[B][U]Test 2 – English Comprehension [/U][/B]:
Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below it.
Power and possession have been central pursuits of modern civilization for a long time. They blocked out or distorted other features of the Western Renaissance (revival) which promised so much for humanity. What
people have been and are still being taught to prize are money, success, control over the lives of others, and acquisition of more and more objects. Modern social, political and economic systems, whether
capitalists, fascist or communist, reject in their working the basic principle that the free and creative unfoldment of every man, woman and child is the true measure of the worth of any society. Such
unfoldment requires understanding and imagination, integrity and compassion, co-operation among people, and harmony between the human species and the rest of nature. Acquisitiveness and the pursuit of power
have made the modern man an aggressor against everything that is non-human, an exploiter and oppressor of those who are poor, meek and unorganized, a pathological type which hates and distrusts the world and suffers from both acute loneliness and false pride.
The need for a new renaissance is deeply felt by those sensitive and conscientious men and women who not only perceive the dimensions of the crisis of our age but who also realize that only through conscious and co-operative human effort may this crisis be met and probably even overcome
1. According to the passage, why has modern man turned out to be an enemy of everything that is nonhuman?
(1) He has been dominated by drives of acquisitiveness and power
(2) He hates and distrusts other human beings
(3) He consciously practices spirit of cooperation
(4) Non-humans have refused cooperation to human beings
(5) None of these
2. Which of the following is one of the requirements to bring out the best in man?
(1) Money (2) Success (3) Understanding (4) Power (5) Acquisitiveness
3. The real attainment of any society can be adjudged by which of the following?
(1) The degree of freedom for pursuing more and more power
(2) The encouragement for acquisitive tendencies
(3) Strict adherence to authoritarian structure
(4) Total victimization of conscientious persons
(5) None of these
