    Question

    A statement is given, followed by two assumptions I and II. You have to consider the statement and two assumptions and decide which of the assumption(s) is/are implicit.

    Statement : "The education board has decided to reduce

    the syllabus for this academic year." Assumptions : I. Reducing the syllabus will reduce the burden on students. II. Students will have more time for extracurricular activities.
    A If only Assumption I is implicit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B If only Assumption II is implicit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C If neither Assumption I nor II is implicit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D If both Assumption I and II are implicit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Assumption I is directly implicit, as reducing the syllabus is intended to reduce the burden on students, which aligns with the decision to ease their workload. Assumption II is not necessarily implicit because reducing the syllabus doesn't automatically imply that students will have more time for extracurricular activities; it focuses on the reduction of academic load.
