Bans on music and dance caused significant disruption to the cultural life of small Tibetan communities such as those in Porong. This is easily understood if you consider the social context of music-making in Tibetan culture. Songs are themselves communal activities in Tibet and specific musical themes exist for just about any social occasion you care to think of. From building roofs and tamping clay floors to milking yaks and riding horses, from courtship and drinking to the celebration of historical events, everyday life is inextricably bound together by the music that pervades it.___
aThe importance of song in these community evenings shows one of many aspects of Tibetan society, which is reliant on music.
bTake away a community's music and you take away not only its way of relaxing and expressing itself, but also an important part of its cultural identity.
c
For more than a decade, the melodies, lyrics and dance steps to hundreds of songs were archived in the minds of a handful of village singers.
dWithout their own traditions during the Cultural Revolution, Tibetans had less to remind themselves of where they came from.
eOne can hear riding songs, drinking songs, love songs and milking songs, which were performed unaccompanied by one singer, others were part of a group dance.
Library shelves groan under an insupportable mass of volumes about the dreadful flea-borne pestilence that spread across Europe in the middle of the 14th century — the number of books being equaled only by the scores that deal with the very similar plague that killed thousands in London three centuries later. The Black Death, the Awful Malady, the Vast Pestilence, the Great Mortality, the plague has been called by many names, and is in many senses a perfect topic for the lazy historian — the subject matter is adequately horrifying, the known descriptions are vividly readable, the social implications are sufficiently varied to allow for the kind of wild speculations that make for a book publicist's dream. _____________________________________________
a But the accounts that have resulted in the past all seem to tell in essence much the same story, and in the very same way.
bRumours are heard of distant illness, neighbours appear with lurid tales, and then suddenly local people become afflicted.
cThat is the Black Death as sound bite, and rare is the account that manages to take it very much further.
dHuge swellings appear in groins and armpits, leaving thousands to be limed and buried, while stunned communities try desperately to recover sanity and order.
eNo wonder that centuries after it happened, the Black Death is still a bestseller.

(A) The number of beneficial soil bacteria increases whenever any kind of plant material is mixed into garden soil.
(B) Nutrients released by dried grass clippings are immediately available to beneficial soil bacteria.
(C) Some dried grass clippings retain nutrients originally derived from commercial lawn fertilizers, and thus provide additional enrichment to the soil.

For the 1 st question my take is -
The answer is 'C' as -
A => I would say is just a re-statement
B => Mentions relaxing and expressing, too much far fetched hence elimianted
C => "songs were archived in the minds of a handful of village singers", handful points to small tibetian communities
D => talks about reminiding one self where they came from, hence it cant be 'significant disruption to the cultural life', hence eliminated
E => Gives specifics of songs whihc is not required, bcoz we are looking for a link of "life disruption of small communities"
Hence only left is "C"
