Directions (1-8): Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions
given below it.
The work, which Gandhi had taken up, was not only achievement of political

r’s
freedom but also the establishment of a social order based on truth and non-
violence, unity and peace, equality and universal brotherhood and maximum
freedom for all. This unfinished part of his experiment was perhaps even more
difficult to achieve than the achievement of political freedom. In the political
struggle, the fight was against a foreign power and all one could do, was either
ha
join it or wish it success and give it their moral support. In inaugurating the
communal order of his pattern, there was a sparkling possibility of a skirmish
arising between groups and classes of our own people. Experience shows that
man values his possessions even more than his life because, in the former, he

E
sees the means for perpetuation and survival of his descendants even after his
body is reduced to ashes. A new order cannot be proven without fundamentally
d
changing the mind and attitude of men towards property and, at some stage or
the other, the ?haves? have to yield place to the have-nots. We have seen, in our
time, attempts to achieve a kind of egalitarian society and the picture of it after it
ee

was achieved. But this was done, by and large, through the use of physical force.
In the ultimate analysis, it is difficult, if not impossible, to say that the instinct to
possess has been rooted out or that, it will not reappear in an even worse form
under s different guise. It may even be that like a gas kept confined within
C
containers under great pressure, or water held by a big dam, once a barrier
brakes, the reaction will one day sweep back with a violence equal in extent and
Sr

intensity to what was used to establish and maintain the outward egalitarian
form. This obligatory equality contains in its dearest the seed of its own destruction.
The root cause of class conflict is possessiveness or the acquisitive instinct. So
Long as the ideal that is to be achieved is one of securing the maximum material
satisfaction, possessiveness is neither suppresses nor eliminated but grows on
what it feeds. Nor does it cease to be such it is possessiveness, still whether it is
confined to only a few or is shared by many. If egalitarianism is to endure, it has
to be based not on the possession of the maximum material goods by few or by all
C
but on voluntary, enlightened renunciation of those goods, which cannot be shared
by others or can be enjoyed only at the expense of others. This calls for substitution
of spiritual values for purely material ones. The paradise of material satisfaction
that is sometimes equated with neither progress these days spells peace nor
progress. Mahatma Gandhi has shown us how the acquisitive instinct inherent in
man could be transmuted by the adoption of the ideals of trusteeship by those
who have for the benefit of all those who have not so, that instead of leading to
exploitation and conflict, it would become a means and incentive for the
amelioration and progress of society respectively.

Directions (28-36): Read the following passage and answer the given questions.
Though US prides itself on being a leader in the World community a recent
report shows that it lags far behind other industrialized countries in meeting the
needs of its youngest and most vulnerable citizens. The US has a higher infant
mortality rate, a higher proportion of low birth weight babies, a smaller proportion
of babies immunized against childhood diseases and a much higher rate of
adolescent pregnancies. These findings, described as “quiet crisis” requiring
immediate and far reaching action, appeared in a report prepared by a task force
of educators, doctors, politicians and business people. According to the report ,a

r’s
fourth of the nation’s 12 million infants and toddlers live in poverty. As many as
half confront risk factors that could harm their ability to develop intellectually,
physically and socially. Child immunizations are too low, more children are born
into poverty, more are in substandard care, while their parents work and more
are being raised by single parents. When taken together, these and other risk
factors can lead to educational and health problems that are much harder and
more costly to reverse.
ha
The crisis begins in the womb with unplanned parenthood. Women with
unplanned pregnancies are less likely to seek pre natal care. In the US 80% of
teenage pregnancies and 56% of all pregnancies are unplanned. The problems

E
continue after birth, where unplanned pregnancies and unstable partnerships often
go hand in hand. Since 1950, the number of single parent families has nearly
d
tripled. More than 25% of all births today are of unmarried mothers. As the number
of single parent families grows and more women enter the work force. Infants and
toddlers are increasingly in the care of people other than their parents.
ee

Most distubingly, recent statistics show that American parents are

increasingly neglecting or abusing their children. In only four years from 1987-
1991, the numbe rof children in foster care increased by over 50%. Babies under
the age of one are the fastest growing category of children entering foster care.
C
This crisis affects children under the age of three most severely, the report says.
Yet, it is this period – from infancy through preshool years – that sets the stage
Sr

for child’s future.

4) Increasing cases of teenage couples getting divorced 5) None of these
30. Which of the following statements is not true in the context of the passage?
1) The number of single parent families today is approximately three times than

2)the number of children in the US entering foster care has decreased after 1991.
