Question

The example of the man who takes to drink is used to illustrate which of the following ideas in the paragraph?

• A. foolish thoughts
• B. the sloveliness of language
• C. political and economic causes
• D. an effect becoming a cause
• E. bad influences

Answer 1

The correct option is D an effect becoming a cause

Option D, an effect becoming the cause is the correct answer in the analogy that the author has drawn. The passage carefully describes how the an idea can be driven home with the effect affecting anything so much to become the cause of its destruction. Options A,B,C and E are not supported by the text, nor are they coherent with the text, and thus, are wrong.
