Question

Why does the author use the statement “circus animals chasing our respective tails"?

Options:

A . The author wants to emphasise that this is a problem played out consistently in the domain of pleasure.

B . The author wants to emphasise that we are facing a problem with a circular claim on the meaning of meaning.

C . The author wants to emphasise that this is a problem played out at least in the domain of affective responsiveness.

D . Both (a) and (c) together

Answer: Option B
:
B

Option (b)

Please look at these lines in the first paragraph “we end in circular claims about the meaning of meaning. We are not quite circus animals chasing our respective tails". This clearly gives the answer to the question. All the other three options are junk answers.
