DIRECTIONS: Read the following passage carefully and complete the following sentences.
When we are suddenly confronted with any terrible danger, the change of nature we undergo is equally great. In some cases fear paralyses us. Like animals we stand still, powerless to move a step in fright or to lift a hand in defence of our lives, and sometimes we are seized with panic, and again, act more like the inferior animals than rational beings. On the other hand, frequently in cases of sudden extreme peril, which cannot be escaped by flight, and must be instantly faced, even the most timid men at once as if by miracle, become possessed of the necessary courage, sharp quick apprehension, and swift decision. This is a miracle very common in nature. Man and the inferior animals alike, when confronted with almost certain death ‘gather resolution from despair’ but there can really be no trace of so debilitating a feeling in the person fighting, or prepared to fight for dear life. At such time the mind is clearer than it has ever been; the nerves are steel, there is nothing felt but a wonderful strength and daring. Looking back at certain perilous moments in my own life, I remember them with a kind of joy, not that there was any joyful excitement then; but because they brought me a new experience a new nature, as it were and lifted me for a time above himself.
26) What is the meaning of the word ‘peril’?
A) Safety
B) Danger
C) Condition
D) Circumstances
27) What would be the synonym of the word ‘fright’?
A) Calmness
B) Terror
C) Composure
D) Abscond
28) What is does the author wish to convey by the expression ‘‘gather resolution from despair’?
A) Starts yelling out of panic.
B) Become extremely frightened and start trembling.
C) Become bold in an extremely fearful or life threatening condition.
D) None of the above.
29) What is the similarity between animals and human beings?
A) In case of sudden fear both are unable to respond or react.
B) Both fight fearlessly with any kind of danger and enemy.
C) Both run away when confronted with sudden danger.
D) None of the above.
30) Which word in the passage means ‘a very lucky event that is surprising and unexpected’?
A) Apprehension
B) Confronted
C) Miracle
D) Timid
