COMPREHENSION PASSAGE
Read the passage and choose the right option:
Revenge is a kind of wild justice; which the more man's nature runs to, the more ought law to weed out. For as for the first wrong, it doth but offend the law; but the revenge of that wrong, putteth the law out of office. Certainly, in taking revenge, a man is but even with his enemy; but in passing it over, he is superior; for it is a prince's part to pardon. And Solomon, I am sure, saith, it is the glory of a man, to pass by an offence. That which is past is gone, and irrevocable; and wise men have enough to do, with things present and to come; therefore, they do but trifle with themselves, that labor in past matters. There is no man doth a wrong, for wrong's sake; but thereby to purchase himself profit, or pleasure, or honor, or the like. Therefore, why should I be angry with a man, for loving himself better than me? And if any man should do wrong, merely out of nature, why, yet it is but like the thorn or briar, which prick and scratch, because they can do no other. The most tolerable sort of revenge, is for those wrongs which there is no law to remedy; but then let a man take heed, the revenge be such as there is no law to punish; else a man's enemy is still beforehand, and it is two for one. Some, when they take revenge, are desirous, the party should know, whence it cometh. This is the more generous. For the delight seemeth to be, not so much in doing the hurt, as in making the party repent. But base and crafty cowards, are like the arrow that flieth in the dark. Cosmus, duke of Florence, had a desperate saying against perfidious or neglecting friends, as if those wrongs were unpardonable; You shall read (saith he) we are commanded to forgive our enemies; but you never read, that we are commanded to forgive our friends. But yet the spirit of Job was in a better tune: Shall we (saith he) take good at God's hands, and not be content to take evil also? And so, of friends in a proportion. This is certain, that a man that studieth revenge, keepeth his own wounds green, which otherwise would heal, and do well. Public revenges are for the most part fortunate; as that for the death of Caesar; for the death of Pertinax; for the death of Henry the Third of France; and many more. But in private revenges, it is not so. Nay rather, vindictive persons live the life of witches; who, as they are mischievous, so end they infortunate.
97. The author is of the opinion that personal wrongs must be:
A. avenged
B. forgiven
C. accepted
D. remembered
98. A person who does a wrong does it so out of
A. self-love
B. hate for others
C. ignorance
D. none of these
99. Why do some people want the “party” know about the revenge when it “cometh”?
A. to make them feel scared
B. to make them repent
C. to make it enjoyable
D. to make them alert
100. The author compares a cowardly revenge with:
A. arrows shot in dark
B. vindictive people
C. justice seekers
D. Caesar
