  • Question

  • Statement: Should children be prevented completely from watching television?

    Arguments:

    1. No. We get vital information regarding education through television.
    2. Yes. It hampers the study of children.
    3. Yes. Young children are misguided by certain programmes featuring sex and violence.
    4. No. This is the only way to educate the masses.


  • Options
  • A. Only I, II and III are strong
  • B. Only I is strong
  • C. Only I, II and IV are strong
  • D. Only I and II are strong
  • E. Only I, III and IV are strong

  • Correct Answer
  • Only I is strong 

    Explanation
    Clearly, television offers various educational programmes which are of great practical value to the students. So, it serves as a means (but it is not the 'only' means) to educate the masses. Thus, I holds strong while IV does not. Besides, the demerits of watching television, mentioned in II and III, may be done away with by allowing children to watch selected programmes on television, according to a set schedule. So, neither II nor III holds strong.
