    Question

    In each question a statement is given, followed by two

    assumptions, numbered I and II. An assumption is supposed or taken for granted. You have to consider the statement and assumptions and decide which of the assumptions is implicit in the statement. Statement: The Department of Education has decided to introduce mandatory coding and data science modules in the secondary school curriculum to prepare students for the future job market. Assumptions: I. The current curriculum does not sufficiently cover the technical skills required for future employment opportunities. II. Students are capable of learning and applying coding and data science concepts at the secondary school level.
    A Only I is implicit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Both I and II are implicit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Neither I nor II is implicit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Either I or II is implicit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The statement discusses the introduction of mandatory new modules (coding and data science) specifically to prepare students for the future job market. Assumption I is implicit — the decision to introduce these new modules to "prepare" students implies that the existing curriculum is lacking in these specific areas. Assumption II is also implicit — for a department to make a module "mandatory," they must take it for granted that the students at that educational level have the cognitive ability to learn those subjects.
