Solution

The correct option is C Pointing out a general weakness
The passage talks about what is the meaning of the word 'liberty' and ow we should respect it keeping in mind liberty of others and social conduct. The given line in the sentence is a general weakness on part of all human beings where we focus more on the imperfections of others and tend to overlook others. This is not the main point in the passage nor is it a remedy for any problem. This line does not counter any misconception either. So, the most appropriate answer is option C) pointing out a general weakness.

Q. Let me put it more clearly, since no one will believe that a thirteen-year-old girl is completely alone in the world. And I’m not. I have loving parents and a sixteen-year-old sister, and there are about thirty people I can call friends. I have a family, loving aunts and a good home. No, on the surface I seem to have everything, except my one true friend. All I think about when I’m with friends is having a good time. I can’t bring myself to talk about anything but ordinary everyday things. We don’t seem to be able to get any closer, and that’s the problem. Maybe it’s my fault that we don’t confide in each other. In any case, that’s just how things are, and unfortunately, they’re not liable to change. This is why I’ve started the diary.

‘they’re not liable to change.’

Find the word that can replace the word ‘liable’ without changing the meaning of the sentence.
