Question

A well-oiled machinery for the creation and diffusion of fads is now an entrenched part of the modern economy. Its methods will increasingly be adopted by others as they recognize the inevitability of the ever shorter product cycle. The line between ‘fad’ and ordinary product will progressively blur. We are moving swiftly into the era of the temporary product, made by temporary methods to serve temporary needs.________________________________

Options:

A . In the past few years alone we have witnessed the rise or collapse in popularity of innumerable oddities that reflect the rapidly changing pop culture

B . Here, too the present already provides us with a foretaste of the future

C . The turnover of things in out lives thus grows even more frenetic

D . Sophisticates in the ‘fad’ business prepare in advance for shorter and shorter product cycles

E . In short, taking risks in childhood is necessary for children’s intellectual development.

Answer: Option C
