Read the passage below and answer the following questions. Much of what goes by the name of pleasure is simply an effort to destroy consciousness. If one started by asking; What is man? What are his needs? How can he best express himself? One would discover that merely having the power to avoid work and live one’s life from birth to death in electric light and to the tune of tinned music is not a reason for doing so. Man needs warmth, society, leisure, comfort and security: he also needs solitude, creative work and the sense of wonder. If he recognized this he could use the products of science and industrialism eclectically, applying always the same test: does this make me more human or less human? He would then learn that the highest happiness does not lie in relaxing, resting, playing poker, drinking and making love simultaneously.
The main point the author conveys is that
Natural populations of animals in the wild increase in numbers exponentially
All members of a species are in violent competition with one another
In the struggle to survive, the fittest survive
Members of one generation of a population are all more or less alike
None of these
Correct option 5: None of these
The passage centers around the idea that pleasure should align with human needs and true happiness isn't found in escapism. Here is an explanation of the options:
- Option 1: Talks about animal population growth, unrelated to human consciousness and happiness.
- Option 2: Discusses internal species competition, which is not in line with the passage's focus on human needs and pleasures.
- Option 3: Involves survival of the fittest, a concept that doesn't relate directly to human fulfillment and consciousness.
- Option 4: Implies similarity among generations, lacking relevance to individual human needs.
The main point is understanding human needs for true happiness beyond mere survival or competition concepts.
The passage focuses on human happiness, so none of the options directly relate to its main point.
