Passage 1

Read the passage given below carefully and answer the questions that follow. Alexander, on his way back, met a saint. The saint was sitting on a coarse grass mat and basking in the sunshine. Alexander stood in front of him and hoped that the saint would pay respect to him, but he did not. Instead, he said, please stand aside. Let the sunshine come to me. ”Yes i am,” said Alexander. I have conquered half of the world. To this the saint said calmly, the emperors do not roam restlessly like you. Go, man, try to conquer the hearts of the people by love. Alexander bowed and quietly moved away.
