Discussion Forum : Statement & Assumptions
Question - Statement:
“Our country has decided to give all types of support to country X in its objective to itself poliofree by 2002.”
— Health minister of country Y
Assumptions:
I. Without the support of country Y, country X will not be able to make itself polio-free.
II. Country X is not capable of making itself poliofree by 2002.
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 D
Answer: (d)External support makes things easier. But we cannot assume that the success of a programme hinges only on this external support. Hence I is not implicit. II is not implicit because the objective wouldnot be set if the capability did not exist in the first place.
