Q.1 Read the following passage and answers the questions given below-
Many of us grew up hearing the admonition that money is the root
of all evil. Money, in and of itself, is neither evil nor good; it is only
what happens with money once it is in our hands that gives it
qualities of being either good or evil. Money can be a tool. and it is
a necessary tool for simply maintaining our daily lives. We need
money to put roof over our heads so that we are safe, warm and dry
Money provides food to keep us alive so that we can continue to
function and clothes us so that we can function in a socially
acceptable manner. And it takes money to keep us healthy so that
we can continue to lead productive, meaningful lives. Money can
also be a test. Needing to earn money can test our ingenuity, our
determination and even our humility when we find it necessary to
generate work for ourselves or we have to take a job that feels like it
is several steps back from where we rightfully could be in our
employment. Being financially unable to do and have many of the
things we'd like to do and have for ourselves, as well as for sharing
with others, can test our attitudes and our willingness to live our
lives realistically. Ironically, having an abundance of money can be
an even more challenging test of the persons that we truly are. When
we can afford to do anything we want to do and to have anything we
want to have, we are faced with the choice of whether we use our
money solely to benefit ourselves or we use it to make the world a
better place for others, as well as for ourselves. Having significant
wealth can open our eyes to the opportunities available to reach out
o others who need our help, or it can blind us to anything and
everything beyond our own ever-escalating desires for possessions,
prestige and power, thereby testing to the very limit the true nature
of our character as human beings.
