Question

Which of the following arguments is strong with respect to the statement?

**Statement:** An apple a day keeps a doctor away — Instruction given by the Health Ministry of India.

**Arguments:**

I. Every individual should consume an apple daily to maintain physical and mental fitness.

II. Real apple juice flavors should be banned as they are contaminated with harmful chemicals.

III. It is not feasible for every individual to consume an apple daily because apples are expensive during the summer season.

IV. An individual can stay healthy by eating green vegetables and other affordable fruits as alternatives.

Accepted Answer

**Solution:**

1. The statement is a health advisory suggesting that eating an apple daily can help maintain good health.

2. Argument I suggests everyone should eat an apple daily to stay fit. This is an opinion and not necessarily a strong argument because the statement is a general health tip, not a strict rule.

3. Argument II talks about banning apple juice flavors due to contamination. This is unrelated to the statement about eating apples daily and does not support or oppose it.

4. Argument III states that consuming apples daily is not possible for everyone due to cost in summer. This is a practical concern but does not strengthen the original statement; it rather questions its feasibility.

5. Argument IV suggests that health can be maintained by eating vegetables and other fruits, which is an alternative view and does not strengthen the original statement.

6. Since none of the arguments directly support or strongly justify the statement, none of them are strong arguments in this context.

**Answer:** None of these
