In the question below is given a statement followed by two conclusions numbered I and II. You have to decide which of the given conclusions logically follows from the statement assuming the given statement to be true. Statement: In school, students learn because they are able to understand what they are taught. Conclusions: I. The learning of students in school depends on their ability to learn. II. What students learn in school depends on how they are taught. Correct Answer Only I follows
The logic followed is:
Given statement: In school, students learn because they are able to understand what they are taught. From this, we can conclude that students have the ability to learn the things that they are taught in the school that's why they are learning.
Conclusions:
I. The learning of students in school depends on their ability to learn → True (It directly follows the statement).
So, the conclusion I follows.
II. What students learn in school depends on how they are taught → False (The given statement talks about the ability of the students to learn the things that they are taught. It has not said anything about how they are taught that's why they are understanding the things).
So, conclusion II does not follow.
Hence, the correct answer is "Only I follows".

- If there are two or more sentences that are used to frame a statement, then, the sentences must be interrelated, and mutual contradiction should be there.
- Do not look for truthful notions. The information provided in the statement is the only requirement for a student to answer the question. No assumptions must be made.
- Read the statement carefully and look for keywords that are common between the statement and the conclusions
- If there is more than one conclusion that is applicable to the statement, students must ensure that the conclusions they opt for have some relation with each other.
