According to the diagrams, some flies are may or may not be scooters, if we go through the exclusive rules,
~ statement 1 is universal +ve & statement 2 is particular +ve.
~ A/c to conclusion 2 we can converse the 2nd statement as some files are scooters.
~ Then when we draw the conclusion, it will be particular +ve. So answer is B.
~ statement 1 is universal +ve & statement 2 is particular +ve.
~ A/c to conclusion 2 we can converse the 2nd statement as some files are scooters.
~ Then when we draw the conclusion, it will be particular +ve. So answer is B.

I think the second conclusion is doubtful and it may be or may be not.
In the doubtful condition it always wrong.

2. If we take the general scenario of syllogism then option D is correct.
