Correct answer: D. To turn to children in humility to learn wisdom
Explanation
God's will, for the author, is that adults learn humbly from children.
Note: Passage II is a short prose piece on learning from children, attributed to Gandhi, and summarised here. Children are not born naughty; with good parents they follow truth and love. Even the wisest adults can learn much from children if they approach them humbly, and the author believes this is God's will. Real peace, 'a real war against war', must begin with children: if they grow up in their natural innocence, no resolutions will be needed and the world will fill with peace and love.
