Let's analyze the assumptions based on the given statement.
Statement: The government has instructed all the private schools in the city to maintain the current fees for at least two more years.
Assumptions:
-
Assumption I: The authorities of private schools may not follow the government instruction as they are not dependent on government funds.
- This assumption suggests that the private schools may ignore the government's instruction because they do not rely on government funding. It is implicit because the statement implies that the schools have the freedom to follow or not follow the instructions.
-
Assumption II: The parents of the students of private schools of the city may still be eager to pay higher fees.
- This assumption is about the willingness of parents to pay higher fees despite the government's instruction. This assumption is not directly connected to the government's instruction; rather, it speculates on parents' behavior, which is not implicit in the statement.
Conclusion: Only Assumption I is implicit, as it directly relates to the possibility of the schools not following the government instruction due to their independence from government funds.
Answer: 4 - if only Assumption I is implicit.

Assumptions Analysis:
Assumption I: The authorities of private schools may not follow the government instruction as they are not dependent on government funds.
Assumption II: The parents of the students of private schools of the city may still be eager to pay higher fees.
Explanation:
Assumption I Analysis:
- The statement mentions that the government has instructed private schools to maintain the current fees for at least two more years.
- As private schools are not dependent on government funds, there is a possibility that the authorities may choose not to follow the government's instruction.
- However, this assumption is not implicit in the statement as it does not provide any indication of the authorities' willingness to comply or not.
Assumption II Analysis:
- The statement does not provide any information about the parents' willingness to pay higher fees.
- It is not necessary that the parents would be eager to pay higher fees, as they might expect the schools to adhere to the government's instructions.
- Hence, this assumption is also not implicit in the statement.
Therefore, neither Assumption I nor Assumption II is implicit in the given statement. The statement simply states the government's instruction without providing any information regarding the actions of the authorities or the parents.
