No artist is a writer.
Conclusions:
I. Some artists are honest.
II. All engineer being artist is a possibility.

1).
No artist is a writer (E) + All writers are honest (A) = E + A = O* = Some honest are not artists. Hence, I does not follow. Again, All writers are honest (A) + No honest is an engineer (E) = A + E = E = No writer is an engineer +No artist is a writer (E) = E + E = No conclusion but the possibility in II exists. Hence II follows.
Answer: E)

2).Statements:

All trees are woods.
All woods are shrubs.
Conclusions:
I. All woods being plants is a possibility.
II. Some trees are shrubs.

2). Answer: D)
Some plants are trees (I) + All tress are woods (A) = I + A = I = Some plants are woods. Thus the possibility in I exists. Hence conclusion I follows. Again, All tress are woods (A) + All woods are shrubs (A) = A + A = A . All trees are shrubs  implication  Some trees are shrubs. Hence conclusion II follows

3).Statements:
All workers are honest.
Some honest are poor.
No poor is rich.

No window is a wall.
All walls are buildings.
Conclusions:
I. All windows being buildings is a possibility.
II. Some doors being not a wall is a possibility.

4). Answer: D)
No window is a wall (E) + All walls are buildings (A) = E + A = O* = Some buildings are not windows. Hence the possibility in I exists. Hence, conclusion I follows. Again, some doors are windows (I) + No window is a wall (E) = I + E = O = Some doors are not walls. Hence, the possibility in II exists. Hence, conclusion II follows

5).Statements:
some computers are tablets.
All laptops are computers.
No phone is a laptop.
Conclusions:
I. No laptop is a tablet.
II. All computers being tablets is a possibility.

5). Answer: E)
All laptops are computers (A) + Some computers are tablets (I) = A + I = No conclusion. Hence, conclusion I does not follow. Again, from statement first the possibility in II exists. Hence conclusion II follows.
