Difficulty: Medium
Correct Answer: Only Assumption II is implicit
Explanation:
Introduction / Context:The sentence is an evaluative generalization, attributing sacrificial virtue to women. We must identify the minimal belief it relies on and avoid loading it with extra prescriptive claims about men’s roles.
Given Data / Assumptions:
Concept / Approach:Calling women the “embodiment” of sacrifices presumes that making sacrifices is common or characteristic among women (II). It does not entail a prohibition on men’s sacrifices (I). The statement is descriptive/celebratory about women, not prescriptive about men.
Step-by-Step Solution:
1) “Embodiment” → typicality/centrality of the trait within the group (supports II).2) No exclusivity or norm forbidding men’s sacrifice is asserted (reject I).3) Therefore only II is implicit.Verification / Alternative check: Why Other Options Are Wrong: Common Pitfalls:Reading an encomium as an exclusionary rule; the statement praises a trait without banning it in others. Final Answer:Only Assumption II is implicit.
