Conclusion:
I. Some cups are spoons → False (As there is no direct relation given between cup and spoon so it will not follow.)
II. Some spoons are plates → True (As all plates are spoons, some spoons will definitely be the plates, so it will follow)
III. Some plates are spoons → True (As all plates are spoons given in statements, some plates are definitely spoons, so it will follow)
Hence, only conclusion II and III follow.
