Answer 2

After reading the passage, we can say that the most appropriate answer will be:

d. Both A and R are false.

• In the passage, it is mentioned that some big changes are observed in the adolescence period. The changes include physical, sexual, cognitive, social, and emotional changes. In the Assertion(A) it is said that adolescents do not get impressed easily and do not confide in people with their secrets but with adolescence, the emotional and social changes do not let any individual get impressed easily. Hence the assertion is wrong.
• The Reason(R) says that adolescents are less egocentric, this is not true because with adolescence the emotional changes start to appear in an individual. Therefore if something does not go in his/her way that is when ego takes birth in the mind. Hence the Reason(R) is also false.
