Q.3 Read the following passage carefully and answer the
questions given below it.
07
Education is not an end, but a means to an end. In other words,
We do not educate children only for the purpose of teaching
them; our purpose is to fit them for life. As soon as we realize
this fact, we will understand that it is very important to choose a
system of education which will really prepare children for life. It
is not enough just to choose a system of education one finds; or
to continue with one's old system of education without
examining it to see whether it is fact suitable or not.
In many modern countries it has for some time been
fashionable to think that, by free education for all- whether rich
or poor, clever or stupid one can solve all the problems of
society and build a perfect nation. But we can already see that
free education for all is not enough, we find in such countries a
far larger number of their degrees, they refuge to do what they
think 'low and, in fact, work with the hand's is thought to
be dirty and shameful in such countries.
But we have only to think as moment to understand that the
work of a completely uneducated farmer is far more important
than that of a professor; we can live without education, but we
die if we have no food. If no one cleaned our streets and took
the rubbish away from our houses, we should get terrible
diseases in our towns.

Narayan Murthy is a role model for millions of Indians. An iconic
figure in the country, he is widely respected and looked up to not
only for his business leadership but also for his ethics and
personal conduct. He represents the face of the new resurgent
India to the world. I am sure this collection of his speeches will
inform, inspire and guide many in the years to come. Narayan
Murthy overcame many obstacles and demonstrated that it is
possible to create a world class, values-driven company in India.
Through his vision and leadership, Murthy sparked a wave of
innovation and entrepreneurship that changed the way we view
ourselves and how the world views India. In his collection of his
speeches, he delivers a timely message about the importance of
values and leadership in business.
