    In each question below are given three statements followed by three conclusions numbered I, II and III. You have to take the two given statements to be true even if they seem to be at variance with commonly known facts and then decide which of the given conclusions logically follows from the two given statements, disregarding commonly known facts.

    D None follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
