Friendship was indeed a value for the villagers, more for men than for women. Two good friends were said to be 'like brothers' (literally, like elder brother-younger brother, annatammandirahage). I heard this expression several times and I could not help recalling the statement of an elderly English colleague who had told me that he and his brother were very close and had written to each other every week. He had added, We are very good friends. That is friends, connoted intimacy in England while in Rampura (as in rural India everywhere), brotherhood conveyed intimacy'.

Which of the following best summarises the conclusion of the argument of this paragraph?

Babita: It is in the interest of Internet websites, newspapers and magazines to get me the best price for my property because they are a relatively new medium wanting to establish themselves.

‘In 399 BC, a jury in Athens condemned Socrates to death for impiety and corrupting the morals of the youth. Socrates’ friends offered to help him escape, but Socrates refused.
