• A. If the inference is 'definitely true', i.e. it properly follows from the statement of facts given
• B. If the inference is 'probably true' though not 'definitely true' in the light of the facts given.
• C. If the 'data are inadequate', i.e. from the facts given you cannot say whether the inference is likely to be true or false.
• D. If the inference is 'probably false' though not 'definitely false' in the light of the facts given
• E. If the inference is 'definitely false', i.e. it cannot possibly be drawn from the facts given or it contradicts
  the given facts.

Answer 1

The correct option is C If the 'data are inadequate', i.e. from the facts given you cannot say whether the inference is likely to be true or false.

The passage does not provide any data of import so comparison is not possible. We cannot reach a conclusion as there is inadequate data. Thus C is the answer.
