Which of the following is NOT suggested in the passage? [br]
No Englishman believes in working from book learning. He suspects all theories, philosophic or other. He suspects everything new, and dislikes it, unless he can be compelled by the force of circumstances to see that this new thing has advantages over the old. Race-experience is what he invariably depends upon, whenever he can, whether in India, in Egypt, or in Australia. His statesmen do not consult historical precedents in order to decide what to do: they first learn the facts as they are; then they depend on their own common sense, not at all upon their university learning or upon philosophical theories. And in the case of the English nation, it must be acknowledged that this instinctive method has been eminently successful
The judgment of the Englishman by all other European peoples is that he is the most suspicious, the most re- served, the most unreceptive, the most unfriendly, the coldest-hearted, and the most domineering of all western peoples. Ask a Frenchman, an Italian, A German, a Spaniard, even an American, what he thinks about English- men; and every one of them will tell you the very same thing, But you would find upon the other hand that nearly all nations would speak highly of certain other English qualifies…energy, courage, honor, justice. They would say that although no man is so difficult to make friends with, the friendship of an Englishman once gained is stronger and more true than any other,
