  • Question
  • Statement: "The programme will start at 6 p.m. but you can come there up to 7 p.m. or so and still there is no problem."

    Assumptions:

    1. The programme will continue even after 7 p.m.
    2. The programme may not even start by that time.


  • Options
  • 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

  • Correct Answer
  • Only assumption I is implicit 

    Explanation
    The statement mentions that there is no problem if one comes upto 7 p.m. also. This means that the programme will continue even after 7 p.m. So, I is implicit. Also, it is clearly mentioned that the programme will start at 6 p.m. So, II is not implicit.
