Conclusions:
(I) Few mountains are valleys. → Not follow (There is no definite relation between mountains and valleys, so it can be possible but not definitely true)
(II) Some hills are mountains. → Not follow ( There is no definite relation between hills and mountains, so it can be possible but not definitely true)
