Question : 107 of 120

Marks: +1, -0

Directions: 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.
