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.

Which of the following can act as an interpreter when R3 & R4 wish to discuss?
  1. Only R1
  2. Only R2
  3. Only R5
  4. R1, R2 and R5

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: D - R1, R2 and R5
An interpreter for R3 (English/Hindi) and R4 (French/Japanese) needs one language from each side. R1 (Hindi + Japanese), R2 (English + Japanese) and R5 (Hindi/English + French) all qualify, so R1, R2 and R5 can each interpret.
