Direction: In each question below is given a statement followed by two assumption numbered I and II. An assumption is something supposed or taken for granted. You have to consider the statement and the following assumption and decide which of the assumption is implicit in the statement.

  1. Statement :
    If a doctor's degree is your ambition, then the choice of a good guidance institution is half the job done.
    Assumptions :
    I. Without proper guidance, it is very hard to be a doctor.
    II. Institute alone can 't help a student in his success.
    1. if only assumption I is implicit.
    2. if only assumption II is implicit.
    3. if either I or II is implicit.
    4. if neither I nor II is implicit.
    5. if both I and II are implicit.
Correct Option: E

The term half the job done helps in assuming both the assumptions.Half means students too need to do hard labour for the rest half. Hence II is implicit. I is implicit since the half provided by guidance is also necessary.
