In this question below is given a passage followed by several inferences. you have to examine each inference seperately in the context of the passage and decide upon its degree of truth or falsity. Mark your answr as :
(a) If the inference is definitely true i.e. it direclty follows from the facts given in the passage
(b) if the inference is probably true though out definitely true in the light of the facts given
(c] If you think the data are inadequate from the facts given you can not say whether the inference is likely to be true or false .
(d) If you think the inference is probably false though out definitely false in the light of the facts given
(e) If you think the inference is definitely false i.e. it contradicts the given facts
Pollution amount to slow murder . Regular exposure to industrial and vehicular pollution leads to life threatening disease like asthma heart problems cancer and various other disorders. Therefore no body has the right to pollute rich or poor. Industrial and vehicular pollution are growing rapidly across the country. It is not just metropolitan centres that are heavily polluted today but also small and medium towns. Pollution is growing faster than the economy . This is because the western technological model built on heavy use of energy and materials. is an inherently highly toxic model. It produces huge amount of toxic pollutants which can be controlled if there is careful choice of technology and there is considerable discipline in its use.
The smaller industrial units contribute proportionately higher pollution.

Options

A. If the inference is 'definitely true' i.e., it directly follows from the facts given in the passage
B. If the inference is 'probably true' though not definitely true in the light of the facts given
C. If you think the data are inadequate i.e., from the facts given you cannot say whether the interence is likely to be true or false.
D. If you think the inference is 'probably false' though not definitely false in the light of facts given

Answer

D

Explanation

The passage talks about heavy use of energy by industries producing huge amount of toxic pollutants, which are probably larger industrial units. So, proportionally smaller industries should produce lesser pollution. Hence the inference is probably false.
