Question

[124]. Read the following passage carefully:

Passage: "The old market of the town has no shining signboards, yet it never lacks customers. A spice seller can tell by smell whether turmeric is fresh, a cloth merchant folds fabric so its weave can be judged, and a potter taps his pots to prove they are not cracked. Bargaining here is not a quarrel but a slow conversation: the buyer praises, the seller laments his costs, and both leave satisfied when the price feels fair. Young shoppers who prefer fixed prices in malls sometimes find this slow, but the market survives because it sells something malls rarely do — personal judgement, trust and the pleasure of choosing slowly." What can be inferred from the passage?

1.
When education is fitted to girls' real daily lives, families are more likely to support continued schooling.
2.
A transport network shapes habits and expectations — such as punctuality — far beyond merely moving people.
3.

4.
Where buyers trust the seller's skill and judgement, bargaining is likely to feel like conversation rather than conflict.
