7. Clearly, nothing about ' other things ' is mentioned in the statement. So, I does not follow,
Also, since it is mentioned that programmes and magazines for women are stuffed with
kitchenrecipesandotherhouseholdhints,itmeansthatwomenhavespecialinterestinthese
areas.So,IIfollows.
8. He correct inference is the statement that must be true if the information in the stimulus is
true. From the stimulus, we know that expanded and improved neighbourhood watch
programsreducecrime,andthatfundingandtrainingsupportfromthepolicedepartmentcan
help such programs expand and improve. Choice (D) logically follows: some police forces
have been able to reduce crime by increasing their support for neighbourhood watch
programs.
(A)is extreme; even if we interpret "high community involvement" to mean an effective
neighbourhood watch program, nothing in the stimulus tells us that such involvement will
guarantee a low crime rate. Choice (B) may very well be true, but it does not necessarily
followfromthestimulus,whichonlydiscussedhowpolicedepartmentsallocatetheirbudgets,
not whether their overall budget increases or decreases. (C) go too far; we only know that
somewatchprogramshavebeenimprovedbypoliceparticipation,notthatsuchparticipation
is the only way for neighbourhood watch programs to be successful or that retired police
officersrunthebestprograms.
