The distinction conferred by wealth

  • A.was unfair to the poor
  • B.was unlikely to spread throughout the world
  • C.was very great when there were many rich people
  • D.was very great when there were few rich people

Answer: D

Correct answer: was very great when there were few rich people

The passage says that in a world where nearly everyone was poor the distinction was very great, and calls it the natural consequence of rarity. The closing sentence completes the argument in reverse: as the rich have become more numerous they have become a debased currency.
