Question

The author does not like to go to watch

• A. television
• B. theatre
• C. cinema
• D. rallies

Hint:

In literature-based questions, always connect the characters' feelings and actions to their personality traits as described in the text. Here, "slow thinker" is the key to understanding the author's dislike for cinema.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Step 1: Identify the author and the text. The question refers to the author from the prose piece "The Pace for Living" by R.C. Hutchinson.
Step 2: Recall the author's characteristics. The author describes himself as a "slow thinker."
Step 3: Connect the characteristic to the options. The author finds the rapid scene changes and quick action in a cinema overwhelming for his slow way of thinking. He mentions that in a film, his mind gets into a "hopeless fog" because the scenes move too fast for him to keep up, unlike in a theatre where the action is more measured. Therefore, he does not like to go to the cinema.
