People moan about poverty as a great evil and it seems to be an accepted belief that
if people had plenty of money, they would be happy, and get more out of life. As a
rule there is more genuine satisfaction in life and more is obtained from life in the
humble cottage of the poor man than in the palace of rich men, who are attended by
servants and governesses at a later stage. At the same time I am glad to think they
do not know what they have missed.
It is because I know how sweet and happy and pure the home of honest poverty is,
how free from perplexing care and social envies and jealousies, how loving and
united the members are in the common interest of supporting the family that I
sympathies with the rich man’s boy and congratulate the poor man’s son. It is for
these reasons that from the ranks of the poor so many strong eminent self–reliant
men have sprung. If you read the list of the “Immortals who were not born to die”
you will find that most of them have been poor.
Answer the following questions based on the reading passage.
1. What is the popular notion about poverty?
2. Where can one get more genuine satisfaction in life?
3. How has the author compared rich with the poor? What is his conclusion?
