Use of breath analysis to check if the drivers are drunk, has been stopped by the traffic police to prevent the spread of Swine Flu to the traffic police.

Which of the following is an assumption implicit in the given statement?

  • A.Swine Flu can be passed on to traffic police only by drunken people.
  • B.Swine Flu is fatal.
  • C.The traffic police does not want to be infected with Swine Flu.
  • D.None of these

Answer: D

According to the statement Swine Flu could spread to traffic police on conducting breath analysis, while choice (1) says only drunken people can pass on Swine Flu. It is correct.

The statement does not mention about the fatality of Swine Flu. Hence (2) is out of context.

As the traffic police stopped using breath analysis for foar of contacting swine flu, it can be concluded that they do not want to be infected. Hence, choice (3) is a conclusion.

As the traffic police check if the driver is drunk, it can be inferred that drunken driving is an offence.

Hence, choice (4) is an inference.
