Question 14.
Which one of the following statements could be inferred as supporting the arguments of the passage?
Question Explanation
The passage specifically states that "critical theory of technology regards technologies as an environment rather than as a collection of tools," and that "technologies shape their inhabitants" in a way that is similar to laws and customs, which represent certain interests and values of those who live under their sway. There is no mention of the role of nature in shaping society or determining the limits of society's control over history, so options C and D cannot be supporting points. The statement in A wouldn't support the discussion in the passage because the author suggests that institutions such as laws and customs represent certain dimensions of human nature rather than human culture.
Hence, Option B is the correct choice.
