Revelian Test Verbal Logical Reasoning 5

Question 1

Passage: 'No applicants without a degree were shortlisted. Priya was shortlisted.' What can be concluded about Priya?

Accepted Answer

Priya has a degree.

Answer

Since only applicants with degrees were shortlisted and Priya was shortlisted, she must have a degree.

Question 2

Some athletes are vegetarians. Some vegetarians are marathon runners. Which conclusion MUST be true?

Accepted Answer

No conclusion about athletes and marathon runners can be drawn.

Answer

The two 'some' statements share vegetarians as a bridge but do not guarantee any overlap between athletes and marathon runners.

Question 3

A policy states: 'Refunds are granted only when the product is returned within 30 days.' A customer returns a product on day 45. Which conclusion is correct?

Accepted Answer

The customer is not entitled to a refund under this policy.

Answer

The policy grants refunds only within 30 days; day 45 exceeds that window, so no refund is due under the stated terms.

Question 4

Which option correctly identifies the logical flaw: 'Our new diet supplement must work — thousands of satisfied customers say so.'

Accepted Answer

Appeal to popularity

Answer

Arguing that something works because many people believe it works is an appeal to popularity (ad populum).

Passage: 'Every manager in the division received a bonus. No bonus was given to anyone who missed their targets.' Alex is a manager in the division. What follows?

Accepted Answer

Alex met their targets.

Answer

Alex received a bonus (as a division manager), and since bonuses require meeting targets, Alex must have met them.
