1.Read the following paragraph and answer the questions that follow: JAWAHAR LAL NEHRU As a boy, Jawaharlal Nehru once stole one of his father's pens from his study thinking that his father had two pens and he could not possibly use both of them at the same time. That evening when his father returned from court, he lost his cool on finding one of the missing pens. There was uproar in house and after frantic search, the instrument was found in little Jawaharlal's room. His father did not like the way his son had taken his pen without his permission. He scolded the boy so much that he wept bitterly and went rushing to his mother. That day he learned two important lessons - never to do things on the sly and never to disobey his father but more importantly, he understood why his father had scolded him. MAHATAMA GANDHI Once, as a child, Gandhiji stole a bit of gold from his brother's armlet to pay for the latter's debt of twenty - five rupees. It was an innocent thing for a little boy to do to save his brother from disgrace. But by doing so he had lost all peace of mind and he could not decide what amends he should make for the wrong that he had done. At last he decided to tell his father the whole truth. He wrote a letter to him, telling him all about the incident and promising that he would never steal again. He asked his father to punish him as severely as he wished and begged him not to feel pained about it in any way. As the father read that letter, tears began to roll down his cheeks. This left Gandhi so devastated with shame and remorse that he took a silent vow never to do an unrighteous deed again. He strove to be good and truthful ever after.
