SSC CGL (Prelims) General: Assumption questions with solutions

Q1. Statement: Online education improves accessibility but reduces social interaction. Assumptions: I. Online education is widely used. II. Social interaction is important in education. III. Online education is better than offline education.

1. Only I and II
2. Only II
3. Only I and III
4. All I, II and III

Answer: Only II

The statement suggests that reducing social interaction is a drawback, which assumes that social interaction matters in education. It does not require online education to be widely used, nor does it claim online education is better than offline education. Therefore, only assumption II is implicit.
