प्रश्न
In the questions, a statement is followed by two conclusions (a) and (b). You have to assume everything in the statement to be true, and consider both the conclusions together, and then decide which of the two given conclusions logically follow beyond a reasonable doubt from the information given in the statement.
Statement: The greatest advantage of democracy over all other forms of governments is not that the men who have gone to the top are exceptionally wise, but that since their power depends upon popular support, they know that they cannot retain their position if they are guilty of more than a modicum of injustice.
Conclusion:
(a) In a democracy, persons in power cannot act arbitrarily
(b) Democratic countries cannot have excellent leaders.
विकल्प
if only conclusion (a) follows.
if only conclusion (b) follows.
If either (a) or (b) follows.
If neither (a) nor (b) follows.
उत्तर
if only conclusion (a) follows.
Explanation:
The passage talks of top men depending upon popular support to exercise their power. This, in a way, means that their actions are closely watched by the public and so they cannot behave as they like. Thus, the conclusion I definitely follows. conclusion II is a far-fetched statement and thus, does not follow.
