4. 밑줄 친 this absurd human behavior가 다음 글에서 의미하는 바로 가장 적절한 것은? 

When it comes to human behavior, imitation is paramount. Little sister does as big sister, who does as Mom or Auntie does. Big boys imitate the even bigger boys who imitate the yet bigger boys. The psychologist Solomon Asch got very famous in the early 1960s for his conformity experiments in which he demonstrated how far most people would go to suppress their own opinion in a group whose members share a different view. When you’ve seen and heard eight people you respect express their opinion unanimously, all saying that the upper line on the display is longer than the lower, then it is very hard for most of us not to imitate them when asked for the ninth opinion. Most will imitate the majority even when our own eyes clearly tell us that the lower line is longer and that those in the majority are all blatantly wrong. Such imitation, of course, isn’t news. To express his dislike for it, Henrik Ibsen wrote in An Enemy of the People: “The majority never has right on its side.” He has been followed by a host of writers who have spilled a lot of angry ink over this absurd human behavior.
