Read the passage given below and answer the following question.
Nazi ideology was synonymous with Hitler’s worldview. According to this there
was no equality between people, but only a racial hierarchy. In this view blond,
blue-eyed, Nordic German Aryans were at the top, while Jews were located at the
lowest rung. They came to be regarded as an anti-race, the arch-enemies of the
Aryans. All other coloured people were placed in between depending upon their
external features. Hitler’s racism borrowed from thinkers like Charles Darwin and
Herbert Spencer. Darwin was a natural scientist who tried to explain the creation
of plants and animals through the concept of evolution and natural selection.

Herbert Spencer later added the idea of survival of the fittest. According to this
idea, only those species survived on earth that could adapt themselves to changing
climatic conditions. We should bear in mind that Darwin never advocated human
intervention in what he thought was a purely natural process of selection.

However, his ideas were used by racist thinkers and politicians to justify imperial
rule over conquered peoples. The Nazi argument was simple: the strongest race
would survive and the weak ones would perish. The Aryan race was the finest. It
had to retain its purity, become stronger and dominate the world.
39.1 Which of the following race was considered to be superior according to Nazi
worldview?
A. Aryan
B. Jews
C. Both were equal
D. None of these

39.2 Who gave the theory of evolution and natural selection?
A. Herbert Spencer
B. Sir Isaac Newton
C. Robert Hook
D. Charles Darwin

39.3 According to Hitler who was the main enemy of the Aryans?
A. Gypsies
B. Poles
C. Jews
D. Russians

39.4 Charles Darwin was -
A. A musician
B. An author
C. A dramatist
D. A natural scientist

39.5 Herbert Spencer gave the idea of-
A. Evolution
B. Natural selection
C. Survival of the fittest
D. Theory of relativity
