Correct Answer: if only Assumption I is implicit
Explanation:
Assumption I that Indian unemployed youths need monetary support is the solid base for providing allowances to all the unemployed youths. However, Assumption II that the Government has sufficient funds does not give valid reason. Hence, only Assumption I is implicit.
Correct Answer: if only Assumption II is implicit
Explanation:
Assumption I is not related with the statement, hence it is not implicit in the statement. Assumption II is implicit as it gives the solid base for the fact defined in the statement.
Correct Answer: if either I or II is implicit
Explanation:
None of the assumption is implicit as nothing can be said definitely.
Correct Answer: if neither I not II is implicit
Explanation:
None of the assumption is implicit the statement as there may be various reasons for the same.
Correct Answer: it neither I not II is implicit
Explanation:
Both the statement have no connection with the given statement. Assumption I becomes disconnected because of the word 'only' while Assumption II is rubbish as the statement does not say anything about reading materials other than adventure stories. Hence, Assumptions I and II both are invalid.
Correct Answer: if both assumption I and II are follow.
Explanation:
Both the statements follow, as the faith in the prayer and good deeds lead the person towards success.
Correct Answer: if only Assumption II is implicit
Explanation:
Assumption I is invalid as the given statement does not focus on health. The sentence 'if farmers want to improve their yield' proves that Assumption II is hidden in the given statement because the word 'improve' itself hints towards the increase of production. Hence, Assumption II implicit.
Correct Answer: if only Assumption I is implicit
Explanation:
Assumption I must be valid because only then does the storage make sense. Further, the statement has nothing to do with ''a shorter period of time''. Hence, Assumption II is invalid.
Correct Answer: if neither Assumption I nor II is implicit
Explanation:
Assumption I is not implicit as it has no connection with the given statement. The need to grow different types of crops is talked about precisely because there is a likelihood of farmers growing the same crop again and again unless instructed. Further, growing different types of crops is impotent but not sufficient. Therefore, Assumption II is also not valid.
Correct Answer: if only Assumption I is implicit
Explanation:
Assumption I is implicit. The reason is that if the Government has taken such a decision, it must have assumed that its implementation would be possible. Argument II is not implicit because on the basis of given statement it cannot be said with surety that sufficient amount of bio-fuel can be produced in the country. It is possible that the Government has import on its mind for the said purpose.
