Read the following passage and answer the questions-12

1. Many of us grew up hearing the admonition that money is the root of all evil. Money, in and of itself, is neither evil nor
good: it is only what happens with money is in our hands that gives it qualities of being good or evil. Money can be a
tool and it is a necessary tool for simply maintaining our daily lives. We need money to put roof over our heads so that
we are safe, warm and dry. Money provides food to keep us alive so that we can continue to function and clothes so
that we can function in a socially acceptable manner. And it takes money to keep us healthy so that we can continue to
lead productive, meaningful lives.

2.Money can also be a test. Needing to earn money can test our ingenuity, our determination and even our humility
when we find it necessary to generate work for ourselves or we have to take a job that feels like it is several steps back
from where we rightfully could be in our employment. Being financially unable to do and have for ourselves as well as
for sharing with others, can test our attitudes and our willingness to live our lives realistically.

3. Ironically, having an abundance of money can be an even more challenging test of the person we truly are. When we
can afford to do anything we want to do and to have anything we want to have, we are faced the choice of whether we
use our money to solely to benefit ourselves or we use it to make the world a better place for others, as well as for
ourselves.
