Read the following information and answer the question which follows.
"Like seasoned gardeners, Gardener G practices crop rotation to maintain soil fertility, leading to thriving and diverse plant growth."
Which of the following can be inferred from the given statement? (An inference is something which is not directly stated but can be derived from the given facts/information in the statement)
1) The thriving and diverse plant growth in Gardener G's garden is likely influenced by the practice of crop rotation.
2) Gardener G is consulted by other gardeners in the area for best gardening practices.
1.Only (II) can be inferred
2.Neither (I) nor (II) can be inferred
3.Only (I) can be inferred
4.Both (I) and (II) can be inferred
Correct Answer : 3
Solution :
Only 1 is the correct inference. It logically follows from the statement that Gardener G's use of crop rotation helps maintain soil fertility, which results in thriving, diverse plant growth. This link between method and outcome is clear. Only 2, however, cannot be inferred since the statement does not mention anything about other gardeners or consultations - it adds information not present in the original text.
So, only (I) can be inferred.
Thus, option 3 is the correct answer.
