Unseen passage 2021
Read the following passage and answer the questions that follows
What is a perfectly free person ? Evidently a person who can do what he likes, when he likes, and where he
likes, or do nothing at all if he prefers it. Well, there is no such person, and there never can be any such person.
Whether we like it or not, we must spend a couple of hours eating and drinking - we must spend nearly as much
in getting about from place to place. For half the day we are slaves to necessities which we cannot shirk, whether
we are monarchs with a thousand slaves or humble labourers with no servants but their wives. And the wives
must undertake the additional heavy slavery or child bearing, if the world is still to be peopled.
Those natural jobs cannot be shirked but they involve other jobs which can. As we must eat, we must first
provide food, as we must sleep, we must have beds and bedding in houses with fireplaces and coals, as we
must walk through the streets, we must have clothes to cover our nakedness. Now, food and houses and clothes
can be produced by human labour. But when they are produced they can be stolen. If you like honey you can
let the bees produce it by their labour, and then steal it from them. If you are too lazy to get about from place to
place on your own legs you can make a slave of a horse. And what you do to a horse or a bee, you can also do
to a man or woman or a child, if you can get the upper hand of them by force or fraud or trickery of any sort, or
even by teaching them that it is their religious duty to sacrifice their freedom to yours.

In geometry, a line segment is a part of a line that is bounded by two distinct end points, and contains every point on the line between its endpoints. A closed line segment includes both endpoints, while an open line segment excludes both endpoints; a half-open line segment includes exactly one of the endpoints
