    (b) Listening involves complex affective, cognitive, and behavioral processes.
    (c) In despair, the dejected seek solace from someone, anyone — on the World Wide Web, on the street, just about anywhere — and end up pouring their heart out to total strangers.
    (d) When there is no one to talk to —rather, when there is no one who will listen to what you want to say — desperation sets in.
    (e) You lose hope and the will to live.
Answer & Explanation
Ans. b

Exp. Sentence (b) is not a part of the coherent paragraph as sentences forming the coherent paragraph (DEAC) is about causes and consequences of desperation while sentence (b) is about the process of listening. Hence option (b) is the correct choice.

 

  1. (a) Love, affection, honesty, integrity and truth, for instance, are values that are as important to life as breathing or eating.
    (b) They generate negativity and manifest in the form of lying, cheating or causing other harm.
    (c) The three fundamental gunas —satvik, rajasik and tamasik —which characterise the nature of the human being, very often in a combo, are further subdivided into many basic qualities commonly known as human values.
    (d) Though these values are positive, in the course of practice and because they emanate from a mind that is susceptible to negative thoughts, they get corrupted.
    (e) Good intent and good deed contribute to good karma and future happiness, while bad intent and bad deed contribute to bad karma and future suffering.
Answer & Explanation
Ans. e

Exp.  Sentences CADB form a coherent paragraph talking about fundamental gunas that comprises of basic qualities called as positive human values (Love, affection, honesty, integrity and truth) which gets contaminated to negative thoughts and thus results to lying, cheating or causing harm to others. Sentence (e) which talks about theory of Karma which fails to connect with the other sentences of the paragraph. Hence option (e) is the correct choice.

 

  1. (a) The Buddhist scriptures, written in Pali, have a word ‘Martyar’.
    (b) Martyrdom is not limited to the ambit of a country or the limits of a local ideology.
    (c) Unfortunately, the jingoistic nationalistic wave of the last two centuries and limited collective vision, restricted the otherwise boundless canvas of the term martyr.
    (d) It means, whose life is dedicated to knowing the Truth and its essence.
    (e) This sixth-century Pali word still has the same meaning: one who defies death for the Truth.
Answer & Explanation
Ans. b

Exp. The sentences (ADEC) forming coherent paragraph is about understanding the term ‘martyr’ as written in Pali in Buddhist scriptures. Sentence (b) which is about ‘Martydom’, fails to link with the other options. Hence option (b) is the correct choice.

    (e) When you beg for happiness, you position happiness in the future.
Answer & Explanation
Ans. d

Exp. We can infer after going through the sentences that sentences BEAC form a coherent paragraph discussing about living in present and not begging for happiness. Sentence (d) does not fit with any other sentence as it is about learning from a problem, which is unrelated to the other sentences. Hence option (d) is the correct choice.

 

  1. (a) With compassion, the ego relaxes and we can effortlessly become aware of the indwelling soul.
    (b) Ego discovers its identity, in this case, with the Infinite Spirit.
    (c) Expanding sympathy helps the ego to be aware of its subtle identity with other people and with the universe.
    (d) Next, our understanding is limited by the way we use reason to process that information.

(e) One’s own happiness, in consequence, expands exponentially.

Answer & Explanation
Ans. d
Exp. Sentences CEAB are interrelated to each other and hence form a coherent paragraph which revolves around the theme of discovering the identity of Ego through compassion and sympathy towards others. Sentence (d) that talks about individual’s understanding to process the information fails to get linked with other sentences of the paragraph. Hence option (d) is the correct choice.
