READING COMPREHENSION: Directions: Read the passage carefully once and detect its theme. Note what the questions are about. Answer the questions. Passage (Question 28-30): The purpose of education is to make the student an expert in his subject. This must be clearly understood, and mere muddling through lessons and lectures and books and passing examinations are relegated to secondary importance as means to endwhich is excellence in the field chosen. But there are so many fields, and no man can become an expert in all the fields. It is necessary to decide which fields are the important ones that a man should know well. It is clear that one's own work is the most important. This has been realised and modern civilization has accordingly provided vocational education. It is now possible to acquire high professional skill in the various fields, medicine, engineering production, commerce and so onbut with good and bad mixed together, and no standard for guidance. The purpose of education is to make the student: (A) An expert in all fields (B) An expert in his subject (C) Only capable of earning (D) Confident only What, according to the writer, is the end ? (A) Excellence in the field chosen (B) Passing the examination (C) Earning more and more money (D) Cramming lectures and books

The modern civilization has provided: (A) Vocational education (B) Art of conversation (C) Adult education (D) Higher education Passage (Question 31-32): According to Aristotle, the most important question in the physical world was the search for happiness. He was not an idealist preaching impossible ideals and counsels of perfection. His scientific training made him a realist who believed that happiness was the aim of life and every activity, even ethics, was subordinate to it. He tries to explore the nature of happiness and explains it by differentiating man from other animals in that he possesses the thinking faculty by which he masters the earth and surpasses all living beings and its development will give him fulfilment and happiness. In the given paragraph: (A) Aristotle surpasses the earth and all living beings (B) Aristotle tries to explore the nature of physical world (C) Aristotle speaks about all living beings (D) Aristotle tries to explore the nature of happiness Man differs from other animals in having: (A) A brain (B) Speaking faculty (C) Thinking faculty (D) Eating faculty Passage (Question 33-37): A duty is an obligation. It is something we owe to others as social beings when we live together. We must let others live with us. May right of living implies my duty to my fellowmen to allow them the same conditions of life. Infact, rights and duties are co-related. What is a right in regard to one is a duty in regard to others. Rights and duties are two sides of the same coin. We should always observe from the stand point of others. Thus they are duties. Moral duty is more effective than the legal. A moral duty is that which is upon the people on moral grounds. It is my moral duty to help the poor because of being a member of the society. I must try to create these conditions which contribute to the welfare of humanity. Similarly, I owe a duty to my parents-to be obedient and respectful to them. This duty originates from the sense of responsibility which is directly related with our conscience. So this maxim is concerned with a moral duty which a man should owe without the legal bondage. Sense of duty is paramount for the proper development of civilization in the 20th century. Hypocrisy and diplomacy are quite reverse to the sense of duty. Hypocrisy involves wickedness duty involves sincerity and faithfulness. Rights and duties according to the passage are: (A) Co-related (B) Two sides of the same coin (C) Neither of the above (D) Both (A) and (B) According to the author, the moral duty is: (A) Enjoined upon animals (B) Helping the rich (C) More effective than the legal duty (D) Secondary to the legal duty

Q40.

Where does the duty originate from ? (A) From responsibility but not from conscience (B) From responsibility which is related with conscience (C) From legal bondage (D) From hypocrisy and diplomacy Point out the incorrect statement. Hypocrisy and diplomacy do not support the sense of duty Hypocrisy involves wickedness Duty involves sincerity Sense of duty is not important for the development of civilization The author: (A) Has sense of responsibility (B) Doesn't have sense of duty (C) Both (A) and (B) (D) Neither (A) nor (B) Passage (Question 38-40): When we are suddenly confronted with any terrible danger, the change of nature we undergo is equally great. In some cases, fear paralyses us. Like animals, we stand still, powerless to move a step in fright or to lift a hand in defence of our lives, and sometimes we are seized with panic, and again, act more like the inferior animals than rational beings. On the other hand, frequently in cases of sudden extreme peril, which cannot be escaped by fright, and must be instantly faced, even the most timid men at once as if by miracle, become possessed of the necessary courage, sharp quick apprehension, and swift decision. This is a miracle very common in nature. Man and the inferior animals alike, when confronted with almost certain death ‘gather resolution from despair’ but there can really be no trace of so debilitating a feeling in the person fighting, or prepared to fight for dear life. At such times, the mind is clearer than it has ever been; the nerves are steel, there is nothing felt but a wonderful strength and daring. Looking back at certain perilous moments in my own life, I remember them with a kind of joy, not that there was any joyful excitement then; but because they brought me a new experience, a new nature, as it were and lifted me for a time above myself. Q38. An appropriate title for the above passage would be: (A) The change of nature (B) Courage and panic (C) The will to fight (D) The miracle of confronting danger The author names three different ways in which a man may react to sudden danger. What are they? (A) He may be paralysed with fear, or seized with panic, or as if by miracle, become possessed of the necessary courage, and face the danger (B) He may be paralysed with fear, run away or fight (C) He may flee in panic, or fight back or stand still (D) He may be paralysed with fear, seized with panic or act like an inferior animal The distinction between ‘inferior animals’ and ‘rational beings’ is that: (A) The latter are stronger

(B) (C) (D)

The latter are capable of reasoning things out whereas the former cannot do so The former are incapable of fighting The latter are clever

SECTION 3. ANALYTICAL ABILITY NO.
