Directions (Q. Nos. 1-5): Read the following passage and answer the questions based on it:
The chief condition of happiness, then barring certain physical prerequisites, is the life of reason the specific glory and power of man. Virtue, or rather excellence will depend on clear judgment, self-control, symmetry of desire, artistry of means; it is not the possession of the simple man, nor the gift of
innocent intent, but the achievement of experience in the fully developed man, Yet there is a road to it, a guide to excellence,
which may save many detours and delays: it is the middle way, the golden mean. The qualities of character can be arranged in
triads in each of which can first and the last qualities will be extremes and vices, and the middle quality, a virtue or an excellence. So between cowardice and rashness is courage;
between stinginess and extravagance is liberality; between sloth and greed is ambition; between humility and pride is
modesty; between secrecy and loquacity is honesty; between quarrelsomeness and flattery is friendship; between Hamlet’s
indecisiveness and on Quixote’s impulsiveness is self-control. The right in ethics or conduct is not different from right in
mathematics or engineering; it means correct, fit, what works best to the best results.

Directions (Q. Nos. 43-47): Read the following
passage and answer the questions given below:
The sad demise of Mother Teresa left the world weighed down by an unprecedented grief. The Yugoslav-born nun was the
first person in India after M.K. Gandhi to be given a state funeral despite never holding any public office. What she will be remembered for is what she stood for. She symbolized the ultimate indestructible memorandum of love lying beyond all
contentions.
The saint of the gutters was almost synonymous with the slums and the poverty of Calcutta. She adopted and loved the city as her own. She managed to make shrines out of the grimmest of penurial circumstances. Her saintliness did not have the conventional detachment from society. She was a personification of mercy and charity. Her charity was sublime and mellow, never keen to project godliness. She spurred us on
to be simply humane. She held the human life with all its trauma in a compassionate embrace.
A realization dawned on her early that love and the assurance of being cared for were what people needed most. Here was a
simple message of concern, hope and new life for the unfed, unclothed and the unsheltered. It was her conviction that all is
willed by God and it is our duty to serve Him by serving humanity.
Malcolm Muggeridge, one of Mother Teresa’s early biographers, was so moved by the mission which cuts across all limitations that he told the whole world about her. Thus,
she was catapulted to fame. People responded warmly and her arduous struggle to keep going was considerably eased as
funds poured in. It was also the time that Mother started travelling to places in order to meet people and spread her word of God. Dominique Lapierre went about making a film on her and this hurt her very much.
This great woman could not avoid eyebrows beings raised at her. She disapproved of abortion because it signified killing, of
the foetus and the conscience of the mother. She took children to be the gift of God. She was also accused of almost making a
fetish of human misery and using it as a play to raise funds. It is always simpler to criticize, it is much harder to defend :Mother did it unequivocally in her own fashion.
