Read the following paragraph and answer the question that follows:
Empirical observation told us years ago that goats were slowly becoming the new dog, and according to a new study, they are truly qualified to be man’s best friend. The Royal Society released heart-warming research showing that just like humans, goats have no desire to interact with people who come off as angry or upset, and that they’re much more attracted to those with big smiles plastered across their faces. When 12 males and 8 females were released into a pen decorated with images of happy and angry humans, the scientists learned that goats can “distinguish between happy and angry images of the same person,” and in general, they prefer their humans to be happy.
Which of the following statements is definitely true according to the passage?
Let's consider two instances from the passage, "they’re much more attracted to those with big smiles plastered across their faces" & "they prefer their humans to be happy".
We can infer from these that goats become happy when they are looking at a smiling person because naturally, they will be happy to see something they are attracted to.
Hence A is definitely true. But similar reactions based on emotions or situations cannot be clearly determined from the given passage.
