33.

Statement: Delink degrees with jobs. Then, boys will think twice before joining colleges.

Assumptions:

  1. Boys join college education for getting jobs.
  2. A degree is of no use for getting a job.
  3. Girls do not try for jobs.

Only I is implicit
Only I and II are implicit
Only II and III are implicit
Only I and III are implicit
All are implicit
Answer: Option
Explanation:
The statement mentions that if the degrees have no connection with jobs, boys will consider and reconsider whether they should join college. So, I is implicit. In the present system, degrees are not delinked with jobs. This means that job is not available without degrees. So, II is not implicit. Nothing about the girls is mentioned in the statement. So, III is also not implicit.
