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.


The highbrows reverse the numerical arguments and imply that, because they are so few, they must therefore be right but where they chiefly offend is in their excessive self-congratulation and contempt for others. In the past, the highbrows were alone in expressing a feeling of superiority; the lowbrows humbly accepted the position assigned to them. Recently, however, there has been a change, and the lowbrows now adopt towards the highbrows the same attitude as the highbrows adopted towards them.

Options:
A) have no regard for the majority

have regard for the minority
