PASSAGE-1Probably there was more unity and harmony

in the human personality in the old days, thoughthis was at a lower level, than today except forcertain individuals who were obviously of a veryhigh type. During this long age of transition,through which humanity has been passing wehave managed to break up that unity, but have

not so far succeeded in finding another. We clingstill to the ways of dogmatic religion, adhere tooutworn practices and beliefs, and yet talk andpresume to live in terms of the scientific method.Perhaps science has been too narrow in itsapproach to life and has ignored many vitalaspects of it, and hence it could not provide asuitable basis for a new unity and harmony.Perhaps it is gradually broadening this basis nowand we shall achieve a new harmony for thehuman personality on a much higher level thanthe previous one. But the problem is a moredifficult and complex one now. It was perhapseasier to develop some kind of a harmoniouspersonality in the restricted spheres of ancientand medieval times. In that little world of townand village, with fixed concepts of socialorganisation and behaviour, the individual andgroup lived their self-contained lives, protected,as a rule, from outer storms.96. The modern man has not achieved a proper

inner stability because(A) he is still in a state of bewilderment(B) he is dogmatic in his outlook(C) he refuses to adopt a scientific outlook(D) he cannot give up his superstitions

97. According to the author, human personalityin the past was—(A) seriously limited(B) fully developed(C) well-integrated(D) well-rounded but flawed in part

98. On the whole, the author’s attitude to thefuture may be summed up as one of—(A) scientific scepticism(B) stoic resignation(C) cautious optimist(D) naive enthusiasm

99. According to the author, science is now—(A) broadening our horizons(B) shedding its old methods in dealing

with life(C) opening up new v istas in human

personality(D) holding out a bright future for man

100. According to the author old societiesprovided men—(A) a limited world-view(B) a well-developed community sense(C) restricted opportunities(D) sound religious convictions
