Directions: Read the following information carefully and answer the question that follows.

Eight players are seated in two parallel lines with four players in each line, facing each other. In Line 1, A, B, C, and D are sitting, all facing north. In Line 2, W, X, Y, and Z are sitting, all facing south.

W sits at one of the extreme ends and faces the person who is second to the left of C. A is the immediate neighbour of C. B sits second to the right of A. X faces B. Z sits to the immediate left of Y.

Four of the following five are alike in a certain way and hence form a group. Which of the following does not belong to that group?

The correct option is D.

Step-by-Step Explanation:

1. Understanding the Setup:
- Line 1 (facing North): Players A, B, C, and D. Facing North means Left is towards Position 1 (West) and Right is towards Position 4 (East).
- Line 2 (facing South): Players W, X, Y, and Z. Facing South means Left is towards Position 4 (East) and Right is towards Position 1 (West).

2. Deducting the Positions Step-by-Step:
- Step 1: "W sits at one of the extreme ends and faces the person who is second to the left of C."
For a person facing North in Line 1 to have a player second to their left, C must be at Position 3. The person second to the left of C is at Position 1 (an extreme end). Thus, W sits at Position 1 in Line 2, facing the person at Position 1 in Line 1.
- Step 2: "A is the immediate neighbour of C" and "B sits second to the right of A."
Since C is at Position 3, A must be at Position 2 so that B can sit two places to the right at Position 4. (If A were at Position 4, there would be no space for B to sit to his right).
- Step 3: "D's Position in Line 1."
Since Position 2 is A, Position 3 is C, and Position 4 is B, the remaining Position 1 in Line 1 must be occupied by D.
- Step 4: "X faces B."
B is at Position 4 in Line 1, so X must be at Position 4 in Line 2.
- Step 5: "Z sits to the immediate left of Y."
In Line 2 (facing South), "left" points towards Position 4. Therefore, Y sits at Position 2 and Z sits at Position 3.

3. Final Seating Arrangement:
- Line 2 (Facing South): [Position 1: W] | [Position 2: Y] | [Position 3: Z] | [Position 4: X]
- Line 1 (Facing North): [Position 1: D] | [Position 2: A] | [Position 3: C] | [Position 4: B]

4. Finding the Odd One Out:
Let's look at the seating positions of the given choices:
- C: Middle / Inner position (Line 1, Position 3)
- A: Middle / Inner position (Line 1, Position 2)
- Z: Middle / Inner position (Line 2, Position 3)
- Y: Middle / Inner position (Line 2, Position 2)
- D: Extreme End position (Line 1, Position 1)

All options except D represent players sitting in the middle/inner positions. Therefore, D does not belong to the group.
