Q1:

Statement: The school authorities have decided to increase the number of students in each classroom to seventy from the next academic session to bridge the gap between the income and the expenditure to a large extent. Assumptions:
  1. The income generated by way of fees of the additional students will be sufficient enough to bridge the gap.
  2. The school will get all the additional students in each class from the next academic session.

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:A - Only assumption I is implicit

Explanation: Clearly, increasing the number of children in each class would increase the income and reduce the expenditure per child. But the response to the school's decision cannot be deduced. So, only I is implicit.
