DIRECTIONS for questions: Each question consists of five statements followed by options consisting of three statements put together in a specific order. Choose the option which indicates a valid argument, that is, where the third statement is a conclusion drawn from the preceding two statements. Example:

D. Some traffic congestion does not cause increased carbon monoxide.
E. Some traffic congestion is not hazardous to health.
Option A: Traffic congestion and increase in carbon monoxide are hazardous to health. But, we cannot infer that one is a result of other. Hence, option A is wrong.
Option B: Option B is wrong because the traffic congestion that does not cause increased carbon monoxide might cause some thing else that is hazardous to health.
Option C: C and D are not related. So, we cannot infer E.
