Statement : Today I must satisfy myself only by looking at a pink headed duck in an encyclopedia.

Assumptions :
I. Pink headed ducks are as good as extinct now.
II. People refer to encyclopedia to know only about things which do not exist now.

Answer & Solution
Correct Answer: Option A
Since the narrator talks of satisfying himself by just looking at a picture in encyclopaedia, it means that pink headed ducks are not to be seen alive. So, I is implicit. But II does not follow from the statement and is not implicit.
