A	If he doesn’t end up in the dispensary with tummy ache, then he did not finish his homework or the school closed late.
B	If he doesn’t end up in the dispensary with tummy ache, he didn’t eat ice cream and he didn’t play in the park.

Question 1 Explanation:

(a) is not possible, because Vinay can finish his homework, the school can close early, and he plays in the park without eating icecream. In this case he will not end up in the dispensary, but neither of the conclusions in (a) can be inferred. (b) is not possible, again because Vinay can play in the park without eating icecream, or eat icecream without playing in the park. In both cases, he does not end up in the dispensary. So one cannot infer the conjunction of the two conclusions in (b). Hence the correct answer is (d).
