there is no talk of admiration or love for the children in the passage.So just by seeing blossoms in the option C, it can not be ticked as a wright answer.
Option B give fair idea of promise and related to context.

Question:
DIRECTIONS: You have passage with 5 questions following passage. Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer to each question out of the four alternatives.


Nehru's was a many-sided personality. He enjoyed reading and writing books as much as he enjoyed fighting political and social evils or resisting tyranny. In him, the scientist and the humanist were held in perfect balance. While he kept looking at social problems from a scientific standpoint, he never forgot that we should nourish the total man. As a scientist, he refused to believe in a benevolent power interested in men's affairs; but, as a self-proclaimed non-believer, he loved affirming his faith in life and the beauty of nature. He adored children. Unlike Wordsworth, he did not see them trailing clouds of glory from their recent sojourn in heaven. He saw them as blossoms of promise and renewal, the only hope for mankind.

Pandit Nehru thought that children-
Options:
A) were trailing clouds of glory
B) held promise for a better future
C) were like flowers, to be loved and admired
D) held no hope for mankind
Solution:
According to the passage, Pandit Nehru saw children as blossoms of promise and renewal, the only hope for mankind.
