Question : 46

Statement:
“Our country has decided to give all types of support to country X in its objective to itself poliofree by 2002.”
— Health minister of country Y

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: (d)

Question : 47

People living in border areas of country X have started selling their crops at low prices after the tense situation with neighbouring country Y.
