Five statements are given below, labeled A, B, C, & D . Among these, four statements are in logical order and form coherent paragraph. From the given options, choose the option the does not fit into the theme of the paragraph.
A. Among the people who praised it were T. S. Eliot, Herbert Read, Aldous Huxley, John dos Passes, Ezra Pound--on the whole, not the writers who are in fashion at this moment. And in fact the subject matter of the book, and to a certain extent its mental atmosphere, belong to the twenties rather than to the thirties.
B. TROPIC OF CANCER is a novel in the first person, or autobiography in the form of a novel, whichever way you like to look at it.
C. During the boom years, when dollars were plentiful and the exchange-value of the franc was low, Paris was invaded by such a swarm of artists, writers, students, dilettanti, sight- seers, debauchees, and plain idlers as the world has probably never seen. The entire story revolves around these idlers.
D. It is a story of the American Paris, but not along quite the usual lines, because the Americans who figure in it happen to be people without money.

Five statements are given below, labeled A, B, C& D . Among these, four statements are in logical order and form coherent paragraph. From the given options, choose the option the does not fit into the theme of the paragraph.
A. The word ‘Fascism’ has now no meaning except in so far as it signifies "something not desirable." The words “Democracy, Socialism, Freedom, Patriotic, Realistic, Justice”, have each of them several different meanings which cannot be reconciled with one another.
B. In certain kinds of writing, particularly in art criticism and literary criticism, it is normal to come across long passages which are almost completely lacking in meaning.
C. When one critic writes, "The outstanding feature of Mr. X's work is its living quality," while another writes, "The immediately striking thing about Mr. X's work is its peculiar deadness," the reader accepts this as a simple difference of opinion If words like ‘Black’ and ‘White’ were involved, instead of the jargon words Dead andLiving, he would see at once that language was being used in an improper way; many political words are similarly abused.
D. Words like “Romantic, Plastic, Values, Human, Dead, Sentimental, Natural, Vitality”, as used in art criticism, are strictly meaningless, in the sense that they not only do not point to any discoverable object, but are hardly even expected to do so by the reader.

A. I have little direct evidence about the atrocities in the Spanish civil war; I know that some were committed by the Republicans, and far more (they are still continuing) by the Fascists.
B. Everyone believes in the atrocities of the enemy and disbelieves in those of his own side, without ever bothering to examine the evidence.
C. But unfortunately the truth about atrocities is far worse than that they are lied about and made into propaganda.
