    Directions For Questions

    Read the following passage and answer the question that follows:

    I start with my greatest guru- my mother. I was born in a very poor family and my father died when I was six. We moved to Mumbai and my mother did menial work to bring me up. Two meals a day was a tough challenge. I studied under street lights and I walked bare foot until, I think, I was twelve. I remember when I passed the seventh standard and I wanted to go into the eighth standard, our poverty was such that even to secure 2121 rupees for secondary school admission became a big challenge. We had to borrow from a lady, who was a housemaid in Chaupati in Mumbai. That was the tough life I had.
     In fact, I remember, my passing the SSC Examination-i.e., 1111th standard. Those days it used to be not 1010th standard or 1212th standard but 1111th standard. I stood 1111th among 1,35,0001,35,000 but I was about to leave higher education and find a job. What helped me was the scholarship by Sir Dorab Tata Trust. It was just 6060 rupees per month and would you believe that 6060 rupees per month from Tatas added so much value to my life that I have been able to stand here today before you to speak to you.
    I am on the Board of Tatas now and it is very interesting that the same Bombay House where I used to go to collect that 6060 rupees per month now one goes and sits there as a Director on the Board of Tata Motors. The turn that these 4040 years has taken is very interesting. It has all been possible because of the chance I got to do higher studies at the insistence of my mother. She gave me values of my life. She was one of the noblest parents I have met in my life.
    So, my greatest guru was my mother. My second guru was Principal Bhave, about whom I made a mention earlier. He taught us Physics. Because it was a poor school, I remember, it had to innovate to convey to the young students the message of Science.
