In each question below is given a statement followed by two courses of action numbered I and II. You have to assume everything in the statement to be true and on the basis of the information given in the statement, decide which of the suggested courses of action logically follow(s) for pursuing.
Statement: Students are found spending too much time on video games.
Course of Action I: Ban mobile games.
Course of Action II: Encourage students to engage in outdoor activities.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
Course of action I: Ban mobile games
This is too extreme and impractical. It is unreasonable to completely ban
mobile games for everyone.
Course of action II: Encourage students to engage in outdoor activities
II follows because encouraging outdoor activities gives students a healthy alternative, which can reduce the time spent on video games.
Only II follows.
Therefore, option (2) is the correct.
