Multiple choice

Directions: In the following question, an issue is raised and two arguments are advanced; one in favour and one against. You have to decide which argument is strong and which one is weak. Remember a strong argument is both important and relevant and a weak argument relates to an unimportant aspect and has little relevance to the core issue.

Issue: Is destiny everything in life? Arguments: I. Yes. Most of the time in life, things don't happen the way we will them to happen. This can be explained only by the power of destiny. II. No. Destiny is subservient to hard work, patience and faith.

  1. If only argument I is strong

  2. If only argument II is strong

  3. If neither argument I nor II is strong

  4. If both the arguments are strong

I is a weak statement because even if this is true to an extent, it cannot make destiny 'everything' in life'.  II acknowledges some role of destiny but takes out its pre-eminence.
