Q1:

Statement: "X air-conditioner - the largest selling name with the largest range." - An advertisement. Assumptions:
  1. X air-conditioner is the only one with wide variations.
  2. There is a demand of air-conditioners in the market.

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:B - Only assumption II is implicit

Explanation: Clearly, the advertisement does not mention the word 'only' i.e. other air-conditioners may also have wide variations. So, I is not implicit. Also, the advertisement is given so that the people know about that which they demand. So, II is implicit.
