Unseen passage day→2

If we want success in any undertaking, we must work steadily to the end. No undertaking is attained without difficulties. Sheridan, a famous orator of England, attempted to make a speech in the Parliament but failed and sat down in great discomfiture. His friend told him that he could not be an orator. He replied, "It is in me and shall come out," and he afterwards succeeded in becoming a persuasive orator of his day. The late Earl of Beaconsfield also broke down in the midst of his maiden speech in the House of Commons. He sat down in the midst of hisses but he told the audience with some emotion. "I have several times begun many things and often succeeded at last. I shall sit down now, but the time will come, when you will hear me." These words
afterwards proved to be prophetic. We should not,
therefore, be discouraged by disappointment at the
beginning of life.

(b) What did Sheridan do when he failed to make a

हमें पालतू और मूक पशुओं की तरह किसी के पीछे नहीं चलना चाहिए। जीवन के संघर्षों एवं आने वाले खतरों का निर्भीकता एवं साहस के साथ सामना करना चाहिए। भविष्य चाहे कितना भी उज्ज्वल एवं लुभावना क्यों न हो। हमें उस पर भरोसा नहीं करना चाहिए। हमें बीती हुई बातों को बार-बार सोचना नहीं चाहिए। बस अपने कर्तव्यों के प्रति सचेत रहना चाहिए।

Ans.: We should not follow anybody just like tame and
dumb animals. One should face the struggles of life and
impending dangers with boldness and courage even if
the future is much bright and enticing. We should not
trust on it. We should not think over past events or
things. We should only be alert towards our duties.

भूख और इंसान का रिश्ता जन्म से होता है। जन्म के साथ ही मनुष्य अपनी भूख भी साथ लेकर आता है। भूख किसी भी व्यक्ति के जीवित रहने का प्रमाण है। लेकिन यह भूख हवस का रूप लेने लगे, तो चिन्ता का कारण बनने लगती है। किसी को बेइंतहा लालच, दूसरे की मुसीबत का सबब बन जाती है। भूख और भुखमरी असमानता की सूचक हैं।

Passage 3
The real ornament of woman is her character, her purity. Metal and stones can never be real ornaments.The names of women like Sita and Damayanti have become sacred to us for their unsullied virtue, never for
their jewellery, if they wore any. My asking from you, your jewellery has also a wider significance. Several sisters have told me that they feel all the better for getting rid of their jewels. I have called this an act of merit in more ways than one. No man or woman is entitled to the possession of wealth, unless he or she has given a fair share of it to the poor and the helpless. It is a social and religious obligation and has been called a sacrifice by the Bhagavad Gita. He who does not offer this sacrifice has been called a thief. The Gita has
enumerated many forms of sacrifice, but what greater
sacrifice can there be than to serve the poor and the needy? For us, today, there can be no sacrifice higher than to forget the distinctions of high and low and to realize the equality of all men. I also wish to bring home
to the women of India that real ornamentation lies not in loading the body with metal and stone, but in purifying the heart and developing the beauty of soul.

(a) What is the real ornament of 'woman'?
(b) What thing has been called a sacrifice by the Bhagavad Gita?
(c) What is considered to be a greater sacrifice?
(d) Where does the real ornamentation lie?
(e) (i) Which word, in the passage, means 'spotless'?
(ii) Which word, in the passage, is the opposite of 'insignificance'?
(iii) What does the phrase 'getting rid of' mean in the passage?
