Logical Reasoning Questions and Answers

Question 1

Although most of the fastest growing jobs in today's economy will require a college degree, many of the new jobs being created-from home health aide to desktop publisher-require knowledge other than that gained from earning a degree. For workers in those jobs, good basic skills in reading, communication, and mathematics play an important role in getting a job and developing a career.

      From the information given above it can be validly concluded that, in today's economy,

      A)  skills in reading, communication, and mathematics play an important role in developing a career as a desktop publisher

      B)  the majority of the new jobs being created require knowledge other than that gained from earning a college degree

      C)  a job as a home health aide will rely more on communication skills than on basic skills in reading and mathematics

      D)  if a job is one of the fastest growing jobs, it will require a college degree

      E)  desktop publisher jobs and home health aide jobs are not among the fastest growing jobs

       

Which letter corresponds to the correct response? ________
Question 2

According to the National Agricultural Aviation Society (NAAS), without the use of crop protection products to control insects, weeds, and diseases, crop yields per acre will drop by more than 50 percent. The first aerial application of insecticide occurred in 1921, and it was a huge success. By contrast, in today's economy all aircraft that are classified as aerial applicators do more than just apply insecticide; today, they also spread seed and apply fertilizer.

      From the information given above it CANNOT be validly concluded that

      A)  in today's economy, if an aerial applicator is used, then it will be able to spread seed and to apply fertilizer

      B)  according to the NAAS, if crop yields per acre never drop by more than 50 percent, then crop protection products have been used to control insects, weeds, and diseases

      C)  in today's economy, any aircraft that cannot be used to apply fertilizer cannot be classified as an aerial applicator

      D)  in 1921, if an aircraft was used for the application of insecticide, then it was not also used to spread seed

      E)  according to the NAAS, if crop yields per acre drop by more than 50 percent, then crop protection products have not been used to control insects, weeds, and diseases.

      From the information given above, it can be validly concluded that

      A)  there are at least some industries run entirely by self-employed industrialists that are underground industries

      B)  no industries that are run entirely by self-employed industrialists operate underground

      C)  there are at least some industries other than those run entirely by self-employed industrialists that are underground industries
