Directions for *. Nos. 31 to 45 + These questions are based on the contents of the passages and II given below. Read the passages carefully and answer the questions that follow them on the basis of the contents of the passage in each case.

,assa'e I
War has escaped the battlefield and now can- with modern guidance s&stems on missiles- touch virtuall& ever& sFuare meter of the earth?s surface. War has also lost most of its utilit& in achieving the traditional goals of conflict. Control of territor& carries with it the obligation to provide subBect peoples certain administrative- health- educationand other social servicesG such obligations far outweigh the benefits of control. ,f the ruled population is ethnicall& or raciall& different from the rulers- tensions and chronic unrest often exist which further reduce the benefits and increase the costs of domination. 31. According to the passage- leaders of pre/modernised societ& considered war to be !"# a valid tool of national polic& !$# an important act of aggression !'# economicall& wasteful and sociall& unfeasible !)# restricted in scope to militar& participants

32. Which of the following cannot be cited as a ps&chic advantage of war in the pre/moderni*ed societ&according to the author !"# The creation of a sense of securit& !$# The perception of war as a noble aspect of life !'# The enhancement of national self/esteem !)# The pride that followed as a result of power over others 33. The author most li(el& places the word <civili*ed= in Fuotation mar(s in order to !"# show dissatisfaction at not having found a better word !$# ac(nowledge that the word was borrowed from another source !'# express iron& that war should be a part of civilisation !)# impress upon the reader the traged& of war 34. The author mentions all of the following as possible reasons for going to war in a pre/modernised societ&e#cept !"# possibilit& of material gain !$# total annihilation of the enem& and destruction of enem& territor& !'# potential for increasing the securit& of the nation !)# desire to capture productive farming lands 35. Which of the following best describes the tone of the passage !"# >utraged and indignant !$# Eumorous and wr& !'# Concerned and optimistic !)# Scientific and detached 3". War in the pre/modern societ& was often the subBect of legend because !"# it was a noble aspect of life !$# it was reFuired to be recorded for histor& !'# it was an unavoidable part of existence !)# it was considered an exciting and dramatic phenomenon 3#. According to the passage- war in the modern time is no longer desirable because !"# people have realised the costs of going to war are enormous !$# there is far greater desire for peace and coexistence than for power !'# of the realisation that ruling over other countries is no longer economicall& advantageous !)# technological advances have obviated the need for war 3$. The words @war has escaped the battlefield? have been used in the passage to indicate that !"# technological advances have made the field of war all pervasive !$# the area of war is now not definable !'# war has become uncontrollable !)# battlefields are now extinct 3%. The contents of the passage show that it has been

written !"# ver& recentl& !$# about 1 &ears bac( !'# sometime in the "D20s !)# cannot be determined from the passage .arge populations no longer necessaril& enhance state power and- in the absence of high levels of economic developmentcan impose severe burden on food suppl&- Bobs- and broad range of services expected of modern governments. The noneconomic securit& reasons for the control of territor& have been progressivel& undermined b& the advances of modern technolog&. The benefits of forcing another nation to surrender its wealth are vastl& overweighed b& the benefits of persuading the nation to produce and exchange goods and services. ,n brief- imperialism no longer pa&s. %a(ing war has been one of the most persistent of human activities in the 20 centuries since men and women settled and thereb& became <civili*ed= but the modernisation of the past 20 &ears has fundamentall& changed the role and function of war. ,n pre/moderni*ed societies successful warfare brought significant material rewards- the most obvious of which were the stored wealth of the defeated. 5Fuall& important was human labour H control over people as slaves or levies for the victor?s arm&- and there was the productive capacit& H agricultural lands and mines. Successful warfare also produced ps&chic benefits. The removal or destruction of a threat brought a sense of securit&- and power gained over others created pride and national self/esteem. War was accepted in the pre/modernised societ& as a part of the human condition- a mechanism of change and an unavoidable- even noble- aspect of life. The excitement and drama of war made it a vital part of literature and legends. 4&. +utting people first- according to the passage is !"# easier said than done !$# profitable !'# politicall& though not economicall& defensible !)# good for the compan&?s public image 41. The term @lean and mean organisation?- as used in the passage- means !"# a meaningful organisation !$# an organisation staffed with slim and well meaning people !'# a competitive organisation with no overstaffing !)# an organisation which means business 42. Some countries have abandoned their traditional polic& of permanent emplo&ment because !"# emplo&ees have become a variable cost !$# it is no longer viable in a globall& competitive environment !'# emplo&ees are no longer (een on life/long emplo&ment in the same organisation !)# the& would li(e to ta(e the benefit of outsourcing 43.
