Difficulty: Easy
Correct Answer: If only Assumption I is implicit
Explanation:
Introduction / Context:
The imperative “Read this book” is targeted at someone who desires comprehensive information. For the advice to be actionable, the audience must be capable of reading. Comparison with other books is not necessary to justify the recommendation.

Concept / Approach:
Assumption I is a practical precondition—if the person cannot read, the recommendation fails at the starting gate. Assumption II is unnecessary; the text claims sufficiency (“this book”), not superiority against many alternatives.
Step-by-Step Solution:
Verification / Alternative check:
Why Other Options Are Wrong:
Picking II (or either) injects an unneeded comparative assumption; “neither” ignores the obvious literacy precondition.
Common Pitfalls:
Confusing “comprehensive” with “comparative” and requiring market context where none is needed.
Final Answer:
Only Assumption I is implicit.
