Question 1 Question Id : 251

Directions: Study the following passage to answer the question that follows.

Passage
In terms of the total energy consumed, the largest consumer is understandably the industrial sector which accounts for nearly half the total energy used in the country today. This is
followed by the transport sector which consumes about 25%, the household sector (about 14%) and the agricultural sector (about 9%), in that order. This last sector has shown
considerable increase in energy use over the last four decades. Among the primary fuels, the relative proportion of coal has dropped from nearly 80% to 40% and that of oil has gone
up from 17% to 44% over the same period.
Total consumption of energy in India today is equivalent to 291 million tons of oil. Of this 26% comes from wood. On a per capita basis it works out to about one litre of oil per day,
which is extremely low by international standards. The future energy demand depends upon the level of development envisaged and also on the sections of people affected by it.
There is clearly no escape from the utilisation of renewable energy sources in a big way if the gap between the desired levels of energy supply and available resources has to be kept
at the minimum.

Which of the following styles has been adopted by the author in writing the passage?
Answer : Option Id
(A) Data-based, objective, positive, solution-oriented 251001
(B) Data-based, but coloured by socialism 251002
(C) Highly subjective with bias for poor people 251003
(D) Objective, descriptive, lacking clarity 251004

Right Answer : Right Option Id : 251001

Data-based objective positive solution-oriented
