Question 160

Consider the given statement and decide which of the given assumptions is/are correct.
Statement:
Students who waste paper will have to plant ten trees daily.
Assumptions:
I. There is a shortage of trees in the environment.
II. Unless students are taught the significance of trees, they will not stop paper wastage.

Solution

The main statement talks about students wasting paper and the need to plant trees. 

Hence, we can say that there is a shortage of trees as the students are made to plant them. 

However, we cannot say that this will teach them the significance of paper. This might be a mere compensatory step. Hence, 1 is implicit, and 2 is not.
