Why, according to the passage, do principles of justice need to be based on an original agreement?
Explanation:
One may evaluate options 1, 2 and 5 as likely answers. Options 3 and 4 are quickly eliminated. Option 3 is eliminated because ‘fair in order to be just’ is vague does not relate to the ‘original agreement’ included in the question. Option 4 talks about the ‘evolution’ of social institutions which is completely new to the ideas presented in the passage. Between options 1, 2 and 5 option 2 is the best answer because options 1 and 5 are partial. Option 1 leaves out ‘original agreement’ which is required to answer the question, and option 5 leaves out the idea of ‘fairness’ which is the crux of the passage. Hence, the correct asnwer is option 2.
