Create a conversation between Ausable and the new agent about indispensable traits that a secret agent must have. [CBSE-QB, 2021| New agent: Monsieur Ausable, you have been famous as a committed employee in our department. I have also heard a lot about your quick wittedness, intelligence and hard work. But when I saw you I was really surprised to see your simple way of living. Please guide me by throwing some light on the traits a secret agent must have. Ausable: Well! Being a secret agent in real life may not match the glamorous and flashy images from movies and television. Spying is often a low-key, tireless and thankless endeavour. However, it is certainly not for those who lack commitment or the joint of heart. One needs to develop a number of practical and risk averse characteristics for spying. As a spy, you need to have keen senses and develop them further through training in aspects like how to collect and evaluate vital information. Also, you must have a natural adaptable and high functioning ability to interact with others. While doing so, it is essential that you keep your composure and be able to work independently. You see appearances are deceptive. You need to have a clever mind and be witty to become a successful secret agent.Ans.

Anne : Dear, loving others simply for who they are is the most important virtue that everyone must possess. When we lose sight of what's most important - loving one unconditionally - We lose sight of our goals and dreams and being happy and healthy.But, I can’t agree with you. Money is motivation. You can pun a smile on the people around you. Without money you can’t do that. If one is not rich then he is at a risk of getting depressed. His social reputation is at risk too. Money is a barrier from being happy to being sad. Money is more important than love. ‘Anne : I can’t believe it. I strongly feel thay money can never bring happiness. One can buy an expensive bed with money but sound slee can’t be bought. Love can do it. Ultimately, to live a fulfilling and happy life, first and foremost, requires that you love all that you are and trust that life loves you in return.536 EXTRA MILE Education & Training X-tra Mile Help Desk X-tra Mile is extending its services to all the educational institutions in India.
