- Read the passage and answer the questions that follow:
Liberty does not
depend upon people. People must raise themselves to it. It is a fruit that must
be earned before it can be enjoyed. That freedom means freedom only from
foreign domination, is an out-worn idea. It is not merely the government that
should be free, but people themselves should be free and no freedom has any
real value for the common man or woman unless it also means freedom from want,
freedom from disease, freedom from ignorance. This is the main task which
confronts us if we are to take our rightful place in the modern world. We
cannot hold the clock back and therefore, it is we who must go forward at a
double pace bending all our resources and all our energies to the great
purpose.
