One of the greatest theoretical physicists of all time, Einstein is best known
for the Theory of Relativity although the Nobel Prize was awarded for his work on
the interpretation of Photoelectric effect. He revealed that it took him just five
weeks to write his paper on Relativity in between his work as a clerk. On being
asked to explain the Theory of Relativity, Einstein explained in his inimitable
style, ‘‘When a man sits with a pretty girl for an hour it seems like a minute. But
let him sit on a hot stove for a minute, it will seems like more than an hour. That
is Relativity.’’ He also remarked, ‘‘Since mathematicians have invaded the Theory
of Relativity I do not understand it myself anymore!’’

15. Read the following passage and answer the questions set on it :
Mr. Biswas was forty-six, and had four children. He had no money. His
wife Shama had no money. On the house in Sikkim Street Mr. Biswas owed
and had been owing for four years, three thousand dollars. The interest on
this, at eight percent, came to twenty dollars a month; the ground rent was
ten dollars. Two children were at school. The two older children, on whom Mr.
Biswas might have depended, were both abroad on scholarships.
“Potatoes”, she said. “We can start selling potatoes. The price around here
is eight cents a pound. If we buy at five and sell at seven .......”
“Trust the Tulsi bad blood”, Mr. Biswas said. “I know that the pack of
you Tulsis are financial geniuses. But have a good look around and count the
number of people selling potatoes. Better to sell the old car.”
No more was heard of the potatoes and Mr. Biswas never threatened
again to sell the car. He didn’t now care to do anything against his wife’s
wishes. He had grown to accept her judgement and to respect her optimism.
He trusted her. Since they had moved to the house Shama had learned a new
loyalty to him and to their children; away from her mother and sisters, she was
able to express this without shame, and to Mr. Biswas this was a triumph
almost as big as the acquiring of his own house.

I learned grammar when I was a private soldier on the pay of six pence
a day. The edge of my berth was my seat to study in, my knapsack was
my bookcase; a bit of board lying on my lap was my writing table; and the
task did not demand anything like a year of my life. And if I, under such
circumstances, and without parents or friends to advise or encourage me,
accomplished this undertaking, what excuse can there be for any youth,
however poor, however pressed with business, or however circumstanced
as to room or other conveniences?
