You have to decide which of the arguments is/are 'strong' arguments) and which is/are 'weak' arguments) and accordingly choose your answer from the alternatives given below each question.
Q1:

Statement: Should all the management institutes in the country be brought under government control? Arguments:
  1. No. The government does not have adequate resources to run such institutes effectively.
  2. No. Each institute should be given freedom to function on its own.
  3. Yes. This will enable to have standardized education for all the students.

A None is strong

B Only I, II and III are strong

C Only I and III are strong

D All are strong

E Only III is strong

ANS:A - None is strong

Explanation: Clearly, the government can pool up resources to run such institutes, if that can benefit the citizens. So, I does not hold strong. II does not provide any convincing reason. Also, it is not obligatory that government control over the institutes would ensure better education than that at present. So, both III and IV also do not hold.
