2️⃣ The government already has funds allocated for this initiative.
Which assumption(s) is/are implicit?

BOnly 1
COnly 2
DNeither 1 nor 2
Step-by-Step Solution
  1. Step 1: Identify intended outcome

    The proposal implies passengers benefit from free Wi-Fi during travel.
  2. Step 2: Test Assumption 1

    If Wi-Fi didn’t help passengers, offering it would serve no purpose — benefit is implicit.
  3. Step 3: Test Assumption 2

    The statement doesn’t mention any existing fund — that’s a detail beyond the assumption scope.
  4. Final Answer:

    Only 1 is implicit. → Option B
  5. Quick Check:

    Benefit is essential; budget availability can be arranged later ✅
Quick Trick: Benefit is always implicit; funding readiness is not necessarily assumed.
