• C. So indeed it may be on the fringe of the unsubmissive.
• D. However, for most of the soil-bound peasants the problem is not whether to be normally passive or active, but when to pass from one state to another.

Solution

Between the options, the best options for the opening sentence seem to be A and B. Again the option with B as the first sentence does not flow logically.

A-B is a better sequence as it moves from general (universal) to specific (in areas).

The correct option is B.
