Given below a statement followed by assumptions numbered । and II. You have to consider the statement followed by the given assumptions and decide which of the assumptions are implicit in the statement. Statement: Where there is a will, there is a way. Assumptions: I. People make excuses to postpone something. II. More important is the intention to do something. Correct Answer Only assumption II is implicit.

The statement implies that if a person has the will to do something, that person will find a way to do it.

  • From the given statement, it cannot be determined if people make excuses to delay things. The statement does not talk about it. So, assumption I is not implicit.
  • As explained above, the will i.e. the intention to do something is important and that helps in finding a way to do the task. Thus, assumption II is implicit.

Hence the correct answer is option 4.
