“Unrestricted, free and fair competition is the only process to bring out the most competent and committed of the aspirants to political leadership.”
— A note in a newspaper Assumption:I. Political leadership is facing character crisis everywhere.
II. Existing condition of the country is conducive to unrestricted, free and fair competition so that the most competent and committed candidate can be found out.
(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: (b)
Suggestion made in the note is aimed at adopting a way that brings out committed aspirants for political leadership. This implies political leadership is facing a crisis of true leadership. But can we assume that it is so everywhere? No.

Hence, II is implicit.

Question : 1
Statement:
The civic authority has advised the residents in the area to use mosquito repellents or sleep inside nets as large number of people are suffering from malaria.
Assumptions:
I. Local residents have enough money to arrange for the repellents or nets.
II. People may ignore and continue to get mosquito bites as they have other pressing needs.
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)
The civic authority has advised residents to keep away from mosquitoes to avert the risk of malaria. Such an advice would surely be adhered to by the people.
So, II is not implicit. Besides, it has been advised to use mosquito repellents or nets. This means that people can afford to buy the same.
So, I is implicit
Question : 2
Statement:
“Do not indulge in unfair practices or else you will be sacked from the college.”
— Warning to the students from the principal of a college.
Assumptions:
I. Some of the students were found using unfair practices.
II. The principal’s warning may deter the students from using unfair practices.
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: (e)
Why did the principal of the college warn the students? The principal must be assuming that the warning may bring the situation under control. And how can the situation be under control without II?
Hence, II must be assumed. Again, what compelled the principal to go for such a warning. It is I.
Hence, I is also implicit.
Question : 3
Statement:
The traders of State K would observe a statewide bandh as the state has failed to meet their demand to resolve sales tax and other issues.

I. The traders of State K have earlier tried other usual procedures to get their problems solved.

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)
Failure to meet the demands is possible only when the demands have been raised in the first place.
Hence I is implicit. II may be a conclusion but not an assumption.
Question : 4

Answer »Answer: (b)

I. Some people hanker after a prosperous life without labouring.
II. Astronomy plays a vital role in one’s life and cautions one against unfavourable situations.
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)
I may or may not be a true assumption.
Hence I is not implicit. II is obviously implicit; otherwise there would not have been the advertisement.
Question : 6
Statement:
A chariot is made of wheels, horses etc. But none of these parts is the chariot itself.
Assumptions:
I. A chariot is an incomplete construction.
II. Parts can never substitute the whole.
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 crux of the statement is that although the wheels, horses etc. make up the chariot, they are not the chariot. In other words, parts can never substitute for the whole. So II is implicit. I is not hinted at in the statement.
