The stranger is by nature no "owner of soil" -- soil not only in the physical, but also in the figurative sense of a life-substance, which is fixed, if not in a point in space, at least in an ideal point of the social environment. Although in more intimate relations, he may develop all kinds of charm and significance, as long as he is considered a stranger in the eyes of the other, he is not an "owner of soil." Restriction to intermediary trade, and often (as though sublimated from it) to pure finance, gives him the specific character of mobility. If mobility takes place within a closed group, it embodies that synthesis of nearness and distance which constitutes the formal position of the stranger. For, the fundamentally mobile person comes in contact, at one time or another, with every individual, but is not organically connected, through established ties of kinship, locality, and occupation, with any single one.

What assumptions can be made about the stranger from the passage above?

Your answerChoose one option.

The stranger can become an owner of soil through developing all kinds of charm in more intimate relations.

The stranger cannot become an owner of soil either in the physical or psychological sense.

The stranger can become an owner of soil through establishing ties of kinship and so on.

The stranger might become an owner of soil in the physical sense but not in the psychological

Consumed multitudes are jostling and shoving inside me

and guided only by the memory of a large white bedsheet with a rough circular hole some seven inches in diameter cut into the center,

clenching at the dream of that hole, mutilated square of linen, which is my talisman, my open-sesame,

I must commence the business of remaking my life from the point at which it really began,

some thirty-two years before anything as obvious, as present, as my clock-ridden, crime-stained birth.

“I told you the truth,” I say yet again, “Memory’s truth, because memory has its own special kind. It selects, eliminates, alters, exaggerates, minimizes, glorifies, and vilifies also; but in the end it creates its own reality, its heterogeneous but usually coherent versions of events; and no sane human being ever trusts someone else’s version more than his own.”

What are the different ways in which ‘truth’ can be understood from the passage?

Your answerSelect all correct options. You can choose more than one.

Truth is what can be verified by hard empirical evidence.

Truth is based on what can be perceived by the senses.

Truth is the product of memory that is fallible, selective and slanted.

Truth is contingent on the observer and can only be partial.
