Part A

Section B (20 Marks)

1. Read the given unseen passage and answer the following:

1. Trust is rare today. Building trust is even harder because of the nature of the world as we experience it. The

changes that characterize relationships, can soon wear down our normal instincts. Often, we have to depend

on inner intuition to guide us through this maze.

2. Trust has nothing in common with naivety. Unless we allow doubt to play a role in our lives, we cannot

hope to build lasting trust. In this respect, we are weak and vulnerable. We become strong slowly. God

removes the props we have lived with, over the years. We cannot stand all alone. We must work towards

building a community of trust.

3. Perforce, today space between us has shrunk due to quick movement -- we travel vast distances and time

zones in just a day or two. There is no time to absorb the lessons we learn from culture shocks and adapt to

the differences that bring variety to the world. Earlier, families acted as natural environments for building

trust. With people walking in and out of relationships, the whole edifice of families and society has

undergone a transformation. Families, with their give and take, were able to provide stability to young and

growing children. Now, torn between parents and custody battles, the young often are victims of such

conflict.

4. The young, as well as adults, are exposed to all kinds of people, many of whom cannot be taken at their

word. Inquisitiveness and an unwelcome preoccupation with what others are doing are some of the social

side effects. Doubts help us to navigate through these environments before we arrive at some kind of

permanence in our relationship with others.

5. We cannot be intimate with all; we can be so only with a limited few. That is why lasting friendships have

become a casualty. When we build trust, it is after we have allowed the initial doubts to settle down. We

could continue to doubt unsavory people, but side-by-side, need to start building communities of trust.

6. Here, we have to factor out those whose motivations and behaviour is suspect. The world we confront

every day is no longer simple. It is a world whose very existence is threatened by violence, mayhem, cruelty

and distrust. If we take things at their face value we will end up impoverished. What is permanent will

remain. Above all, the need to build a community of trust based on positive values ought to be of paramount

importance.
