    Solution

    Statement: For the efficient preparation of current affairs, one should daily take notes from the newspaper. Assumptions: I. Current affairs could not be prepared for efficiently without newspapers. In the given statement, it is mentioned that for the efficient preparation of current affairs, one should daily take notes from the newspaper. But there is nowhere mentioned that current affairs could not be prepared efficiently without newspapers, as current affairs can also be prepared using current affair magazines, watching the news, or using the internet. Therefore, assumption I is not implicit. II. Making daily current affairs notes help in efficient preparation. In the given statement, it is mentioned that for efficient preparation of current affairs, one should daily notes from the newspaper. Since making notes will help us keep a record of our daily current affairs, therefore it is safe to assume that making daily current affairs notes helps in efficient preparation. Therefore, assumption II is implicit. Hence, the correct answer is "Only assumption II is implicit".
