UGC NET Questions (Paper – 1)

Statements A, B, D, E and F correctly describe components of a research report, while C is wrong. Statement A is true because introductions set the context and objectives, and statement B is correct that methodology explains design, sample and tools. Statement D accurately portrays the discussion as interpreting findings relative to hypotheses and prior research, and statement E is correct about listing cited sources consistently. Statement F is also true, as appendices hold supplementary materials, whereas C is false because methods are normally described before results.

Option A:
Option A groups C and D as wrong, but D is actually correct in describing the role of the discussion section. Misclassifying D as wrong alongside C leads to an inaccurate set of statements. Therefore this option is not acceptable.

Option B:
Option B incorrectly labels A and C as wrong. While C is false, A is true because introductions properly present background, problem and objectives. Treating A as wrong demonstrates a misunderstanding of thesis structure.

Option C:
Option C considers B and C as wrong, but B correctly states what belongs in the methodology section. By misclassifying B, this option mixes a true statement with a false one and is thus invalid.

Option D:
Option D correctly identifies C as the only wrong statement. It acknowledges that methods typically precede results so that readers understand how data were obtained before seeing outcomes. As it leaves all other statements intact as true, this option is the correct answer.
