Part- A:  Seen Comprehension  
Read the passage below and answer questions:

Education is the process by which our mind develops through formal learning at an institution like a school, college, or university. It is mental and intellectual training which provides opportunity of growth and helps to meet challenges and overcome obstacles to progress. Again, the purpose of education is to enlighten the individual and develop his / her capacity to the limit. It is also the business of education to train individuals to make the right choices to go ahead. It ennobles our mind and refines our sensibility. It also broadens our outlook and helps us become aware of our rights and responsibilities.
According to Newman, education “gives a man a clear conscious view of his own opinions and Judgments, a truth in developing them, an eloquence in expressing them and a force in using them.” Therefore, it is often compared to light which removes the darkness of right and wrong. Ex-president Julius Nyerere of Tanzania way back in 1974 said at an international conference that the primary purpose of education was the liberation of man from the restrictions of habit and attitude which limit his humanity. He further said education should promote humanity and universal brotherhood and that it could be used as a catalyst for a change for the better. How right he was!
