Direction: In making decisions about important questions, it is desirable to be able to distinguish between ''Strong'' arguments and ''Weak'' arguments insofar as they relate to the question. ''Strong'' arguments are those which are both important and directly related to the question. ''Weak'' arguments are those which are of minor importance and also may not be directly related to the question or may be related to a trivial aspect of the question.

- if only argument II is strong
- if either I or II is strong
- if both I and II are strong
Correct Option: A
I is strong because the backlog is a cause for concern.
II is not strong because it is difficult to believe that strike is ''the only meaningful weapon '' to achieve the said objective.
