Each question has a set of four sequentially ordered statements. Each statement can be classified as one of the following:
• Facts (F), which deal with the pieces of information that one has heard, seen or read, and which are open to discovery or verification.
• Inferences (I), which are conclusions drawn about unknown, on the basis of the known.
• Judgments (J), which are opinions that imply approval or disapproval of persons, objects, situations and occurrences in the past, the present or the future.
Select the answer option that best describes the set of four statements:
(A) Many of the varieties of arrogance and know-it-allness are left under the interacting scrutiny of scholars who were encouraged to enlarge their understanding of real problems.
(B) Several of the patterns of impatience and impulsiveness seem modified in a situation in which each man knows that it is better to be sure, than sorry he opened his mouth too soon.
(C) Irving Lee often said that general semantics is not something that happens to you-it is something you do. It's an operational discipline, it's something you perform.
(D) Since Jane was at the game, she would have seen the runback on the opening kick-off.
