Read the passage below and answer the following questions. If the more articulate members of a community formed a coherent and united class with a common interest, democracy would probably replace in to the rule of that intelligent, educated minority; even as it is, the democracies of the modern world are much closer to this fate than they are to the much-canvassed dangers of mob rule. Far from oppressing the cultured minority, or any other minorities, democracy gives more of them more scope to have their way than any other system does. This is the lesson of experience. It might also have been derived from an analysis of the concept of democracy, if the concept had been accurately analyzed.
What emerges as the truth from a reading of the paragraph is that
Forms of government other than democracy give the mobs great scope for self expression.
Democracy provides greater scope for mob rule.
Democracy provides greater scope for the rule of the minority.
Forms of government other than democracy give the educated minority greater scope for self expression.
- The passage suggests that democracy, contrary to the idea of mob rule, often ends up being influenced by the more articulate, intelligent minority in the community.
- Option 1 suggests non-democratic forms allow mobs more expression, which the passage does not support.
- Option 2 implies democracy encourages mob rule, which the passage argues against.
- Option 3 states that democracy gives the minority more scope to rule, aligning with the passage's argument.
- Option 4 claims non-democratic systems favor the educated minority, which contradicts the passage's findings.
