Q:

Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer to each question out of the four alternatives.

Everyone expected Mary Zophres to win for her retro-revival Technicolor clothes in La La Land — the eventual winner, Colleen Atwood for Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, seemed surprised too. But as other awards began to slip away from the well-reviewed musical, a theme could be teased out. What is Fantastic Beasts if not a plea for equal treatment of people, magical or otherwise? Then, Arrival, a film about the inherent benignity of aliens (read immigrants) won for Best Sound Editing. Hacksaw Ridge, which is, in a way, an anti-guns movie, won in two categories. Fences, about an African-American father who fears racial discrimination, took home the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress. Earlier, Moonlight, featuring two minority communities (black and gay), won for Best Supporting Actor. This turned out to be one of those years the Oscar voter was underestimated. As a majority of voters are actors, there was the tendency to think they'd reward La La Land, a celebration of creation: the heroine wants to make movies, the hero wants to make jazz. It looked like the year of The Artist all over again.

Why was it assumed that La La Land would win a lot of awards?

A) Because the movie celebrates creation	B) Because majority of voters are actors
C) Because it is a movie about making movies and jazz	D) Because it is a retro-revival Technicolor movie

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Because majority of voters are actors

Q:

Which one of the following statements is not correct?

A) Al-Biruni identifies the Sufidoctrine of divine love as selfannihilation with parallel passages from Bhagavad Gita.	B) According to Al-Biruni, Sufitheories of Soul were similar to those in Patanjali’s Yoga Sutra.
C) The Hatha Yogic treatise Amrita Kunda had lasting impact on Sufism.	D) Hujwiri’s conversation with the Yogis shows that he was impressed with their theory of the division of the human body.

Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Hujwiri’s conversation with the Yogis shows that he was impressed with their theory of the division of the human body.

Explanation:

According to al-Biruni, the sufi theories of the soul were similar to those in Patanjali’s Yoga Sutra. Like the Yoga Sutra, sufi works also stated that ‘the bodies are the snares of the souls for the purpose of acquiring recompense’. Al-Biruni also identifies the sufi doctrine of divine love as self-annihilation with parallel passages from the Bhagavad Gita. There was also much exchange of ideas between the Sufis and Indian yogis. In fact the hatha-yoga treatise Amrita Kunda was translated into Arabic and Persian, So C is right.

Hujwiri was known as Datta Ganj Baksh. Hujwiri comments that before he settled in Lahore some sufis believed in theories that he calls brahmanical. According to Hujwiri they wrongly believed that ‘annihilation (fand’) signifies loss of essence and destruction of the personality, and that subsistence (baqa) indicates the subsistence of God in man.
