Question - Statement:
“Always use zebra crossings and subways to cross the road safely.”
— A notice by the City Traffic Police
Assumptions:
I. Road safety is not an option but a must for pedestrians.
II. Safety can be increased by making people aware of tips regarding road safety.
Options:
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.
E .  if both I and II are implicit.
Answer: Option E
Answer: (e)Both I and II are implicit. Why did the city traffic police need to issue such a notice? It must have assumed II. Again the word ‘always’ used in the notice makes I implicit.
