{'pressure groups': [1, 0, 0, 0], 'pressure group': [1, 0, 0, 2], 'interests': [1, 1, 2, 4], 'government': [5, 0, 0, 1], 'group': [0, 1, 0, 0], 'policies': [1, 1, 1, 7]}

The correct answer is option 1: Pressure Groups aim at capturing government. This statement is not true because pressure groups do not aim to capture the government. Pressure groups are organizations formed by individuals who share common interests and goals. Their main objective is to influence and shape government policies in order to promote their interests. They do this by engaging in various activities such as lobbying, demonstrations, public campaigns, and legal challenges. Pressure groups articulate the interests of their members and try to influence public opinion and decision-making processes. They seek to have a say in policy formulation and implementation rather than seeking to directly control or capture the government. Therefore, option 1 is not true about pressure groups.
