Directions : In each of the following questions a statement is given, followed by two conclusions. Give answer : Statement : Deepak has a large collection of books and he keeps on purchasing new books to add to his collection. Assumptions : I. Deepak loves and cares for books. II. Deepak has read each and every book that he has purchased.

A.
Only assumption I is implicit
Answer
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

Answer: Option A

Solution

Answer: Option A
Solution:
The statement clearly reflects Deepak's exceptional interest in books. So, I is implicit. However, how many books of his collection he has gone through, cannot be deduced from the statement. Thus, II is not implicit.
