  Direction: Read the given passage carefully and answer the questions that follow. Girls have not traditionally been encouraged to go to school in the south Asian nation of Bhutan. So it takes tremendous determination to achieve what Deki, 22, has. She is the first woman in her village to have completed her education and has become a primary school teacher. Deki was the eldest child and the only girl of three children. Cultural traditions and environmental is- sues, such as the need for more helping hands, often means girls like Deki do not complete school. Although her parents were open-minded and supportive, her grandparents stood in the way of her pursuing education. Grandparents are important in Bhutanese culture, which dictates that children must look after both their parents and grandparents.

  "When I was one of the children to be selected to join school, my grandmother called out and requested the committee not to take me because I was the only granddaughter and that I had to look after them," Deki recalls. "After a few minutes of arguing, the person interviewing me asked me, 'Do you want to join school?' and I said, 'Yes'. My grandmother could not say a thing "What motivated Deki to defy traditional barriers was that she did not want to be dependent on someone else to read and write her letters and official documents. What she later discovered, was that through education she was able to fight the pressures of losing her cultural identity. Today Deki teaches in Merak, a remote area in eastern Bhutan. Trie Merak people belong to a unique indigenous group known as the Brokpas andhave a language and dress quite distinct from the rest of Bhutan. Deki has taken up a dual mission: to promote education in her community and to preserve her culture.

  What has made Deki different from other girls of her native place?

  A)
  She hails from a remote village unlike others.

  B)
  She is a primary school teacher.

  C)

  Arrange P, Q, R, S between A & B to give the correct sequence of the story given in question.

  A: A doctor entered the hospital in hurry after being called in for an urgent surgery.

  He answered the call a sap, changed his clothes & went directly to the surgery block.

  P: The doctor smiled & said: "I am sorry, I wasn't in the hospital & I came as fast as I could after receiving the call...... And now,

  I wish you'd calm down so that I can do my work."

  Q: "Calm down? What if your son was in this room right now, would you calm down? If your own son dies now what will you do?" said the father angrily. The doctor smiled again & replied: will say what Job said in the Holy Boo From dust we came & to dust we return, blessed be the name of God.' Doctor?s cannot prolong lives. Go & intercede for your son, we will do our best by God's grace." "Giving advises when we're not concerned is so easy," murmured the father.

  R: He found the boy's father pacing in the hall waiting for the doctor. On seeing him, the dad yelled: "Why did you take all this time to come? Don't you know that my son's life is in danger? Don't you have any sense of responsibility?"

  S: The surgery took some hours after which the doctor went out happy, "Thank goodness your son is saved!" And without waiting for the father's reply he arrived on his way running. "If you have any questions, ask the nurse!" "Why is he so arrogant? He couldn't wait some minutes so that I ask about my son's state/' commented the father when seeing the nurse minutes after the doctor left.

  B: The nurse answered, tears coming down her face, "His son died yesterday in a road accident, he was at the burial when we called him for your son's surgery. And now that he saved your son's life, he left running to finish his son's burial."
