Democratic societies from the earliest times have expected their government to protect the weak against the strong. No ‘era of good feeling’ can justify discharging the police force or giving up the idea of public control over concentrated private wealth. On the other hand, it is obvious that a sprirt of self-denial and moderation on the part of those who hold economic power will greatly soften the demand for absolute equality. Men are more interested in freedom and security than in an equal distribution of wealth. The extent to which Government must interfere with business, therefore, is not exactly measured by the extent to which economic power is concentrated into a few hands. The required degree of government inference depends mainly on whether economic powers are oppressively used, and on the necessity of keeping economic factors in a tolerable state of balance.
However, with necessity of meeting all these dangers and threats to liberty, the powers of government are unavoidably increased, regardless of the political party in power. The growth of government is a necessary result of the growth of technology and of the problems that go with the use of machines and science. Since the government must take on more powers to meet the problems of the nations, there is no way to preserve freedom except by making democracy more powerful.

The public distribution system, which provides food at low prices, is a subject of vital concern. There is a growing realization that though Pakistan has enough food to feed its masses three square meals a day, the monster of starvation and food insecurity continues to haunt the poor in our country.
Increasing the purchasing power of the poor through providing productive employment, leading to rising income, and thus good standard of living is the ultimate objective of public policy. However, till then, there is a need to provide assured supply of food through a restructured, more efficient and decentralized public distribution system (PDS).
Although the PDS is extensive – it is one of the largest such systems in the world – it has yet to reach the rural poor and the far off places. It remains an urban phenomenon, with the majority of the rural poor still out of its reach due to lack of economic and physical access. The poorest in the cities and the migrants are left out, for they generally don not possess ration cards. The allocation of PDS supplies in big cities is large than in rural areas. In view of such deficiencies in the system, the PDS urgently needs to be streamlined. In addition, considering the large food grains production combined with food subsidy on one hand and the continuing slow starvation and dismal poverty of the rural population on the other, there is a strong case for making PDS target group oriented.
The growing salaried class is provided job security, regular income, and percent insulation against inflation. These gains of development have not percolated down to the vast majority of our working population. If one compares only dearness allowance to the employees in public and private sector and looks at its growth in the past few years, the rising food subsidy is insignificant to the point of inequity. The food subsidy is a kind of D.A. to the poor, the self-employed and those in the unorganized sector of the economy. However, what is most unfortunate is that out of the large budget of the so-called food subsidy, the major part of it is administrative cost and wastages. A small portion of the above budget goes to real consumer and an even lesser portion to the poor who are in real need.
It is true that subsidies should not become a permanent feature, except for the destitute, disabled, widows and the old. It is also true that subsides often create a psychology of dependence and hence are habit-forming and killing the general initiative of the people. By making PDS target group oriented, not only the poorest and neediest would be reached without additional cost, but it will actually cut overall costs incurred on large cities and for better off localities. When the food and food subsidy are limited, the rural and urban poor should have the priority in the PDS supplies. The PDS should be closely linked with programs of employment generation and nutrition improvement.

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 word "integral" as used in the passage?
A. Essential
B. Independent
C. Major
D. Minor

Through the U.S. prides itself on behing a leader in the
world community, a recent report shows that it lags far behind other industrialized
countries in meeting the needs of its youngest and most vulnerable citizens.
The U.S. has a higher infant mortality rate, a higher proportion of low birth
weight babies, a smaller proportion of babies immunized against childhood
diseases and a much higher rate adolescent pregnancies. These findings,
described as a quiet crisis requiring immediate and far-reaching action,
appeared in a report prepared by a task force of educators, doctors,
politicians and business people. According to the report, a fourth of the
nation’s 12 infants and toddlers live in poverty. As many as half confront risk
factors that could harm their ability to develop intellectually, physically and
socially. Child immunizations are too low, more children are born into poverty,
more are in substandard care while their parents work and more are being raised
by single parents When taken together, these and other risk factor can lead to
educational and health problems that are much harder and more costly to
reverse.
The crisis beings in the womb with unplanned parenthood.
Women with unplanned pregnancies are less likely to seek pre-natal care. In the
U.S. 80% of teenage pregnancies and 56% of all pregnancies are unplanned. The
problems continue after birth where unplanned pregnancies and unstable
partnerships often go hand in hand. Since 1950, the number of single parent
families had nearly tripled. More than 25 percent of all births today are to unmarried
mothers. As the number of single parent families grows and more women enter the
work force, infants and toddlers are increasingly in the care of people other
than their parents.
Most disturbingly, recent statistics show that American
parents are increasingly neglecting or abusing their children. In only four
years from 1987-1991, the number of children in foster care increased by over
50 percent. Babies under the age of one are the fastest growing category of
children entering foster care. The crisis affects children under the age of
three most severely the report says. Yet, it is this period-from infancy
through preschool years- that sets the stage for a child’s future.
Decide which of the following factors is/are responsible for the physical, intellectual and social under-development of infants in the U.S?
A.Illiteracy of parents
B. Lack of parental care
C. Poverty
A. Only A
B. Only B
C. Only C
D. Both A & C

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.
