The document describes 4 word problems that can be solved through logical reasoning and deducing the relationships between various items described in each problem. The first problem involves blocks labeled H-L and deducing the position of block K based on the clues. The second involves dividing 14 blocks into 3 piles where the sizes of the piles are related. The third involves ordering 4 students' heights from shortest to tallest based on clues about how they compare to each other. The document shows the step-by-step working out of the problems.
