CorrectNot quiteAnswer A

Correct answer: A

Explanation

  1. I follows: the statement links the rise in cases to standing water in the plots, and draining it removes the place where mosquitoes breed.

  2. II does not follow: moving a whole ward out of their homes for months is impractical and extreme when the source of the problem can be removed.

  3. So only I follows.
