Direction: Each of these questions has a statement followed by two assumptions numbered I and II. An assumption is something supposed or taken for granted. Consider the statement and the following assumptions.

  1. Statement
    A leading NGO decided to open a library containing books and newspapers of all major publishers in a remote village.
    Assumptions
    I. All other nearby villages already have similar libraries.
    II. There is adequate number of literate people in the village.
    1. if only Assumption I is implicit
    2. if only Assumption II is implicit
    3. if either Assumption I or II is implit
    4. if neither Assumption I nor II is implicit
Correct Option: B

Assumption I is not implicit as it has no relation with the given statement. The statement does not give any information about other villages. Further literacy is necessary for a library to be successful. Hence, II is implicit.
