Statement Please do not lean out of the running bus, a notice in a tourist bus. Assumptions I. Learning out of running bus is dangerous. II. The passengers are likely to pay attention to this notice.

if only Assumption I is implicit
if only Assumption II is implicit
if either I or II is implicit
if both Assumption I and II are implicit

Correct Answer: if both Assumption I and II are implicit

Explanation:

'Do not lean out' implies that this act can be dangerous. Hence, Assumption II is implicit. The purpose of a notice is getting response from targeted mass. Therefore, without assuming response from targeted mass, there will be no such notice. Clearly, Assumption II is also valid.
