Statement:

If children are to manage our world in future, then they need to be equipped to do so.

Assumptions:

I. The world has always educated children.

II. It is possible to educate children.

  • A.If only assumption I is inplicit
  • B.If only assumption II is inplicit
  • C.If either I or II is implicit
  • D.If neither I nor II is implicit

Answer: B

Correct answer: If only assumption II is inplicit

The statement says children need to be equipped for a future task, and a recommendation is only meaningful if it can be acted on, so the possibility of educating them is assumed. Assumption I is a claim about the past, that the world has always educated children, which the statement neither states nor requires - it is precisely because the equipping may be lacking that the point is being made.
