Instruction : सारा संसार नीले गगन के तले अनंत काल से रहता आया है। हम थोड़ी दूरी पर ही देखते हैं क्षितिज तक, जहाँ धरती और आकाश हमें मिलते दिखाई देते हैं । लेकिन जब हम वहाँ पहुँचते हैं, तो यह नज़ारा आगे खिसकता चला जाता है । और इस नज़ारे का कोई ओर-छोर हमें नहीं दिखाई देता है । ठीक इसी तरह हमारा जीवन भी है। जि़ंदगी की न जाने कितनी उपमाएँ दी जा चुकी हैं, लेकिन कोई भी उपमा पूर्ण नहीं मानी गई, क्योंकि जि़ंदगी के इतने पक्ष हैं कि कोई भी उपमा उस पर पूरी तरह फिट नहीं बैठती । बर्नार्ड शॉ जीवन को एक खुली किताब मानते थे, और यह भी मानते थे कि सभी जीवों को समान रूप से जीने का हक है। वह चाहते थे कि इंसान अपने स्वार्थ में अंधा होकर किसी दूसरे जीव के जीने का हक न मारे । यदि इंसान ऐसा करता है, तो यह बहुत बड़ा अन्याय है । हमारे विचार स्वाभाविक रूप से एक-दूसरे से मेल नहीं खाते हैं, लेकिन इसका मतलब यह नहीं होता कि हम दूसरों को उसके जीने के हक से वंचित कर दें । यह खुला आसमान, यह प्रकृति और यह पूरा भू-मंडल हमें दरअसल यही बता रहा है कि हाथी से लेकर चींटी तक, सभी को समान रूप से जीवन बिताने का हक है। जिस तरह से खुले आसमान के नीचे हर प्राणी बिना किसी डर के जीने, साँस लेने का अधिाकारी है, उसी तरह से मानव-मात्र का स्वभाव भी होना चाहिए कि वह अपने जीने के साथ दूसरों से उनके जीने का हक न छीने । यह आसमान हमें जिस तरह से भय से छुटकारा दिलाता है, उसी तरह से हमें भी मानव-जाति से इतर जीवों को डर से छुटकारा दिलाकर उन्हें जीने के लिए पूरा अवसर देना चाहिए । दूसरों के जीने के हक को छीनने से बड़ा अपराध या पाप कुछ नहीं हो सकता ।(From Ques 26 to Ques 30)
Ques 26. आसमान हमें दिलाता है
1. साथ-साथ रहने का अनुशासन
2. भय से छुटकारे का आश्वासन
3. भयभीत न करने का आग्रह
4. रक्षा करने का वचन


Ques 27. हम बहुत बड़ा अन्याय कर रहे होते हैं, यदि
1. किसी को लूट लेते हैं
2. किसी को टिकने नहीं देते
3. किसी को जीने का अधिकार नहीं देते
4. किसी से दुश्मनी रखते हैं


Ques 28. बर्नार्ड शॉ ने जीवन की उपमा किससे दी है ?
1. खुली पुस्तक से
2. सभी जीवों
3. क्षितिज से
4. पढ़ी जा रही पुस्तक से


Ques 29. ‘क्षितिज’ किसे कहते हैं ?
1. जहाँ धरती और आकाश पास-पास होते हैं

Instruction : When wealth came into existence, a moral structure was made around money. The Puritan legacy inhibited luxury and self-indulgence. Thoughtful people spread a practical gospel that emphasized hard work, temperance and frugality and the result was quite remarkable.

The world has been affluent since its founding. But it was, by and large, not corrupted by wealth. For centuries, it remained industrious, ambitious and frugal. Over the past 30 years, much of that has been shredded. The social norms and institutions that encouraged frugality and spending what you earn have been undermined. The institutions that encourage debt and living for the moment have been strengthened. The moral guardians are forever looking for decadence out of movies and reality shows. But the most rampant decadence today is financial decadence, the trampling of decent norms about how to use and harness money.

The deterioration of financial traditions has meant two things. First, it has meant an explosion of debt that inhibits social mobility and ruins lives. Second, the transformation has led to a stark financial polarization. On one hand, there is what is called an investor class. It has tax-deferred savings plans, as well as an army of financial advisers. On the other hand, there is the lottery class, people with little access to financial planning but plenty of access to payday lenders, credit cards and lottery agents.

The loosening of financial inhibition has meant more options for the well-educated but more temptation and chaos for the most vulnerable. Social norms, the invisible threads that guide behaviour, have deteriorated. Over the past years, people have been more socially conscious about protecting the environment and inhaling tobacco. They have become less socially conscious about money and debt. The agents of destruction are many and State governments have also played a role. They hawk their lottery products with aggression, which some people call a tax on stupidity. Twenty per cent of the world’s population consists of frequent players, spending about $60 billion a year. Aside from the financial toll, the moral toll is comprehensive. Here is the government, the guardian of order, telling people that they don't have to work to build for the future. They can strike it rich for nothing.

Payday lenders have also played a role. They seductively offer fast cash-at absurd interest rates-to 15 million people every month. Credit card companies have played a role. Instead of targeting the financially astute, who pay off their debts, they have found that they can make money off the young and vulnerable. Fifty-six per cent of students in their final year of college carry four or more credit cards. The nation’s leaders have played a role as they have always had an incentive to shove costs for current promises onto the backs of future generations. It has only now become respectable to do so. The market itself has played a role. Software stalwarts built socially useful products to make their fortune. But what message do the salary packages that their top managers get send across the country when they ignore millions of fellow countrymen who suffer from poverty, malnutrition or hunger ? Austerity has become a thing of the past. The list could go on. But there could be some recommendations. First, raise public consciousness about debt the way the anti-smoking activists did with their campaign. Second create institutions that encourage thrift. Foundations and religious institutions could issue short-term loans to cut into the payday lender’s business. Colleges could reduce credit card advertising on campus. The tax code should tax consumption not income.

But the most important thing is to shift values. The ‘wise’ made it prestigious to embrace certain middle class virtues. Now it’s socially acceptable to undermine those virtues. It is considered normal to play the debt game and imagine that decisions made today will have no consequences in the future.(From Ques 26 to Ques 30)

Ques 26. Which of the following, according to the author, has/have been responsible for the encouragement of culture of debt in the society lately ?
1. The changing lifestyle which makes it impossible for a common man to sustain himself without debts and loans.
2. Breaking down of moral institutions which supported economic prudence.
3. Provision for easy availability of loans to every section of the society regardless of their ability to repay these.
1. Only 1
2. Only 2
3. Both 1 and 3
4. Both 2 and 3


Ques 27. The author of the given passage seems to be definitely …….
1. Suggesting that the agents of debts be banned from the society
2. disappointed with easy-lending trend which has taken the vulnerable sections of the society to abyss
3. in favour of bringing back the financial restrictions once imposed by the society
4. not supportive of campaigns related to anti-tobacco and saving the environment


Ques 28. Which of the following can be the most appropriate title for the given passage ?
1. The debt Culture and government initiatives of curtail it
2. Breaking social barriers-taking the route of financial indulgence
3. Accumulation of debt-a lesson for the future generations
4. Effect of ‘consumerism’ on the world market


Ques 29. Which of the following is true in context of the passage ?
1. Ever since its existence[comma] money has ruined lives owing to lack of awareness among people regarding its unrestricted usage
2. Government has taken many initiatives to control the rampant money lending business to protect vulnerable sections of the society
3. Governments throughout the world have been putting tax on amount of consumption of an individual rather than his/her income
4. Credit card companies are discreet enough to provide credit cards to only those people who guarantee repaying money in the future


Ques 30. What does the author mean by the phrase ‘the transformation has led to a stark financial polarization’ as used in the passage ?
1. The deterioration of social norms has benefited only the wealthy and the knowledgeable while the vulnerable class of people has fallen into a debt trap
2. Since moral inhibitions no longer exist[comma] the debt agents provide loans only to the affluent class thus widening the gap between the rich and the poor
3. The debt culture is being utilized as a measure to draw money from the wealthy class by credit card companies
4. Both A and B
