Read the following passage carefully and answer questions.
Let us look at what you can do to eliminate a destructive habit, whether it is obesity,
habitually being late, profanity, smoking, having a short temper or alcoholism. The first and
foremost things you must do is to decide that you want to eliminate the habit. That is a
decision you and only you can make. Without this motivation on your part, no person or
procedure will have any significant impact. If someone else ‘talks you into it’ the chances are
strong you will perhaps start but the effort will be short lived. Remember, you generally
don՚t reach someone else՚s goal. Many times, you end up further behind than you would
have been had you not attempt to quit a habit which you were not ready to give up. For
example, weight lost and regained. So, first and most importantly, decide you no longer are
going to be a slave to any destructive habit. Decide you want to have control to your life, that
you want to be free, that you want to do things with your life instead of having things done
to your life. It is tougher, much tougher to quite a bad habit, but fortunately the results are
fun and much more rewarding. Former smokers, alcoholics, and fat-folks unanimously- and
in glowing terms- give us exhaustive details concerning the joy and excitement of shedding
those pounds, giving up the need, and getting of the bottle. The ex-smoker talks about the
exciting taste of the food-the clean smell of the air, clothes, furniture, among others. The talk
about the new found self-respect and satisfaction from whipping a habit that would have
taken from two to ten years of their lives, and a lot of living out of their lives.
Q. 46. The elimination of destructive habits depends upon:
1. External persuasion
2. Social acceptance
3. Impersonal reasons
4. Self-resolve
Q. 47. The passage is about:
1 of 2
1. Unacceptability of destructive habits
2. Benefits of giving up destructive habits
3. Moral values
4. Prevalence of bad habits in the society
Q. 48. A person who decides to leave a bad habit is (a) :
1. Successful person
2. Susceptible to pressure from others
3. Role model for others
4. In control of his own life
Q. 49. Fending off bad habits will earn a person:
(A) Self-respect
(B) Better friends in the society
(C) Satisfaction in life
(D) New opportunities
Choose the correct option:
1. (A) and (C) only
2. (B) and (C) only
3. (C) and (D) only
4. (A) and (D) only
Q. 50. The impact of someone else motivating a person to move away from a bad habit is:
1. Everlasting
2. None
3. Transient
4. Significant
