  • Question
  • Statement:
    Instead of burning the leaves, bury them in compost pits, by which it gets converted to natural manure, making it beneficial for the soil.-A notice issued in public interest by Department of Environment
    Assumptions:
    I. Whenever leaves are burnt in the open, the air gets laden with tiny particulate matter which raises air pollution to alarming levels, which causes severe respiratory disorders and eye infection to those exposed to it.
    II. Benefits gained from ashes of leaves burnt are not as much as the benefits gained from the natural manure obtained from leaves by burning it.


  • Options
  • A. if only assumption I is implicit.
  • B. if only assumption II is implicit.
  • C. if either I or II is implicit.
  • D. if neither I nor II is implicit.

  • Correct Answer
  • if only assumption II is implicit. 

    Explanation

    Assumption I goes very deep. Hence, it is not implicit. But, assumption II is implicit. That is why the notice stresses on buying the leaves instead of burning it.
