Question

Q.1 Read the passage carefully.

Smile what a simple and innocuous word! But how meaningful and powerful it is! Smile means more than it
appears to the viewer. The word ‘smile' reminds me of Mona Lisa's enigmatic smile. A smile on the face can be genial or ironical, pleasing or contemptuous. But here we are concerned with a genial and healthy smile that
unarms even the most hostile. When one is depressed or in pensive mood, faced with a gruelling or painful situation, it is smile only that unloads the tension weighing on the head of a person. It is the enlightened
individual only who will give genuine expression to a genial smile for he has learnt to count the blessings that God has bestowed on him; tons of favours that he has done to him. Innumerable gifts that he has showered on him bounteously.
Each day brings a new hope, a new message and a new life. I admire every sunrise and I try my best to fit in the most during the hours ahead. Do you know why? Because I have learnt to count the blessings bestowed upon me by God and I smile fiery arguments with a friend, heated tempers, a lost match, an unnecessary conflict over trifles - how come that I am alive? I smile. That was the top secret of my life but now it is an open secret. Do you know why I smile? Yes, I count my blessings. All's a symphony and a song, when the smile comes along. When you feel discouraged thinking that all is lost, count your blessings. The frown will be replaced by a pleasing smile.
