Read the excerpt from Jawaharlal Nehru’s speech "A Tryst with Destiny.”The future beckons to us. Whither do we go and what shall be our endeavour? To bring freedom and opportunity to the common man, to the peasants and workers of India; to fight and end poverty and ignorance and disease; to build up a prosperous, democratic and progressive nation, and to create social, economic and political institutions which will ensure justice and fullness of life to every man and woman.We have hard work ahead. There is no resting for any one of us till we redeem our pledge in full, till we make all the people of India what destiny intended them to be.
Answer
A
The evidence is not effective because Nehru scares off his audience with a description of how hard the work will be.
B
The evidence is effective because Nehru appeals to the emotions of the assembly to convince them that the work will be difficult.
C
The evidence is not effective because Nehru does not give adequate reasons for the assembly to work hard for the people.
D
The evidence is effective because Nehru gives several examples to the assembly of the hard work that needs to be done.
Explanation
Nehru makes the need for hard work concrete by naming several tasks: ending poverty, ignorance, and disease, building a prosperous and democratic nation, and creating institutions that ensure justice. These examples support his call for the assembly to keep working until its pledge is fulfilled. The best choice is that the evidence is effective because he gives several examples of the work that needs to be done.
