Before we start a voyage, we usually try to find out more or less definitely where we are bound and how we are supposed to get there. I happen to have the "Concise Oxford dictionary" on my desk and that will do as well as any other. The word I am looking for appears at the bottom of Page 344. edition 1912. "Geography: the science of the earth's surface, form, physical features, natural and political divisions, climate, productions and population." I could not possibly hope to do better, but I still stress some of the aspects of the case at the expenses of others, because I intend to place man in the centre of the stage. This book of mine will not merely discuss the surface of the earth and its physical features, together with its political and natural boundaries. I would rather call it a study of man in search of food and shelter and leisure for himself and for his family and an attempt to his background or has reshaped his physical surroundings in order to be comfortable and well nourished and happy with his limited strength. Among the two million human beings in the world, there is of course the widest possible range for all sorts of experiments of an economic and social and cultural nature. It seems me that those experiments deserve our attention before anything else. For a mountain is after all merely a mountain until it has been seen by human eyes and has been walked on by human feet and until its and slopes and valleys have been occupied and fought over and planted by a dozen generation of hungry settlers. The Atlantic Ocean was just as wide and deep and as wet and salty before the beginning of the 13th century as after, but it took the human touch to make it what it is today--a bridge between the New World and the Old, the highway for the commerce between East and West. For thousands of years the endless Russian plains lay ready to offer their abundant harvest to whoever should take the trouble to sow the first grain. But the aspect of that country today would he a very different one if the hand of a... Which of the following is implied about the Atlantic Ocean? A) It is wide, deep, wet and salty. B) Human touch makes it important. C) There is a bridge over it. D) The highway is busy there.

Ques: You may not have heard of Ashoka, but for the past 27 years,this association, founded by Bill Drayton, has fought poverty and sickness, promoted education and encouraged small businesses. To support these worthy causes, Ashoka provides money for the world's most promising "changemakers" seeking to solve urgent problems and would like to create a world in which every citizen is a changemaker. Drayton believes that anyone can become an agent for change. The important thing is to simply give yourself permission. If you see a problem that you care about, you can help solve it. The young in particular are willing to accept this concept because at heart every child wants to grow into a happy, healthy, contributing adult. In fact It is many young people's ambition to set up programmes or businesses that improve social conditions. An excellent example is an Ashoka project started in 1995 in Dhaka, which handled the rubbish problem facing the city ,helped local farmers and provided an income for poor people there . When Masqsood and Iftekhar began to study the problem of all the uncollected rubbish that lay in Dhaka's streets,Attracting tats and disease , they discovered that 80% of it was natural waste . So they educated the poor people in the city to compost (......)this waste . They knew that they would have a market for the end product because local farmers were struggling with chemical ferntilisers which were expensive and had reduced the natural minerals in the soil over the years . At first , they were refused ,but once they were able to persuade _ that there was money to be made , the project took off. In 2009 sales were $14,000. Drayton is optimistic that in ten years Ashoka will be making really serious ,practical progress in bringing about social change by changing the way we look at economic development. The authors attitude towards Ashoka's program can be described as _ A) changing B) forgiving C) cautious D) Positive
Ans: D
