Not all that glitters is gold. Not all that is white is milk. Not all people who wear
saffron clothes are sages. These age-old sayings hold true even now, especially the last one.
We see a lot of people wearing saffron clothes, but not all of them are sanyasis in the true
sense of the word. A sanyasi is one who guides his followers on the right path.

Recently, I attended the inaugural function of a home for destitute women in

Mysore. In most cases, the women were there because they were either harassed by their
in- laws or tortured by drunken husbands. Owing to their socio-economic conditions, even
the parents of the victims were unable to take them in and care for their hapless children.
There had also been instances when young girls, lured by romance, had run away from

their homes and had been deserted by their lovers after the honeymoon. These girls usually
did not dare return to their parents.

The saying that ‘success has many fathers, but failure has none' is true indeed. We
get to see only the distressed women and their children, while the main cause of their
problems remains hidden in the background. So the victims cannot be blamed altogether.
Often it is circumstances that force them into such drudgery. These women and girls need
to be psychologically strong and determined to face difficulties with courage and go on
with their lives.

96. The main reason for the main cause of their problems remaining hidden is:

(1) people are waiting for it to come out in the open

(2) people don't want to be bothered with others' problems

(3) nobody has tried to expose it

(4) nobody has bothered to find out the real cause

97. The opening sentence Not all that glitters is gold means:

(1) one must not be deceived by appearances

(2) only gold has that unmistakable shine

(3) glitter is the true quality of truth

(4) all metals that shine must necessarily be as good as gold

98. Wearing saffron clothes does not make one a sanyasi is another way of saying:

(1) saffron is not the favourite colour of the sanyasis

(2) saffron must be changed to some other colour

(3) anybody who wears saffron is a sanyasi

(4) saffron must only be worn by true ascetics

(4) they were financially self-sufficient

100. Success has many fathers but failure has none means
