Just see the line: Ambition, which is inspiration of activity. It clearly indicates option D

Question:

DIRECTIONS: Read the following passage carefully and choose the most appropriate answer to the question out of the four alternatives.


This rule of always trying to do things as well as one can do them has an important bearing upon the problem of ambition. No man or woman should be without ambition, which is the inspiration of activity. But if one allows ambition to drive one to attempt things which are beyond one’s own personal capacity, then unhappiness will result. If one imagines that one can do everything better than other people, then envy and jealousy, those twin monsters, will come to sadden one’s days. But if one concentrates one’s attention upon developing one’s own special capacities, the things one is best at, then one does not worry over much if other people are more successful.

Which one of the following statements is correct?

Options:
A) There is a close relationship between ambition and activity
B) Ambition and activity belong to two different areas
C) Ambition is useless
D) Activity is responsible for ambition
Solution:
Ex: The answer can be supported by these lines of the passage - No man or woman should be without ambition, which is the inspiration of activity.
