An advertisement states: Like Danaxil, all headache pills can stop you

The ad says "Danaxil is for you-no headache pill stops pain more quickly" i.e its about how quickly Danaxil works on the headache pain.
But Option C is talking about headache not the headache pain. How quickly it stops headache is not mentioned anywhere in the passage I believe.

It does a great job explaining it. I can go further if you still have questions.

But, quickly, a headache is pain. If you relieve the pain, the headache is gone. In this case, although a great catch by you, you can see that the two are the same. Though in most cases this is probably not the case! Pain and injury are not the same thing.

Question Type: Interference

Features of correct choice: If the details in the passage are all true, then the correct choice should also be true in all the scenarios.

The answer should be C.

Why: Because no other pill relieves the pain more quickly than the pill D. Thus, all the pills would relieve the pain either as quickly as the pill D or less quickly than the pill D. Hence, anyone who takes the pill D, would get relieved at least as quickly as the person who takes the pill from the other competitor.

"Danaxil is for you — no headache pill stops pain more quickly" Is the key part of the passage. I still don't think the answer is C after seeing the OE.

Here is the OE:
"The advertisement doesn’t say that Danaxil stops headache pain more quickly than any other medicine, just that no other medication is faster."

That is a contradiction if I have ever seen one. D stops pain more quickly than any other medicine implies that nothing else is faster. Do I have some blinders on?

A, D and E are easy eliminations. The choice was between B and C. Notice the language of the passage:-

"no headache pill stops pain more quickly"

The advertisement is not saying Danaxil is the fastest. It is infact saying no one is quicker. Therefore, competing pills can be as fast as Danaxil in relieving pain but cannot be faster. With that in mind, lets look at B and C:-

(B) Evelyn’s headache pain will be relieved more quickly than Jane’s. -- Could be and could not be. A competing pill can be as fast as Danaxil and the advertisement would still hold but the inference in this answer choice would not. Eliminate.

(C) Evelyn’s headache will be relieved at least as quickly as Jane’s. -- True. Danaxil would be "as fast as" any other competing pill. Correct choice.

Hey CEdward, we seem to be practicing the same questions.

Notice the 2 highlighted portions above. Let's assume the speed of other pills to be O and the speed of Danaxil to be D. The question is basically saying -

O is less that or equal to D. You have mistakenly changed that to D is greater than O. They're just saying that nobody is faster than Danaxil, not that Danaxil is the fastest. It is entirely possible that some other medicine works at the same speed as Danaxil does, but no medicine will work faster.

Between B and C, notice that the passage says that "no headache pill stops pain more quickly than Danaxil does" - this means other pills can stop the pain either as quickly as Danaxil or slower than Danaxil.
Option B is incorrect because it says, in a way, that Danaxil will cure the pain quicker than other pill, a statement that may not be true as per the passage.

C is the correct option.

On such questions what we interpret quickly is
NOT greater then means LESS THAN.

However, we forget that
NOT greater THAN means LESS THAN or EQUAL TO.

An advertisement states: Like Danaxil, all headache pills can stop your headache. But when you are in pain, you want relief right away. Danaxil is for you — no headache pill stops pain more quickly. Evelyn and Jane are each suffering from a headache. Suppose Evelyn takes Danaxil and Jane takes its leading competitor.

Which one of the following can be properly concluded from the claims in the advertisement?

(A) Evelyn’s headache pain will be relieved, but Jane’s will not. - WRONG. It will be relieved.
(B) Evelyn’s headache pain will be relieved more quickly than Jane’s. - WRONG. If competitor's pill no headache pill than pain relieve might take similar time.
(C) Evelyn’s headache will be relieved at least as quickly as Jane’s. - CORRECT. At least is correct way to put up things.
(D) Jane’s headache pain will be relieved at the same time as is Evelyn’s. - WRONG. Not necessary since Jane's pill may or may not heal at the same time.
(E) Jane will be taking Danaxil for relief from headache pain. - WRONG. Discredits the passage itself.

Answer C.
