According to the passage, each(13 more words not shown)

Reading the passage

This is an EXCEPT question. Four choices should be supported; the remaining one is what we select. Keep the major distinction from the read-through in mind: lacking binding force did not mean having no effects.

Working the answers

  • A

    The end of the second paragraph explicitly includes a right to rest and leisure. That makes this supported, so it is not the exception.

  • B

    The Charter is dated 1945. The mandate to produce the UDHR came in 1946, with approval in 1948. The order matches B.

  • C

    The first sentence of the second paragraph assigns the mandate to the UN Commission on Human Rights. This is directly supported.

  • D
    Correct

    The author says the declaration led to legally binding human rights conventions. That is a practical consequence. The document's own nonbinding status does not erase the effects it had afterward.

  • E

    This restates the opening description of the UDHR as the first international treaty to expressly affirm universal respect for human rights. It is supported by the text we are being asked about.
