Statement: Children are influenced more by their teachers nowadays.
Assumptions:
- The children consider teachers as their models.
- A large amount of children's time is spent in school.
Answer: Option
Explanation:
Clearly, it is because children consider teachers as their model that they are more influenced by them. So, I is implicit. It is not necessary that the children are influenced by teachers because they spend much time in school. So, II is not implicit.

According to me, option E is correct as both are implicit.
For assumption 2 the expis given above and for assumption 1 children consider their teachers as their role models mostly just because they spend most of the time in the school with a single elder (their teacher).

@All.
In schools where children spent a lot of time they get affected by the environment and learn discipline. Everything in school is done by teacher. Without influencing it is not easy to control huge mass. Children never consider teacher as a role model like Sachin Tendulkar or Gandhiji. But they listen to the teacher because this was taught to them. Pre-installed in their brain and some deny to listen.
So, As per my logic, it is option B.

Actually spending more time influences students, and not every student consider his teacher as his model.

I think the answer should be (E). Both are implicit and you tend to get influenced by someone with whom you spend your maximum time.

One tends to be influenced by the company that one spends time with. And that-he might be the reason that he or she may develop a role mode looks but the latter is not necessarily true. So I think B should be the answer.

I think option B should be chosen, because influence is not choosing them as models.
Influencing happens first and choosing them happens after influencing. Which means assumption I is a 'following statement' and not 'an assumption' to the given statement.
