Direction: Read the following information and answer the question.
Five experts on Nano-technology involved in an International Research Project hold a Quarterly Review Meeting in Singapore. There are certain limitations on their language skills. Expert R1 knows only Japanese and Hindi; R2 is good at Japanese and English; R3 is good at English and Hindi; R4 knows French and Japanese quite well; and R5, an Indian, knows Hindi, English and French.

Besides R5, which of the following can converse with R4 without an interpreter?
  1. Only R1
  2. Only R2
  3. Only R3
  4. Both R1 & R2

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: D - Both R1 & R2
R4 speaks French and Japanese. R1 (Japanese, Hindi) and R2 (Japanese, English) share Japanese with R4; R3 (English, Hindi) shares nothing. So both R1 and R2 can talk to R4.
