COMPREHENSION PASSAGE-1

Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions that follow: ENGLISH COSMOS 9828402032 Passage  A demonetization that delegitimizes a certain currency, or even certain denominations of it, would extinguish wealth held in that form. What we have seen, however, is a less extreme case. In this one, holders of Rs.500 or Rs.1000 notes can exchange them or pay these into their bank accounts. This does not extinguish wealth as much as it will bring the hoards into the taxman’s radar when their owners draw upon them to make payments. For, as these will be bank transactions there would be a record of them. So, existing black money cannot be used to generate more of the same. To this extent the scheme cannot be faulted.

The Art of Gnawing by Mukesh Pareek

Gnawing.... is an art unadorned Failure gnaws visibly,  Envy gnaws sneakily,  Lust gnaws impatiently,  Success too has learnt gnawing of late It gnaws happily.  This artistic baroque gnawing has made man a sounding vessel Sans virility, sans vitality, sans guts Gnawing is a doctorate in hiding truth.  It is an expert in the veneer of panache I confess......   Gnawing hurts.
