Q.9) (b)

Q.10) (d)


Q.11) (d)

Neither assumption I nor assumption II is implicit, as it is unclear if his parents know about his interest in Cricket. Also we don’t know whether his playing cricket has in anyway affected his studying or not so assumption I and II are false.

Q.12) (a)

Assumption I alone follows, as we can safely assume from the statement that Muslim Women will welcome this decision as it will help them in their fight. But assumption II is not implicit as we can’t derive from the statement whether other women of other religions will welcome this decision.

Q.13) (a)

Assumption I alone follows, from the statement we can learn that there have been established rules i.e. Cable Act which all channels must follow failing which the Ministry will pull the channel off the air. Hence assumption I is implicit.

Q.14) (d)

Neither assumption I nor II follows. Since we don’t know the original number of crew that went into space, assumption II is not implicit. While assumption I is plainly absurd as we can derive from the statement that astronauts do get back from the space station.

Q.15) (b)

Assumption II alone follows, since we can deduce from the need for such a study that there must have been an endeavor to find treatment for suicidal and depressed patients. While assumption I is not implicit as we cannot substantiate or derive it from the statement that people don’t believe in such studies.

Q.16) (a)

Only assumption I is implicit, since it is stated in the statement that the President is the only sole arbiter when it comes to deciding on invading other countries. While assumption II directly contradicts what is given in the statement.

Q.17) (d)

Neither assumption I nor assumption II is implicit, as it is never made clear if she have any friends.

Q.18) (b)

Only assumption II is implicit, as it can be reasonably assumed that China has taken great risks by placing its military in the South China sea so it must have some kind of benefits in doing so. Assumption I is a possibility and cannot be assumed from the given statement, as we can’t be sure if China will be rebuked from the South-China Sea

Q.19) (a) Only assumption I is implicit from the statement as we can be sure that the survey was conducted to identify the extent to which people suffer from mental health issues and require medical assistance, assumption II is a claim but cannot be inferred from the statement.

Q.20) (e) We can assume conclusion I from the statement as we know the motivations of the people to write the petitions is to bring attention of the government to this matter and also we can be sure that the health care costs of the diabetes patients are increasing, hence both conclusion I and II are implicit.
