ENGLISH LANGUAGE

71. (4); It is given in the fifth paragraph that ‘’ ……The
western concept of secularism is significantly
different, being antagonistic to religions…..’’ from
this we may infer that the concept of western
secularism is ‘antagonistic’ to religion. Hence, (1) is
correct. In the same paragraph it is mentioned that
‘’…… It springs from a negative attitude to religions
and is motivated by a concern for justice….’’ Hence,
we can conclude that (B) is also true. Option (C)
cannot be inferred from the given passage. Hence
(4), is the correct option.
72. (4); In context of S. Radhakrishnan, It is given in the
fourth paragraph that ‘’ When India is said to be a
secular state, it does not mean that we reject the
reality of an unseen spirit or the relevance of
religion to life or that we exalt irreligion.’’ from this
we can conclude that (1) and (2) is correct. Hence,
(4) is the correct option.
73. (2); It is given in the first paragraph the “..The Rig
Veda proclaims that diverse ways of worship reach
the same destination…’’ Hence, we can conclude
that (A) is not correct. From the same statement we
can also conclude that (B) is true. Although, (C) is
also given in the same paragraph, but, it is not the
culmination of worship according to the Rig Veda.
Hence, (2) is the correct option.
74. (5); It is given in the second last paragraph of the
given passage that “Religion is just the outer
www.bankersadda.com | www.sscadda.com | www.careerpower.in | www.careeradda.co.in
garment of spirituality. It (Religion) has to end in
spirituality.’’. From this we can conclude that (1)
and (2) are correct. In the same paragraph, it is also
given that ‘’ ….discipline of religion should give us
divine realisation of the oneness of the spirit…..’’
Hence (3) is also true. Similarly, it is also given that
“Atmanam viddhi’ or ‘Know Thyself’ was the motto
adopted by this country.’’ hence, (4) is also true.
Hence, (5) is the correct option.
75. (2); It is mentioned in the fourth paragraph of the
passage that ‘’ Down the ages India has developed a
rich tradition of secularism based on mutual respect
and assimilation’’. After which the author
introduces the fact of India’s adoption of a secular
Constitution. No other option has been given in this
context, hence, we can conclude that (2) is the most
appropriate option.
76. (3); In the fifth paragraph of the passage, it is given
that ‘ …in India, secularism implies a profound
respect for all religions and an inclusive and
impartial attitude to non-believers as well……’’.
Hence we can conclude that (A), (B) and (C) are
true. Hence, (3) is the correct option.
77. (1); Expediency means ‘convenience’. Hence,
‘desirability’ is the word which is most similar in
meaning to it.
78. (2); Assimilation means ‘The process by which a
person or persons acquire the social and
Page 3
 psychological characteristics of a group’. Hence,
‘adoption’ is the word which is most similar in
meaning to it.
79. (5); Diverse means ‘showing a great deal of
variety’. Hence, ‘unified’ is the word which is most
opposite in meaning to it.
80. (3); Shrouded means cover or envelop so as to
conceal from view. So, ‘apparent’ is the word which
is most opposite in meaning to it.
81. (3); Replace ‘increasing’ with ‘increasingly’
82. (1); Add ‘a’ before ‘new’
83. (3); Replace ‘deserves’ with ‘deserved’
84. (3); Replace ‘which’ with ‘who’
85. (1); Replace ‘create’ with ‘creating’
86. (2); Replace ‘on Mumbai recently’ with ‘in Mumbai
recently’
87. (3); Replace ‘are highly uneven’ with ‘is highly
uneven’
88. (2); Replace ‘are been infected’ with ‘are being
infected’
89. (5); No correction required.
90. (3); Replace ‘likely to’ with ‘likely to be’
For question (91-95); The correct sequence to
form meaningful paragraph is CADFBHGE.
