Statement A group of friends decided to go for a picnic to Avon during the next holiday season to avoid crowd of people. Assumptions I. Generally many people do not go to Avon. II. People prefer other sports to Avon. III. Many people know about Avon.

All are implicit
Only II is implicit
I and II are implicit
I and III are implicit

Correct Answer: I and II are implicit

Explanation:

It is given in the statement that friends have decided to go for picnic to avoid crowd. This implies that many people don't go to Avon. Hence ,I and II are implicit. Now, we cannot say that reason for the Avon being non-crowdy is people's unacquaintance with this spot. It may be due to other reasons also.
