Read the following passage carefully and answer the question. 

The word 'adventure' embraces a company
of great words, including courage, tenacity,
selflessness and faith, but its most potent
ingredient cannot be expressed in one word.
It is the spirit that urges men to volunteer to
undertake hazardous tasks. For adventure
implies the readiness and desire to embark
on a course of action that entails risk.
A young child may display an instinct for 
adventure by climbing out of his play-pen to
explore the mysteries of the nursery, but this
kind of adventure is hardly laudable because
the child has not yet sufficient reasoning
power to realise the potential risk in such an
action. As we grow older, however, the spirit
of adventure tends to be restrained by caution,
the fire is often smothered by reason, which
gives warning of impending dangers and coldly
counsels safety first. Yet in some men the urge
for adventure may be so strong that it
overwhelms the primary instinct of self
preservation and inspires them to attempt the 
impossible, to reach out for the unattainable.

Read the following passage carefully and mark the correct answer for each question:
     In the world we have made health an end in
itself. We have forgotten that health is really a 
means to enable a person to do his work and do it
well. A lot of modern medicine, and this includes
many patients as well as many physicians, pays
very little attention to health but a lot of
attention to those who imagine that they are ill. Our great 
concern with health is shown by the medical
columns in newspapers, the health articles in
popular magazines and the popularity of the 
television programmes and all those books on medicine. We talk about health all the time. Yet for the most part the only result is more people with imaginary illness.The healthy man should not be wasting time talking about health: he should be using
health for work, the work he does and the work 
that good health makes possible.[passage-footer][/passage-footer]

My most interesting visitor comes at night, when the lights are still burning - a tiny bat who prefers to fly in through the open door, and will use the window only if there is no alternative. His object in entering the house is to snap up the moths that cluster around the lamps .All the bats I have seen fly fairly high, keeping near the ceiling; but this particular bat flies in low, like a dive-bomber, zooming in and out of chair legs and under tables. Once, he passed straight between my legs. Has his radar gone wrong, I wondered, or is he just plain crazy?

[passage-header]Read the passage given below and answer the question that follows:[/passage-header]Censorship is the control of forms of human expression. It is sometimes implemented by the government. The visible motive of censorship is often to stabilize or improve the society that the government has control over. It is most commonly applied to acts that occur in public circumstances, and most formally involves the suppression of ideas. The content of school textbooks is often the issue of debate, since the target audience of school textbooks is young people, and the term 'whitewashing' is the one commonly used to refer to selective removal of critical or damaging evidence or comment. The representation of every society's flaws or misconduct is typically downplayed in favour of a more nationalist or patriotic view.

[passage-header]Read the passage given below and answer the question that follows:[/passage-header]Both plants and animals of many sorts show remarkable changes in form, structure, growth habits, and even mode of reproduction in becoming adapted to the different climatic environments, types of the food supply, or mode of living. This divergence in response to evolution is commonly expressed by altering the form and function of some part(s) of the organism, the original identification of which is clearly discernible. For example, the creeping foot of the snail is seen in related marine pteropods to be modified into a flapping organ useful for swimming and is changed into prehensile arms that bear suctorial disks in squids and other cephalopods. The limbs of various mammals are modified according to several different modes of life - for swift running (cursorial) as in the horse and antelope, for swinging in trees (arboreal) as in the monkeys, for digging (fossorial) as in the moles and gophers, for flying (volant) as in the bats, for swimming (aquatic) as in the seals, whales and dolphins, and for other adaptations. The structures or organs that show the main change in connection with this adaptive divergence is commonly identified readily as homologous in spite of great alterations. Thus, the finger and wrist bones of a bat and whale, for instance, have virtually nothing in common except that they are definitely equivalent elements of the mammalian limb.
