Correct Answer: Neither I nor II is an assumption
Solution : Let's analyse the assumptions – Assumption I: People generally laugh. According to the statement, when we laugh then the whole world will laugh with us. But it does not state that people are always generally laughing. Therefore, this assumption is false. Assumption II: Laughter symbolizes happiness. According to the statement, when we laugh then the whole world will laugh with us. But it does not state that every laughter symbolizes happiness. It is not necessary that behind every laugh there is happiness. Therefore, this assumption is false.
So, neither assumption I nor assumption II follows. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
