UGC answer is C: ii, i, iii, iv But I think the correct series is ii, i, iv, iii, there are no series is correct. I think the correct answer is None of the Above. So, this question is given to all.

 Question No. 8:

"Women are closer to nature than men." What kind of perspective is this?

(A) Realist

(B) Essentialist

(C) Feminist

(D) Deep ecology

UGC answer is B: Essentialist.

Here Eco-feminism says that women are closer to nature than men are. This closeness, therefore, makes women more nurturing and caring towards their environment. So, I think the correct answer is C: Feminist

Question No. 33: While delivering lecture if there is some disturbance in the class, a teacher should

(A) Keep quiet for a while and then continue.

(B) Punish those causing disturbance

(C) Motivate to teach those causing disturbance

(D) Not bother of what is happening in the class

UGC answer C: Motivate to teach those causing disturbance

Please see R. Gupta's Popular Master Guide UGC-NET Junior Research Fellowship and Lectureship Exam published by Ramesh Publishing House, New Delhi in 2012 page No. 7-13. Correct answer is A: Keep quiet for a while and then continue Because in option (C) Meaning of Motivate to teach those causing disturbance is (Jo badha daal rahein hon unhein padhane ke liye parerit karein. Jab ke Hindi mein is ka answer hai Jo badha daal rahein hon unhein seekhne ke liye parerit karein). So, the given answer by UGC is totally wrong.

Poole's Index to Periodical Literature

'Every question in literature, religion, politics, social science, political economy...finds its latest and freshest interpretation in the current periodicals.'
Introduction to Poole's Index to Periodical Literature, W.F.Poole, 1882.

Poole's Index to Periodical Literature is the first and only systematic article level index to the subject matter of 19th century periodicals. Originally published in six volumes between 1882 and 1908,

Question No. 37:  Assertion (A): Indian National Bibliography is the most comprehensive source of Indian publications.

Reason (R): National Library of Kolkata is entitled to receive one copy of each Indian publication under Delivery of Book Act.

Codes:

(A) (A) is true, but (R) is false.

(B) (A) is false, but (R) is true.

(C) Both (A) and (R) are true.

(D) Both (A) and (R) are false.

UGC answer (B) (A) is false, but (R) is true. Ideally speaking a national bibliography as well as Indian National Bibliography should record all documents, published or unpublished, irrespective of the agency issuing them, covering trade as well as non-trade items, irrespective of the form of material, language, subject, or time of publication. So, I think Indian National Bibliography is the most comprehensive source of Indian publications is correct. So, the correct option is (C) Both (A) and (R) are true.
