SECTION(A) 

Reading

(A) Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow :

(1) The Youth is a dynamo, an ocean, an inexhaustible reservoir of energy. But this energy cannot be held in a prison. Its basic nature is to flow, to express itself. The youth energy on the basis of the nature of its expression can be divided into four categories.

(2) The vast majority of the youth today are with the establishment whose formula in life is to learn, earn, burn and enjoy. It means that they learn to operate the modern devices and employ them to earn the maximum amount of wealth to the point of burning the natural resources of the earth, as well as themselves and then enjoy their own funeral ! This category of youth is intelligent, skillful and hardworking but it lacks insight and foresight. They are self-indulgent, any sense of moral code of conduct is alien to their nature and foreign to their way of life. Neither are they able to see in depth nor able to see the purpose of human life. They don’t have the capacity to look beyond their nose to find out the consequences of their approach. They are ends unto themselves and enjoyment is the motto of their life !

(3) The second category of youth in nature and approach is the same but as it is less privileged and less qualified and skilled, it has fewer opportunities for learning and enjoying. Such youth rebel against the establishment for this gross injustice being meted out to them. This opposition takes various forms. When it is well organized and systematic it may take the form of political opposition and even go to the extent of expressing itself in violent ways. The various insurgent and terrorist groups the world over are its examples. When the opposition is not so intense and organized, it remains content with giving verbal expression to its resentment, periodically.

(4) The third section of the youth is sober and thoughtful which objectively observes and studies the phenomenon of development and the trends of the world. They discover that man in his thirst for consumption has become blind and lost the sense of distinguishing between milk and blood ! Today man in his mad rush for development is sucking the blood of the resources in nature, leading up to their destruction and thereby digging his own grave ! But as a ray of hope, this responsible category of youth is looking for alternative model of development based on co-operation between man and man. This development based on mutual love, friendship and harmony is not only continuous prosperity but is a handshake with new life ! To bring about natural revolution from death movement towards life movement is the aim of this group of youth.
