Direction: In each question below is given a statement followed by two assumptions numbered I and II . An assumption is something supposed or taken for granted. You have to consider the statement and the following assumptions and decide which of the assumption(s) is/are implicit in the statement.
-
Statement
Why don't you invite Anthony for the Christmas party this year?
Assumptions
I. Anthony is not from the same city.
II. Unless invited, Anthony will not attend the party.
-
- If only Assumption I is implicit
- If only Assumption II is implicit
- If either Assumption I or II is implicit
- If neither Assumptions I nor II is implicit
Correct Option: B
We cannot say that Anthony is not from the same city. But it is assumed that unless invited, Anthony will not attend the party as invitation has been emphasised in the statement. Hence, only Assumption II is implicit.
