Statement and Assumption - Verbal and Reasoning

Q1:

Statement: The two countries have signed a fragile pact, but the vital sovereignty issue remains unresolved. Assumptions:
  1. The two countries cannot have permanent peace pact.
  2. The two countries may become hostile again after a short spell of time.

A Only assumption I is implicit

B Only assumption II is implicit

C Either I or II is implicit

D Neither I nor II is implicit

E Both I and II are implicit

ANS:B - Only assumption II is implicit

Explanation: From the fact that the present pact is not a lasting one, the possibility of a permanent pact cannot be ruled out. So, I is not implicit. The statement mentions that the present pact is a 'fragile' one and the vital sovereignty issue still remains unresolved. So the same issue may rise again in the future. Thus, II is implicit.
