Answer 1

Ashoka was a famous emperor. He loved his subjects very much. After the Kalinga war, he began to hate war. He started working for the welfare of his subjects.
Step 1: Detailed Explanation:

Sentence 1: "अशोक एक प्रसिद्ध सम्राट हुआ है ।" translates to "Ashoka was a famous emperor." The context refers to a historical figure, so past tense is appropriate.
Sentence 2: "वह अपनी प्रजा से बहुत प्रेम करता था ।" translates to "He loved his subjects very much." 'प्रजा' means subjects, and 'प्रेम करता था' is past tense for 'loved'.
Sentence 3: "कलिंग के युद्ध के बाद वह युद्ध से घृणा करने लगा ।" translates to "After the Kalinga war, he began to hate war." 'घृणा करने लगा' means 'began to hate'.
Sentence 4: "वह प्रजा की भलाई के काम करने लगा ।" translates to "He started working for the welfare of his subjects." 'भलाई' means welfare.
