Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below it. Certain words/phrases have been underlineto help you locate them while answering some of the questions.The modern world requires us to repose trust in many anonymous institutions. We strap ourselves in a flying tin can with two hundred other people not because we know the pilot but because we believe that airline travel is safe. Our trust in these institutions depends on two factors : skills and ethics. We expect that the people who run these institutions know what they are doing, that they build and operate machines that work as they are supposed to and that they are looking out for our welfare even though we are strangers.When one of these factors is weak or absent, trust breaks down and we either pay a high price in safety- as in the Bhopal tragedy -or a large ‘welfare premium’ such as the elaborate security measures at airports. Trust-deficient environments work in the favour of the rich and powerful, who can commandpremiumtreatment and afford welfare premiums. Poor people can command neither; which is why air travel is safer than train travel, which in turn is safer than walking by the road side.Every modern society depends on the trust in the skills and ethics of a variety of institutions such as schools and colleges, hospital and markets. If we stopped believing in theexpertiseof our teachers, doctors and engineers, we will stop being a modern society.As the Institution among institutions, it is the duty of the state to ensure that all other institutions meet their ethicalobligations. The Indian state has failed in its regulatory role. Consequently, we cannot trust our schools to turn out good graduates, we cannot ensure that our colleges turn out well trained engineers and we cannot guarantee that our engineers will turn out to be good products.Last year, I was invited to speak at an undergraduate research conference. Most of the participants in this conference were students at the best engineering colleges in the State. One student who was driving me back and forthrecounteda story about the previous year’s final exam. One of his papers had a question from a leading textbook to which the textbook’s answer was wrong. The student was in a dilemma : should he write the (wrong) answer as given in the textbook or should he write the right answer using his own analytical skills. He decided to do the latter and received a zero on that question. Clearly, as the student had suspected, the examiners were looking at the textbook answer while correcting the examination papers instead of verifying its correctness.The behaviour of these examiners is a breakdown of institutional morals, with consequences for the skills acquired by students. I say institutional morals, for the failure of these examiners is not a personal failure. At the same conference I met a whole range of college teachers, all of whom were drafted as examiners at some time or the other. Without exception, they were dedicated individuals who cared about the education and welfare of their students. However, when put in the institutional role of evaluating an anonymous individual, they fail in fulfilling their responsibilities. When some of our best colleges are run in this fashion, is it any wonder that we turn outunskilledengineers and scientists ? If, as we are led to expect, there is a vast increase in education at all levels and the regulatory regime is as weak as it is currently, isn’t it likely that the trust deficit is only going to increase ?We are all aware of the consequences of ignoring corruption at all levels of society. While institutional failures in governance are obvious, I think the real problem lies deeper, in the failure of every day institutions that are quite apart from institutions that impinge on our lives only on rare occasions. It is true that our lives are made more miserable by government officials demanding bribes for all sorts of things, but what about the everyday lying andcheating and breaking of rules with people who are strangers ?Let me give you an example that many of us have experienced. I prefer buying my fruits and vegetables from roadside vendors rather than chain stores. To the vendor, I am probably an ideal customer, since I do not bargain and I do not take hours choosing the best pieces, instead, letting the vendor do the selecting. The market near my house is quite busy; as a result, most vendors are selling their wares to strangers. It takes a while before a particular vendor realises that I am arepeatcustomer. In such a situation trust is crucial. I have a simple rule : if a vendorpalms offa bad piece whose defects are obvious, I never go back to that person again. It is amazing how often that happens.In my opinion, the failure of institutional ethics is as much about these little abuses of trust as anything else. Everyday thievery is like roadside trash; if you let it accumulate the whole neighbourhood stinks.Q. Why, according to the author, is the behaviour of examiners a breakdown of institutional morals ?

Direction: Read the passage given below and then answer the questions given below the passage. Some words may be highlighted for your attention. Read carefully.Since the beginning of this decade, India’s unemployment rate has been juggling from 3.62 percent to 3.41 percent. In 2017, the figure stood at 3.52 percent, roughly above the decade’s mean of 3.51 percent. Now, if you consider India’s population of 1.35 billion, this gives us more than 47 million, or over 4.7 crores, unemployed Indians– who are capable of contributing to the nation’s workforce– always unemployed. But can the situation change for good with the ‘Make in India’ initiative? As a matter of fact, it is an eventual possibility. Before we delve deeper into the subject, let us first understand why ‘Make in India’ is imperative, especially to our nation. India’s top-ten imports account for almost four-fifths (78.2 percent) of its purchases from other countries. Besides mineral fuels, this includes $46.9 billion (10.6 percent) worth of electrical machinery and equipment, $36 billion (8.1 percent) worth of types of machinery such as computers and electronics. Nearly 50 percent of all electronic products sold in India are imported. If India is able to successfully build its manufacturing infrastructure, the nation can save billions of its foreign reserves annually, which is as high as $116.2 billion just out of these commodities, by merely catering to the local demand. But the real fruits of ‘Make in India’ become more apparent if we bring international trade into perspective.For long, India has suffered because of its underdeveloped industrial infrastructure. This is despite the country’s favourable geographical location that has access to nearly all Asiatic countries and a budding market of Africa. The nation, on one hand, holds a central location between Far-Eastern and Middle-Eastern markets, and on the other, has access to European market through the Gulf of Aden, and to Australia via the South East. It has to be also noted that these trade routes are sea-based, that are more economical than land-based freight transportation. If India successfully builds its manufacturing infrastructure matching the global benchmark, the nation has the true potential to emerge as a dominant global supplier. Here, the country is also benefitted by the globally changing demographics.India has one of the youngest populations and will house a billion people aged between 15 and 64 years by 2027, essentially the world’s largest workforce. The country also has the advantage of wage arbitrage with the cost of factory labour less than $2 per hour. Technologically speaking, India’s digitization drive is increasing its overall efficiency and effectiveness in the trade with every day that passes. The nation further benefits by its ability to indigenously build ancillary systems, such as purpose-specific satellites. The nation also has one of the globally leading IT service and support infrastructures and a skilled workforce. These are some of the reasons why multinational organizations are considering the prospect of establishing their manufacturing bases in India.India has recently inaugurated the world’s largest mobile phone factory in association with the South Korean tech giant Samsung in Noida, which is expected to annually manufacture 52 million smartphone units once it achieves full production capacity. The plant will, by itself, generate 15,000 jobs locally and increase Samsung’s India-based production from 10 percent to 50 percent over the next 3 years. Our nation is, moreover, in talks with multiple internationally dominant players, including Apple, while simultaneously acting as a catalyst for its innovation-driven indigenous brands to collectively make it a global manufacturing behemoth, and thereby accomplishing the true vision of ‘Make in India’.What is the meaning of the word delve used in the passage?
