English Quiz - Reading Comprehension

Directions (Q1 – Q15): Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below it. Certain words are given in bold to help you locate them while answering some of the questions.
Democracy was invented as a device for reconciling government with liberty. It is clear that government is necessary if anything worthy to be called civilization is to exist, but all history shows that any set of men entrusted with power over another set will abuse their power if they can do so with impunity. Democracy is intended to make men’s tenure of power temporary and dependent upon popular approval. Insofar as it achieves this it prevents the worst abuses of power. The Second Triumvirate in Rome, when they wanted money with a view to fighting Brutus and Cassius, made a list of rich men and declared them public enemies, cut off their heads, and seized their property. This sort of procedure is not possible in America and England at present. We owe the fact that it is not possible not only to democracy, but also to the doctrine of personal liberty. This doctrine, in practice, consists of two parts on the one hand that a man shall not be punished except by due process of law, and on the other hand that there shall be sphere within which a man’s actions are not to be subject to governmental control. This sphere includes free speech, free press and religious freedom. All these doctrines, of course, are held in practice with certain limitations. The British formerly did not adhere to them in their dealings with India. Freedom of the press is not respected in the case of doctrines which are thought dangerously subversive. Free speech would not be held to exonerate public advocacy of assassination of an unpopular politician. But in spite of these limitations the doctrine of personal liberty has been of great value throughout the English-speaking world, as anyone who lives in it will quickly realise when he finds himself in a Police State. Democracy should ensure dignity of the individual. It should also aim at the greatest good of the greatest number. The opposition party should oppose the wrong plans, policies and decisions of the government in power. The government should cater to the genuine needs of the people to make its position solid.
Q1. What is the government necessary?
1) To restrict the authority of a few over the rest
2) Because it is a prerequisite for the survival of civilisation
3) To bring the wayward to book
4) To keep a tab on libertarian tendencies
5) None of these
Q2. What do we expect from democracy?

4) To work against the powerful sections of society
5) None of these
Q3. What did the Britishers not adhere to in their dealings with India?

5) None of these
