31. Statement : Without reforming the entire administrative system, we cannot eradicate corruption and prejudice from the society.

Assumptions :
I. The existence of corruption and prejudice is good.
II. There is enough flexibility to change the administrative system.


Option”B” is correct

The statement talks of eradicating corruption and prejudice from the society, which indicates that these aspects are undesirable. So, I is not implicit. Besides, the statement mentions about reforming the administrative system. So, II is implicit.

32. Statement : The civic authority has advised the residents in the area to use mosquito repellents or sleep inside nets as large number of people are suffering from malaria.

Assumptions :
I. Local residents have enough money to arrange for the repellents or nets.
II. People may ignore and continue to get mosquito bites as they have other pressing needs.


Option”A” is correct

The civic authority has advised residents to keep away from mosquitoes to avert the risk of malaria. Such an advice would surely be adhered to by the people. So, II is not implicit. Besides, it has been advised to use mosquito repellents or nets. This means that people can afford to buy the same. So, I is implicit.

33. Statement : Vitamin E tablets improve circulation, keep your complexion in a glowing condition.

Assumptions :
I. People like a glowing complexion.
II. Complexion becomes dull in the absence of circulation.


Option”E” is correct

Generally, only that good feature of a product is highlighted which people crave for. So, I is implicit. Since complexion glows if circulation is improved, so II is also implicit.

34. Statement : “Ensure a good Slight’s sleeps for your family with safe and effective X mosquito coil.” – An advertisement.

Assumptions :
I. X mosquito coil is better than any other mosquito coil.
II. A good night’s sleep is desirable.


Option”B” is correct

The statement mentions the good qualities of X coil but this does not mean it is the best. So, I is not implicit. Besides, an advertisement highlights the feature which is desirable by customers and can lure them. So, II is implicit.

35. Statement : “Please do not wait for me, I may be late, start taking lunch as soon as the guests arrive.” – A message from a Director of a Company to his office managers.

Assumptions :
I. Keeping guests waiting is not desirable.
II. Lunch may not be ready in time.


Option”A” is correct

Clearly, the Director instructs his managers not to keep the guests waiting because of him and to proceed with lunch soon after their arrival. This implies that lunch would be ready in time. So, only I is implicit.

36. Statement : The State government has decided to appoint four thousand primary school teachers during the next financial year.

Assumptions :
I. There are enough schools in the state to accommodate four thousand additional primary school teachers.
II. The eligible candidates may not be interested to apply as the government may not finally appoint such a large number of primary school teachers.


Option”A” is correct

Such decisions as given in the statement are taken only after taking the existing vacancies into consideration. So, I implicit while II isn’t.

37. Statement : A warning in a train compartment – “To stop train, pull chain. Penalty for improper use Rs. 500.”

Assumptions :
I. Some people misuse the alarm chain.
II. On certain occasions, people may want to stop a running train.


Option”E” is correct

Clearly, the penalty is imposed to prevent people from misusing the alarm chain. This means that some people misuse it. So, I is implicit. The alarm chain is provided to stop the running train in times of urgency. So, II is also implicit.

38. Statement : If it is easy to become an engineer, I don’t want to be an engineer.

Assumptions :
I. An individual aspires to be professional.
II. One desires to achieve a thing which is hard earned.


Option”B” is correct

Clearly, nothing is mentioned about the professional nature of the job. So, I is not implicit. The statement hints that one rejects a thing that is easy to achieve. So, II is implicit.

39. Statement : The concession in rail fares for the journey to hill stations has been cancelled because it is not needed for people who can spend their holidays there.

Assumptions :
I. Railways should give concession only to needy persons.
II. Railways should not encourage people to spend their holidays at hill stations.


Option”A” is correct

The statement mentions that concessions should not be given to people who can afford to spend holidays in hill stations. This means they should be given only to needy persons. So, I is implicit. But, II does not follow from the statement and is not implicit.

40. Statement : “The bridge was built at the cost of Rs. 128 crores and even civil bus service is not utilizing it, what a pity to see it grossly underutilized.” – A citizen’s view on a new flyover linking east and west sides of a suburb.

Assumptions :
I. The building of such bridges does not serve any public objective.
II. There has to be some accountability and utility of money spent on public projects.


Option”B” is correct

Clearly, the statement expresses grave concern over a newly-built flyover not being utilized by public. This implies that such projects need to be taken up only after working out their utility and that the huge expenditure incurred on building such structures is worthwhile only if they prove useful for the public. Thus, only II is implicit.

    The shrunken size is a big deal but let’s be honest It’s nothing compared to the biggest news of the link day which is that Rolex made one of these 36mm Explorers in two-tone metal steel and gold. You simply could not have drawn up a watch more in line with my horological sensibilities. When the news broke yesterday morning and I saw the first image of the two-tone I let out an audible gasp. This was at 600 AM and I may or may not have awakened both my wife and my dog.
