Correct Answer: Neither conclusion I nor conclusion II follows


Solution : The possible Venn diagram according to the given statements is as follows –


Let's analyse the conclusions –
Conclusion (I): No girls are superstitious – The statements only mention young girls. None of the statements contain any information about girls. So, this conclusion does not follow.
Conclusion (II): No young men are superstitious – The statements only mention modern men. None of the statements contain any information about young men. So, this conclusion does not follow.

So, neither conclusion I nor conclusion II follows. Hence, the third option is correct.
