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.
-
Statement:
The NDMC is wasting money and valuable resources, asking people to file their property returns by issuing big advertisements.
Assumptions:
I. Nowadays people are not interested in filling their property taxes.
II. Advertisements on smaller scale can also serve the same purpose.
-
- if only assumption I is implicit.
- if only assumption II is implicit.
- if either I or II is implicit.
- if neither I nor II is implicit.
- if both I and II are implicit.
- if only assumption I is implicit.
Correct Option: C
Either of the two is implicit. Maybe, the speaker thinks that irrespective of how much you advertise, you won't attract tax-filers. The other possibility is: why waste money when less of it can be as effective?
