Statement : In crowded public places like market, buses, trains, one should cover his/her mouth while coughing and sneezing.

Argument I : Germs of deadly diseases such as tuberculosis spread through droplets of cough/sneeze.
Argument II : Chances of getting infected from deadly diseases such as tuberculosis is high if you visit crowded public places frequently.

  • A.Argument I is strong
  • B.Argument II is strong
  • C.Arguments I and II are strong
  • D.Neither argument I nor II is strong

Answer: C

Arguments I and II are both strong.

Argument I gives the scientific reason for the advice: diseases such as tuberculosis spread through droplets released when people cough or sneeze, so covering the mouth stops the droplets reaching others.

Argument II explains why the advice matters most in crowded places: with many people close together, the chance of infection is high. Both arguments are relevant and directly support the statement, so options rating only one of them as strong, or neither, are wrong.
