C Only III is implicit

D Only II and III are implicit

E None is implicit

ANS:C - Only III is implicit

Explanation: The statement expresses surprise at the traffic situation remaining normal even after rains. This means that rains affect traffic. So, II is not implicit. But this does not mean that only rains affect traffic. So, I is also not implicit. Since the traffic was not affected during rains as expected, so III is implicit.
