Solutions

S8. Ans.(b)
Sol. Clearly, officers are paid duly for the jobs they do. So, they must do it honestly. Thus, argument II alone holds.

Argument II highlights a different aspect. The internal problems of a nation should not debar it from strengthening international ties. So, argument II is vague.
S10. Ans.(a)
Sol. The armed forces must consist of physically strong and mentally mature individuals to take care of defence properly. So, argument I holds strong. Clearly, argument II holds no relevance.
