Question : 21

Statement:
The principal instructed all the teachers to be careful in class because some students may disturb other students
Assumptions:
I. The teachers will handle the situation properly and they will point out the naughty student's
II. The students will welcome the decision of the Principal.

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: (e)

Clearly, teachers have been instructed to maintain discipline in the class and point out the naughty students who do not let other students study.

So, I is implicit. Besides, the implementation of the instructions would surely help good students to concentrate on their studies and ensure a good working atmosphere in the class.

So, II is also implicit

Question : 22

Statement:
“Had my father been alive, he would never have allowed me to join films.”
— Miss X, a singer
Assumptions:
I. Sometimes tragedy brings prosperity in the life of an individual.
II. Film industry witnesses many ups and downs, therefore there is no guarantee that prosperity will come in life.

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: (d)

I is not implicit because we can’t say with certainty that Miss ‘X’ assumes her life to be full of prosperity and the prosperity in her life came only after the death of her father. II may or may not be the true reason behind the reluctance of her father.

Hence, II is also not implicit.

Question : 23

Statement:
The big boys are getting ready
— and this battle could be more viciously fought than ever before.
Assumptions:
I. There is a price war going on between two leading companies.
II. People enjoy watching such battles.

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: (d)

I is not exhaustive. It may be about elections on tough fight between two popular candidates; may be the war between the US and Russia ....

Hence I is not implicit. About II, nothing can be assumed.

Question : 24

Statement:
Take this ‘oven’ home and you can prepare very tasty dishes which you were unable to prepare earlier. - An advertisement of X brand oven.
Assumptions:
I. The user knows the procedure recipe of tasty dishes but does not have the proper oven to cook.
II. Only ‘X’ brand oven can cook very tasty dishes.

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: (a)

The term ‘which you were unable to prepare earlier’ clearly means even though the user knows the procedure of some special preparation, he does not have a proper oven to cook.

Hence I is implicit. The statement assumes that ‘X’ can cook tasty dishes but does not rule out all other ovens from doing so.

Question : 25

Statement:
“Fly X airways whenever you decide to go places. Our fares are less than train fares.”--- An advertisement.
Assumptions:
