Correct Answer: Both conclusions I and II follow


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

Let's analyse the conclusions –
Conclusion (I): Some shoes are snow – From the Venn diagram, it is evident that the circles representing shoes and snow overlap and have some parts of their area in common. So, it can be concluded that some shoes are snow. Thus, this conclusion follows.
Conclusion (II): Some snow is songs – From the Venn diagram, it is evident that the circles representing snow and songs overlap and have some parts of their area in common. So, it can be concluded that some snow is songs.

So, both conclusions I and II follow. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
