Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 4 : A

Argument I is strong.

Allowing women to serve in combat units is a positive step towards gender equality.

Argument II is not strong.

Emotion does not depend on the gender of a person. Moreover, it is an irrelevant argument against allowing women in combat units.

Clearly, only argument I is strong.

Hence, ‘A’ is the correct answer.
