English ( Master) Reading Comprehension (C)

Read the passage below and asnswer the following questions
At this stage of civilisation, when many nations are brought in to close and vital contact for good and evil, it is essential, as never before, that their gross ignorance of one another should be diminished, that they should begin to understand a little of one another's historical experience and resulting mentality. It is the fault of the English to expect the people of other countries to react as they do, to political and international situations. Our genuine goodwill and good intentions are often brought to nothing, because we expect other people to be like us. This would be corrected if we knew the history, not necessarily in detail but in broad outlines, of the social and political conditions which have given to each nation its present character.

Explanation:

- The passage discusses the importance of understanding between nations in today's interconnected world.

- It emphasizes the need to reduce ignorance and understand each other's history and mentality.

- The English often expect others to behave like them, and this is a problem that can be corrected by understanding different social and political backgrounds.

Here's what each option means:

1. Read the story of other nations - This implies a need for awareness of others' histories.

2. Have a better understanding of other nations - This matches the author's main point about understanding mentality and historical conditions.

3. Not react to other actions - This isn't suggested in the passage.

4. Have vital contacts with other nations - While relevant to the context of global interaction, it doesn't address the author's main concern of understanding.
