आधुनिकतावाद, अपनी व्यापक परिभाषा में, आधुनिक सोच, चरित्र, या प्रथा है अधिक विशेष रूप से, यह शब्द उन्नीसवीं सदी के अंत और बीसवीं सदी के आरम्भ में मूल रूप से पश्चिमी समाज में व्यापकतम पैमाने पर और सुदूर परिवर्तनों से उत्पन्न होने वाली सांस्कृतिक प्रवृत्तियों के एक समूह एवं सम्बद्ध सांस्कृतिक आन्दोलनों की एक सारणी दोनों का वर्णन करता है। यह शब्द अपने भीतर उन लोगों की गतिविधियों और उत्पादन को समाहित करता है जो एक उभरते सम्पूर्ण औद्योगीकृत विश्व की नवीन आर्थिक, सामाजिक एवं राजनीतिक स्थितियों में पुराने होते जा रहे कला, वास्तुकला, साहित्य, धार्मिक विश्वास, सामाजिक संगठन और दैनिक जीवन के "पारंपरिक" रूपों को महसूस करते थे। आधुनिकतावाद ने ज्ञानोदय की सोच की विलंबकारी निश्चितता को और एक करुणामय, सर्वशक्तिशाली निर्माता के अस्तित्व को भी मानने से अस्वीकार कर दिया। इसका मतलब यह नहीं है कि सभी आधुनिकतावादी लोगों या आधुनिकतावादी आन्दोलनों ने या तो धर्म को या ज्ञानोदय की सोच के पहलुओं को मानने से इंकार कर दिया है, इसके बजाय कि आधुनिकतावाद को अतीत काल की ''सूक्तियों'' के पूछताछ के रूप में देखा जा सकता है। आधुनिकतावाद की एक मुख्य विशेषता आत्म-चेतना है। इसकी वजह से अक्सर रूप और कार्य पर प्रयोग किया जाता है जो प्रक्रियाओं और प्रयुक्त सामग्रियों की तरफ (और मतिहीनता की अगली प्रवृत्ति की तरफ) ध्यान आकर्षित करता है। "मेक इट न्यू!" के लिए कवि एज़्रा पाउंड पर रूप निदर्शनात्मक निषेधाज्ञा लग गई थी। आधुनिकतावादियों के "नव निर्माण" में एक नया ऐतिहासिक युग शामिल था या नहीं, यह अब बहस का मुद्दा बना हुआ है।

किंतु अरे यह क्या,
इतना आदर, इतनी करुणा, सम्मान?
प्रथम दृष्टि में ही दे डाला
तुमने मुझे अहो मतिमान!
मैं अपने झीने आँचल में
इस अपार करुणा का भार
कैसे भला सँभाल सकूँगी
उनका वह स्नेह अपार।
लख महानता उनकी पल-पल
देख रही हूँ अपनी ओर
मेरे लिए बहुत थी केवल
उनकी तो करुणा की कोर।

हवा का ज़ोर वर्षा की झड़ी, झाड़ों का गिर पड़ना
कहीं गरजन का जाकर दूर सिर के पास फिर पड़ना
उमड़ती नदी का खेती की छाती तक लहर उठना
ध्वजा की तरह बिजली का दिशाओं में फहर उठना
ये वर्षा के अनोखे दृश्य जिसको प्राण से प्यारे
जो चातक की तरह ताकता है बादल घने कजरारे
जो भूखा रहकर, धरती चीरकर जग को खिलाता है
जो पानी वक्त पर आए नहीं तो तिलमिलाता है

Read the following passage carefully.
Discursive writing refers to a style of writing that presents a balanced argument by considering various points of view. This type of writing allows the writer to explore different perspectives and draw conclusions based on evidence and reasoning. Discursive writing provides an opportunity for the writer to critically analyze a topic and consider different perspectives. This style of writing can also be used to present a convincing argument and persuade the reader to accept a particular viewpoint. Additionally, discursive writing helps the writer to develop analytical skills and improves critical thinking abilities.
However, discursive writing can also have some disadvantages. One of the main challenges is finding credible sources of information to support one's arguments. In addition, it can be difficult to keep the writing objective and neutral, especially when dealing with controversial or sensitive topics. Moreover, discursive writing can become repetitive and monotonous if the writer focuses too much on presenting different perspectives without offering a conclusion. To effectively write a discursive essay, it is important to research the topic thoroughly and gather relevant information from credible sources. The writer should also aim to present a balanced argument by considering both sides of the issue. Additionally, the writer should focus on developing clear and well-structured paragraphs and use transitional words to guide the reader through the argument.
In conclusion, discursive writing is a valuable tool for exploring different perspectives and drawing well-reasoned conclusions. However, it is important to approach the task with care and consideration to ensure that the writing is objective and presents a balanced argument. With the right preparation and strategy, discursive writing can be an enjoyable and effective way to express one's opinions and thoughts on a particular topic.
Q. What is an antonym for the word "objective" as used in the second paragraph of the passage?
Direction: Read the given passages carefully and answer the question that follows.
Everything that men do or think concerns either the satisfaction of the needs they feel or the need to escape from pain. This must be kept in mind when we seek to understand spiritual or intellectual movements and the way in which they develop, for feeling and longing are the motive forces of all human striving and productivity – however nobly these latter may display themselves to us.
What, then, are the feelings and the needs which have brought mankind to religious thought and to faith in the widest sense? A moment’s consideration shows that the most varied emotions stand at the cradle of religious thought and experience.
In primitive people, it is, first of all, fear that awakens religious ideas – fear of hunger, of wild animals, of illness, and of death. Since the understanding of causal connections is usually limited on this level of existence, the human soul forges a being, more or less like itself, on whose will and activities depend the experiences which it fears. One hopes to win the favor of this being, by deeds and sacrifices, which according to the tradition of the race are supposed to appease the being or to make him well disposed to man. I call this the religion of fear.
This religion is considerably established, though not caused, by the formation of priestly caste which claims to mediate between the people and the being they fear and so attains a position of power. Often a leader or despot will combine the function of the priesthood with its own temporal rule for the sake of greater security, or an alliance may exist between the interests of political power and the priestly caste.
Q. “Human soul forges a being” means:

As I Watch You Grow
Do you know how much you mean to me?
As you grow into what you will be.
You came from within, from just beneath my heart.
It's there you'll always be, though your own life will now start.
You're growing so fast it sends me a whirl,
With misty eyes I ask, Where's my little girl?
I know sometimes to you I seem harsh and so unfair,
But one day you will see, I taught you well because I care.
The next few years will so quickly fly,
With laughter and joy, mixed with a few tears to cry.
As you begin your growth to womanhood, this fact you must know,
You'll always be my source of pride, no matter where you go.
You must stand up tall and proud, within you feel no fear,
For all you dreams and goals sit before you very near.
With God's love in your heart and the world by its tail,
You'll always be my winner, and victory will prevail.
For you this poem was written, with help from above,
To tell you in a rhythm of your Mother's heartfelt love!

Q. The poem addresses a
Directions: Read the passage given below and answer the question that follows.
Once upon a time, there lived a sparrow in a tree. He was very happy to have a beautiful and comfortable nest of his own in the tree. The sparrow used to fly to far off places to pick at grains from so many fields, full of crops. At the Sun set, he would return to his perch. One day, the sparrow ate his fill, but could not return to his nest because of the heavy rains which continued for the whole night. The sparrow had to spend the whole night in a big banyan tree a little distance away from home.
The next morning, when the rain stopped and the sky became clear, the sparrow returned to his tree. He was astonished to find a rabbit occupying his beautiful and comfortable nest. The sparrow lost his temper and spoke to the rabbit, "It's my home you're sitting in. Please quit this place at once".
"Do not talk like a fool", replied the rabbit. "Trees, rivers and lakes do not belong to anyone. Places like these are yours only so long as you are living in. If someone else occupies it in your absence, it belongs to the new occupant. So, go away and do not disturb me anymore".
But, the sparrow was not satisfied with this illogical reply. He said, "Let's ask a person of wisdom and only then our case will be settled".
At a distance from the tree, there lived a wild cat. The cat, somehow, overheard the discussion that took place between the sparrow and the rabbit.
The cat immediately thought of a plan, took a holy dip in the river, and then sat like a priest and began chanting God's name in a loud tone. When the rabbit and the sparrow heard the cat chanting God's name, they approached him with a hope to get impartial justice and requested him to pass a judgement in the matter.
The cat became very happy to have both of them in front of him. He pretended to listen to their arguments. But, as soon as the right opportunity came, the cat pounced upon both of them and killed and ate them together with great relish.
(from Panchtantra)
