Statement :

“Smoking is injurious to health”-a warning printed on the cigarette packets.
Assumptions :

I. People read printed matter on the cigarette packet.
II. People take careful note of warning.
III. Non-smoking promotes health.

Solution

A special warning has been printed to caution people against adverse effects of smoking. So, II is implicit while I is not. Also, the fact that smoking is injurious to health does not imply that non-smoking promotes health. So, III is not implicit.
