Read the passage and answer the question based on it.A fact that draws our attention is that, according to his position in life, an extravagant man is either admired or loathed. A successful business man does nothing to increase his popularity by being prudent with his money. A person who is wealthy is expected to lead a luxurious life and to be lavish with his hospitality. If he is not so, he is considered mean, and his reputation in business may even suffer in consequence. The paradox remains that he had not been careful with his money in the first place; he would never have achieved his present wealth.Among the low income group, a different set of values exists. The young clerk, who makes his wife a present of a new dress when he has not paid his house rent, is condemned as extravagant. Carefulness with money to the point of meanness is applauded as a virtue. Nothing in his life is considered more worthy than paying his bills. The ideal wife for such a man separates her housekeeping money into joyless little piles – so much for rent, for food, for the children’s shoes, she is able to face the milkman with equanimity every, month satisfied with her economizing ways , and never knows the guilt of buying something she can't really afford .As for myself, I fall neither of these categories. If I have money to spare I can be extravagant, but when, as is usually the case, I am hard up and then I am the meanest man imaginable.QUESTIONAccording to the passage the person, who is a successful businessman and wealthyIs expected to have lavish lifestyle.Should not bother about popularity.Is more popular if he appears to be wasting away his time.Must be extravagant before achieving success.None of the above

But it cannot be the principal aim in a well educated, cultured and brave man. A brave soldier prizes honour and victory most than his pay. A good clergyman is more interested in the moral welfare of his people than her returns. A good doctor valuing the care of his patient far more than his fees. A better teacher are always looking out for his/her students. A person's personality should be reflective in their nature and their beliefs. Thus over all the well-educated, intellectual persons, there work is first, money next.

The following text is adapted from M. R. James's short story, “Count Magnus.” In the passage, the narrator discusses the documents from which he first learned the story he tells.  The writer was a Mr. Wraxall. For my knowledge of him I have to depend entirely on the evidence his writings afford, and from these I deduce that he was a man past middle age, possessed of some private means, and very much alone in the world. As used in the text, what does the word, “afford” most nearly mean?Pay foreliminateIncureliminateProvideeliminateDeny
