Instructions

Read the following passage and answer the two questions that follow.
We stand before this great world. The truth of our life depends upon our attitude of mind towards it - an attitude which is formed by our habit of dealing with it according to the special circumstance of our surroundings and our temperaments. It guides our attempts to establish relations with the universe either by conquest or by union, either through the cultivation of power or through that of sympathy. And thus, in our realization of the truth of existence, we put our emphasis either upon the principle of dualism or upon the principle of unity.

Question 6.

Which of the following statements can be BEST inferred from the passage?

A
Conquest and union are two ways of establishing relations with the universe
B
Principle of dualism is inferior to the principle of unity.
C
Our habits and surroundings determine the truth of our life.
D
War and conquest are a part of the truth of our life.

Question Explanation

Text Explanation

The passage primarily deals with the two ways our attitudes help us in realising the truth of life: " It guides our attempts to establish relations with the universe either by conquest or by union"

Which is stated in option A. 

Looking at the other options:

Option B: The text does not claim that one way is better than the other, and hence, this can be easily eliminated. 

Option C: It slightly distorts what is given in the text. Our habits/attitudes make us either conquer the world or be one with it, and that union or conquest determines the truth about our lives. 

Option D: The passage is not dealing with the idea of war and conquest. The conquest in the text is not literal but along the mental and spiritual lines. 

Option E: This form of correlation is also not implied in the text and can be eliminated easily. 

Therefore, Option A is the correct answer.
