Direction: In each question 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 following assumptions and decide which of the assumptions is implicit in the statement.
-
Statement:
"Buy durable pillows of company 'X' . The pillows have been made from 100% imported downs and feather; have the natural property to take the contour and shape of your head, neck and shoulder while you sleep; and are very popular abroad as well as in the domestic market." - An advertisement
Assumptions:
I. Immense popularity of a product is a sign of the good quality of a product and its usefulness.
II. People desire for blissful sleep that keeps them ticking for the rest of the day.
-
- 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: E
I is implicit; that is why the advertisement emphasises the popularity of product abroad as well as in domestic market. The natural property focussed on in the ad is conducive to facilitating sound sleep. Hence, II is also implicit.
