The correct answer is A. arbitration.
Breakdown of the Blank
The sentence defines pacifists as people who believe peace is essential and are looking for the "best solution for any kind of conflict."
- Arbitration means the use of an arbitrator to settle a dispute. An arbitrator is a neutral third party who listens to both sides of a conflict and makes a decision. This aligns with the pacifist belief that conflict should be resolved without fighting.
Let's look at why the other options are incorrect:
- B. rejuvenation: This means to restore to a younger, more vigorous state.
- C. patience: This is a quality, not a solution for conflict.
- D. empathy: This is a feeling, not a solution for conflict.
- E. submission: This means to yield to a superior force, which is the opposite of a peaceful resolution.
