Direction: In each question below is given a statement followed by two assumption numbered I and II. An assumption is something supposed or taken for granted. You have to consider the statement and the following assumption and decide which of the assumption is implicit in the statement.
-
Statement:
Metropolises might provide everything----education, jobs and a good lifestyle---- but they score miserably when it comes to life's basic necessities.
Assumptions:
I. The speaker is talking about irregular water and electricity supply.
II. A large number of people in metros are still deprived of life's basic necessities.
-
- if only assumption I is implicit.
- if only assumption II is implicit.
- if either I or II is implicit.
- if neither I nor II is implicit.
- if both I and II are implicit.
- if only assumption I is implicit.
Correct Option: B
It is hard to reduce the generalised version to a particular field. Other possibilities may also be considered, such as sanitation problem,-----Hence I is not implicit. II is implicit because it is this that makes the speaker take potshot at metros.
