Q.3494·Miscellaneous·2022·Easy

In this section each item consists of six sentences of a passage. The first and sixth sentences are given as S1 and S6. The middle four sentences in each have been jumbled up and labelled as P, Q, R and S. You are required to find the proper sequence of the four sentences and mark your response accordingly on the Answer Sheet. S1: Historians have often explained religious and social reform in India in the nineteenth century as a result of the Western impact upon the minds of men. P: With that purpose, we seek to analyze the thoughts and activities of individuals who were both religious reformers and vernacular publicists. Q: The equation of westernization and modernization has given way to a search for the indigenous sources of social changes. R: Recognizing the modernity of tradition is one thing however, whereas understanding the intellectual processes that produced indigenously generated change is another. S: Others have recognized that this was entirely too simple an explanation for the intellectual and social changes that took place in India and other places that fell under the foreign colonial rule. S6: Each of these vernacular-using reformers derived his arguments from within his own tradition.

Q.3495·Miscellaneous·2022·Easy

In this section each item consists of six sentences of a passage. The first and sixth sentences are given as S1 and S6. The middle four sentences in each have been jumbled up and labelled as P, Q, R and S. You are required to find the proper sequence of the four sentences and mark your response accordingly on the Answer Sheet. S1: A corpus is an abundant source of samples of English usage. P: If this is to be of the meaning that has been previously explained, they cannot just be picked out of the corpus at random. Q: If they are to function as examples, however, then we need to ask just what it is they are intended to be examples of. R: Samples of the language, isolated from their natural context of use, will not normally exemplify word meanings, but will simply show one instance of the word’s actual occurrence. S: This is because the context will usually make it unnecessary to spell the meaning out. S6: It is not only the previously explained meaning of the word that we might want a sample to exemplify, however, but also its collocational tendencies.
