Question

5.Read the following passage carefully and choose the correct option from the questions given below:

1. The art of living is learnt easily by those who are positive and optimistic. From humble and simple people to great leaders in history, science or literature, we can learn a lot about the art of living , by having a peep into their lives. The daily routines of these great men not only reveal their different may be unique lifestyles but also help us learn certain habits and practices they followed. Here are some; read, enjoy and follow their footsteps as it suits you.
2. A private workplace always helps. Jane Austen asked that a certain squeaky hinge should never be oiled so that she always had a warning whenever someone was approaching the room where she wrote. William Faulkner lacking a lock on his study door or detached the door knob and brought it into the room with him. Mark Twain's family knew better than to breach his study door-they would blow horn to draw him out.
3. A daily walk has always been a source of inspiration. For many artists a regular stroll was essentially a creative inspiration. Charles Dickens famously took three hours works every afternoon , and what he observed on them fed directly into his writing. Eric Statue did the same on his long hikes from Paris to the working-class suburb where he lived stopping under the street lamps to jot down ideas that came on his journey; it's rumoured that windows lamps were turned off during the war years, his music declined too.
4. The routine of these thinkers are difficult. Perhaps it is because they are so unattainable. The very idea that you can organise your time as you like is out of reach for most of us, were so I will close with a toast to all those who worked with difficulties. Like Francine Prose, who began writing when the school bus picked up her children and stopped when it brought them back; for TS Eliot, found it much easier to write once he had a day job in a bank that he had as a starving poet and even F Scott Fitzgerald whose early books were written in a strict schedule as a young military officer.
