Correct option is B
Statement:
"If you are a computer engineer, we want you as our senior consultant" — an advertisement by company XYZ.
Assumptions:
1. Engineers are expected to be better performers by company XYZ.
· The statement does not mention or imply anything about performance expectations of engineers. It only states that the company wants computer engineers for a senior consultant role, but it doesn't imply that engineers are considered better performers compared to other professionals. Hence, Assumption 1 is not implicit.
2. The company XYZ needs a senior consultant.
· This assumption is clearly implicit. The company is advertising the role of a senior consultant, which indicates a need for such a position.
Conclusion:
Only Assumption 2 is implicit, as the company is expressing a need for a senior consultant through the advertisement.
Correct Answer:
(b) Only Assumption 2 is Implicit.
