Insturction for Question Nos. 28 to 31:
Read the following passage carefully and answer
the following question that follow:
When I go into a stranger's personal library, I wander
rounds the bookshelves to learn what sort of person the
stranger is and when he comes in, I feel that I known the
key to his mind and the range of his interests. A house
wihtout books is a characterless house, no matter how
rich its owner is. The rich decoration of the drawing
room and bedroom and the luxruious bathrooms tells us
that the man is wealthy but the books tell you whether
he has got a mind as well. It is not a question of maney
that we do not buy good books or maintain a library of
good books. I repeat that the books are the cheapest and
the best part of the equipment of a few dollars. Nearly
all the best literature in the world is at your command at
two dollars a volume. For 100 dollars you can het a
library of fifty books. Even if you do not read them
yourself, they are a priceless investiment for you chldren.
What delight is there like the revelation of books-the
sudden impact of master-spirit, the sense of a window
flung open to the universe? It is the adventure of the mid,
the joy of which does not pass away, that gives the
adventure of life itself beauty and fragrance
