Direction: In each question a sentence is given followed by a blank. You are provided with three fragments I, II and III. You have to identify which statement/statements can carry forward the given sentence in the most logical way so as to make the sentence coherent and contextually correct.
The amount of pension and rules vary on the basis of years of service of an employee and nature of retirement, _______________.
I. be it voluntary or after reaching age of superannuation, among others
II. i.e. it should be natural retirement only and not voluntary retirement
III. and the amount of hard work put by others during the career
Options
- ABoth II and III
- BBoth I and III
- CBoth I and II
- DOnly III
Correct answer
C. Both I and II
Step-by-step solution
Statement I will make sense in the context because here we are talking about the rules of pension for the employees. It may be that the retirement is voluntary or natural but it will not matter in this context. The amount of pension will not depend on that.
Statement II will also make sense here because here we are saying that the pension amount will depend only in case of natural retirement and not voluntary one. It may be a condition in some cases.
Statement III will not be correct, if placed in the blank, because it does not fit here. It can be eliminated from consideration.
This makes Option C the correct choice among the given options.
