Given below are two statements. In the light of the statements, choose the correct answer.
Statement I:Conditioned words can be used to revive old emotions in irrelevant situations.
Statement II:Stereotypes do not have emotional colour related to the superiority feelings of upper-class groups.
ABoth Statement I and Statement II are true
BBoth Statement I and Statement II are false
CStatement I is true but Statement II is false ✓ Correct
DStatement I is false but Statement II is true
Correct answer: (C) Statement I is true but Statement II is false
Explanation
Here the first statement is true while the second is false.
Statement 1 is sound, since conditioned words really can revive old emotions in situations where those feelings no longer belong, carrying learned associations along.
A word tied to a past experience can trigger the same response even when the present context is irrelevant.
Statement 2 is false, because stereotypes clearly do carry emotional colour, often tied to the superiority feelings of upper-class groups.
Stereotyping loads perception with such charged, class-linked bias rather than staying emotionally neutral.
So one claim stands and the other collapses.
