  • Question
  • Statement:
    "My life has become a burden for too many people and my step of jumping off a multistoreyed housing complex will bring happiness for many people. I do not blame anyone for my act. Please let me die peacefully." - A suicide note written by a 19-year-old girl.
    Assumptions:
    I. Jumping off a multistoreyed housing complex will cause death.
    II. Jumping off a multistoreyed housing complex is the easiest among the various way of ending lives, such as hanging, burning and consuming poison.


  • 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 I is implicit. 

    Explanation

    The tone of the statement implies that the speaker must have assumed I. That is why she uses the words "let me die peacefuly." But the statement gives no indication about the comparison to other ways of suicide. Hence, assumption II is not implicit.
