A
Nick could have been bitten by a bee which did not carry the microbe A, on February 6. Thus, statement I could be true. The only possibility of exposure Nick had to the microbe A was with Jack. Thus, statement II is not true. Nick could not have also worked with Jack on February 6, as if he had, that would have constituted another possible exposure to disease A, not mentioned in the five statements. Thus, statement III is not true.
E
To complete the passage, we need a phrase which will nullify the claim that individuals are never willing to help one another. Among the five options given, only choice E is the most appropriate. Both choice A and C state the opposite of what we are actually require. Choice B seem to fit but does not fit as well as E in its tone. Choice D is completely irrelevant.

A
All through the passage the author has elucidated on the theme of selfishness as a major evil. Choice A states that Altruism - i.e. extreme unselfishness - is society’s greatest strength. This clearly contradicts the author’s point. Hence it is A which is the correct answer. Choices B and E are philosophical maxims that don’t become relevant here. Choices C and D are not contradicted by the passage and thus may be discarded.
D
Words lacking precision can be meaningful. Partial baldness or having hair, complete baldness and having one hair are all the same when it comes to understanding the sentence (beginning of passage) that our words are meaningless and cannot be distinguished from their opposites. This has been proved by an example. So it answers the question asked. D can counter the argument above. All other choices A, B, C and E are all irrelevant to the context in question.
D
Starvation of the gnat larvae as a result of overpopulation can result in the killing of gnat larvae population by the virus M. The choices A, B, C are irrelevant. Choice E is jumbled up with words and meaning, it does not answer the question asked.
B
Choices A, C, D and E must all be true. The sum total of any B + B must have an even number.
For example : BOPB - 6986
S K B - 476
C V B Q - 7462
The above representation fulfills all the requirements except B which states that A should be less than 5.
