Read the following passage and answer the questions.

The ability to speak in words and to enunciate clearly is a blessing which the creator has bestowed on man alone. No other living creature can speak. This is a blessing which should be highly prized and respected. The English language as well as the organised languages of other people. and nations, is replete with words which cany every conceivable shade of meaning. It is possible to choose the right words; word which will attract and not repel. There is no excuse for the careless use of words which will offend the sensibilities of others. The appropriate use of words is regarded as a sign of education and culture. The person who is able to use the proper words at the proper time has developed a very important factor in the achievement of a pleasing personality. While the inappropriate use of words can repel, the appropriate use of words, together with a pleasing and motivating tone for voice and pleasant facial expression, can go a long way toward gaining for one the attention, respect, confidence and liking of other persons.

Read the following passage and answer the questions.

When I worked in a second-hand book shop-so easily pictured, if you don't work in one, as a kind of paradise, where charming old gentlemen browse eternally among calf-bound folios - the thing that chiefly struck me was the rarity of really bookish people. Our shop had exceptionally interesting stock, yet I doubt whether ten percent of our customers knew a good book from a bad one. First edition snobs were much commoner than lovers of literature, but oriental students haggling over cheap text books were commoner still, and vague-minded women looking for birthday presents for their nephews were commonest of all.

Many of the people who came to us were of the kind who would be nuisance anywhere but have special opportunities in a bookshop. For example, the dear old lady who 'wants a book for an invalid (a very common demand, that), and the other dear old lady who read such a nice book in 1897 and wonders whether you can find her a copy. Unfortunately she does not remember the title or the author's name or what the book was about, but she does remember that it had a red cover. But, apati from these there are two well-known types of pest by whom every second hand bookshop is haunted. One is be decayed person smelling of old bread crusts who comes every day, sometimes several times a day, and tries to sell you worthless books. The other is the person who orders large quantities of books for which he has not the smallest intention of paying. In our shop we sold nothing on credit, but we would put books aside, or order them if necessary, for people who arrranged to fetch them away later. Scarcely half the people who ordered books from us ever came back.

What does the author mean by "First edition snobs"?

"Unfortunately she does not remember the title or the author's name or what the book was
about, but she does remember that it land a red cover. "What does it tell about the lady?

Read the following passage and answer the questions.

Since we now know what a terrible evil war is, we must spare no effort to prevent its recurrence. To this reason must also be added an ethical one: In this, course of the last two wars, we have been guilty of acts of inhumanity which make one shudder, and in any future war we would certainly be guilty of even worse. This must not happen!

Let us dare to race the Situation. Man has become superman. He is a superman because he not only has at his disposal innate physical forces, but also commands, thanks to scientific and technological advances, the latent forces of nature which he can now put to his own use. To kill at a distance, man used to rely solely on his own physical strength; he used to bend the bow and to release the arrow. The superman has progressed to the stage where he can use the energy released by the combustion of a given combination of diemical product$. This enables him to employ a much more effective projectile and to propel it over far greater distances.

However, the superman suffers from a fatal flaw. He has failed to rise to the level of superhuman reason which should match that of his superhuman strength. He requires such reason to put this vast power to solely 1easonable and useful ends and not to destructive and murderous ones. Because he lacks it, the conquests of science and technology become a mortal danger to him rather than a blessing.

"This must not happen" what does this refer to in the passage?

What is the 'fatal flaw' of the super man

What does the author think of war in the modern context?
