Read the given passage and answer the questions that follow.
An important skill we all need to learn, in my opinion, is not to have preconceived notions about anything. Having said that I also know how difficult a thing it can be!
To drop the burden of preconceived notions, we need to unlearn a few things, which again is a tough thing to do. Very early on, we start cramming our brains with ideas and opinions. These notions might have entered our mind from our family, parents, society or some of the books we might have read. We need to understand the fact that everything in life keeps changing and we just cannot stick to something only because that thought might have entered our brains years back!
I always thought ice-creams or chilled items were bad for a child having a cold or a running nose. I was terribly surprised when a GP in London told my four-year-old grandson with a cold to go ahead and have a popsicle. Later I found out that there is no scientific evidence to prove that an ice-cream or a popsicle can aggravate a cold!
