Statement:

It's an important matter; the prime minister is not taking any decision with regard to declaring war against our hostile neighbour.

Assumptions:

I. It is better if he decides the matter without any hurry.

II. This is a matter which should not be postponed and war should be declared immediately.

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

Answer: C

The opinion of the author of this statement is not clear from his words. It is sure that he is either favourable or against such an action of the Prime Minister. Hence, either (I) or (II) but not both, is an assumption.
