Direction: In making decisions about important questions, it is desirable to distinguish between a 'strong' argument and a 'weak' argument.

A 'strong' argument must be both important and directly related to the question. A 'weak' argument may not be directly related to the question and may be of minor importance or may be related to the trivial aspect of the question. Each question below is followed by two arguments numbered I and II. You have to decide which of the arguments is 'strong' and which is 'weak'.
