Question
In the question given below, a passage is given
followed by three statements which may or may not be inferred from the passage. Select the correct combination of statements that can be inferred. In recent years, several fast-food chains have introduced plant-based menu options in response to the growing global demand for sustainable and ethical food choices. Environmental groups and consumers have praised these efforts, although some critics argue that the chains still rely heavily on environmentally harmful packaging and supply chains. Following this criticism, a few companies announced plans to adopt eco-friendly packaging and reduce their carbon footprint. Which of the following statements can be inferred from the passage? I. The introduction of plant-based menu options was influenced by environmental and ethical concerns. II. Fast-food chains are unwilling to make changes based on public criticism. III. Some fast-food chains are taking steps to make their operations more sustainable.Solution
Statement I can be inferred because the passage explicitly mentions that fast-food chains introduced plant-based options “in response to the growing global demand for sustainable and ethical food choices.” Statement II is incorrect because the passage says that some companies announced plans to adopt eco-friendly packaging after criticism, showing that they are willing to respond, not unwilling. Statement III can be inferred since companies plan to “adopt eco-friendly packaging and reduce their carbon footprint,” which are clear steps toward sustainability. Thus, the correct answer is C) Only I and III.
