Dear Friend, your letter gently but unmistakably intimates that I am a slacker, a slacker in peace as well as in war: that when the World War was raging bitterly I dawdled my time with subjects like symbolic logic, and that now when the issues of reconstructing a bleeding world demand the efforts of all who care for the future of the human race, I am shirking my responsibility and wasting my time with Plato and Cicero. Your sweetly veiled charge is true, but I do not feel ashamed of it. On the contrary, when I look upon my professional colleagues who enlisted their philosophies in the war, who added their shrill voices to the roar of the cannons and their little drops of venom to the torrents of national hatreds, I feel that it is they who should write apologies for their course. For philosophers, I take it, are ordained as priests to keep alive the sacred fires on the altar of impartial truth, and I have but faithfully endeavored to keep my oath of office as well as the circumstances would permit. It is doubtless the height of the unheroic to worship truth in the bombproof shelter of harmless mathematics when men are giving their lives for democracy and for public order which is the basis of civilization. But it would be sad if all the priests deserted their altars and became soldiers, if the Sermon on the Mount were utterly erased to give place to manuals of bayonet practice or instructions on the use of poison gas. What avails it to beat the enemy if the sacred fires which we are sworn to defend meanwhile languish and die for want of attendance?

[1]	Which of the following is the MOST APPROPRIATE title for the passage? (A) Philosophy in wartime: An Apologia (B) Philosophy versus War (C) In defence of Philosophy (D) Philosophy’s quarrels with War

[2]	According to the passage, a philosopher should (A) always shun action and privilege speculation (B) at all times promote the disinterested inquiry of his discourse (C) stay away from ideologues (D) support anti-war activism

[3]	Which of the following statements CANNOT he directly inferred from the passage? (A) The writer has disagreements with his professional colleagues (B) The writer is aware of the sacrifices made in a war (C) The writer considers philosophy a sacred calling (D) The writer is a pacifist
