Question

Q.(01) Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow:

Home is the first and the most important school of character. It is here that every human being receives

his moral training, or his worst, for it is here! that he imbibes those principles of conduct which endure

throughout manhood, and cease only with life. It is a common saying that, “Manners make the man”

and there is a second that, “Mind makes the man”, but truer than either is a third that “Home makes the

man”. For the home, training includes not only manners and mind, but also character. It is mainly in the

home that the heart is opened, the habits are formed, the intellect is awakened, and the character is

molded for good or for evil.

From that source be it pure or impure, issue the principles and maxims of society. Law itself is but the

reflection of homes. The finest bits of opinions sown in the minds of children in private life afterward

issue forth to the world and become its public opinion, for nations are grown out of nurseries. Those

who hold the leading-strings of children may even exercise greater power than those who wield the reins

of Government.
