Question

Read the following passage and answer the following questions given below:
A sanctuary may be defined as a place where Man is passive and the rest of Nature
active. Till quite recently Nature had her own sanctuaries, where man either did not go at
all or only as a tool-using animal in comparatively small numbers. But now, in this
machinery age, there is no place left where man cannot go with overwhelming forces at
his command. He can strangle to death all the nobler wild life in the world to-day To-
morrow he certainly will have done so, unless he exercises due foresight and self-control
in the mean time.
There is not the slightest doubt that birds and mammals are now being killed off much
faster than they can breed. And it is always the largest and noblest forms of life that
suffer most. The whales and elephants, lions and eagles, go. The rats and flies, and all
mean parasites, remain. This is inevitable in certain cases. But it is wanton killing of that
I am speaking of to-night. Civilized man begins by destroying the very forms of wild life
he learns to appreciate most when
he becomes still more civilized. The obvious remedy is to begin conservation at an earlier
stage, when it is easier and better in every way, by enforcing laws for close seasons,
game preserves, the selective protection of certain species, and sanctuaries
I have just defined a sanctuary as a place where man is passive and the rest of Nature
active. But this general definition is too absolute for any special case. The mere fact that
man has to protect a sanctuary does away with his purely passive attitude. Then, he can
be beneficially active by destroying pests and parasites, like bot-flies or mosquitoes, and
by finding antidotes for diseases like the epidemic which periodically kills off the rabbits
and thus starves many of the carnivore to death. But, except in cases where experiment
has proved his intervention to be beneficial, the less he upsets the balance of Nature the
better, even when he tries to be an earthly Providence.
Q.1.1. The author implies that his first definition of a sanctuary is
A. Totally wrong
B. Somewhat idealistic Cunhelpful
D. indefensible E. immutable​

Answer 1

The author says in sentence two that his previous definition was too absolute. Yet he admits that the less man upsets the balance of Nature the better.

Answer 2

Law is a system of rules created and enforced through social or governmental institutions to regulate behavior, with its precise definition a matter of longstanding debate. It has been variously described as a science and the art of justice.
