Trees give shade for the benefit of others, and while they themselves stand m the sun
and endure the scorching heat, they produce the fruit of. which others profit. The
character of good men is like that of trees. What is the use of this perishable body if no
use is made of it for the benefit of mankind? Sandalwood, the more it is rubbed, the
more scent does it yield. Sugarcane, the more it is peeled and cut up into pieces, the
more juice does it produce. The men who are noble at heart do not lose their qualities
even in losing their lives. What matters whether men praise them or not? What
difference does it make whether they die at this moment or whether lives are prolonged?
Happen what may, those who tread in the right path will not set foot in any other. Life
itself is unprofitable to a man who does not live for others. To live for the mere sake of
living one’s life is to live the life of dog and crows. Those who lay down their lives for
the sake of others will assuredly dwell forever in a world of bliss.

development assistance are increasingly discriminating with regard to policy performance
and institutional integrity. Investors today have too many options, and they are better able to
move their money to where the risks of corruption are less pronounced. And official agencies
and development institutions are seeking retums on their aid investments in the form of
poverty reduction and social development — with the same rigor with which private investors
look for financial returns. Perceptions in donor countries that corruption in recipient countries
sends their aid assistance down a black hole is one of the greatest threats of future aid. Again,
it is the poor who suffer. The World Bank, and other multilateral organizations are fully
aware that despite continued vigilance and’ state of the ‘art’ auditing’ and investigative
measures, the projects: that they support are not immune from the pressures of corruption.
There is simply no way to fully isolate individual projects and program lending from fraud if
it is pervasive throughout the environment in which they function. This calls for continued
efforts on the part of the Bank to pursue and prosecute fraud wherever they find

university in Warsaw was closed to women. Determined to receive a higher education, she
defiantly left Poland and in 1891 entered the Sorbonne, a French university, where she earned
her Master's degree and Doctorate in physics. Marie was fortunate to have studied at the
Sorbonne with some of the greatest scientists of her day, one of whom was Pierre Curie,
Marie and Pierre married in 1895 and spent many productive years working together in the
physics laboratory. A short time after.they discovered radium, Pierre was killed by a horse-

MCQ Part
Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions that follow (Questions 1-5)
The economy of Bangladesh attained tremendous growth in the recent’ past. It is
undeniable that business enterprises and industries have played a significant rote in
achieving this growth. The other side of the coin is that business entities and industries
have been causing excessive environmental pollution while threatening the sustainability
of the emerging economic growth. It is reported that industrial waste has a substantial
impact on natural resources that lead to excessive air and: water pollution while
destroying aquatic and forest ecology. It is estimated that Bangladesh loses over $6.5
billion amounting to 3.4% of its Gross Domestic Product (GDP) dué to environmental
pollution every year. Due to such environmental pollution, Bangladesh is not only
incurring huge economic losses but also witnessing premature deaths amounting to 28%
of all deaths ia the country. It is true that companies contribute to society by employmg
people and producing products and services: However, we need to keep in mind that they
also make profits by exploiting natural resources: Since companies cause environmental
degradation, they cannot avoid the responsibility to mitigate and prevent such
degradation. In this regard, the corporate environmental responsibility becomes
significant. The corporate environmental responsibility encompasses legally or morally
binding responsibility of a company for its social and environmental performance. It
obligates the companies to look beyond the short-term profitability and to undertake
responsible business practices while considering the environmental impact of the
corporate actions. In this regard, the concept of environmental accountability needs to be
integrated into the relevant laws and policies. '
