Read the passage given below.

10 marks
Good decoration reflects the personality of the people who live in the home. It should, first of
all, be distinctive, just as each person is distinct. A home should have unity not only within each
room but also throughout the house. Rooms should, to some degree, harmonise with each
other. The colour and styling of each room, particularly, should fit into the colour and styling of
the rooms which run out of it. Attractive home furnishings set the stage for pleasant living. If
they are an expression of yourself, you will have a feeling of satisfaction every time you enter
your home, and friends will share your enjoyment. i However, furnishings and surroundings
expressive of just the right note of restfulness, gay informality, or elegant simplicity are not often
assembled by accident. Even enthusiasm alone is not enough. For most home decorators, it
takes poring over plans, trying colour schemes, finding
ingenious ways to make the best of what you have, and shopping around to search out just the
right purchases at prices you can afford to pay. But there is keen pleasure in striving for the
perfect result, and great satisfaction in achieving it. Work and plan to enjoy life in your house
Limit the expenditures of time effort and money to the extent of your abilities, so that just
running the house doesn't dominate your life. Elegance and delicate things may be a drain you
can afford only in a limited way. If you can't afford outside help, select a house and furnishings
that require less care. Plan your activities so that tumult and upset are limited to a few rooms -
an activity room or a bedroom, or a corner of the dining room. You can select a pleasing
combination of colours from a wallpaper, a fabric, an oriental mug, a flower or scene, or even a
picture in a magazine. If you don't already have the furniture or mugs, it is a good idea to make
up a colour scheme in this way. Let one colour predominate. Limit a colour scheme to two or
three colours with white or gray tones.
