Question

Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow them.

It is rather the self-importance of man that he thinks he on this world. Theories have developed since the very beginning of cultural and religious development on these lines. There is an Adam and Eve. There is an Adam and Hava. There is a Manu having brought life on this planet after Pralaya. All religious preceptors have preached that the word is meant for man. They talk of communion between man and God. But science has exploded such myths. It was not really so that man owned the word in the beginning. Man developed physically to the form as we find him now, over a period of time, at a very late stage. The planet started with micro life. There is a period of millions of years even between the existence of the micro life and the huge dinosaur who owned the world and ruled over it. But nature has been the rather cruel to this animal world for whom, actually, everything in the world was meant. Nature bestowed man with a developed brain that it did not develop in any other creature. This partiality of nature made him Homo Sapien. It is only man who can think and plan about his existence and welfare, polluting in the process, the land, the space and the seas that nature had made for all. His own creation may one day go against him. But now he owns the world and it is the master of all that he surveys. He feels that all creatures on the earth and even beyond the earth are meant for him.
