Step-by-step solution
Each step shows the marks it earns, as an examiner would award them. Checked by an independent re-solve from the question paper.
- 1 mark
The statement is true because each person's needs and aspirations differ, so what is a goal for one may not be for another.
- 1 mark
Example: a landless rural labourer may want more days of work and better wages, while a prosperous farmer's daughter may want freedom to study and to have a career. One person may value income and another security or freedom.
Answer: Developmental goals differ with people's needs and situations, e.g. a labourer wants better wages while a rich farmer's daughter wants education and freedom.
