It would be unsafe for fishermen to venture out into the sea today, till the cyclone passes.Solution
The statement clearly mentions that the power supply is likely to be affected from 2 p.m. to 9 p.m., which includes the time after 3 p.m.. Since power cuts are expected during this period, this conclusion logically follows. Conclusion I follows. The statement says that rough seas, heavy rain, and strong winds will start from 11 a.m. onward. Since these conditions are dangerous for fishermen, it is reasonable to conclude that it would be unsafe for them to go out into the sea. Even though the statement doesn't explicitly mention fishermen, common sense and logical reasoning support this conclusion. Â Conclusion II follows. Option 2: Both conclusions I and II follow.
