Statement: Believe me, I have read it in newspaper X.
Assumptions:
1. Newspaper X gives reliable information/news.
2. I am reporting exactly as it is given in newspaper X
Answer: B
Correct answer: Only assumption II is implicit
“Believe me” is an appeal to the speaker’s own accuracy: he takes for granted that he is repeating what the paper said - assumption II. Assumption I, that the paper is reliable, is what the hearer is being asked to grant, not what the speaker assumes. Only II is implicit.
