Direction: In each question below is given a statement followed by two assumptions number 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 assumptions is implicit in the statement.

  1. Statement:
    The Government announced a heavy compensation package for all the victims of the terrorist attacks.
    Assumption:
    I. Such incident of terror may not occur in near future.
    II. Compensation may mitigate anger among the citizens against the current government.
    1. if only assumption I is implicit.
    2. if only assumption II is implicit.
    3. if either assumption I or II is implicit.
    4. if neither assumption I nor II is implicit.
    5. if both assumption I and II are implicit.
Correct Option: B

Compensation is a way of sympathising with the victims, not a different to terrorism. Hence II is implicit but I is not.
