पुढील उतारा वाचून त्यावर आधारित 26 ते 30 प्रश्नांची उत्तरे द्या. तुमची स्वत:विषयीची जी धारणा असते, तसेच तुम्ही असता. आपल्याला जे जाणवायला हवे, तेच बरोबर, असे तुम्हांला वाटत असते. 'मला हे शक्य नाही;' असे तुम्हांला वारंवार वाटते का ? तसे तुम्ही स्वत:शी सतत म्हणत असता का ? असे तुम्ही म्हणत असाल किंवा अशा पद्धतीने विचार करीत असाल, तर तुम्ही लवकरच त्याच विचाराने पछाडले जाल. त्यातून तुम्हाला तसेच घडविणारी ती जणू भविष्यवाणीच ठरेल आणि मग आपण अधिकच दुर्बल आणि अविवेकी झालो आहोत, असे तुमच्या लक्षात येईल. यासाठी मनाला चिंतनाची सवय लावा. आपल्यातील विश्वास जागवा; आणि मग आपण एक समर्थ व्यक्ती आहोत, असे तुमच्या अनुभवास येईल. आपल्या स्वत:लाच सकारात्मक, प्रोत्साहक संदेश द्या. आपल्या ध्येयपूर्तीला इतरांच्या प्रतिसादाची, मान्यतेची गरज भासते तेव्हा, काही क्षण आपण असाहाय्य आणि सैरभैर बनतो. यासाठीच स्वत:विषयी चांगली भावना ठेवून काम करा आणि अधिक स्वावलंबी व्हा. अगदी निकड असेल तर तेवढ्यापुरतीच मदत घ्या. सकारात्मक विचारात प्रचंड शक्ती असते. उत्साही, आशावादी वृत्तीची माणसे अधिक काळ जगतात; तसेच चिंतातुर राहाणाऱ्या माणसांपेक्षा लवकर रोगमुक्त होतात, असे संशोधनाने सिद्ध झाले आहे.

Q. No. 76 - 80 : Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below it. Most of what I have learnt in life has been on court and from papa and my coaches, whether it's the way I speak, the way I think, or my attitude to life. Most of you must have picked up these skills within the school walls over the years, and by watching your peers and schoolmates. For me, it's been the academy, the courts and the many games of badminton I have played since I turned nine. So yes, the way I perceive life is also a little different from the average schoolgoer, whose goal includes academic pursuit. The dangers of reaching lofty goals early in life are very real. There is no time to control success and failure. Sometimes they come together and you have to balance it as best as you can. It would have been easy to let it go to my head, but I'm acutely aware of what I have received and the element of my luck in my life; I would never take it for granted. At the same time, I am also conscious of how much hard work I have put in. Parents of young children often come upto Papa and ask him if they should allow their children to pursue the game rather than academics. And Papa always says no. Given a choice, he would have liked me to have finished school, and perhaps even college. I too tried to pursue academics, but after a point it was not possible any more. Papa and I both know that things could just as easily have not worked out. Admittedly, I am not the most talented player in the world or in the country, but I have made up for what I lack in talent with hard work. Commitment, and total focus. I think this combination works, no matter what you do in life. Mummy may tell me to focus on the goal and focus on success, but even if you don't, I think finding something you love to do and giving it your all is a great life mantra to have.
76 $Identify the correct sentence. According to the passage a. The skills in life can be learnt only within the school walls. b. Hard work, commitment and total focus on goal is the mantra of success. c. Parents should allow their children to pursue the game rather than academics.$
