Question

Read the following passage and choose the correct option for the given question
Those of us who already possess knives and use them as a matter of course at our meals can
hardly understand the longing of an infant to be given the freedom of so perilous an instrument.
Man has been defined as a tool-using animal and there is no another tool that, appeals to the
imagination so strongly as a knife. It is through long months and years a forbidden thing and all
the more fascinating on that count. There is no glory in using a spoon. There is no honour in
holding a fork in the right hand and in taking up on it little squares of meat that have been cut with
a knife by some more privileged hand.
