Statement–Argument — Do children adopted from poor families love their new rich parents like their own? Arguments: I) Yes; they are loved, cared for, and provided with comforts. II) No; in the criminal world, they become selfish and hard-boiled. Choose the strong argument(s).

Introduction / Context:Affection in adoptive families varies widely. Strong arguments should avoid universal claims and irrelevant premises; love is not guaranteed by material comforts, and references to the “criminal world” are off-topic.

Given Data / Assumptions:

• Child–parent bonding depends on attachment, stability, and care quality.
• Material comforts do not determine love; neglect/abuse can occur in any income bracket.
• “Criminal world” is irrelevant and stereotyping.

Concept / Approach:Argument I assumes comforts ensure love—an oversimplification; it may help but is not decisive. Argument II is an irrelevant, stigmatizing generalization. Thus both are weak.

Step-by-Step Solution:

Verification / Alternative check:A strong approach would discuss attachment theory or adjustment supports; neither argument does.

Why Other Options Are Wrong:Crediting either would legitimize weak or irrelevant reasoning.

Common Pitfalls:Assuming money ensures love; importing unrelated social stereotypes.

Final Answer:if neither I nor II is strong.
