Lorena is fairer than Crizelda. Crizelda is fairer than Marian. Therefore,


_________.

Lorena is fairer than Marian

Crizelda is fairer than Lorena

Marian is fairer than Crizelda

Marian is the fairest among them

Correct

Choice 2 can be eliminated because the statement says " Lorena is fairer than
Crizelda". Choice 3 is wrong since Crizelda is fairer than Marian. Also, Marian
cannot be the fairest among the three since Crizelda is fairer than Marian is.
Therefore, the correct answer is choice 1. Since Lorena is fairer than Crizelda and
Crizelda is fairer than Marian, it follows that Lorena is fairer than Marian.

_________.

Mel is diligent.  

When they heard news of the typhoon, Maya and Julian decided to change
their vacation plans. Instead of traveling to the island beach resort, they
booked a room at a fancy new spa in the mountains. Their plans were a bit
more expensive, but they'd heard wonderful things about the spa and they
were relieved to nd availability on such short notice.

Maya and Julian take beach vacations every year.

The spa is overpriced.

It is usually necessary to book at least six months in advance at the spa.

Maya and Julian decided to change their vacation plans because of the hurricane.

Correct

The rst sentence makes this statement true. There is no support for choice a.
The passage tells us that the spa vacation is more expensive than the island
beach resort vacation, but that doesn't necessarily mean that the spa is
overpriced; therefore, choice b cannot be supported. And even though the
paragraph says that the couple was relieved to nd a room on short notice,
there is no information to support choice c, which says that it is usually
necessary to book at the spa at least six months in advance.


There are eight poets, namely, A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H in respect of whom

questions are being asked in the examination. The rst four are ancient
poets and the last four are modern poets. The question on ancient and
modern poets is being asked in alternate years. Those who like H also like G,
those who like D like C also. The examiner who sets question is not likely to
ask question on D because he has written an article on him. But he likes D.
Last year a question was asked on F. Considering these facts, on whom the
question is most likely to be asked this year ?

then, is 251. 

Because the rst two sentences are true, both Josh and Darren saw more
movies than Stephen. However, it is uncertain as to whether Darren saw more
movies than Josh.

There are fewer oranges than either apples or lemons, so the statement is true. 

Easy method: (Try this method to solve without any confusion) 

1. A fruit basket contains more apples than lemons = App > Lem 

2. There are more lemons in the basket than there are oranges = Lem > Org 

Now, Combine the above two results: App > Lem > Org 

3. The basket contains more apples than oranges (App > ... > Org) = Yes.

given statement?

if a person is not a beggar, it does not necessarily follow that a person is rich.
Thus, the correct answer is choice 1.

Cyril plays basketball.
