Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
CONCEPT
For a two-statement item, test each statement independently against the relevant date and the stated default. A historical platform limit is not automatically its later limit, and chronological order must be distinguished from reverse chronological order.
APPLICATION
Statement I: Twitter expanded the 140-character limit to 280 characters for most languages in November 2017. For a 2022 question, describing Twitter as allowing posts only up to 140 characters is therefore false.
Statement II: A standard blog feed displays posts in reverse chronological order, so the newest post appears first. An earliest-post-at-the-top order is not the default and is therefore false.
CROSS-CHECK / CONTRAST
Both statements true retains the old Twitter limit and reverses the usual blog-feed order.
Statement I true but Statement II false retains the old Twitter limit while identifying the blog-order issue.
Statement I false but Statement II true recognizes the changed Twitter limit but reverses the usual blog-feed order.
RESULT
Both Statement I and Statement II are false.
