The once widely

by akhpad » Mon Jul 05, 2010 10:15 am
The once widely held perception of intellectuals as the clarifiers of fundamental moral issues is no longer valid today. Intellectuals no longer act as advocates for oppressed groups. Instead of applying their insights and analyses to the problems of these groups, they leave the debate to the politicians.

The logical structure of the passage depends upon closely linking the clarification of fundamental moral issues with

A. intellectualism
B. advocacy on behalf of oppressed groups
C. insight and analysis
D. debate on contemporary practical issues
E. the role of politicians

OA: B

Is it a GMAT problem?
