PASSAGE
The desert floras shame us with their cheerful adaptations to the seasonal limitations. Their whole
duty is to flower and fruit, and they do it hardly, or with tropical luxuriance, as the rain admits. It is
recorded in the report of the Death Valley expedition that after a year of abundant rains, on the
Colorado desert was found a specimen of Amaranthus ten feet high. A year later the same species in
the same place matured in the drought at four inches. Seldom does the desert herb attain the full
stature of the type. Extreme aridity and extreme altitude have the same dwarfing effect, so that we
find in the high Sierras and in Death Valley related species in miniature that reach a comely growth
n mean temperatures. Very fertile are the desert plants in expedients to prevent evaporation,
turning their foliage edge-wise toward the sun, growing silky hairs, exuding thick gum. The wind,

PASSAGE
The public distribution system, which provides food at low prices, is a subject of vital
concern. There is a growing realization that though India has enough food to feed its masses two
square meals a day, the monster of starvation and food insecurity continues to haunt the poor in
our country.
Increasing the purchasing power of the poor through providing productive employment leading to
rising income, and thus good standard of living is the ultimate objective of public policy. However,
till then, ther is a need to provide assured supply of food through a restructured, more efficient and
decentralized public distribution system (PDS). Although the PDS is extensive – it is one of the
largest such systems in the world – it hasn’t reached the rural poor and the remote places. It remain
an urban phenomenon, with the majority of the rural poor still ot of its reach due to lack of
economic and physical access. The poorest in the cities and the migrants are left out, for they
www.ssccglpinnacle.com
Pinnacle SSC CGL Coaching, Gurudwara Road, Model Town, Hisar 9729327755 www.ssccglpinnacle.com Page 35
generally do not possess ration cards. The allocation of PDS supplies in big cities is larger than in
rural areas. In view of such deficiencies in the system, the PDS urgently needs to be streamlined.
Also, considering the large foodgrain production combined with food subsidy on one hand and the
continuing slow starvation and dismal poverty of rural population on the other, there is a strong
case for making PDS target-group oriented. By making PDS target-group oriented, not only the
poorest and the neediest would be reached without additional cost but we can also reduce the
overall costs incurred.
173. The public distribution system, which provides food at ____________ is a subject of vital
concern.
(a) fair prices (b) low prices
c) as per capita income (d) high prices
174. What according to the passage, would be the rational of making the PDS target-group
oriented?
(a) It will give food to the poorest section without additional cost.
(b) It will motivate the target-group population to work more.
© It will abolish the imbalance of urban and rural sectors.
(d) It will remove poverty.
