Question
A. Passivity is not, of course, universal.
B. In areas where there are no lords or laws, or in frontier zones where all men go armed, the attitude of the peasantry may well be different.
C. So indeed it may be on the fringe of the un-submissive.
D. However, for most of the soil-bound peasants the problem is not whether to be normally passive or active, but when to pass from one state to another.
E. This depends on an assessment of the political situation.

Answer: Option D
:
D
Option D
Going through the statements, either statement A or statement B can be the opening statement. The reason for this is that all other statements have pronouns in them. Logically, we could infer that AB is the pair and not BA. In statement A, the author says "Passivity is not universal" and then in statement B an explanation is given to support his statement A.
Hence,option D is the correct answer.
