Some Traditions are not Cultures. In the question below there are four statements followed by three conclusions I, II and III. You have to take the four given statements to be true even if they seem to be at variance from commonly known facts and then decide which of the given conclusions logically follows from the given statements disregarding commonly known facts.
    A Only conclusions I and III follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Only conclusions II and III follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Only conclusion III follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Only conclusions I and II follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of the conclusions follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Some Traditions are Creeds (I) + All Creeds are Cultures (A) → Some Traditions are Cultures (I).  Hence conclusion I follows but conclusion III does not follow. A few Cultures are Castes (I) + [No Value is Castes (E) → conversion] → No Castes is Value (E) → Some Cultures are not Values (O). Hence conclusion II follows.
