Only conclusion I follows".
