Read the following passage and answer the questions given below. A leading Bangladeshi industrialist in a recent article on ways to strengthen Bangladeshi’s economy has drawn attention to the problems of industrial sickness among other things. One of the main reasons for industrials sickness in our country has been the fact that business and industrial managers have not been able to look beyond the immediate future. They have been too preoccupied with their attempts to report favorable results for the current year-higher profits and larger dividends to the shareholders. The planning horizon has hardly ever exceeded five years. Investments have been inadequate for new plants towards diversification and expansions. Modernization and asset creation has seriously lagged behind. In business, growth is needed for survival. One has to grow if one does not want to be wiped out. This is particularly true today with liberalization of imports and increasing competition. Moreover, growth and higher productivity create employment and higher employment creates larger markets both for industrial and consumer products. For this, there is a need for the creation of a larger and a more stable class, that is, a larger number of people who can afford more and more of goods and services. Even after thirty – five years of independence, our industrialists have not been able to shed the party shopkeeper’s mentality and our highly educated management has tagged along merrily and without concern. | |||

Read the following passage and answer the questions given below: The 50-million–year–old fossil of an ancient whale found in the Himalayan foothills of Pakistan give strong evidence that modern whales are descended from a four –legged, land-dowelling animal. The fossils consist of part of the skull, some teeth, and the well preserved middle ear of an animal that was 6 to 8 feet long, weighed 350 pounds, had a work file snout, and had two foot-long jaws with sharp, triangular teeth. It is the middle ear which suggests that the ancient whale lived on land. Analysis indicated that the animal had eardrums, which do not work in water and which modern whales have only in vestigial form. Furthermore, the right and left ear bones were not isolated from each other. The separation of those bones in marine whales enables them to detect the direction of underwater sounds. | |||
