Direction: In each of the questions below, is given a statement followed by two assumptions numbered I and II. An assumption is something supposed or taken for granted. You have to consider the statement and the assumptions and decide which of the assumption(s) is/are implicit in the statement.
-
Statement
The next meeting of the governing body for the Arihant Publication will be held after one year.
Assumptions
I. There will be no meeting before one year.
II. Arihant Publication will remain in function after one year.
-
- if only Assumption I is implicit
- if only Assumption II is implicit
- it either I or II is implicit
- it neither I not II is implicit
Correct Option: B
Assumption I is invalid because it has no connection with the given statement. The statement clearly says about meeting of government body and not about any other meeting. Assumption II is valid as only those bodies that are functional hold meetings. So if it is announced that next meeting will be held after one year, the announcers must be assuming that the institute will remain functional after one year.
