Reading the passage
The stages are stated directly: separation, alienation, then reintegration. Someone leaves a secure social position, loses status in an alienated state, and finally returns to society with a heightened status. We just need that order in the answer's wording.
Working the answers
- A
This places alienation before dislocation. The account begins with separation from security; alienation follows it.
- BCorrect
These are the three stages in the stated order: separation, alienation, reintegration. The wording matches directly.
- C
This begins with integration and ends with disintegration. The described process ends with reintegration, so the direction is wrong.
- D
Dislocation can describe the initial separation, but the second stage is alienation, not reconciliation.
- E
Transformation describes the effect of the entire process. It doesn't identify the middle stage, alienation.
