<u>Answer:</u>

The central idea of Sarojini Naidu’s poem "The Pardah Nashin" revolves around the practice of<em> locking women away behind walls, screens or curtains which robs them of their dignity. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

The poetess belonged to a culture where women and men were treated differently. With the excuse of protecting women from being coveted, they have been robbed off their freedom and kept behind walls or screens or more precisely “the pardah.” This way of "protecting" has adverse effects and the ones involved are the victims unwillingly. Sarojini Naidu says through her poem that a pardah may hide a woman’s face and youth from the eyes of others but it’s unable to shield a woman's eyes from tears and to protect their feelings. It doesn’t consider her wishes but only limits their lives, abilities and happiness at large.

Answer: B. Locking women away behind walls, screens, or curtains robs them of their dignity.

Explanation:

The author of this poem, Sarojini Naidu (1879 - 1946), came from a culture where women were to receive a different treatment from men. Women's freedom was taken away with the excuse of protecting them from "eyes impure". If their bodies and faces, their beauty and youth cannot be seen, then they will not be coveted. However, such a way of "protecting" has its own way of harming those involved. It does not "shield a woman's eyes from tears". It does not protect their feelings, does not take their wishes into consideration. It only limits their lives, their abilities, their happiness.

Crank

Answer:

People for top positions in organization must have clear sense of right and wrong and courage and honesty to say the truth.

In this case, the authors is trying to persuade the readers of the importance of clarity of thought, courage and honesty to say the truth for people on top positions on an organization. He opines that these qualities are even more important than intelligence and substantive knowledge. The author has just named these qualities, he is yet to prove (mat be later) that why and how these qualities are more important than other qualities.
