If some pens are pencils but no pencil is sharpener then (A) Some pencils are…

Given: Some pens are pencils. No pencil is sharpener.

• Some pens are pencils (there exists at least one object that is both a pen and a pencil).

• No pencil is sharpener (no object is both a pencil and a sharpener).

Inferences:

• From "Some pens are pencils" we can conclude "Some pencils are pens" because existence is symmetric: if there is an object that is both a pen and a pencil, that same object is a pencil that is a pen.

• Given that no pencil is a sharpener, the pen that is also a pencil cannot be a sharpener. Hence there exists at least one pen that is not a sharpener, so "Some pens are not sharpener" holds.

• The statement "Some sharpeners are pencils" cannot be true because it contradicts the premise that no pencil is a sharpener.

• The statement "Some pencils are not pens" is not guaranteed by the premises. It might be true in some cases, but it is also possible that every pencil is a pen, so we cannot conclude it necessarily.

Conclusion: The two statements that necessarily follow from the premises are "Some pencils are pens" and "Some pens are not sharpener". Therefore the correct combination is AC.
