उत्तर
Medical science has taken a long stride. Advancement in surgery has brought a revolution in the lives of human beings. People have been brought back to life from the jaws of death through prompt medical help. Organ transplantation and organ regeneration are some of the new medical procedures. They are frequently used to save human lives.
Instances of kidney transplantation are quite common.
I remember one incident where a kidney transplantation saved a human life. There was an appeal from a kidney patient in all the leading newspapers. Both of his kidneys had failed. Prompt transplantation of a healthy kidney could save his life. At last, the man found a donor. The operation was successful. The organ transplantation brought him back to life from the brink of death.

Complete the following web with the help of the passage :

My dictionary tells me that personality is the “Personal or individual quality that makes one person be different and act differently from another.” Personality is, “the total physical, intellectual and emotional structure of an individual, including abilities, interests, and attitudes.”
There are many benefits to having a pleasant personality. There is only one opportunity to make a first impression, and all of us instinctively make decisions or judgments about an individual within the first few seconds of crossing paths. With that in mind, I believe when we teach our kids to smile, to be pleasant and cheerful, to be courteous and respectful of others, to pleasantly respond to requests or questions, we are helping them develop a personality that will open many doors for them. Once the doors are opened, the character will keep them open; but personality, not character, is on display in the first few seconds. Therefore, it’s important to develop a pleasant personality and use it for life.
