In our time, political speech and writing are largely the defense of the indefensible. Things like the continuance of British ru

le in India, the Russian purges and deportations, the dropping of the atom bombs on Japan, can indeed be defended, but only by arguments which are too brutal for most people to face, and which do not square with the professed aims of political parties. Thus political language has to consist largely of euphemism, question-begging and sheer cloudy vagueness. . . . Such phraseology is needed if one wants to name things without calling up mental pictures of them. Consider for instance some comfortable English professor defending Russian totalitarianism. He cannot say outright, "I believe in killing off your opponents when you can get good results by doing so.” Probably, therefore, he will say something like this:
While freely conceding that the Soviet regime exhibits certain features which the humanitarian may be inclined to deplore, we must, I think, agree that a certain curtailment of the right to political opposition is an unavoidable concomitant of transitional periods, and that the rigors which the Russian people have been called upon to undergo have been amply justified in the sphere of concrete achievement.

Which statement correctly identifies the way evidence is used to support the underlined claim?

A-Orwell lists statistics to support the underlined claim.
B-Orwell quotes an article with examples of cloudy language.
C-Orwell provides a hypothetical situation with someone using unclear language.
D-Orwell lists facts to prove that most newspapers use puzzling language.

<span>In today's world political speech has indeed become very vague. Every political party has their own agenda which they try to achieve by utilizing every incidents that affect the people, It is because of this hidden agenda the parties can not speak clearly and strongly on any particular subject. Even for a terrorist attack on innocent people their might be 2 opinions in a political setup which is never acceptable.</span>
