Direction (Q. No- 96 - 100) : In these question

you have two brief passages with six questions

following the passage. Read the passage

carefully and choose the best answer to each

question out of the four alternatives. Teaching family values creates a

foundation which allows your children to make

healthy choices on their own. The values you

espouse become your child's moral guide and

form the cornerstone of his conscience. What

sort of values do you teach? In our family, we

talk about the importance of honesty, integrity,

forgiveness, generosity, caring, conservation,

respect for the earth and other forms of life. One

of the ways, we encourage expression of these

values is through our family's mission statement.

Although such values are expressions of a

mature adult, who has realized her responsibility

to life and her place in it, children possess the

burgeoning integrity to operate from these

values. Even though I use every opportunity to

model or discuss important values, I am tickled

when I witness my children making such life-

affirming choices on their own. Although

making healthy choices is a function of

development of consciousness, I see my children

choosing generosity over selfishness,


forgiveness over blame and integrity over

dishonesty all the time. Of course teaching

family values requires that you become an

exemplary role model. If you're not acting from

the values you espouse, then your children will

learn that hypocrisy is acceptable.

96. As per the passage what is true about

family values in children?

(A) It can be imbibed in the children by

preaching.

(B) These are just development of

conciousness, independent of

teaching.

(C) It is question of making healthy

choices

(D) Family mission statement with

practicing in actual can help

97. Hypocrisy as described in the passage is

similar to

(A) a political leader preaching values

(B) a teacher coming late on a particular

day and asking students to come on

time

(C) a regular defaulter without uniform

asking juniors to be in uniform all the

time

(D) A film actor advertising for a product

which he does not use himself

98. Which of the following is not an example

of the values discussed in the passage?

(A) A husband respecting views of his

wife on life

(B) Parents respecting the individuality

of their child

(C) An income tax officer not taking

huge sums of bribe

(D) A marketing company advertising its

product

99. What does not show life affirming choices

through a developing consciousness?

(A) Only preaching over practising in

actual

(B) Choosing generosity over selfishness

(C) Encouraging expression of family

values

(D) Realizing your responsibility and then

act accordingly

100. What is necessary to teach family values?

(A) Preaching children those ethics

(B) Coming ahead and doing what you

say

(C) Choosing forgiveness over blame

(D) Children accepting hypocrisy while

preaching it
