    Assumptions:
    I. If one play goes well, then other also will.
    II. The success of this play will be an indication of the people's taste.
    1. if only assumption I is implicit.
    2. if only assumption II is implicit.
    3. if either I or II is implicit.
    4. if neither I nor II is implicit.
    5. if both I and II are implicit.
Correct Option: B

The statement is not one about staging of plays in general. Hence I is not implicit. It is about whether the depiction of a religious figure on stage appeals to the audience. Hence II is implicit.
