Statement: "If you want timely completion of work, provide independent cabins," - An employee tells the Director of a Company.
Assumptions:
- There are not enough cabins.
- Others' presence hinders timely completion of work.
Answer: Option
Explanation:
The statement clearly hints at the need for cabins. So, I is implicit. Since independent cabins are expected to improve efficiency, it means that others' presence hinders work. So, II is also implicit.

Suppose that the work place is so spicy, but co-worker is so annoying or so stinky. This should be enough reason to ask for an independent cabin. Put it differently, assumption II alone is sufficient to make the request. Therefore, either I or II is implicit.
