 Statement : Apart from the entertainment value of television, cannot its educational value be ignored

Assumptions : I. People take television to be a means of entertainment only. 

II. The educational value of television is not realised properly.


A) If only assumption I is Implicit

B) If only assumption II is implicit

C) If either I or II is implicit

D) If neither I nor II is implicit

E) If both I and II are implicit

Answer:

Option E
