Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below it, certain words have been printed in bold to help you locate them while answering some of the questions.<\/p>\n

Indeed, the western recession is the beginning of good news for India! But to understand that we will have to move away for a while from the topic of western recession \u2026\u2026.. to the Japanese recession! For years, the Japanese style of management has been admiring. However, over the last decade or so, one key question has sprung up \u201cif Japanese management style is as wonderful as described then why has Japan been in a recession for more than a decade?\u201d<\/p>\n

The answer to this question is very simple. Culture plays a very important part in shaping up economies. What succeeds in one culture falls in another. Japanese\u2019s are nonmaterialistic. And however rich they become. Unlike others, they cannot just keep throwing and buying endlessly. And once they have everything they need; there is a saturation point. It was only when companies like Toyota realized that they cannot keep selling cars endlessly to their home market that they went aggressive in the Western markets- and the rest is history. Japanese companies grew bigger by catering to the world markets when their home markets shrunk.<\/p>\n

And the markets have to shrink finally after attaining a level of affluence! And that\u2019s great for the world because the earth needs sustainable development. It does not need monstrous consumers who keep consuming at the cost of the environment and the earth. There should be limits to growth so that consumers are not being converted into materials dustbins for the profit of a handful of corporations. Owing to the materialistic culture elsewhere, it was possible to keep selling newer products to the consumers despite having existing ones that served equally well. They were being lured through advertising and marketing techniques of \u2018dustbunisation<\/strong>\u2019 of the customer; and then finally, once they became ready customers, they were given loans and credits to help them buy more and more. When all the credit worthy people were given loans to a logical limit, they ceased to be a part of the market. Even this would have been understandable if it could work as an eye opener. Instead of taking the \u2018right step<\/strong>\u2019 as Toyota did, they preferred to take a \u2018shortcut\u2019. Now banks went to the non-creditworthy people and gave them loans. The people expectedly defaulted, and the entire system collapsed.<\/p>\n

Now like Toyota western companies will learn to find new markets. They will now lean towards India because of its common man! The billion plus population in the next 25 years will become a consuming middle-class. Finally, the world\u2019s attention will shift to the developing world. Finally, there will be a real surge in income of these people and the next fifty odd years, one can really hope to see an equal world in terms of material plenty, with poverty being almost nonexistent! And this will happen not by selling more cars to Americans and Europeans. It will happen by creating markets in India, China, Latin America and Africa, by giving their people purchasing power and by making products for them.<\/p>\n

The recession has made us realize that it is not because of worse management techniques, but because of limits to growth. And they will realize that it is great for planet earth. After all, how many cars and houses must the rich own before calling it enough? It\u2019s time for them to look at others as well. Many years back, to increase his own profits, Henry Ford had started paying his workers more, so that they could buy his cars. In similar fashion, now the developed world will pay the developing world people so that they can buy their cars and washing machines.<\/p>\n

The recession will kick-start the process of making the entire world more prosperous, and lays the foundation of limits to growth in the west and the foundation of real globalization in the world- of the globalization in the world- of the globalization of prosperity. And one of its first beneficiaries will be India.<\/p>\n

Instructions:\u00a0Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below it. Certain words\/ phrases have been printed in bold to help you locate them while answering some of the questions.<\/p>\n

Governments have traditionally equated economic progress with steel mills and cement factories. While urban centers thrive and city dwellers get rich, hundreds of millions of farmers remain mired in poverty. However, fears of food shortages, a rethinking of antipoverty priorities and the crushing of recession in 2008 are causing a dramatic shift in world economic policy in favour of greater support for agriculture. The last time when the world\u2019s farmers felt such love was in the 1970s. At that time, as food prices spiked, there was real concern that the world was facing a crisis in which the planet was simply unable to produce enough grain and meat for an expanding population. Governments across the developing world and international aid organizations plowed investment into agriculture in the early 1970s, while technological breakthroughs, like high-yield strains of important food crops, boosted production. The result was the Green Revolution and food production exploded. But the Green Revolution became a victim of its own success. Food prices plunged by some 60% by the late 1980s from their peak in the mid-1970s. Policy makers and aid workers turned their attention to the poor\u2019s other pressing needs, such as health care and education. Farming gets starved of resources and investment. By 2004, aid directed at agriculture sank to 3.5% and \u201cAgriculture lost its glitter\u201d. Also, as consumers in high-growth giants such as China and India became wealthier, they began eating more meat, so grain once used for human consumption got diverted to beef up livestock. By early 2008, panicked buying by importing countries and restrictions slapped on grain exports by some big producers helped drive prices up to heights not seen for three decades. Making matters worse, land and resources got reallocated to produce cash crops such as biofuels and the results was that voluminous reserves of grain evaporated. Protests broke out across the emerging world and fierce food riots toppled governments.<\/p>\n

This spurred global leaders into action. This made them aware that food security is one of the fundamental issues in the world that has to be dealt with in order to maintain administrative and political stability. This also spurred the US which traditionally provisioned food aid from American grain surpluses to help needy nations, to move towards investing in farm sectors around the globe to boost productivity. This move helped countries become more productive for themselves and be in a better position to feed their own people. Africa, which missed out on the first Green Revolution due to poor policy and limited resources, also witnessed a \u2018change\u2019 Swayed by the success of East Asia; the primary poverty-fighting method favoured by many policymakers in Africa was to get farmers off their farms and into modern jobs in factories and urban centers. But that strategy proved to be highly insufficient. Income levels in the country side badly trailed those in cities while the FAO estimated that the number of poor going hungry in 2009 reached on all time high at more than one billion.<\/p>\n

In India on the other hand, with only 40% of its farmland irrigated, entire economic boom currently underway is held hostage by the unpredictable monsoon. With much of India\u2019s farming areas suffering from drought this year, the government will have a tough time meeting its economic growth targets. In a report, Goldman Sachs predicted that if this year too receives week rains, it could cause agriculture to contract by 2% this fiscal year, making the government\u2019s 7% GDP growth target look \u201ca bit rich<\/strong>\u201d. Another green revolution is the need of the hour and to make it a reality, the global community still has much backbreaking farm work to do.<\/p>\n

b)\u00a0Only (C)<\/p>\n

c)\u00a0Only (B)<\/p>\n

d)\u00a0(B) and (C)<\/p>\n

c)\u00a0B and C<\/p>\n

d)\u00a0A and B<\/p>\n

c)\u00a0It prompted increased investment and interest in agriculture<\/p>\n

d)\u00a0The GDP as targeted by India was never achieved because of losses in agriculture<\/p>\n

e)\u00a0None of the above<\/p>\n

Question 15:\u00a0<\/b>What prompted leaders throughout the world to take action to boost the agriculture sector in 2008?<\/p>\n

Answers & Solutions:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

1)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(A)<\/strong><\/p>\n

By the word “Dustbunisation” of a customer, the\u00a0author tells us that “There should be limits to growth so that consumers are not being converted into materials dustbins for the profit of a handful of corporations.”<\/p>\n

Hence, answer will be A<\/p>\n

2)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(C)<\/strong><\/p>\n

As the author tells that due to limits to growth, companies will be moving to find new markets and will be heading toward developing countries like India.<\/p>\n

Hence, answer will be A<\/p>\n

3)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(E)<\/strong><\/p>\n

The first two statements follow\u00a0the effect of providing loans and credit\u00a0to the people whether the last statement follows finding the new market that will be developing countries through which poverty may become non-existent.<\/p>\n

Hence answer will be E<\/p>\n

4)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(B)<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Henry Ford had started paying his workers more\u00a0so that they could buy his cars. In similar fashion, now the developed world will pay the developing world people so that they can buy their cars and washing machines.”<\/p>\n

According to the above-mentioned line of the paragraph only statement B follows.<\/p>\n

Hence answer will be Option B.<\/p>\n

5)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(D)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Refer to the following lines<\/p>\n

“The answer to this question is very simple. Culture plays a very important part in shaping up economies. What succeeds in one culture falls in another. Japanese\u2019s are basically non materialistic. And however rich they become. Unlike others, they cannot just keep throwing and buying endlessly. And once they have everything they need; there is a saturation point.”<\/p>\n

This line indicates that Japanese do not purchase endlessly and have a saturation point once they possess everything they need. Option d summarises this point most suitably.<\/p>\n

6)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(E)<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Now banks went to the non-creditworthy people and gave them loans. The people expectedly defaulted, and the entire system collapsed. Now like Toyota western companies will learn to find new markets. They will now lean towards India because of its common man! The billion plus population in the next 25 years will become a consuming middle-class. Finally, the world\u2019s attention will shift to the developing countries. Finally, there will be a real surge in income of these people and the next fifty odd years, one can really hope to see an equal world in terms of material plenty, with poverty being almost nonexistent! And this will happen not by selling more cars to Americans and Europeans. It will happen by creating markets in India, China, Latin America and Africa, by giving their people purchasing power and by making products for them.”<\/p>\n

As mentioned in the above paragraph of the passage that, there is a limit to the growth in a particular market and the author suggests finding\u00a0new markets Otherwise the entire system would have collapsed.<\/p>\n

Hence, “none of these” will be an answer for it.<\/p>\n

7)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(C)<\/strong><\/p>\n

For years, the Japanese style of management has been admiring. However, over the last decade or so, one key question has sprung up \u201cif Japanese management style is as wonderful as described then why has Japan been in a recession for more than a decade?\u201d<\/p>\n

According to above lines of the paragraph, skepticism occurs because of the continuous recession since last decade.<\/p>\n

Hence, answer will be C<\/p>\n

8)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(D)<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Even this would have been understandable if it could work as an eye opener. Instead of taking the \u2018right step\u2019 as Toyota did, they preferred to take a \u2018shortcut\u2019. Now banks went to the non-creditworthy people and gave them loans. The people expectedly defaulted and the entire system collapsed. Now like Toyota western companies will learn to find new markets. They will now lean towards India because of its common man! The billion plus population in the next 25 years will become a consuming middle-class.”<\/p>\n
