Q.6 Read the passage given bellow and answer the following questions that follow:
The great advantage of early rising is the good start it gives us in our day’s work. The early riser has done a large amount of work before other men get out of bed. In the early morning, the mind is fresh andthere are few sounds and other distractions. So the work done at that time is generally well done. The early riser also finds time to take some exercise in the fresh morning air, and this exercise supplies him with a fund of energy that will last until the evening. By beginning early, he knows that he has plenty of time to do thoroughly. All his work is finished in good time and he goes to bed early. He gets several hours of sleep before midnight when sleep is most refreshing. After a sound night’s rest he rises early next morning in good health and spirit for the labour of a new day.
