"The mice which helplessly find themselves between the cat's teeth acquire no merit from their enforced sacrifice." What can be inferred from this statement ?
Answer: B
The inference is that weak people deserve no praise for not fighting back.
Gandhi uses the image to say that mice caught 'helplessly' between a cat's teeth gain no merit from a sacrifice that is 'enforced'. The point is that merit needs choice and strength: someone who cannot resist is not being virtuous by submitting. He ties it to his argument that India must first learn to live and save itself.
The other options do not follow. Nothing calls brave men cowards, the sentence is a figure of speech and not a statement about a small animal being eaten, and nothing in it concerns India dominating Europe.
