Read the passage given below and then answer the questions given below the passage. Some words may be highlighted for your attention. Read carefully.
The meeting consisted a plural group of people and they all looked at each other with questioning eyes. The news of their former employee, Arista, being taken under severe psychiatric care and losing her life while undergoing treatment shook them all. It went unsaid of the importance of paying more attention to self-care and mental health as their questioning eyes soon transformed to teary for some and intense shock for others. The group of people who would often be caught pulling each other’s leg, bantering over silly arguments, making hilarious impression, were all quiet this evening. As the screen went ahead with a slide show of reminiscing pictures of a face they were all too familiar with, the sun outside was setting. Today, no one made a whining complaint of wanting to leave early, in fact no one even glanced at their watches to check the time. It might be true after all, that a sense of collective guilt and sadness can bring together people the same way a happy occasion and free services does.
What does the phrase “collective guilt” imply from the given passage? 1). Collectively making sad contributions 2). Being equally sad on unrelated matters 3). Being sad over one thing through almost similar viewpoints 4). Having a collective sense of understanding a sad situation
The answer is option 3 as collective guilt is experienced when a group comes together on a sad occuring to review it almost in the same manner. The other options seem to have differing meaning and does not imply collectivity as a vital factor, hence are not the answers.
