According to the author, how is money absolutely necessary for life?

  • A.Money makes people rich and people can attain what they want.
  • B.Money can empower us to exhibit perfect love and fellowship for our near and dear ones.
  • C.Extreme poverty leads to stagnation of and impoverishment of the soul.
  • D.Real bliss lies in riches which the world regards as prosperity and felicity.

Answer: C

Money is absolutely necessary because extreme poverty leads to stagnation and impoverishment of the soul. The passage argues that even things of the spirit cannot be had without money, and that extreme poverty is as liable to lead to stagnation and impoverishment of the soul as excessive wealth.

The first option says money makes people rich, which is not an argument the author makes. The second claims money lets us show love and fellowship; the passage says love and fellowship come from being at peace with one's fellowmen, not from money. The fourth option states the worldly idea of real bliss that the passage sets aside. The stagnation of the soul is the answer.
