General English and Verbal Reasoning Test 3
Directions: In the question a statement is followed by two arguments I and II. You have to decide which argument is strong and which one is weak. Remember a strong argument is both important and relevant whereas a weak argument relates to an unimportant aspect and has little relevance to the core issue.
Should Government freeze pay scales and salary of all private or public sector and its own employees to contain inflation?
Arguments:
I. Yes, all over the world this is considered as a sure way to contain inflation.
II. No, the government should control market forces to keep check on the prices.
Argument II is weak as it ignores an important measure to contain inflation, a check on money supply. It does not even specify how government should control market forces.
