Correct option is D
Given:
Statement:
Is winning more important than participation?
Arguments:
I. Yes, all sports persons are now professionals who solely depend upon the prize money for their survival.
This is a weak argument because it makes an exaggerated claim ("all sports persons") which is factually incorrect.
Many athletes earn from salaries, sponsorships, and other sources besides prize money.
Also, it doesn't directly address whether winning is more important than participation.
II. No, cricketers in India earn more from endorsements than from match fee.
This is a weak argument because It talks only about cricketers in India, ignoring other sports and countries
Earning from endorsements is typically tied to a player's success (winning) rather than just participation
It doesn't effectively counter the importance of winning vs participation.
Thus, the correct option is (d) If neither argument I nor II is strong.
