Statement: The ministry has forecasted floods in city A. Courses of action: I. People should move to city B. II. People should preserve necessities. Which course(s) of action should be followed?

Only I
Only II
Either I or II
Neither I nor II

Correct answer: Only II

A flood forecast calls for preparedness, not an arbitrary shift to another city. Preserving necessities is a sensible precaution, while moving people to city B is not justified by the statement alone.
