Identify which one of the following ideas does the author not want us to have.

  • A.We must be merciful towards people in misery.
  • B.We must have friendship for all.
  • C.We ought to be happy towards unhappy people.
  • D.We must be indifferent to the wicked.

Answer: C

The idea the author does not want is that we ought to be happy towards unhappy people (C).

The passage asks for gladness when people are happy and mercy towards those in misery. Being happy at the sight of unhappy people reverses this pairing and is not recommended anywhere.

The other three are in the text: "we must be merciful towards those that are in misery" (A), "we must have friendship for all" (B), and "to the wicked we must be indifferent" (D).
