Pride and envy have done great damage to mankind, and in a variety of ways. Pride generates a sense to superiority, whether of sex, colour, race or religion. In no case does this pride have any rational basis. For example, except for having tougher muscles, the male does not have any inherent superiority over the female. Fantastic reasons were given in support of the view that the male is superior; that the male foetus acquires a soul in six weeks while the female does so only after six months. At the conscious level, most forms of superiority have now greatly declined. However, even in America, the sense of equality still works mostly only upwards, every one regards those above him to be his equals, but thinks that he is superior to those below him. In Russia a new privileged class has appeared the proletariat. Pride of creed makes one look upon all who profess a different faith as sinners, who are surely doomed for hell. Envy does much harm in personal life, but even in public and international life envy and selfishness are responsible for breeding an entirely false conception of self-interest. Russel explains this with the help of the story of an imaginary baker and as butcher who are under the misconception that monopoly of trade world make them immensely rich. Every nation today seems to pursuing an economic policy which is based on misconception that her economic interest is opposed to that of every other nation. This is the essence of the pernicious idea of economic nationalism.

Q-6. Make a précis of the following passage and assign a suitable title: (25)

The psychology of emotion and instincts in as yet in its infancy, a beginning has been made by psycho-analysis but only a beginning. What we may accept psycho-analysis is the fact that people will, in action pursue various ends which they do not consciously desire, and will have an attendant set of quite irrational beliefs which enable them to pursue these ends without knowing that they are doing so. But orthodox psycho-analysis has unduly simplified our unconscious purposes which are numerous and different from one person to another. It is to be hoped that social and political phenomenon will soon come to be understood from this point of view, and will thus throw light on average human nature.

Moral self control and external prohibition of harmful acts are not adequate methods of dealing with our anarchic instincts. The reason they are inadequate is that these instincts are capable to as many disguises as the Devil in medieval legend, and some of these disguises deceive even the elect. The only adequate method is to discover what are the needs of our instinctive nature, and then to search for that least harmful way of satisfying them. Since spontaneity is what is most thwarted by machines. The only thing that can be provided is opportunity. The use made of opportunity must be left to the initiative of the individual. No doubt understanding of human nature must be basis of any real improvement in human life.

Good Luck

Q-7. Make a précis of the following passage and assign a suitable title: (20)

The noblest of souls can find full satisfaction for his aspirations in the sustained effort to do his duty in the work that lies at hand to the utmost that is in him. It is the function of education in the highest sense to teach him that there are latent in him possibilities beyond what he has dreamed of and to develop capacities of which without contact with the highest learning, he had never become aware. And so the university becomes, at its best, the place where the higher ends of life are made possible of attainment, where the finite and the infinite are found to come together. The wider our out look, the more we have assimilated the spirit of the teachers of other nations and other ages than our own, the more will be the possibilities of action open to us, and the more real may become the choice of that high aim of man, the dedicated life. We learn so to avoid the unconscious devotion of our energies to that for which we are not fit, and peril of falling unconsciously into actual existence that best that lies latent in us. The wider out look, the deeper sympathy, the keener insight, which this kind of culture gives, do not paralyze a man. They may teach him his own limits and the more he has learnt his lesson the more will he realize these limits. But they do not dishearten him, for he has become familiar with the truth that the every essence of consciousness and of life is to be aware of limits and to strive to overcome them.

ENGLISH VOCABULARY FROM FPCS LECTURER PAST PAPER

Q-7. make a precis of the following passage and assign to it a suitable title.

Yousuf's goodness of heart made him a king among his fellow - prisoners. if any were ill , he tended them; if there was any thing to their mind he sympathised with them and consoled them. they had unbound faith in him, and they gladly took his teachin and profited by it. two of them took their dreams to him and he interpreted them correctly. one of them was resorted to the king's favour. when the king in his turn dreamed a dream, this man remembered yusus and obtain the interpretation of the kings dream through him. yusuf was released from prison, raised to high honour, and given full authority in the land. the old wazir, zulaikha's husband, was dead and yusuf was charged with the arrangements of meeting the great femine that was prognosticated. this part of the story is touched upon but lightly by the poet, as his theme is the love of zulaikha. she a widow, bereft of youth, honour, beauty,resources, health, even eye sight, yet cherishes memory of yusuf and waters it with her tears. he is now far above her in worldly station, as he always was above her in spritual worth. her humbled pride opens her spritual eyes. she cries to him in her agony, and he listens. he knows true form the false, and he is just. the woman, who he had repelled when she was in the bloom of health, youth and beauty, when she was rich, proud and high in rank - now that she is meek, lowly and sincere, finds favour in his sight. at his prayer his health, youth, and beauty are restored, and they are married in pure and true love. even so, their love was not perfect until they united their hearts in pure worship to God. the core of allegory is in its perfect definition of love -- the true and eternal as distinguished from the false and the emphemeral. life is subject to many changes and so is what is ordinarily called LOVE among men. false love is only a toy for self-indulgence. self, not the others, is the governing motive. just as, in human affairs, there is true and false love, so in our inne and higher life, there is a divine love that transcends all human love. this is the contrast between Ishq-e-Haqiqi and Ishq-e-Majazi.

ISLAMIAT MCQS FOR FPCS TEST

Q-7. Write a précis of the following passage and assign a suitable title: (20)

The psychological, even the intellectual, benefits of marriage seem to me to be enormous. If a man has lived for some years in the closest intimacy with a woman, he learns to look at life from her point of view as well as his own. A man who cannot do this is like a man blind in one eye. He doesn’t appreciate the solidity and depth of the world before him. The ideas I am putting before you hare are largely my wife’s or at any rate, family ideas, rather than unmarried man; and few women seem to me to be psychologically complete till they have become mothers. During the Middle Ages Europe was far too much influenced by celibate men. Today much too big a part in public life is played by celibate women, and too little by mothers. I find few ideas more genuinely disgusting than that held by many education authorities that a woman ceases to be suitable as a teacher when she becomes a mother, because I have so high as opinion of marriage at its best, I think that it should be possible to end it if it fails for any of a number of reasons, instead of, as now, for one only. This is called “undermining” the sanctity of marriage”.
