Statement: "For a safer world, there is a crucial requirement to teach self-defence to girls from an early age, so that they grow up to become self-reliant, strong and confident individuals." Assumption I. If girls are not taught self-defence, they cannot become confident individuals. This assumption extends the statement to a generalization that self-defence is a prerequisite for confidence. While the statement emphasizes the importance of self-defence in fostering self-reliance, strength, and confidence, it does not explicitly claim that self-defence is the only way for girls to become confident individuals. Thus, Assumption I stretch the statement's intention and is not necessarily implicit in the statement. Assumption  II. If girls learn self-defence, they would be more prepared to face any unforeseen circumstance. This assumption is closely aligned with the statement's core message. By advocating for self-defence education from an early age, the statement implies that such training prepares individuals to handle unforeseen circumstances with more confidence and strength. Therefore, Assumption II is a reasonable inference from the statement and can be considered implicit in it. Conclusion: Assumption II is implicit in the statement, whereas Assumption I is not necessarily implied.
