When the miser found that his gold was gone, he tore his hair and cried aloud in his despair. A neighbour came running to see what was the matter, and the grief-stricken miser told him what had happened. Then the neighbour said, "Pray stop your weeping. Go and find a stone. Place the stone in the hole and imagine that it is your lump of gold. The stone will serve your purpose, for you never meant to use the gold anyway."

Question 6 :
<div><div><span>Read the passage and answer the questions that follow.</span></div></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div><span>It is said that ideas are explosive and dangerous. To allow them unfettered freedom is, in fact, to invite disorder. But, to this position, there are at least two final answers. It is impossible to draw a line round dangerous ideas, and any attempt at their definition involves monstrous folly. If views, moreover, which imply disorder are able to disturb the foundations of the State; there is something supremely wrong with the governance of the State. For disorder is not a habit of mankind. We cling so eagerly to our accustomed ways that, as even Burke insisted; popular violence is always the outcome of a deep popular sense of wrong. </span><br/></div><div><br/></div>What is the central point that the passage emphasizes?

Question 9 :
A passage is given below followed by several inference . You have to examine each interference separately in the context of the passage and decide upon its degree of truth or falsity , Mark your answer as:<br><br>Investors today have more investment options than were available just a few years ago. Choice in any decision-making is good in so far it provides variety, differentiation and bench-marking. It could also, however, at times lead to clutter and "noise" if the options are mostly similar and undifferentiated. To make sense of this choice conundrum, it is imperative for an investor to define objective - both returns and digestible risk and then identify the possible options. The investor also needs to select the mix and regularly monitor that objectives and investment outcomes remain aligned. Sounds simple, but can present the most confounding situation which multiplies with the quantum of wealth. <br>Present day investors need to use their judgement more critically before investing.

Then we are faced with a choice between using technology to provide and fulfill needs which have hitherto been regarded as unnecessary or, on the other hand, using technology to reduce the number of hours of work which a man must do in order to earn a given standard of living. In other words, we either raise our standard of living above that necessary for comfort and happiness or we leave it at this level and work shorter hours.

Most of these people one doesn't know and some of them one doesn't like. Well, what is one to do? There are two solutions. One of them is the Nazi solution.
