जाति-प्रथा को यदि श्रम-विभाजन मान लिया जाए तो यह स्वाभाविक विभाजन नहीं है क्योंकि यह मनुष्य की रुचि पर आधारित है। कुशल व्यक्ति या सक्षम श्रमिक समाज का निर्माण करने के लिए यह आवश्यक है कि हम व्यक्ति की क्षमता इस सीमा तक विकसित करें, जिससे वह अपने पेशे या कार्य का चुनाव स्वयं कर सके। इस सिद्धांत के विपरीत जाति-प्रथा का दूषित सिद्धांत यह है कि इससे मनुष्य के प्रशिक्षण अथवा उसकी निजी क्षमता का विचार किए बिना, दूसरे ही दृष्टिकोण जैसे माता-पिता के सामाजिक स्तर के अनुसार पहले से ही अर्थात गर्भधारण के समय से ही मनुष्य का पेशा निर्धारित कर दिया जाता है।
जाति-प्रथा पेशे का दोषपूर्ण पूर्वनिर्धारण ही नहीं करती, बल्कि मनुष्य को जीवन-भर के लिए एक पेशे में बाँध भी देती है, भले ही पेशा अनुपयुक्त या अपर्याप्त होने के कारण वह भूखों मर जाए। आधुनिक युग में यह स्थिति प्रायः आती है क्योंकि उद्योग धंधे की प्रक्रिया व तकनीक में निरंतर विकास और कभी-कभी अकस्मात परिवर्तन हो जाता है, जिसके कारण मनुष्य को अपना पेशा बदलने की आवश्यकता पड़ सकती है और यदि प्रतिकूल परिस्थितियों में भी मनुष्य को अपना पेशा बदलने की स्वतंत्रता न हो तो इसके लिए भूखे मरने के अलावा क्या चारा रह जाता है? हिंदू धर्म की जाति प्रथा किसी भी व्यक्ति को ऐसा पेशा चुनने की अनुमति नहीं देती है, जो उसका पैतृक पेशा न हो, भले ही वह उसमें पारंगत है। इस प्रकार पेशा-परिवर्तन की अनुमति न देकर जाति-प्रथा भारत में बेरोजगारी का एक प्रमुख व प्रत्यक्ष कारण बनी हुई है।

Q. भारत में जातिप्रथा बेरोजगारी का एक प्रमुख कारण किस प्रकार बन जाती है?

Direction: Read the passage given below and then answer the questions given below the passage. Some words may be highlighted for your attention.
The big fuss about consensus management is an issue that boils down to a lot of noise about not much. The consensus advocates are great admirers of the Japanese management style. Consensus is what Japan is famous for. Well, I know the Japanese fairly well: They still remember Douglas MacArthur with respect, and they still bow down to their Emperor. In my dealings with them, I found that they talk a lot about consensus, but there's always one guy behind the scenes who ends up making the tough decisions. It doesn't make sense to me to think that Mr. Toyoda or Mr. Morita of Sony sits around in committee meetings and says, "We've got to get everybody in this organization, from the janitor up, to agree with this move". The Japanese believe in their workers' involvement early on in the decision-making process and in feedback from employees. And they probably listen better than we do. But you can bet that when the chips are down, the yen stops at the top guy's desk. So, we're wasting time trying toDirection: Read the passage given below and then answer the questions given below the passage. Some words may be highlighted for your attention.

Business structures are microcosms of other structures. There were no corporations in the fifteenth century. But there were families. There were city governments, provinces, and armies. There was the Church. All of them had, for lack of a better word, a pecking order.
Why? Because that's the only way you can steer clear of anarchy. Otherwise, you'll have somebody come in one morning and tell you: "Yesterday I got tired of painting red convertibles, so today I switched to all baby-blues on my own". You'll never get anything done right that way.
What's to admire about consensus management anyway? By its very nature, it's slow. It can never be daring. There can never be real accountability - or flexibility. About the only plus that I've been able to figure out is that consensus management means consistency of direction and objectives. And so much consistency can become faceless, and that's a problem too. In any event, I don't think it can work in this country. The fun of business for entrepreneurs, big or small, lies in the free enterprise system, not in the greatest agreement by the greatest number.

Direction: Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions that follow.
The morning of June 27th was clear and sunny, with the fresh warmth of a full-summer day; the flowers were blossoming profusely, and the grass was richly green. The people of the village began to gather in the square, between the post office and the bank, around ten o’clock; in some towns, there were so many people that the lottery took two days and had to be started on June 20th, but in this village, where there were only about three hundred people, the whole lottery took less than two hours so that it could begin at ten o’clock in the morning and still be through in time to allow the villagers to get home for noon dinner.
The children assembled first, of course. The school was recently over for the summer, and the feeling of liberty sat uneasily on most of them; they tended to gather together quietly for a while before they broke into boisterous play, and their talk was still of the classroom and the teacher, of books and reprimands. Bobby Martin had already stuffed his pockets full of stones, and the other boys soon followed his example, selecting the smoothest and roundest stones; Bobby and Harry Jones and Dickie Delacroix—the villagers pronounced this name “Dellacroy”—eventually made a great pile of stones in one corner of the square and guarded it against the raids of the other boys. The girls stood aside, talking among themselves, looking over their shoulders at the boys, and the tiny children rolled in the dust or clung to the hands of their older brothers or sisters.
Soon the men began to gather, surveying their own children, speaking of planting and rain, tractors and taxes. They stood together, away from the pile of stones in the corner, and their jokes were quiet, and they smiled rather than laughed. The women, wearing faded house dresses and sweaters, came shortly after their menfolk. They greeted one another and exchanged bits of gossip as they went to join their husbands. Soon the women, standing by their husbands, began to call to their children, and the children came reluctantly, having to be called four or five times. Bobby Martin ducked under his mother’s grasping hand and ran, laughing, back to the pile of stones. His father spoke up sharply, and Bobby came quickly and took his place between his father and his oldest brother.
