Question Detail

Each of the following questions contains a small paragraph followed by a question on it. Read each paragraph carefully and answer the question given below it.

To forgive an injury is often considered to be a sign of weakness; it is really a sign of strength. It is easy to allow oneself to be carried away by resentment and hate into an act of vengeance; but it takes a strong character to restrain those natural passions. The man who forgives an injury proves himself to be the superior of the man who wronged himself and puts the wrong-doer to shame.

The passage best supports the statement that:

• the sufferer alone knows the intensity of his sufferings.
• people tend to forgive the things happened in the past.
• natural passions are difficult to suppress.
• mercy is the noblest form of revenge.
• a person with calm and composed nature has depth of thought and vision.
