Radhakrishnan was a/an ................
Answer: D
The key gives ambassador of Indian Philosophy and Culture.
The passage calls Radhakrishnan 'a bridge-builder between India and the West', at home in both philosophical traditions, and says he was 'held up in academic circles as a representative of Hinduism to the West'. A person who represents a culture abroad and links it with another is an ambassador of that philosophy and culture.
'Propagator of Hinduism' is partly supported (he tried to 'promulgate' it), but it is narrower than the passage, which also stresses his command of Western philosophy and his bridging role. 'Researcher of Western Philosophy' picks up only his knowledge of it. 'Follower of traditional Hinduism' misses that he sought to define and defend Hinduism as philosophically coherent and ethically viable, not merely to follow it.
