Direction for Question
31-40: Read the given passage carefully and answer the questions given after
the passage:
1 Often, we passionately pursue matters that
in the future appear to be contradictory to our real intention or nature; and
triumph is followed by remorse or regret. There are numerous examples of such a
trend in the annals of history and contemporary life.
2. Alfred Nobel was the son of Immanuel
Nobel, an inventor who experimented extensively with explosives. Alfred too
carried out research and experiments with a large range of chemicals; he found
new methods to blast rocks for the construction of roads and bridges; he was
engaged in the development of technology and different weapons; his life
revolved around rockets and cannons and gun powder. The ingenuity of the
scientist brought him enough wealth to buy the Bofors armament plant in Sweden.
3. Paradoxically, Nobel's life was a busy one
yet he was lonely; and as he grew older, he began suffering from guilt of
having invented the dynamite that was being used for destructive purposes. He set
aside a huge part of his wealth to institute Nobel Prizes. Besides honoring men
and women for their extraordinary achievements in physics, chemistry, medicine
and literature, he wished to honor
People who worked for
the promotion of peace.
4. It's strange that the very man whose name
was closely connected with explosives and inventions that helped in waging wars
willed a large part of his earnings for the people who work for the promotion
of peace and the benefit of mankind. The Nobel Peace Prize is intended f or a
person who has accomplished the best work for fraternity among nations, for
abolition or reduction of war and for promotion of peace.
5. Another example that comes to one's mind
is that of Albert Einstein. In 1939, fearing that the Nazis would win the race
to build the world's first atomic bomb, Einstein urged President Franklin D Roosevelt
to launch an American Programme on nuclear research. The matter was considered
and a project called the Manhattan Project was initiated. The project involved
intense nuclear research the
Construction of the
world's first atomic bomb. All this while, Einstein had the impression that the
bomb would be used to protect the world from the Nazis. But in 1945, when
Hiroshima was bombed to end World War II, Einstein was deeply grieved and he
regretted his endorsement of the need for nuclear research.
6. He also stated that had he known that the
Germans would be unsuccessful in making the atomic bomb, he would have probably
never recommended making one. In 1947, Einstein began working for the cause of
disarmament. But, Einstein's name still continues to be linked with the bomb.
Man's fluctuating thoughts, changing opinions, varying opportunities keep the
mind in a state of flux. Hence, the paradox of life: it's certain that nothing
is certain in life.
31. The Manhattan Project was initiated
______.
(a) In honor of Einstein.
(b) To protect the Nazis.
(c) To bomb Hiroshima.
(d) To carry out nuclear research
32.
