Question
Statement : The government has introduced new
regulations aimed at reducing plastic waste in urban areas by restricting the use of single-use plastics. Assumptions: I. Single-use plastics contribute significantly to plastic waste in urban areas. II. The government believes that reducing the use of single-use plastics will lead to a significant decrease in plastic waste. III. The restrictions on single-use plastics will be enough to tackle the overall plastic waste problem in urban areas. IV. The government is likely to enforce the ban on plastic waste strictly in urban areas. Which of the given assumption(s) is(are) implicit in the above statement?Solution
Assumption I is implicit because the statement mentions the reduction of single-use plastics to tackle plastic waste, which suggests the significant contribution of single-use plastics. Assumption II is implicit because the statement indicates that the government is introducing regulations aimed at reducing plastic waste. Assumption III is not explicitly mentioned, but the idea of restricting plastic is implied to help reduce plastic waste. Assumption IV is implicit because it is reasonable to expect the government will enforce the restriction in urban areas. Therefore, (3) is the correct answer.
