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: The address of the Principal to the students, "Dear students, if you want a healthy mind, listen to music." Assumptions:
  1. Normally students like to follow good advice.
  2. It is desirable to develop a healthy mind.
  3. It is the duty of the Principal to advise the students.

A Only I and II are implicit

B Only II and III are implicit

C Only I and III are implicit

D None is implicit

E None of these

ANS:A - Only I and II are implicit

Explanation: The Principal has advised the students regarding their welfare. This implies that students like to follow good advice. So, I is implicit. Since the Principal stresses on having 'a healthy mind', it implies that students desire for the same. So, II is implicit. However, the Principal has given the advice out of deep concern for his students and not because it is his duty. So, III is not implicit.
