Question

Q1) Read the passage carefully and answer as per the instruction given. (18 marks)

1. Vegetarianism promotes a natural way of life. But despite its implicit message of universal love and non violence, it has not spread as it should have. This may be because it usually is an inward looking habit and is best cultivated in the mind.
2. Leading a vegetarian way of life helps the animal kingdom to coexist with man. Animals supply milk, manure and energy. This has been central to the Indian culture for thousands of years. A vegetarian lifestyle is natural, multi-faceted and helps self-preservation in a healthy way. Food and health are closely related.
3. In India, a vegetarian is usually a lacto-vegetarian. In the western world, vegetarians are sub-divided as 'vegans' (pure vegetarians who do not take any food coming from the animal kingdom), lacto-vegetarians, who consume dairy products and lacto-ova-vegetarians. The last category includes eggs, in addition to dairy products .
4. The western science of food considers food as something to sustain the human body, whereas the Indian science considers food as something which sustains not only the body but also maintains the purity of heart, mind and the soul. Thus an item of food, which is injurious to the mind is not considered to be fit for consumption, even if it is otherwise beneficial to the body or satisfies the taste. The Indian food science doesn't give so much importance to proteins or even to a balanced diet but it gives importance to food that increases the strength of the body and its virility.
5. Vegetarian foods provide an infinite variety of flavours whereas non-vegetarian foods hardly have any taste of their own. In fact, non-vegetarian foods have to be seasoned with ingredients from the vegetable kingdom to make them palatable.
6. In most sports discipline, vegetarians lead in endurance tests. 'You are what you eat' is an old saying and it is a fact that it is the food that makes a man. The food we eat, its quality, quantity, its timing and combination is of utmost importance to a healthy life.
