Directions : In each of the following questions a statement is given, followed by two conclusions. Give answer : Statement : Lock your valuables in a cupboard and call everybody gentleman.< Assumptions : I. Valuables locked in cupboard cannot be stolen. II. Stealing is a crime.

The correct answer is: Only assumption I is implicit.

The statement “Lock your valuables in a cupboard and call everybody gentleman” does not imply that stealing is a crime. It is possible to lock your valuables in a cupboard and still be robbed, even if the robber is a gentleman. The statement only implies that valuables locked in a cupboard are less likely to be stolen.

Assumption I is implicit in the statement because the statement suggests that locking your valuables in a cupboard will prevent them from being stolen. Assumption II is not implicit in the statement because the statement does not say anything about whether or not stealing is a crime.

Here is a more detailed explanation of each option:

• Option A: Only assumption I is implicit. This is the correct answer.
• Option B: Only assumption II is implicit. This is not the correct answer because the statement does not say anything about whether or not stealing is a crime.
• Option C: Either I or II is implicit. This is not the correct answer because the statement only implies assumption I.
• Option D: Neither I nor II is implicit. This is the incorrect answer because the statement does imply assumption I.
• Option E: Both I and II are implicit. This is the incorrect answer because the statement only implies assumption I.
