Statement–Assumption — “Why do not you invite Anthony for the Christmas party this year?” Assumptions: I) Anthony is not from the same city. II) Unless invited, Anthony will not attend the party. Choose the implicit assumption(s).

Introduction / Context:
The suggestion to “invite Anthony” presumes that an invitation is a relevant condition for his attendance. The city of residence is not referenced and is not necessary for the suggestion to make sense.

Given Data / Assumptions:

• Action proposed: extend an invitation to Anthony.
• Goal: have Anthony attend the party.

Concept / Approach:
Assumption II is required: if Anthony would attend irrespective of invitation, the suggestion loses force; if Anthony would never attend, inviting is pointless. Assumption I (city) is extraneous—the need for an invitation does not depend on city of residence.

Step-by-Step Solution:

Verification / Alternative check:

Why Other Options Are Wrong:
Picking I (or either) imports a detail the statement does not rely upon.

Common Pitfalls:
Assuming the speaker knows Anthony’s travel logistics; the statement only concerns the social precondition.

Final Answer:
Only Assumption II is implicit.
