Q 97. Direction: Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer to each question out of the four alternatives. Something is radically wrong with the entire structure of human relationships that makes man delight in killing man, whether it be in the name of civilization or religion or anything else. Two wrongs do not make a right, hatred must beget hatred; and what is braught into being by violence can and will always be destroyed by greater violence. It is this fundamental truth that women have got to bring home to the people in their respective countries. No peace treaties can avail - that have revenge, as their basis and self-righteous arrogance and hypocrisy in the so-called victors. Women are the natural preservers of life. Life grows from within them. They could make their influence felt if they would be big enough to rise above the walls of narrow nationalism that confine us today. Just as the communism calls the workers of the world to unite, let the women of the world unite and stake all for a life worth living. Which of the following expresses most accurately the idea contained in the opening sentence of the passage?
Man destroying another man is a painful practice
