Question and options

Directions: In the question, a statement is given, followed by two assumptions numbered I and II. You have to consider the statement and the following assumptions and decide which of the assumptions is implicit in the statement. Give answer:

Statement: If you have any problems, bring them to me.
Assumptions: I. You have some problems.
II. I can solve any problem.
  1. If only assumption I is implicit.
  2. If only assumption II is implicit.
  3. If either I or II is implicit.
  4. If neither I nor II is implicit.

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: B - If only assumption II is implicit.
'If you have any problems' does not assume you have them, so I is not implicit. Inviting the problems assumes the speaker can solve them, so II is implicit.
