Read the given passages and answer the question that follow:
Man is made up of multitudes of emotions that can be categorized into good or bad, but the lines that divide them are very thin. Anger is an easy and devastating emotion to incite and is one of the greatest sources of tension in our world–both inner and outer. It is often the result of feelings and sentiments being hurt, betrayals, or anything that goes against one’s principles or beliefs. Anger is infectious and can easily become a habit to fall into, triggered in certain situations by memories and experiences fueled by pride and often by the world we live in.
It is not hate, but anger that is the greatest evil in the world, because unresolved anger converts to hate, and thereon, the spiral of hurt and pain starts. When anger is built up inside of a person, it clouds one’s judgement. Just as one cannot see one’s reflection in boiling water, it is tricky to make good judgements and decisions. One often ends up committing heinous crimes or, say scathing things under the influence of anger. Judgement is kicked off-kilter and man is left to suffer the consequences of his anger. Anger can cause communities of people to rise in violence; it can vitiate relations between neighbours, families, and even spouses and siblings.
Walking away from a triggering situation can be one of the best ways to control the raging fire of anger. Walking away does not necessarily pertain to giving up or losing an argument. When a conversation gets too heated, one should take a break and gather scattered thoughts. But, just because you withhold your anger does not readily imply that it won’t manifest in some other form.
Managing anger involves learning to recognise, cope and express hurt or unsatisfied emotions in healthier and productive ways. While changes may not happen overnight, there is no harm in learning how to make changes now.
What should be done in order to control one’s anger?

AGet into fiery and heated debates or arguments.
BAlways be on the defensive and become effortlessly triggered.
CTake a step back and gather yourself.
DBe cynical about the people around you.


cynical meaning? i've searched everywhere it say's no such word exist's.

WHAT A SANDWICH!
Tanay was hungry. He called out to his mother, but she was not home. She had gone to the market to buy food for dinner. He opened the refrigerator. There must be apples in here to eat, he thought. But there were only oranges and bananas there.

He saw a loaf of bread. He took out two slices of bread and put them in the toaster. When the bread popped up, he put mustard and ketchup on one of the slices. On the other slice he put onions, tomatoes and lettuce. He liked carrots, but they didn’t look fresh. Then he sprinkled some salt and black pepper on the vegetables. Finally, he put the other slice on top and took the sandwich to his room. ‘What a sandwich!’ he thought, as he sat down to eat. He wanted to watch cartoons while eating the sandwich. But the remote control was nowhere to be found. He went to the living room to look for it. When he came back to his room, he saw that his sandwich had vanished!

“Where is my sandwich?” he thought. Soon his pet dog Boozo came running towards him. Tanay saw that the dog had something yellow all over his mouth. When he looked closely, he found that it was the mustard on his sandwich! Boozo had really liked the sandwich and finished it all.

What was Tanay looking for in the fridge?

ABananas
BOranges
CApples
DCarrots
