Statement and Assumption - Verbal and Reasoning

Directions to SolveIn each question below is given a statement followed by three assumptions numbered I, II and III. You have to consider the statement and the following assumptions, decide which of the assumptions is implicit in the statement and choose your answer accordingly.
Q1:

Statement: Quality of life of a person is not dependent only on his wealth. Assumptions:
  1. The aim of most people is just to acquire more wealth.
  2. There are some factors other than wealth which contribute to the quality of life.
  3. Wealth does not contribute to the quality of life at all.

A Only I is implicit

B Only I and II are implicit

C Only II is implicit

D Only II and III are implicit

E Only I and III are implicit

ANS:C - Only II is implicit

Explanation: Clearly, I does not follow from the statement. So, it is not implicit. The statement mentions that quality of life does not depend only on wealth. This means that there are some other factors as well, which govern the quality of life. But this does not imply that wealth does not contribute at all. So, II is implicit while III is not.
