Question : 1
Statement:
The Net has a lot of useless sites floating around and www.bigwaste.com is one of them, the difference being that it admits to being a big waste of time.
Assumptions:
I. Most of the websites claim to be useful ever when they are not so.
II. The Net has no mechanism to distinguish useless sites from useful ones.
a) if only assumption I is implicit.
b) if only assumption II is implicit.
c) if either I or II is implicit.
d) if neither I nor II is implicit.
e) if both I and II are implicit.
Answer »Answer: (a)
I is implicit from the “difference” being pointed out. II is beyond the scope of the statement.
Question : 2
Statement:
By wining the Booker Prize, Arundhati Roy gives Indian writing in English global acceptance.
Assumptions:
I. Booker prize is a sign of recognition for English writing.
II. Indian writing in English has come of age.
a) if only assumption I is implicit.
b) if only assumption II is implicit.
c) if either I or II is implicit.
d) if neither I nor II is implicit.
e) if both I and II are implicit.
Answer »Answer: (a)
I is implicit because if Booker Prize brings global acceptance, it must be a sign of recognition. II is not implicit. The coming of age of Indian writing in English may be an inference, but not an assumption.
Question : 3
Statement:
Banks should always check financial status before lending money to a client.
Assumptions:
I. Checking before lending would give a true picture of the client’s financial status.
II. Clients sometimes may not present the correct picture of their ability to repay loan amount to the bank.
a) if only assumption I is implicit.
b) if only assumption II is implicit.
c) if either I or II is implicit.
d) if neither I nor II is implicit.
e) if both I and II are implicit.
Answer »Answer: (a)
I is implicit in the norm prescribed in the sentence. This is why checking is being advised. Again, what would the banks check? Obviously, what the clients reveal. Banks would assume the revelation to be true.
Hence II is not implicit. However, II is vague. If cross-checking is what the speaker has in mind, II would become implicit.
Question : 4
Statement:
Legislation alone cannot change entrenched customs and social attitudes. Women’s plight is compounded by their ignorance of rights and reluctance to seek legal remedies even when they are aware of them.
Assumptions:
I. Only literacy can change entrenched customs and social attitudes.
II. Women are generally subject to ill-treatment in our society.
a) if only assumption I is implicit.
b) if only assumption II is implicit.
c) if either I or II is implicit.
d) if neither I nor II is implicit.
e) if both I and II are implicit.
Answer »Answer: (b)
The speaker is assuming II that is why he is talking about the entrenched customs and social attitudes towards women and about their plight getting compounded. I is not an assumption here.
Question : 5
Statement:
When the hammer does not work, use a sledge hammer.
Assumptions:
I. A sledgehammer is more powerful than a hammer.
II. Different tools are required in different conditions.
a) if only assumption I is implicit.
b) if only assumption II is implicit.
c) if either I or II is implicit.
d) if neither I nor II is implicit.
e) if both I and II are implicit.
Answer »Answer: (c)
If A needs to be substituted by B, we assume that B is more appropriate than A.
Now, the appropriateness of sledgehammer may be due to either of the following reasons:
(a) a sledgehammer is more powerful;
(b) though not more powerful, it works because different tools are required in different conditions.
(b) may be explained by the following example: A chalk cannot be said to be more powerful than a pen. But when it comes to writing on a blackboard, you would use a chalk, not a pen.
Question : 6
Statement:
“As far as prediction about your success in the forthcoming PO examination is concerned, it becomes necessary to know your level of preparation.”
— ‘A’ tells ‘B’
Assumptions:
I. Knowledge of preparation of ‘B’ will indicate whether ‘B’ will succeed in the examination or not.
II. Every competitor needs prediction about the result of his/her preparation for the examination.
a) if only assumption I is implicit.
b) if only assumption II is implicit.
c) if either I or II is implicit.
d) if neither I nor II is implicit.
e) if both I and II are implicit.
Answer »Answer: (a)
I is implicit in the words “it becomes necessary”. II is not implicit because of the word “every”.
