Question 11

Explanation

To answer this question, we need to map the cause-and-effect logical flow presented in the text. Let's define the premises:

• $P$: The Jakarta area and its surroundings are experiencing the rainy season.
• $Q$: Rivers cannot accommodate rainwater and floods occur.
• $R$: Residents are forced to evacuate to a safe place.

Logical Analysis

Based on the text, the relationship between premises can be depicted as a chain implication:

This means:

1. If it is the rainy season ($P$), then rivers overflow and flood ($Q$).
2. If it floods ($Q$), then residents evacuate ($R$).

Syllogism Conclusion

Using the principle of hypothetical syllogism, we can draw a direct conclusion from start to finish:

The question states that it is currently the rainy season ($P$ occurs).

Therefore, based on the logic above, the inevitable conclusion is residents are forced to evacuate to a safe place ($R$).

Residents will be forced to evacuate to a safe place.
