Directions: Read the following information carefully and answer the given questions.

There are two main approaches to the understanding of the new ethnic phenomenon. The premordialist approach to ethnicity and ethnic identities considers common descent activated more easily than rational principles and organization founded upon them. The other approach is variously known as situational, subjectivist, or instrumental. Its main emphasis is on group members' perceptions of being different from others and on the implications of this for that group's present status or predicament and for its prospects for the future. These contending approaches are an aid to an explication of issues and to the undertaking of contemporary reality but they do not offer any final answers. They are often no more than exercises in the reconstruction of the past; the definition and redefinition of the situations to explain the present and stratagems and strategies for achieving the desired future. Ethnicity transcends the known boundaries of the state, religion, sect, and class. It seeks to fragment established nationalities and communities and create a new one using ethnic indicators. It involves symbols -old as well as newly created- and their manipulation by competing elites. The symbolic and cultural aspects of ethnicity are important in themselves; and they often get politicized because, in the final analysis, most ethnic conflicts are demands for a larger share of economic resources and products, and for a greater part in decision-making processes. Given identities can be questioned by individuals and groups, and their actions can result in the formation of new identities and symbol systems associated with the articulation of new interests. Ethnicity may thus lead to the redefinition of social and cultural boundaries. Ethnic aspirations and urges have a quicksilver quality, they need to be consistent and firm. This is explained by the quality of leadership of several ethnic movements. A section of the established elite may be behind them, but the elite can be pushed aside and the leadership taken over by arms wielding elements of diverse origins.

  1. ((a))

एक गद्यांश दिया गया है। गद्यांश के आधार पर पाँच प्रश्न दिए गए हैं। गद्यांश को ध्यानपूर्वक पढ़ें तथा प्रत्येक प्रश्न में चार विकल्पों में से सही विकल्प चुने।

रात्रि के अंधकार को चीरकर सूर्य पूर्व दिशा से उदय होकर चारों ओर प्रकाश फैला देता है। सूर्य की किरणें वृक्षों की हरियाली को ताजगी प्रदान करती हैं। पुष्पों को खिलाकर चारों ओर सुगंध फैला देती है। अंधकार में डूबे नीले आकाश को रंगों से भर देती है। सूर्य जब पूर्व दिशा में क्षितिज से ऊपर उठता है तो लगता है लाल रंग की बड़ी सी गेंद आकाश में उठती चली आ रही है। सारा आकाश लाल, पीले, सफ़ेद रंग से नहा जाता है। नीले आकाश पर रंगों की बौछार-सी हो जाती है। सारी प्रकृति नए रूप में सज जाती है। पक्षी चहचहाने लगते हैं। तितलियां पुष्पों पर मंडराने लगती हैं | भौंरों की गूंज से उपवन संगीतमय हो जाते हैं। सभी अपने-अपने कार्य में निमग्न हो जाते हैं। रात्रि लोरियों से सबको मीठी नींद में सुला देती है। सूर्य उदय होकर सब को उनके कर्तव्यों का बोध कराता है। प्रातः कालीन दृश्य आलौकिक लगता है। सूर्य का कोमल शांत रूप हृदयों में नई ऊर्जा जागृत कर देता है।
