Option 2 : Only argument 1 is a ‘strong’ argument.

From the statement given “Should the Integrity of Wildlife Sanctuaries be maintained?”, argument I holds strong because it gives reason that we should “give endangered species a special place to live in” and that will “promote ecological balance”.

Argument II talks about generating income. That piece of information is not given in the statement. The fact is that the main purpose of wildlife sanctuary is to protect endangered species and not to generate income. So, the argument II does not hold strong.

Hence, “Only argument 1 is a ‘strong’ argument”
