vague (Question: 275303.0 )

this is too vague a question

Question:

DIRECTIONS: In questions below, you have brief passages with questions following each passage. Read the passages carefully and choose the most appropriate answer to the questions out of the four alternatives.


To teach is to create a space in which obedience to truth is practiced. Space may sound a vague, poetic metaphor unit. We realize that it describes experiences of everyday life. We know what it means to be in a green and open field; we know what it means to be on a crowded rush hour bus. These experiences of physical space have parallels in our relations with others. In our jobs, we know what is to be pressed and crowded, our working space diminished by the urgency of deadlines and competitiveness of colleagues. But then there are times when deadlines disappear and colleagues co-operate, when everyone has a space to move, invent and produce, with energy and enthusiasm. With family and friends, we know how it feels to have unreasonable demands placed upon us, to be boxed in by the expectations of those nearest to us. But then there are times when we feel accepted for who we are (or forgiven for who we are not), times when a spouse or a child or a friend gives us the space both to be and to become.


Similar experiences of crowding and space are found in education. To sit in a class where the teacher stuffs our minds with information, organizes it with finality, insists on having the answers while being utterly disinterested in our views, and focus us into a grim competition for grades - to sit in such a class is to experience a lack of space for learning. But to study with a teacher who not only speaks but also listens, who not only answers but asks questions and welcomes our insights, who provides information and theories that do not close doors but open new ones, who encourages students to help each other learn- to study with such a teacher is to know the power of a learning space.

What does the word ‘space’ mean in the passage?

Options:
A) Poetic metaphor
B) Obedience in daily life
C) Experiences of everyday life
D) Competitiveness in life
Solution:
Solution: (c) The answer is implied in the second sentence of the passage.
