Q:

Fact 1: All hats have brims.
Fact 2: There are black hats and blue hats.
Fact 3: Baseball caps are hats.

If the first three statements are facts, which of the following statements must also be a fact?
I. All caps have brims.
II. Some baseball caps are blue.
III. Baseball caps have no brims.

A) I only B) II only
C) I, II, and III D) None of the statements is a fact.
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) None of the statements is a fact.

Explanation:

All baseball caps have brims, since baseball caps are hats (Fact 3) and all hats have brims (Fact 1). This rules out statement III—but it doesn’t follow that all caps, a category that may include caps that are not baseball caps, have brims (statement I). Statement II cannot be confirmed, either, since it is possible, given the information, that all baseball caps are black.

Q:

The Summary Settlement of 1856 was based on which one of the following assumptions?

 

A) The Talukdars were the rightful owners of the land B) The Talukdars were interlopers with no permanent stakes in the land.
C) The Talukdars could evict the peasants from the lands D) The Talukdars would take a portion of the revenue which flowed to the State
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) The Talukdars were interlopers with no permanent stakes in the land.

Explanation:

The British land revenue policy further undermined the position and authority of the taluqdars. After annexation, the first British revenue settlement, known as the Summary Settlement of 1856, was based on the assumption that the taluqdars were interlopers with no permanent stakes in land: they had established their hold over land through force and fraud.
