WRONG CHOICE ANSWERS
Historian: The spread of literacy informs more people of injustices and, in the right
circumstances, leads to increased capacity to distinguish true reformers from mere
opportunists. However, widespread literacy invariably emerges before any comprehensive
system of general education;thus, in the interim, the populace is vulnerable to clever
demagogues calling for change. Consequently, some relatively benign regimes may ironically be
toppled by their own "enlightened" move to increase literacy.
Which one of the following is an assumption on which the historian's argument depends?
A. A demagogue can never enlist the public support necessary to topple an existing regime
unless a comprehensive system of general education is in place.
B. Without literacy there can be no general awareness of the injustice in a society.
C. Any comprehensive system of general education will tend to preserve the authority of benign
regimes.
D. A lack of general education affects the ability to differentiate between legitimate and
illegitimate calls for reform.
E. Any benign regime that fails to provide comprehensive general education wil be toppled by a
clever demagogue.
D. A lack of general education affects the ability to differentiate between legitimate and
illegitimate calls for reform.
