Question

    In each question below is given a statement followed by two assumptions numbered I and II. You have to consider the statement and the following assumptions and decide which of the assumptions is implicit in the statement.  Give answer

    No one bothered to put a traffic blockade in place, as required, and the welding of the tracks could not be completed before the train passed through.

    I. The train collapsed injuring many passengers.

    II. Signal is required to indicate that the repair work is in progress.

    A If only assumption I is implicit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B If only assumption II is implicit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C If either I or II is implicit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D If neither I nor II is implicit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E If both I and II are implicit. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    I is an effect of the statement and not the assumption. Thus, I is not implicit. Since no one ‘bothered as required’ is mentioned. It means that signal like traffic blockade is a must to avoid accidents. Thus, II is implicit.
