Question: Consider the statement given below as true:
“The failure of men to transition from being shoppers and consumers to producers and creators has implications about their manliness.”
Which of the following statements would concur with the above idea and the theme of the main paragraph?
According to the main paragraph, “the hope for hope that an altered state of being may result keeps the cycle of desire going”. The aspect of desire has been given prime importance in the main paragraph. The main paragraph also discusses the factors that influence desire. Therefore, objects that are likely to fulfill desire will appeal more to people and will sell more.
Although option 1 addresses the idea presented, it has no bearings with the main paragraph.
The tendencies of boys has nothing to do with the idea or the main paragraph. Eliminate option 2.
Option 3 contradicts the presented idea.
“Do-it-yourself kits” have not been mentioned in both, the idea presented and the main paragraph.
Hence, the correct answer is option 4.
