    Question

    Read the given statements and conclusions carefully.

    Decide which of the given conclusions is true based the given statements. Statement: Dhoni is blessed with natural ability, no doubt, but even he had to practice hard to excel in his field. Conclusion: I.  Natural ability by itself may not guarantee excellence. II. Had Dhoni not practiced hard, he would not have excelled in his field.
    A Only Conclusion I is true Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Only Conclusion II is true Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Both Conclusion I and II are true Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Neither Conclusion I nor II is true Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    From the given statement, Conclusion I can be clearly inferred. The use of ‘may not’ makes this option particularly good as one cannot counter this argument. Conclusion II, on the other hand, is suspect. For all we know, Dhoni might have excelled in his field even had he not practiced hard. So, Conclusion II is not valid.   Hence, the correct answer is (A).
