    Solution

    Solution Statement I: The word "play" is correctly used as a noun, referring to a theatrical performance. Statement II: The word "play" is incorrectly used here. The proper phrase should be "ensure the longevity" or "maintain the longevity." Using "play" in this context does not make sense.
