Inference about reliability: complete the consequence of being unpredictable Stem: "His behaviour is so unpredictable that he …" Choose the logically consistent result that follows from high unpredictability.

Given data

• Premise: Behaviour is "so unpredictable".
• We need a consequence introduced by "that".

Concept/Approach
Unpredictability undermines reliability. A common social consequence is reduced trust from others.

Option analysis
is seldom trusted by others — fits the natural consequence of unpredictability. ✅(a) Possible, but it focuses on promise-keeping rather than how others react.(c) "Always insists … on time" contradicts unpredictability.(d) Independence is unrelated to predictability.

Common pitfalls

• Confusing internal traits (e.g., diligence) with the external perception of trust.

Final Answer
is seldom trusted by others.
