Statement: "You are hereby appointed as a programmer with a probation period of one year and your performance will be reviewed at the end of the period for confirmation." - A line in an appointment letter.
Assumptions:
- The performance of an individual generally is not known at the time of appointment offer.
- Generally an individual tries to prove his worth in the probation period.

Only option 1 is correct because, in 2 assumptions, it is talking about the individual worth how can we assume that the individual is trying to prove his worth there is no clue about this. That's why only assumption 1 is correct.
