Direction: A new menace is cars-and worse, luxury Sedans and Sport Utility Vehicles(SUVs) which run on highly polluting diesel, and which now account for fully one-half of total car sales, up from under 30 percent a year ago. Although, growth of passenger vehicle sales has slowed down over the past year, the 20 year long trend of furious privatization of urban transport continue unabated. Private vehicles are choking roads, slowing down traffic-in particular public buses-and creating terrible jams and snarl ups in city after city. The introduction and rapid expansion of super expensive metro rail systems, which the poor cannot afford, have failed to slow down the runaway growth of private transport. There is little systematic effort except in a handful of cities to harvest rainwater and none at all at recycling water or curtailing its abuse by the rich through the flushing of wasteful toilets designed a century ago in Europe-even though water scarcity is acute and growing.

Direction: Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions that follow each passage. Your answer to these questions should be based on the passage only.
Every successful man fails at some time. Failure tells you about your weaknesses, shortcomings, lack of preparations, lack of efforts. So if you can manage to learn from it contributes to lasting success. Extract the lesson to learn from failure and try again with redoubled vigor. Facing failure makes one strong, more wise and more resolute, spurs them on to greatest efforts. There is not failure in truth, save from within; unless we are beaten there, We are bound to succeed. Failures not only tell us that we couldn't prepare ourselves up to the level of success and with more hard work. Failures are the stepping stones of success. Every successful man has failed, not once but several times, in their life, but they analyzed the things in real perspective and tried again with more vigor and zeal and achieved success.
