Q1:

Statement: "According to me, you should get your child examined by a specialist doctor." - A tells B. Assumptions:
  1. Specialist doctors are able to diagnose better than ordinary doctors.
  2. B will certainly not agree with A's advice.

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
