Question # 4
Educational planning should aim at meeting the educational needs of the entire population of all age groups. While the traditional structure of education as a three layer hierarchy from the primary stage to the university represents the core, we should not overlook the periphery which is equally important. Under modern conditions, workers need to rewind, or renew their professor. The retired and the aged have their needs as well. Educational planning, in their words, should take care of the needs of everyone.
Our structures of education have been built up on the assumption that there is a terminal point to education. This basic defect has become all the more harmful today. A UNESCO report, titled “Learning to be” prepared by Edgar Faure and others in 1973 asserts that the education of children must prepare the future adult for various forms of self-learning. A viable education system of the future should consist of modules with different kinds of functions serving a diversity of constituents. And performance, not the period of study, should be the basis for credentials. The writing is already on the wall.
In view of the fact that the significance of a commitment of lifelong learning and lifetime education is being discussed only in recent years even in educationally advanced countries, the possibility of the idea becoming an integral part of educational thinking seems to be a far cry. For, to move in that direction means much more than some simple rearrangement of the present organization of education. But a good beginning can be made by developing Open University programs for older learners of different categories and introducing extension services in the conventional colleges and schools. Also, these institutions should learn to cooperate with numerous community organizations such as libraries, museums, municipal recreational programs, health services etc.
Q: Which of the following is most opposite in meaning to the phrase "a far cry" as used in the passage?
Question # 5
When the Butto Government put a ban on NAP?
Question # 6
The Romans – for centuries is the masters of war and
polities across Europe, Northern Africa and Asia Minor – have often been criticized
for producing few original thinker outside the realm of positive. This
criticism, while in many ways true, is not without its problems. It was, after
all the conquest of Greece that provided Rome with its greatest influx of
educated subjects. Two of the great disasters intellectual history – the murder
of Archimedes and the burning the Alexandria’s library – both occurred under
Rome’s watch. Nevertheless, a city that was able to conquer so much of the
known world could not have been devoid of the creativity that characterizes so
many other ancient emprises.
Engineering is one endeavor in which the Romans showed
themselves capable. Their aqueducts carried water hundreds of miles along the
tops of vast arcades. Roman roads built for the rapid deployment of troops,
criss-cross Europe and still form the basis of numerous modern highways that
provide quick access prominence to Rome’s economic and political influence.
Many of these major cities lie for beyond Rome’s original
province, and Latin-derived languages are spoken in most Southern European
nations. Again a result of military influence the popularity of Latin and its
off spring is difficult to overestimate. During the centuries of ignorance and
violence that followed Rome’s decline, the Latin language was the glue that
held together the identity of an entire continent. While seldom spoken today,
it is still studied widely, if only so that such master or rhetoric as Cicero
can be read in the original.
It is Cicero and his like who are perhaps the most
overlooked legacy of Rome. While far from being a democracy, Rome did leave
behind useful political tool that serve the American republic today. “Republic”
itself is Latin for “the people’s business,” a notion cherished in democracies
worldwide. Senators owe their name to Rome’s class of elders; Representatives
owe theirs to the Tributes who seized popular prerogatives from the Senatorial
class. The veto was a Roman notion adopted by the historically aware framers of
the Constitution, who often assumed pen names from the lexicon of Latin life.
These accomplishments, as monumental as any highway or coliseum, remain
prominent features of the Western landscape.

Question # 17
Recent
advances in science and technology have made it possible for geneticists to
find out abnormalities in the unborn foetus and take remedial action to rectify
some defects which would otherwise prove to be fatal to the child. Though
genetic engineering is still at tis infancy, scientists can now predict with
greater accuracy, a genetic disorder. It is not yet an exact science since they
are not in a position to predict when exactly a genetic disorder will set in.
While they have not yet been able to change the genetic order of the gene in
germs, they are optimistic and are holding about that in the near future they
might be successful in achieving this feat. They have, however, acquired the
ability to manipulate tissue cells. However, genetic mis-information can sometimes
be damaging for it may adversely affect people psychologically. Genetic
information may lead to a tendency to brand some people as inferiors. Genetic
information can therefore be abused and its application in deciding the sex of
the foetus and its subsequent abortion is now hotly debated on ethical lines.
But on this issue geneticists cannot be squarely blamed though this charge has
often been leveled at them. It is mainly a societal problem. At present genetic
engineering is a costly process of detecting disorders but scientists hope to
reduce the costs when technology becomes more advanced. This why much progress
in this area has been possible in scientifically advanced and rich countries
like the U.S.A., U.K., and Japan. It remains to be seen if in the future this
science will lead to the development of a race of supermen or will be able to
obliterate illness from this world.
Q: Which of the following, according to the author, could be the short-coming of genetic in becoming an exact science?
