In a free country, the man who reaches the position of leader is usually one of outstanding, character and ability. Moreover, it is usually possible to foresee that he will reach such a position, since early in life one can see his qualities of character. But this is not always true in the case of a dictator; often he reaches his position of power through chance, very often through the unhappy state of his country.

The passage seems to suggest that 

(a) a leader foresees his future position 

(b) a leader is chosen only by a free country 

(c) a leader must see that his country is free from despair 

(d) despair in a country sometimes leads to dictatorship

  1. Correct option (d) despair in a country sometimes leads to dictatorship

    Explanation:

    Options (a), (b) and (c) cannot be deduced from the passage.Moreover,the defintive words like “only”,“must” etc. force a rethink over these options.

    According to the passage,only option (d) seems correct, also seen from the lines “…very often through the unhappy state of his country”.
