Conclusions.
1. All parents these days are very well off.
II. Parents have an obsessive passion for a perfect development of their children through good schooling.

A

If only conclusion I follows.

B

If only conclusion II follows.

C

If either conclusion I or II follows.

D

If neither conclusion I nor II follows.

Answer

If only conclusion II follows.

Explanation

Solution

Conclusion I: The statement only says that parents are willing to pay a high price for education. It doesn't imply that all parents are well off. Being prepared to pay doesn't necessarily mean they are wealthy; some parents may make sacrifices or take loans to afford this education. Therefore, Conclusion I does not follow.
Conclusion II: The statement suggests that parents are ready to pay any price for elite education, which indicates a strong desire or obsession for ensuring their children's perfect development. Thus, Conclusion II logically follows from the statement.

The correct answer is (B) : If only conclusion II follows.
