Question

A statement is followed by two assumptions (I) and (II). Consider the statement and the given assumptions and decide which of the assumptions is implicit in the statement? Statement: We must discourage wars even if it is known that the majority of the victims might have been creating a lot of trouble for the peace-loving people. Assumptions:

• A. Some people create a lot of trouble for the remaining people who love peace and prosperity.
• B. If only assumption (I) is implicit
• C. If only assumption (II) is implicit
• D. If both (I) and (II) are implicit

Hint:

In "assumption" problems, look for what the statement is implicitly suggesting and check if the assumptions align with that logic.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

- The statement suggests discouraging wars, even if the majority of victims were causing trouble for peace-loving people. This implies that the statement focuses on the peace-loving individuals, and some people create trouble for others.
- Assumption (I) is valid as it talks about the trouble-creating people, which aligns with the statement.
- Assumption (II) is not explicitly implied, as the statement does not confirm that the majority of trouble-makers were killed in the wars.
