Question

Statement: "Those who are appearing for this examination for the first time should be helped in filling up the form." - An instruction to invigilating staff.
Assumptions:
I. The form is somewhat complicated.
II. Candidates can appear more than once for this examination.

• A. Only assumption I is implicit
• B. Only assumption II is implicit
• C. Either I or II is implicit
• D. Neither I nor II is implicit
• E. Both I and II are implicit

Answer 1

The correct option is B Only assumption II is implicit

The statement mentions that only those students are to be helped who are filling up the form for the first time. This does not mean that the form is complicated/So, I is not implicit. However, II follows from the statement and so is implicit.
