Months before the wedding ceremony, an engagement is held which is called “magni” The couple is blessed here with gifts, jewelry and clothes Another important ritual is the “mehendi” which is a paste
made from the leaves of henna plant It is the traditional art of adorning the hands and the feet of the
bride with mehendi and the name of the groom is also hidden in the design
On the day of marriage, the couple exchanges garlands as a gesture of acceptance of one another and a pledge to respect one another as partners which is known as “jaimala” This is followed by “kanyadaan”, where the father of the bride places her hand in the groom’s hand requesting him to accept her as an equal partner
Another ritual is the “havan” in which the couple invokes Agni, the god of Fire, to witness their commitment to each other Crushed sandalwood, herbs, sugar rice and oil are offered to the ceremonial fire The “gath bandhan” takes place where scarves of the bride and groom are tied together symbolizing their eternal bond This signifies their pledge before God to love each other and remain loyal The couple then takes four “mangal pheras” or walk around the ceremonial fire, representing four goals in life:
“Dharma”, religious and moral duties; “Artha”, prosperity; “Kama” earthly pleasures; “Moksha”, spiritual salvation
The couple also takes seven steps together to begin their journey, called the “saptapardi” Then the ritual
of “sindoor” takes place where the groom applies a small dot of vermilion, a red powder to the bride’s forehead and welcomes her as his partner for life This signifies the completion of the marriage The parents of the bride and the groom then give their blessings, “ashirwad” to the newly wed couple as they touch the feet of their parents

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the answer to each of the question.
Most parents want their sons and daughters to have equal chances of success when they grow up Today, equality of the sexes is largely mandated by public policy and law However, old-fashioned ideas and a lot of prejudice are still part of our culture and present challenging questions for parents
Gender stereotypes are rigid ideas about how boys and girls should behave We all know what these stereotypes are: A "feminine" girls should be insecure, accommodating and a little illogical in her thinking A "masculine" boy should be strong, unemotional, aggressive, and competitive How are children exposed to these stereotypes? According to the researchers David and Myra Sadker of the American University of Washington, D.C., boys and girls are often treated differently in the classroom They found out that when boys speak, teachers usually offer constructive comments, when girls speech, teachers tend to focus on the behavior It's more important how the girls act rather than what they say
The emphasis on differences begins at birth and continues throughout childhood For example, few people would give pink baby's clothes to a boy or a blue blanket to a girl Later, many
of us give girls dolls and miniature kitchenware, while boys receive action figures and
construction sets There's nothing wrong with that The problem arises when certain activities are deemed appropriate for one sex but not the other According to Heather J Nicholson, Ph.D.,
director of the National Resource Center for Girls, Inc., this kind of practice prevents boys and girls from acquiring important skills for their future lives
"The fact is," says Nicholson, "that society functions as a kind of sorting machine regarding gender In a recent survey, fifty-eight percent of eighth-grade girls but only six percent of boys earned money caring for younger children On the other hand, twenty-seven percent of boys but
only three percent of girls earned money doing lawn work" If we are serious about educating a
generation to be good workers and parents, we need to eliminate such stereotypes as those mentioned previously
Gender stereotypes inevitably are passed to our children However, by becoming aware of the messages our children receive, we can help them develop ways to overcome these incorrect
ideas To counteract these ideas, parents can look for ways to challenge and support their
children, and to encourage confidence in ways that go beyond what society's fixed ideas about differences of sext are
