Statement:
Black cloud follows thunder; rains follow thunder. Conclusions:
I. Thunder is the cause of rain.
II. Black cloud is the cause of thunder.
Answer: Option 3
There is no relation shown between black clouds and rain in the question statements. Just because the black clouds follow thunder we cannot say that the black clouds cause thunder and this applies to rain and thunder too. Hence both the conclusions are rejected.
Statement:
The secret of success is constancy of purpose. Conclusions:
I. Constant dripping wears the stone.
II. Single-minded devotion is necessary for achieving success.
Answer: Option 2
The second conclusion is strong as constancy of purpose would involve single minded devotion. 1st conclusion is overtly philosophical and lacks proper relation to the question statement, therefore rejected.
