    Question

    Students of all the departments of a college who have successfully completed the registration process are eligible to vote in the upcoming college elections. However, by the time the due date for registration was over, it was found that suprisingly none of the students from the Department of Human Sciences had completed the registration process.
    Based only on the information provided above, which one of the following sets of statement(s) can be logically inferred with certainty?
    (i) All those students who would not be eligible to vote in the college elections would certainly belong to the Department of Human Sciences.
    (ii) None of the students from departments other than Human Sciences failed to complete the registration process within the due time.
    (iii) All the eligible voters would certainly be students who are not from the Department of Human Sciences.

    Question

    Which one of the options does NOT describe the passage below or follow from it?
    We tend to think of cancer as a ‘modern’ illness because its metaphors are so modern. It is a disease of overproduction, of sudden growth, a growth that is unstoppable, tipped into the abyss of no control. Modern cell biology encourages us to imagine the cell as a molecular machine. Cancer is that machine unable to quench its intial command (to grow) and thus transform into an indestructible, self-propelled automaton.
