Skinks:
Throughout New Zealand ( I guess it's True)

smell using Nose False)

Some believe they are poisonous (True I guess)

tail regrows 3 times (i guess, Not Given)

Season food changes (true)

 

[fgxcv]

smell using Nose False)

But there was no information about the "nose" but there was information on "nostrils." Some animals have noses and some do not have. Some animals have nostrils but not a nose. There was no information on nose so how come its false??

Poison is NG i believe...the passage said some rumors say their teeth is harmfull but despite ppl belief they are harmless...it didnt mention ppl think they have poison in their teeth..then next line talked about poison but in their tail not teeth..

 

[fgxcv]

I also completely agree with you there. THERE WAS NO DIRECT STATEMENT CONFIRMING THE ISSUE OF POISON. My answer is also NG

I also completely agree with you there. THERE WAS NO DIRECT STATEMENT CONFIRMING THE ISSUE OF POISON. My answer is also NG

The paragraph also said despite the rumors they are also not venomous, which indirectly says some people beleive they are poisonous so answer is "True"

 

[fgxcv]

For an answer to be "True" there must be a DIRECT confirmation which is not in this case in the passage. You saying "indirectly" meaning there is no information pointing directly to skinks being poisonous and okay harmful in that way. The answer is NG I'm sure.

I believe the passage said the lizard itself isn't venomous, but when talked abt teeth just mentioned the rumors say their teeth r harmful

The direct hint is abt skink itself to be poisonous not teeth..its my idea

The answer to that question is "TRUE".

 

[mech.bilal]

The answer to that question is "TRUE".

It's true and the intent of such questions is to analyze how you can asses a paraphrased complex sentence. Despite rumors means (however many believe but.....)
