Difficulty: Easy
Correct Answer: if both I and II are implicit.
Explanation:
Introduction / Context:
The plan is to monetize/“put to good use” bus tickets by printing ads. For the plan to be rational, at least two premises must hold: visibility to riders and the existence of advertisers willing to pay.
Given Data / Assumptions:
Concept / Approach:
Advertising has two sides: audience attention and paying clients. Without readership, ads are ineffective; without clients, there are no ads to print.
Step-by-Step Solution:
Assumption I: Necessary. If riders do not see the ads, the idea fails the “use” test.Assumption II: Necessary. The plan presumes that advertisers will participate; otherwise the initiative cannot proceed.
Verification / Alternative check:
Remove either premise and the plan loses its commercial logic.
Why Other Options Are Wrong:
Single-assumption choices omit an essential side of the market; “neither” contradicts the rationale; “either” is insufficient.
Common Pitfalls:
Overlooking the two-sided nature of advertising platforms.
Final Answer:
if both I and II are implicit.
