Please provide section wise analysis, It helps to focus a specific are where I am getting less score. e.g. Consider topic Change The Voice, mention no of attempt, correct attempt and incorrect attempt. This will help for better analysis.

Question:
DIRECTIONS: Read the passages carefully and choose the most appropriate answer to the questions out of the four alternatives.


The Ideals and objective of yesterday are still the ideals of today, but they have lost some of their luster and, even as one seems to go towards them, they lose the shining beauty which had warmed the heart and vitalized the body. Evil triumphed often enough, but what was far worse was the coarsening and distortion of what had seemed so right. Was human nature so essentially bad that it would take ages of training, through suffering and misfortune, before it could behave reasonably and raise man above that creature of lust and violence and deceit that he now was? And, meanwhile, was every effort to change it radically in the present or the near future doomed to failure?   


Ends and means: were they tied up inseparably, acting and reacting on each other, the wrong means distorting and sometimes even destroying the end in view? But the right means might well be beyond the capacity of infirm and selfish nature.


What then was one to do? Not to act was a complete confession of failure and a submission to evil; to act meant often enough a compromise with some form of that evil, with all the untoward consequences that such compromises result in.

What will be the result of one’s actions in a world of the parameters given in this passage?

Options:
A) a world full of evil
B) a halfway between right and evil with all dire consequences of evil
C) a world of anarchy
D) a compromise between evil and right with man shaking off the consequences of the evil
Solution:
Solution: (b) The answer is implied in the last sentence of the passage.
