Easy

In the question given below few sentences are given which are grammatically correct and meaningful. Connect them by the word given before the statements in the best possible way without changing the intended meaning. Choose your answer accordingly from the options to form a correct, coherent sentence.

"But"

(I) Doordarshan is also a great window to the global market place. Goods and services are continuously being sold through Doordarshan's dream world.

(II) All news is elite centered; but Doordarshan telecast is usually more ethnocentric. Its accent is on people, places and events.

(III) With over 1 billion people talking in several languages and a variety of lifestyles to boot, it is obvious one cannot address all of them together all the time.

(IV) Doordarshan's promotions must go beyond mere reportage of facts, and capture the story between the lines.

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 2

Option 1 doesn't make an appropriate pair, as I and III are not contrasting statements. "But" can only connect two contrasting statements.

Option 2 makes an appropriate pair. "But" connects II and IV appropriately. II talks about how Doordarshan telecast is ethnocentric i.e. evaluates just from one's culture, but IV talks about how it must go beyond mere reportage of facts and capture the story between the lines. Perfect contrast.

Option 3 and 4's pairs aren't even related, both in both options are about different topics.

(III) Secularism today is being taken as a threat to religious identities, to the existence of religious diversities, though secularism was never conceived as such.

(IV) This is the reason that secularism today has come to mean as preservation of religious minorities in their traditional modes.
