READ THE PASSAGE AND ANSWER THE QUESTIONS THAT FOLLOW.
For more than ten years, there has been agreements with countries such as Switzerland that have been keen to have "brain exchange" programmes with India. In the past it was assumed that both or all countries that have signed agreements for cooperation in education management and science and technology could benefit from sharing their brightest and best minds. In general, these programmes have led to increased development for diversifying cooperation in economic and other sectors as well.
Of late there has been a move toward the supply of funding for international travel and engagement for younger and younger people. There are obvious issues when asking minors under the age of 18 to study abroad. There have been discussions about the ethics and coordination of the possibility of transplanting; not just moving the student but also their entire support network. People have put a whole range of ideas forward as to why being educationally mobile should be an option and an almost equal amount of negative reasons for students to stay in their home countries.
One thing that is definite is that even though there seems to be largescale competition throughout the world for resources, jobs and security. There is no doubt that the last decade has shown that there is a strong correlation between a country's success and its educational or knowledge based ties. This relationship is clearly beneficial but the issues concerning the answers to a range of questions that are now just being asked about the permissibility of allowing "brain exchanges" earlier and earlier are yet to be answered fully.

Dear Shurti, How are you? How are you getting on in your new set-up? You left (41) Pune only a month ago but it feels like ages (42) we last met. I miss you a lot, especially (43) the study hours when we used to sit together and discuss our doubts. Memories are still fresh, going for shopping, playing badminton on Sundays, chatting for hours. I really miss all those sweet moments spent with you. Why don’t you drop in here during your winter break? We shall visit all the places we used to and have (44) fun. We shall meet our old friends and plan for a get together. I am sure you will think of something come visit. Do write to me when you are coming. I shall pick you up at the railway station. Convey my love and regards to your dad and mom.(45) Priya
