Discussion

Explanation:

Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE The paragraph starts with a location (as a backdrop) and moves on to describe things associated with the location. While various things are described about the location, we are looking for a sentence that completes the ideas stated in the paragraph. The paragraph juxtaposes various disparate ideas and cultures together: note the saree and sarong, the Indian Jews, and the image of religious tolerance.
Option 2 is a disconnect from the main idea of the paragraph – it talks about religious discrimination which is not an idea found in the paragraph.
Option 1 is about Matancherry, which the whole paragraph is about. It brings together the ideas in the paragraph to a logical, cohesive whole.
Option 5, with ‘thus’ for pretty pastel streets is disconnected. No reason is provided in the paragraph for pastel streets being popular.
It is the majority community which has to show tolerance towards a minority group, not the other way round. The paragraph clearly states “home to the last twelve....” indicating the Indian Jews to be very few in numbers. Option 3 can be eliminated.
Option 4 is contrary to the data provided in the passage.
Hence, the correct answer is option 1.
