Q1:

Statement: It will be a substantial achievement in the field of education if one provides one school for every village in our country and enforce attendance. Assumptions:
  1. Children in villages do not attend school regularly.
  2. Providing school to every village is desirable.

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:E - Both I and II are implicit

Explanation: The statement lays stress on enforcing attendance. This implies that children in villages do not attend school regularly. So, I is implicit. Besides, the statement calls 'one school for every village' a 'substantial achievement'. So, II is also implicit.
