Question : 1
Statement:
Health is the foundation of well-being, virtue, prosperity, wealth, happiness and salvation.
Assumptions:
I. Happiness results in health and well-being.
II. People desire to be happy, prosperous and virtuous.
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)

Hence the statement.
Question : 2
Statement:
Traffic jams on most of the roads in the city have become a regular feature during monsoon.
Assumptions:
I. Material used for road construction cannot withstand the fury of monsoon resulting into innumerable pot holes on the roads.
II. Number of vehicles coming on the road is much more in monsoon as compared to other seasons.
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: (d)
- INVALID: Not related to the statement. The statement talks about traffic jams on roads. There is no mention about the cause of the traffic jams. The material resulting in the potholes on roads can be a cause. But this assumption cannot be accepted for sure as there is no mention about it in the statement
- INVALID: Not related to the statement. The assumption shows the comparison of monsoons with other seasons. There is no such proof in the statement. Hence, the assumption cannot be accepted.
Question : 3

The journey from Bengaluru to Delhi can be completed in less time.

a) Only I is implicit
b) Only II is implicit
c) I and II both are implicit
d) Neither I nor II is implicit
Answer »Answer: (d)
Only I is implicit Assumption I is not implicit as the reduction in travel time may be due to high speed trains also. Assumption II is not implicit as the other mode of transport has not been discused in the given statement.
Question : 4
Statement:
Lack of transparency in financial and investment policies and bureaucratic delays are major hurdles as India tries to integrate its economy into the global market.
Assumptions:
I. The investment policies need to be changed for large-scale globalisation in India.
II. Bureaucrats in India are corrupt.
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)
There may be other reasons for bureaucratic delays, e.g. long enquiry process by different departments on different angles.
Hence II is not implicit. I is implicit; that is why he has told so.
Question : 5
Statement:
Many employees of the organisation applied for special sabbatical leaves of two years to pursue higher education
Assumptions:
I. The management of the organisation may not grant leave to most of these employees.
II. These employees may be able to complete their education during the sabbatical leave.
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)
When one applies for leave, one assumes that it would be granted. Hence I is not implicit. But Assumption II is implicit because only then the period of “two years” assumes meaning
Question : 6
Statement:
“Imparting greater economic value to the time and labour of the poor through technological and knowledge empowerment should receive priority.”
— An economist’s opinion
Assumptions:
I. The poor get very little wages for their labour.
II. Only upliftment of the poor can enhance the economy of a country.
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)
It is clear that the economist assumes that at present the time and labour poor does not have much economic value.
Hence I is implicit. Now, why does he advocate for the measure? This is not very clear. Maybe he also has the economy of the country in mind. But not necessarily. He may be more interested in the poor than in the country.
