Some Chinese scientists are working in Japan. Conclusions: I. No Chinese scientist is talented. II. Some talented Chinese scientists are working in Japan. III. All talented scientists are Japanese. IV. Some Chinese scientists are talented. Correct Answer Only conclusion II and IV follow.

Conclusion II: This follow, because it is mentioned in the second statement that some Chinese scientists are also working in Japan.
Conclusion III: This does not follow, because it is not mentioned in the statement that only Japanese are talented.
