In row I - A, B, C and D are seated and all of them are facing south.
In row II - V, X, Y and Z are seated and all of them are facing north.
B is the only neighbour of A and A sits exactly opposite Y. V sits at the extreme left end of their row and is exactly opposite C. D sits to the immediate left of C and exactly opposite X.
Who sits at the immediate left of Y?
Seating Arrangement Setup
Eight people are seated in two parallel rows, with 4 people in each row. Row I has A, B, C, D facing South. Row II has V, X, Y, Z facing North. Positions are numbered 1 to 4 from left to right in each row.
Deduce Initial Positions
Clue: V sits at the extreme left end of their row (Row II) and is exactly opposite C. Deduction: V is at position 1 in Row II. C is at position 1 in Row I.
Clue: D sits to the immediate left of C and exactly opposite X. Deduction: As C faces South, C's immediate left corresponds to position 2. Thus, D is at position 2 in Row I. X is opposite D, placing X at position 2 in Row II.
Current Arrangement: Row I (South): C (1), D (2), _, _. Row II (North): V (1), X (2), _, _.
Determine Remaining Seats
Clue: B is the only neighbour of A. This implies A must be at an end position (1 or 4). Clue: A sits exactly opposite Y. Analysis: If A were at position 3 in Row I, its neighbours would be D (position 2) and the person at position 4. This contradicts the clue that B is A's *only* neighbour. Deduction: Therefore, A must be at position 4 in Row I. B must be at position 3 in Row I, making B A's only neighbour. Deduction: Since A is at position 4 in Row I, Y is opposite A, placing Y at position 4 in Row II. Final Placement: The remaining person, Z, fills the last spot at position 3 in Row II.
Final Arrangement: Row I (South): C (1), D (2), B (3), A (4). Row II (North): V (1), X (2), Z (3), Y (4).
Identify Y's Left Neighbor
Question: Who sits at the immediate left of Y? Analysis: Y is in Row II, facing North. The person to Y's immediate left is the person occupying the seat adjacent to Y on the left side within Row II. Conclusion: Based on the final arrangement (V, X, Z, Y), Z is at position 3, immediately to the left of Y (position 4).

Select the correct answer using the code given below:
There are seven persons up on a ladder, A, B, C, D, E, F and G (not in that order). A is further up than E but is lower than C. B is in the middle. G is between A and B. E is between B and F. If F is between E and D, the person on the bottom step of the ladder will be
Consider that:
1. A is taller than B.
2. C is taller than A.
3. D is taller than C.
4. E is the tallest of all.
If they are made to sit in the above order of their height, who will occupy the mid position?
Four children are sitting in a row. A is occupying the seat next to B but not next to C. If C is not sitting next to D, who is/are occupying seat/seats adjacent to D?
A question paper must have a question on one of the eight poets: A, B, C, D, E, F, G or H The first four belong to the medieval period while the rest are considered modern poets Generally, modern poets figure in the question paper in alternate years. Generally those who like H like G also; and those who like F like E also. The paper-setter does not like to ask about F as he has written a book on F, but he likes F. Last year, the paper contained a question on A.
On the basis of the information given, this year's paper is most likely to contain a question on
