Statement - Assumptions Questions and Answers

Important Instructions
Direction for [ Question No: 51 To 60 ] :

In 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.

51.

Statement: “Use our detergent for a spotless wash.” - an advertisement by a company.
Assumptions: I. People want a spotless wash. II. The detergent is effective. III. No other detergent can give a spotless wash.

Answer: B

Correct answer: Only I and II are implicit

An advertisement is addressed to a want, so I is assumed, and no company would make the claim without supposing its own product delivers it, so II is assumed.

III goes further than the statement requires: claiming your product works is not the same as assuming every rival fails.

Statement: These apples are too cheap to be good.

Assumptions:

1. When the apple crop is abundant, the prices go down.

2. The lower the selling price, the inferior is the quality of the commodity.

3. Very cheap apples are also good.

Answer: C

It is mentioned that the apples are so cheap that they cannot be good. This means that the prices of good apples are never too low and that very cheap apples are never good. So, neither I nor III is implicit. Assumption II clearly follows from the statement that apples are of inferior quality because they are cheap. So, it is implicit.

Statement: The professor announced in the class that the next periodical examination will be held on 15th of the next month.

Assumptions:

1. All the students may appear in the examination.

2. The college will remain open on 15th of the next month.

3. The students can study till 15th of the next month to pass the examination

Answer: C

The statement mentions only the schedule of the examination. But this doesn't ensure full attendance of students on that day. However, this implies that the college will remain open on the date of examination to hold the same and that the students can study till that date to pass the examination. Hence, only II and III are implicit, while I is not.

Statement: The school has decided to hold its annual sports day in December instead of October.
Assumptions: I. December weather is more suitable for sports than October weather. II. Students do not perform well in October. III. The school has the authority to fix the date.

Answer: C

Correct answer: Only I and III are implicit

Moving the date presumes some advantage in the new month, so I is implicit, and the school could not make the decision at all without the authority to do so, so III is implicit.

II is a different claim: unsuitable weather is not the same as poor performance, and the statement assumes nothing about how students perform.
