Directions : In each of the following questions a statement is given, followed by three conclusions. Give answer :

Statement : The civic authority has decided that all the factories located inside the city limits be shifted outside to reduce the level of environmental pollution in the city.

Assumptions :
I. The pollution level in the city in future may reduce after these factories are shifted outside the city limit.
II. Enough usable land is available outside the city limit for these factories.
III. Many of these factories may shift to some other smaller towns to remain profitable.

  • 1Only I is implicit
  • 2Only I and II are implicit
  • 3Only II is implicit
  • 4Only II and III are implicit
Answer:- 1
Explanation:-

Solution:
I directly follows from the statement and so is implicit. The decision to shift factories on the outskirts of the city must have been taken after taking into account the availability of land there So, II is implicit. Nothing can be assumed as to what strategy would the factory owners adopt in future. So, III is not implicit.
