• Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to
indicate the correct answer to each of the questions:
Except for a few unfortunate individuals, no law in this world can go against the fact that for
most of us our family is an essential part of our lives. The moment you enter this cruel world, where
each man is for himself, there are some near and dear ones out there who will do anything to ensure your happiness.
We are nothing more than a vulnerable and fragile object, without someone taking care of us
on our arrival in this world. Despite all the odds, your family will take care of your well-being, and
try their best to provide you with the greatest comforts in the world. No one out there, except your
family must forgive an endless number of mistakes you may make in your life. Apart from teaching
you how to forgive and forget lessons, they are always there for you, when you need them the most.
Family is the only place where children study a lot after school. In school, teachers teach
children about the subjects which will help them to find a good job in future. But at home, parents
teach children about good habits. They are not only the elements which help the children to shape
their personalities but they also prepare them for a sustainable and bright future.
A good family makes a greater society. Father, mother, children have to work in order to build
a strong family. If any one of them fails, the whole family may collapse. The good name of the whole
family can be ruined by a single member of the family. In order to avoid that unhappy scenario, every
family member has to work hard and try their best. As a result, they will set good examples for the
whole society. Families impact very much on society and societies create countries.
