  • Question
  • Statement: Should women be given equal opportunity in the matter of employment in every field?

    Arguments:

    1. Yes. They are equally capable.
    2. No. They have to shoulder household responsibilities.
    3. Yes. They should also go into the outside world.


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

  • Correct Answer
  • Only I and III are strong 

    Explanation
    In present times, women are being imparted education at par with the men and are capable of competing with them in all professions and fields. So, argument I holds. Also, women cannot be confined to the household and kept away from the challenges of the outside world against their will. They too have the right to be self-dependent. Besides, present-day women are well looking to outside jobs together with the household jobs. So, argument III holds while II does not.
