Statement: "The park will remain closed every Monday for cleaning".
Which assumption is implicit?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
An assumption is an unstated premise on which the statement is based.
• The decision to close the park specifically for cleaning implies that the cleaning process requires an empty space or is carried out more effectively without the presence of visitors. Therefore, "Cleaning can be done better when the park is closed" is implicit.
• Options (A), (C), and (D) make extreme assumptions about visitor behavior or cleaning schedules on other days, which cannot be logically deduced from the given statement.
Hence, the correct answer is (B).
