Question : Directions: Consider the given statement to be true, even if it seems to be at variance from commonly known facts. You have to decide which of the following conclusions or assumptions be drawn from the given statement.
Statement:
If he works hard, he will be successful in life.
Conclusions:
I. He is a hard worker.
II. Hard work pays.
Option 1: Both I and II follow
Option 2: Only I follows
Option 3: Only II follows
Option 4: Neither I nor II follows
Correct Answer: Only II follows
Solution :
Let's analyse the conclusions –
Conclusion I:
He is a hard worker.
This statement says that success can be achieved only through hard work but it does not mean that every hard-working people is successful. Hence, this conclusion does not follow the above-given statement.
Conclusion II:
Hard work pays.
The above statement states that every successful person is definitely hard-working and hard work always gives success in life. Hence, this conclusion follows the above statement.
So, only conclusion II follows. Hence, the third option is correct.
