Questions.

Question 1.
Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow. (8)

Spices bring to mind images of tempting culinary art, fascinating travels and the bitter struggle for supremacy. Expressions like ‘Variety is the spice of life’ and ‘sugar and spice and all that is nice’ show how spellbound were men of letters about spices.

To Orientals, spices are indeed the soul of food. In the Western world, it evokes dreams of exotic tropical islands, exciting expeditions to find routes to the source and the rise and fall of empires. Columbus went westwards in 1492 from Europe to find a sea route to the land of spices but found the New world. Eight years later, Vasco da Gama went round Africa and touched Kozhikode on the South-West coast of India. Long before that, Arabs started trading with the Orient through land routes. During the 13th century, Marco Polo experienced the attraction of spices in his travels. Even the European conquests and trade arrangement in India and the East Indies have a lot to do with spices.

Thousands of years ago, great masters of Ayurveda (the Indian system of medicine), notably Susruta and Charaka, discussed in detail the use of spices for culinary and medicinal purposes. Enterprising soldiers of fortune took the knowledge of spices to Egypt. There they used spices and aromatic herbs in food, medicine, cosmetics and for embalming. The conquest of Egypt and Asia by Alexander the Great made spices an article of commerce in Mediterranean countries and later to central and Northern Europe. There are reports of pepper being used in meat, both to aid preservation and to mask the unwelcome odour of deterioration of quality during the long winter storage.

Hippocrates, the father of modern medicine, and Theophrastus, a Greek scholar and botanist, wrote treatises on medicinal plants, including spices. India has been home of most of the major spices of the world with Kerala varieties dominating in international

Question 2.
Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow. (12)
The value of higher education cannot be underestimated considering the contemporary realities of the competitive marketplace. A higher education degree literally serves as the first impression of a jobseeker applying for employment. A college degree is a person’s pass to the business world and so work-related opportunities are enormous. Truth is, college degrees are never the same if we take into account the reputation of higher establishment as well as the prestige of a particular field of studies.

Today’s holders of college degrees have unprecedented opportunities of job search since the employment market has largely expanded through online domains, offering freelance and part-time vacancies. Though, in both real and virtual employment, it is always a person’s CV (resume) that is initially considered by an employer, in 95% of cases the inclusion of a college degree is a must to get a well-paid job.

Overall, college education provides students with appropriate knowledge and skills to be used later in real life circumstances and the working environment. However, career choices do not matter since the contemporary market is vast and enormous.

In particular, college education enables students to gain preliminary information about many essential aspects required to cope with real-life challenges. Then students expand their knowledge and acquire practical skills by grasping abstract theories and concepts. A college curriculum teaches students how to clearly express personal standpoints and opinions both in conversation and writing. In most cases students acquire global thinking as well as thinking relevant to the solution of specific problems.

Furthermore, students learn how to work in teams and solve tasks in cooperation; this enables establishment of team spirit and ability to make a personal contribution to overall mutual achievement. Various case studies based on real-life experiences teach students to understand the subject better and therefore adapt to further complexities.

Dear Diary
I want to share with you my trekking experience at Kedarnath during the summer holidays. I was a part of our school’s Adventure Club which visited the Kedarnath shrine in Uttarakhand.
It was a wonderful experience to trek over 14 kilometres to reach the shrine from the bus terminus. The climb was rather steep, but with encouragement from the teachers accompanying us, we all were able to reach the shrine without a hitch.
On the way up, we stopped twice to refresh ourselves with tea and snacks available locally.
The cool breeze at the shrine was really invigorating, as we were really tired.
After attending the rituals at the temple, we had a delicious lunch before returning to the bus terminus the same evening. I will never forget this adventurous trip!

Vehicular Pollution and its Affects
by Priyanka, Class IX
Vehicular pollution has become one of the most common environmental issue, especially in the highly populated cities. Pollution from idling vehicles, older and inadequately maintained vehicles as well as diesel cars is the worst contributor to the problem. People who are constantly exposed to vehicular pollution are reported to suffer from more than average respiratory problems, allergies and general sickness. It is not just hitting the adults, but also the immunity of children, thus affecting the life expectancy levels of the country.
Therefore, this situation must be addressed with a stringent application of environmental laws. Switching to hybrid cars, adopting car pooling methods and promoting public transport are some measures that can be helpful in controlling the swift rise in pollution and its harmful effects.

Answer 4.
Once upon a time there lived a poor woman who used to toil for hours for her only son Raj. She worked for a livelihood to buy medicine for her son who was suffering from cancer. The woman spent sleepless nights to look after him. But it was unfortunate that the mother could not save her son. The old woman bemoaned the death and went to Lord Buddha.

She prayed to the Lord to revive her son. Lord Buddha asked the woman to collect three fistsful of gram from families who had never experienced any death in the family. The lady went from door to door hoping to receive the gram. She walked many miles barefoot, but in vain. Death had touched all the doors. The lady, in extreme agony, realised the universal truth. In her pain, she went through self-realisation. She realised that death is inevitable and humans are mortal. It is in death that one receives salvation. This grim realisation brought a great consolation and peace to the old lady’s mind. The lady attained spiritual bliss in her realisation of accepting death as a certainty.

The Farmer’s Fate
Once upon a time there lived a farmer named Kishan in Daulatpur village of Aligarh district. He was very hardworking and honest. His family members included his wife and four children. They were content with whatever income he earned and were living happily. Kishan worked very hard on his land and worked hard to grow his crops.

Unfortunately his hard work did not bring fruitful results and he suffered a lot. The major reason was that he could not use essential fertilisers and proper equipment to enhance the quality of his grains. As he was a poor farmer, he could not use modern materials and equipment. To improve the quality of seeds and to grow his crops better, he required a tractor and costly fertilisers. Finally he decided to buy a tractor. But he did not have enough money, so he had to mortgage his land. Ultimately, he mortgaged his land and sold his wife’s ornaments to buy costly diesel and fertilisers.

As a result, his crops grew faster and of better quality than before. This time he was very happy as it was a period of celebration for him and he was expecting to gain profit by selling his crops at a higher price. But unfortunately, due to a fall in foodgrain prices, he could not make profit by selling his crops. Now, he was left with him no money and was bound to accept his unchangeable fate.

(iv) Wordsworth compares the song of the solitary reaper with the song of the nightingale and the cuckoo bird to convey that the voice of the solitary reaper is more melodious, emotional and soothing than that of the two birds.
(v) Shakespeare compares human life to a drama in which a person plays many parts as he progresses through life from infancy to old age. He finally exits from this Earth just like an actor who has completed his role on the stage.

Answer 10.
Yes, Mrs Bramble faced a conflict of values when she heard that Bill Bramble, her husband, was not going to fight the bout which would have given them enough money to finance her son’s education, A victory in the bout would bring five hundred pounds to Bill, while even a defeat would give him one hundred and twenty pounds. This money is very important for the Brambles as it will be used in giving Harold the best education. However, Mrs Bramble does not like violence (like a bout of boxing) at all and it is one of her family’s values. Thus, Mrs Bramble gets upset due to a moral conflict between her family values and their, financial needs. I think it is justified for her to become upset because it is natural for a mother to worry about her son’s welfare. However, the important thing in such a situation is to overcome the worries and live on.

Forgiveness is a noble virtue which blesses both the giver and the receiver. It is very difficult to forgive those who offend us. It requires a lot of love and compassion, and most importantly, strength and tolerance to be able to forgive others.
In the poem ’Lord Ullin’s Daughter’, the father does not approve of the relationship between his daughter and the chieftain. He feels that his daughter’s marrying the chieftain of another clan would bring disgrace to his name, his family and his tribe. For him, his excessive pride and honour of his family name was more important than human life. The end is the tragic drowning of his daughter in the tempestuous sea before his own eyes. If he had practised the virtue of forgiveness, he could have reconciled with his daughter.

Answer 11.
The Lagado academy is a satire on abstract or theoretical knowledge, which is pursued for its own sake, with no thought to the practical applications or consequences in the real world. Even now, huge amounts of public money are being spent worldwide on experiments that may or may not have long term results for mankind.
The Professor who was working on a project to extract sunbeams from cucumbers is a famous and often-quoted example of the seeming foolishness of academicians. Another scientist, whose hands and clothes were covered with filth, was trying to convert human excreta back to food. Yet another one was attempting to make gunpowder from ice. He was also planning to publish articles on malleability of fire. It is believed that the most ridiculous experiments and theories mentioned at the academy in the book had actually been carried out or proposed by the scientist members of the Royal Society of London for improving natural knowledge. This is a scientific society founded in 1660 which continues under the shortened name, The Royal Society. It had among its members such distinguished people as Isaac Newton and Robert Boyle.

Foolish Opportunist The farmer was the same huge creature whom Gulliver had first seen pursuing his companions. Gulliver was left alone in the island of Brobdingnag when the giant master, the farmer, took Gulliver from his servant and placed him on the ground. The farmer took Gulliver to his family. He was kind with Gulliver and offered him food. He understood that the relatively tiny Gulliver was as rational as he himself was and treated him gently. However, the farmer put Gulliver on display around Brobdingnag, which clearly showed that he would rather profit from his discovery than treat him as an equal. His cruel side was revealed when he nearly starved Gulliver to death. The farmer, as a character, represented the average Brobdingnagian’s poor intelligence, wielding an extraordinary power over Gulliver simply by the virtue of his immense size.

Commercial Minded He easily got influenced by his friend’s advice to utilise Gulliver as a commercial commodity for earning a profit. He earned as much as he could by showcasing Gulliver as an object of entertainment in towns. He even sold Gulliver to the queen to get rid of further expenses for Gulliver’s maintenance.

Three Men in a Boat
The three friends, Harris, George and Jerome (the narrator) decided to go on a holiday because they felt greatly stressed due to overwork. After debating whether they should go for a sea trip or a boating trip, they decided on taking a boating trip up the River Thames. It was an interesting experience, as they told old stories, laughed and played during the trip, thoroughly enjoying the journey. They had various escapades and Jerome also recounted many of his memories of his earlier trips which were really hilarious. All these activities left them exhausted, as they had to struggle for initially making all the arrangements for the trip, cooking while on the trip, dealing with the problems faced by Montmorency, the narrator’s dog, and many other problems. It wasn’t enjoyable to wake up early on a cold and wet morning everyday while on the trip. However, on the whole, it was an enjoyable trip and so its purpose, to de-stress them, was fulfilled.

Happy-go-Lucky J is the narrator of the story and appears to be a happy-go-lucky man. He has varied shades. At first he is a hypochondriac who thinks that he has all the diseases of the world. He likes to be the leader, which is clearly depicted from his behaviour when they pack for the boat.

He also has a helpful side which becomes apparent in the incident of the cheese. He is a true philosopher whose soul dwells in romance and imagination.

Aesthetic Sense As a man of strong imagination, J is a man having his head often in the clouds. He is found to be a great observer of nature as well as the human mind, as he comments about his other two friends. He also has a keen sense of aesthetics as he praises the glory of Kingston and its art and artisans as well as in praising the China dog as a specimen of craft. He even critiques his friends’ choices of clothing and gestures.

Reading (20 Marks)

Questions.

Question 1.
Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow. (8)

Ayurveda or the science of life, is an ancient system of Indian medicine th^t is 4000 years old.
According to Ayurveda, health depends on the normal balance of three elements of the body – vata (air), pitho (bile), and kapha (phlegm).
Information about the system with proof is contained in two important medical treatises in Sanskrit language – the Charaka Samhita and the Sushruta Samhita, considered as belonging to the physician Charaka, and Sushruta, who was a surgeon. These compilations are according to the latest and updated medical knowledge made in the 1st century AD and later in the 7th century AD. Another work, widely followed in recent times is Vaghbhatta’s ‘Ashtangahridayam’.

Sushruta identified as many as 1200 diseases, including tuberculosis and small pox. Ayurvedic treatment is largely dietetic (food prescribed) and medicinal. All drugs used are obtained from indigenous plants. Charaka lists 500 medicinal plants, and Sushruta mentions 760. In the olden days, physicians used to collect the plants and prepare the drugs themselves. Many of these have finally appeared in Western pharmacopoeias (books describing drugs).

Ancient Ayurveda included advanced surgical practices. Details of instruments for different operations are given in the classical texts. Even plastic surgery was done, particularly for the restoration of an amputated (cut off) nose, by transplanting tissue from the cheek. Modern surgeons have adopted this technique. Sushruta describes 20 sharp and 101 blunt surgical instruments including knives of various patterns.

During the British rule, large sections of the population, especially in the rural areas, continued to rely on Ayurveda. But Allopathy (Western system of medicine) was officially encouraged by the British. Since independence, however, Ayurveda has received official recognition. Ayurvedic universities and colleges have been started and integrated courses set up combining the study of ancient remedies and modern medicine. Many research institutions are now documenting ancient health practices and herbal remedies.

Question 2.
Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow. (12)

Today, India looks like it is on course to join the league of developed nations. It is beginning to establish a reputation not just as the technology nerve centre and back-office to the world, but also as its production centre. India’s secularism and democracy serve as a role model to other developing countries. There is great pride in an India that easily integrates with a global economy, yet maintains a unique cultural identity.

But what is breathtaking is India’s youth. For, despite being an ancient civilisation that traces itself to the very dawn of human habitation, India is among the youngest countries in the world. More than half the country is under 25 years of age and more than a third is under 15 years of age.

Brought up in the shadow of the rise of India’s service industry boom, this group feels it can be at least as good, if not better, than anyone else in the world. This confidence has been demonstrating a great propensity to consume, throwing away ageing ideas of asceticism and thrift. Even those who do not have enough to consume today feel that they have the capability and opportunity to do so.

The economic activity created by this combination of a growing labour pool and rising consumption demand is enough to propel India to double-digit economic growth for decades. One just has to look at the impact that the baby boomers in the US had over decades of economic activity, as measured by equity and housing prices. This opportunity also represents the greatest threat to India’s future. If the youth of India are not properly educated and if there are not enough jobs created, India will have forever lost its opportunity. There are danger signs in abundance.

India’s IT and BPO industries are engines of job creation, but they still account for only 0.2 per cent of India’s employment. Employment creation needs an abundant supply of capital. Controls on foreign investment have resulted in China getting five times the foreign direct investment or an advantage of US$ 200 billion over the past five years. The growing interest in India by global private equity firms augurs well as they represent pools of patient and smart capital, but they too face many bureaucratic hurdles.

(i) What makes the author think that India is on the verge of joining the band of developed nations? (2)
(ii) What serves as a role model to other developing countries? (2)
(iii) Why does the author say that India is young? (2)
(iv) What is needed for employment creation? (2)

Dear Diary
After watering my little shrub in the school garden and attaching a paper label on it with my name, I felt great pleasure this year, l had planted a rose plant as a member of our school team on ‘World Environment Day’ by taking a cutting from a rose plant from a nursery. Gardening as an activity during the zero period this month has been very exciting. The colour of the flowers of my plant is pink. Every day I use scissors to trim the branches and water the plant regularly to foster the shrub to grow faster. I have decided to decorate the school pulpit used for morning assembly with roses that would bloom from this plant. This will also showcase my gardening skills. I am very excited to experience the growth of my plant just as a mother gets excited on the growth of her child. More about the growth of the rose plant will be given in tomorrow’s entry. Good Night.

Say No to Bullying
by Ayushi Sen, Class IX-C

Students teasing and making fun of other students is a common sight in classrooms, buses, playgrounds etc of schools. It is considered healthy to cement social bonds between them, but it may also sometimes take the form of bullying. Physically beating or hitting another student, torturing him or her mentally or emotionally and abusing them verbally are forms of bullying that may cause the victims to feel depressed, lower the victim’s morale or cause him or her to suffer an “inferiority complex.
Students, particularly senior students, must not indulge in such activities under any circumstances. If at any point of time teachers or other elders sense any discomfort between students, they must try to resolve the matter immediately through discussion. The matter should not be allowed to fester till it reaches an explosive point. Each one of us is special in his or her own way and this fact needs to be respected by all.

Answer 4.
Once upon a time, there was a yogi who lived in a forest and taught yoga. One of his disciples was a young prince.The yogi explained the power of yoga to the prince and said, “It is in meditation that one gains concentration”. The young prince practised the different forms of yoga like power yoga and gravity yoga. He strictly followed the guidelines of his guru. In course of time, he started gaining physical and mental strength. He meditated and reached a high level of performance with concentration.

All this helped this young prince to self-motivate himself through introspection. It also increased his power of intuition to foretell the future. Soon the young prince excelled In the art of making correct predictions about future happenings. He gradually gained spiritual power only in the meditative posture of yoga. Several years later, it was said that this ascetic yogi did not take any money as remuneration for telling the people’s future, as he believed that money would be a curse to his hard-earned power. His fame spread all over the country and many persons came to take his advice on what actions they should take in their lives so that they succeed in whatever they do. He benefited a large number of people and lived to the ripe age of 93.

One morning Rohan went to the bank as he had some important work there. While standing in the queue, waiting for his turn, he saw three men enter the bank. The guard was not standing at his usual assigned place at that time. These men did not seem like the usual customers because they were wearing caps and one of them carried a big bag. Rohan became suspicious. Suddenly Rohan heard people start shouting and screaming. He realised that these men were robbers. The robbers snatched the strongroom keys from the bank manager and headed towards the room. Rohan, being a frequent visitor to the bank, knew about the place where the secret alarm was installed in the bank. He knew that, as a responsible citizen, it was his duty to help the bank fight against crime. He quietly moved towards the secret alarm and pressed it. The police control room received the signal and rushed a group of policemen with arms to the bank. The robbers were caught red-handed while they were trying to flee from the bank with the cash and other valuables. The police thanked Rohan for his presence of mind. After some days Rohan was felicitated with a bravery award by the Commissioner of Police.

Answer 10.
The poet, while passing through a valley, heard the ‘melancholic strain’ of the solitary reaper singing a sad song while harvesting the grain. He tried to guess the probable reason behind that sad tone. Although he could not understand the lyrics, as they were in the local language, he thought she might be singing about the death or illness of a loved one, some family problem or for the lives lost in the war which had recently taken place.
The fact that the poet could feel the intensity and passion in the reaper’s song without understanding the lyrics indicates its expressiveness. He could feel the song resounding in his ears as he moved on. He finally said that he would cherish its memory in his heart forever. The values that impressed him were the song’s simplicity, its harmony with nature, the reaper’s devotion towards work and her quality of taking sorrows lightly.

The Bishop considered the convict as a friend and a fellow human being instead of as a criminal. So the Bishop treated him with love and respect. Excessive torture by the prison guards had made the convict a victim of extreme frustration and negativity. Even after receiving kindness and compassion from the Bishop, the convict reacted with a criminal intent and stole the silver candlesticks which were very dear to the Bishop, as they had been presented to him by his mother when she was dying.
Thus, when the convict was caught by the gendarmes (French police) and the candlesticks discovered on him, the Bishop informed the Sergeant that he had himself gifted the candlesticks to the convict. The Bishop’s words made the convict regret his action. He was overwhelmed by the Bishop’s love and felt that he had once again become a human being. Thus, the Bishop succeeded in proving that the human body is the temple of the living God.

Answer 11.
As soon as Gulliver reached the shores of Lilliput, he fell asleep due to extreme exertion. He woke up after several hours. He was amazed to find himself bound with ropes. He was surrounded by a crowd
of exceptionally small human creatures who were six Inches in height. These little creatures were shooting arrows on Gulliver from their bows and thereby causing him much pain. Gulliver was not released even after a long time, but was offered food and drinks. The Lilliputians also made arrangements to transport Gulliver to the capital city and prepared a machine for this purpose. Gulliver’s huge size surprised the little creatures. The king himself came out to look at Gulliver.

As Gulliver lay still, the great Lord addressed him in a language he could not understand. Gulliver was pinned to the ground but he could move his head slightly left or right. However, on Gulliver’s request made through his gestures, they fed him well and served him two hogsheads of wine mingled with a sleeping potion. Gulliver remained docile to the Lilliputians. They even loosened the cords enough for Gulliver to help his digestive processes.

The novel is itself a journey for Lemuel Gulliver to explore across the seas. Throughout the novel, Gulliver was driven by his insatiable thirst for exploring the unknown. As a travelogue, the novel had opened up vistas to understand that Gulliver is a critical observer as well as an entertainer as he travels around the world. However, he is not a hero at all.
He was naive and good to the Lilliputians. The land of Lilliput was in exact visual contrast to that of the Brobdingnagians. In this latter nation, Gulliver underwent the unnerving experiences of almost being devoured by a giant rat, taken captive by pirates, shipwrecked on faraway shores, held hostage by an eleven year old girl, and shot in the face with poison arrows. He faced them all with his wit and courage. Gulliver was also gullible, as he did not understand the various ways in which the Lilliputians exploited him. He was quite adept in navigational calculations and the details of seafaring. He was far less able to reflect on himself and his nation in any profoundly critical way. He rarely talked about his feelings and so kept things to himself.

Three Men in a Boat
When the topic of a one week’s holiday was discussed by the three friends, Harris rejected the idea of going to retreat, because he felt that life without comforts and amenities will be difficult. He suggested a sea trip instead. However, the narrator rejected this idea with the argument that a sea trip is enjoyable only if it is meant for a few months. For a trip of one week, it is not a good idea. He gave the reason that one is in high spirits on the first day of the sea trip. However, the very next day, one feels sea-sick, and regrets having come on the trip at all.

It takes one three or four days to be cured of the sea-sickness. Thus, by the time one gets accustomed to the sea.and starts enjoying the trip, it is over, and one comes back without relaxing, enjoying the trip or doing any good to one’s health. In this regard, the narrator was reminded of the experience of his brother-in-law, who, for the sake of his health, went on a sea trip for one Meek with a return ticket from London to Liverpool. But as he reached Liverpool, he had grown so sick of the sea-voyage that he sold his ticket of return to somebody and came back by train.

Montmorency is a dog who leaves the impression that he is
A Lover of Freedom Montmorency was a fox terrier and J’s pet who recovered from ill-health to prove that he was a fighter. He always carried an attitude that he was free to do anything he wanted. Montmorency was called by the author as an angel sent to Earth. He had a gentle noble expression, which brought tears to the eyes of elderly folk. However, it was his nature to create trouble.

Mischievous Troublemaker Montmorency’s mischievousness was kept hidden under his innocent look. The author had to pay for the chickens Montmorency had killed and had to drag him out of many street fights with other dogs. Once Montmorency killed the neighbour’s cat and on one occasion, he had kept a man stuck in his own tool shed for about two hours.

Curious and Cowardly Montmorency turned out to be a high spirited dog in performing tricks. He was always curious about everything. But whenever he had faced determined adversaries like cats, he fell back.

Question 1.
Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow. (8)
The morning of 6th August, 1945 in Hiroshima, Japan did not begin in any exceptional way; the people had no idea that they were about to be a part of one of the most significant mornings in all of history. At 8:15 am, the United States of America (USA) forces dropped the first atomic bomb, ironically called, when one considers the enormity of the bomb’s significance, ‘Little Boy’. Three days later, the USA dropped a second bomb, nicknamed ‘Fat Man’ on Nagasaki. Historically, the use of the atomic bombs is seen as a decision that the United States made during WWII in order to end the war with Japan. Regardless of the motivation for using the bombs, they left a heavy death toll. The bombing of Hiroshima not only changed the physical and emotional health and culture of the Japanese people, but also changed the world.

The population in Japan in October 1940 was 73,114,308; in November 1945 the population was 71,998,104. Japan was visibly a thriving country that was hit very hard by the bombing.

In 1945, most people in the United States thought that it was absolutely necessary to bomb Japan. They thought that the bombings put an end to the war and saved countless lives. On the other hand, some felt that Japan’s situation in 1945 was already ‘catastrophically hopeless’, and, prior to the bombing, Japanese leaders were preparing to surrender in the summer of 1945. It has even been suggested that the United States had decoded Japan’s messages, and were aware of the impending surrender, thus making the horrors unleashed on Hiroshima completely unnecessary. Lastly, and most disturbingly, the bomb may have been dropped because of President Truman’s desire to intimidate the USSR. It is unlikely that we will know the complete truth of why the bomb was dropped, but what is distressingly clear are the effects of the bomb.

The bombings crippled the nation of Japan for many years. After the bombings, any humans that survived the initial blast were suffering from radiation exposure.

Question 2.
Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow. (12)
Humour is infectious. The sound of roaring laughter is far more contagious than any cough, sniffle or sneeze. When laughter is shared, it binds people together and increases happiness and intimacy. In addition to the domino effect of joy and amusement, laughter also triggers healthy physical changes in the body. Humour and laughter strengthen your immune system, boost your energy, diminish pain and protect you from the damaging effects of stress. Best of all, this priceless medicine is fun, free and easy to use. Laughter is a powerful antidote to stress, pain and conflict. Nothing works faster or more dependably to bring your mind and body back into balance than a good laugh. Humour lightens your burdens, inspires hopes, connects you to others and keeps you grounded, focused and alert.

With so much power to heal and renew, the ability to laugh easily and frequently is a tremendous resource for surmounting problems, enhancing your relationships and supporting both physical and emotional health.

Laughter relaxes the whole body. A good, hearty laugh relieves physical tension and stress, leaving your muscles relaxed for up to 45 minutes afterwards. Laughter also boosts the immune system. It decreases stress hormones and increases immune cells and infection-fighting antibodies, thus improving your resistance to disease. It triggers the release of endorphins, the body’s natural ‘feel-good’ chemicals. Endorphins promote an overall sense of well-being and can even temporarily relieve pain.

Laughter protects the heart. It improves the functioning of blood vessels and increases blood flow, which can help protect you against a heart attack and other cardiovascular problems.

Laughter makes you feel good; and the good feeling that you get when you laugh remains with you even after the laughter subsides. Humour helps you keep a positive, optimistic outlook through difficult situations, disappointments and physical or emotional loss. More than just a respite from sadness and pain, laughter gives you the courage and strength to find new sources of meaning and hope. Even in the most difficult of times, a laugh or even simply a smile can go a long way toward making you feel better. And laughter really is contagious. Just hearing laughter primes your brain and readies you to smile and join in on the fun.

Dear Diary
I want to share one of the most beautiful experiences of my life with you today. I was the lucky one out of the 13 interns to accompany ISRO’s head astronaut Mr. PK Singhal on India’s first manned mission to the Moon. As soon as we covered the long distance and reached our destination safely, our happiness knew no bounds. We were able to plant the Indian tricolour in a prominent place on the moon’s surface.
The Moon is breathtakingly beautiful. ‘Zero gravity’ hops, a rugged and grainy surface and everything else was heavenly. We explored the craters and peaks of the moon for two hours near to where our spacecraft had landed. We also collected some samples of the moon’s soil for analysis by Indian scientists. Then we got the command from ISRO headquarters to return. We blasted off back to Earth immediately.
I feel really proud and grateful to have got a chance to experience something people only dream of.

Soccer – The World’s Most Popular Sport
by Aperna

For many centuries, people played kicking games with different kinds of balls. Soccer, also called ‘Association Football’, to distinguish it from ‘American Football, developed from these games and has become the world’s most popular sport, being played in over 140 countries. The game is known as ‘football’ because the hands of the players (except the goalkeeper) are not allowed to touch the ball in play during a game. The name ’soccer’ comes from the high socks that players wear under their boots.

The game consists of two teams of eleven players each contesting each other to put the ball into the opponents’ goal. The normal time duration of a game is 90 minutes, being divided into two halves of 45 minutes each with a short interval in between. The winner is the team whichrscores more goals during the duration of a game. The first soccer World Cup was held in 1930. which was won by Uruguay.

Answer 4.
Once upon a time there lived a small poor boy whose name was Rama. He loved to play tricks with animals. One day, Rama held out a piece of bread to a dog. The dog jumped forward to take it but failed because Rama withdrew his hand at that moment and ran away with the piece of bread. The dog barked and ran after Rama for the bread. Rama ultimately threw the bread, but it fell in the drain. As the dog tried to attack Rama in frustration, he hit it with a stick.

A middle aged man was passing by and saw Rama’s act of mischief. He called Rama and asked him, “Why are you hitting the dog?” Rama brushed away the question with laughter. The man offered Rama a ten rupee coin and advised him not to hurt street dogs. He also asked Rama to buy some bread and feed the dog himself. Rama then bought another loaf of fresh bread. He lifted the dog in his arms and fed him the bread. The dog ate the bread quickly as it was hungry. Then it licked Rama’s face to show its gratitude. Rama was now a changed boy.

Or

The day before yesterday, I saw an old lady sitting in the park and looking at me continuously. It was during my summer vacations and I had come home. It was my final year in college and I had secured a job in a reputed company. Playing with my nephew in the park, I was trying to match up to his energy and stamina. We were playing handball when I noticed that lady. She had been looking at me. She seemed old. She was thin and had grey hair.

I could not control my curiosity and went to her. I asked her why was she looking at me continuously and if I could be of any help to her. She took some time to react, but instead of words, tears came out of her eyes. She finally spoke and told me that looking at me she was reminded of her son. The old lady’s son was a soldier in the army. He had lost his life while fighting a battle against our enemies. He died serving the nation. The old lady was proud to be the mother of a martyr.

I felt really touched by her loss and tried my best to console her. I hugged her and appreciated the patriotic zeal of her son. She thanked me and asked me if she could look at me and my nephew play in the park. I smiled and agreed.

Answer 8.
(i) The poet doubted that he would come back because on taking one road, it would lead to another road and so on, so that he would not be able to return.
(ii) The second line means that all roads lead to other roads and this pattern repeats.
(iii)The poet is standing at a fork of two roads in a wood where he has to decide which road to travel on.
(iv) This poem signifies the choices one has to take in life. Once a choice is made, we cannot retrace our steps and make the other choice, as one choice leads to another and so on.

(i) Hero’refers to Corporal Turnbull.
(ii) The occasion was Corporal Turnbull’s lecture on the hand grenade.
(iii) He had come back from Dunkirk (France)
(iv) The occasion ended with Corporal Turnbull assigning Private Quelch for permanent cookhouse duties.

(i) Just like the brook, human beings originate by taking birth. Both of them have to struggle to reach the final destination in life, irrespective of the hurdles and obstructions in their path. They face similar phases of life and go through happiness and difficulties alike, just like the brook.
(ii) The maid shared the information with Juliette that there was a vacancy for a cook to work in the film with an offer of eight hundred francs. She suggested Juliette to take up the offer.
(iii) The song of the rain is the song of the soul as it portrays the rain as divine. It is shown as the messenger of mercy between two lovers – the field and the clouds.
(iv) Mrs. Bramble refers to herself in the third person while talking to Harold. Harold did not like this as he felt himself like a small child whenever his mother talked to him like this.
(v) The passenger of chair no 9 was the author’s old acquaintance, John A Pescud. Suddenly, he hurled a book to the floor between his chair and the window.

Answer 10.
Yes, I think the convict should have been given a second chance. This is because he was not a thief by intention. The circumstances were such that they forced him to steal. He had stolen food for his ailing wife as he was unable to earn money due to not having a job. However, he was caught and imprisoned, due to which his wife died due to starvation. If the convict had been given a second chance as a noble act from the humanitarian point of view, he would have improved his ways and worked hard to earn the food that he had earlier been forced to steal. He would also have been able to save his wife’s life, thus giving him mental peace. However, what the convict overlooked were the values of honesty and his responsibility towards society. He had no right to steal anything from anybody, even food. He could have begged for it if he did not have money to pay for it.

Or

Yes, I agree that the poet herself is responsible for neglecting her teeth and damaging them. She herself confesses that she had a weakness for sticky and sweet food. After eating all this sticky food, she did not brush her teeth, which caused the teeth to decay and created cavities in them. She also admits her fault of showing no respect towards her teeth by brushing them hurriedly, carelessly and half-heartedly.
The important values we learn from her experience are that we must take responsibility for what we do and how we mould our lives. The consequences of our deeds are our responsibility. Further, we must not make fun of someone wearing false teeth, as one day the same problem may occur with us. Another important lesson we learn from this poem is that we must visit a dentist regularly to keep our teeth healthy and cavity-free.

Long Reading Text (Novel)

Answer 11.
The master horse was listening to Gulliver carefully when he was describing the wars in his country. Gulliver told the master horse that wars take place due to several reasons. Sometimes a war takes place due to ambitions of princes or corruption of ministers, and at other times wars happen for gaining power over the weak. When Gulliver completed his discourse on wars, the master horse asked him to stop and said that the shame of waging war was greater than the danger, because the master horse imagined that battles were fought bare-handed.

It was difficult for him to believe that the Yahoos could kill each other in such great numbers as their flat face prevented them from biting each other. Then Gulliver described about the destructive weapons of wars the nations of Europe possessed.

After listening to the description of the wars and destructive weapons, the master was filled with hatred for the country of Gulliver. The vices of human race that led them to wage wars were scornful to him and he came to detest the whole human race.

Or

Influential Hypocrite Flimnap was the lord high treasurer of Lilliput who harboured a feeling of hatred and enmity against Gulliver. Outwardly, he tried to appear more friendly than he usually was. Flimnap had complained to the king of how Gulliver was costing the state treasury exorbitantly. He was successful in manipulating the king against Gulliver and place the conditions of impeachment officially against Gulliver. He influenced Skyresh Bolgolam to join the conspiracy.

Animosity Towards Gulliver He blamed Gulliver of having relations with his wife and utilised this made-up issue to stimulate the conspiracy theory. So he was successful in insisting on the emperor to take the first possible opportunity to throw Gulliver out of Lilliput. This resulted in a lot of animosity against Gulliver.

Three Men in a Boat

George was fond of playing the banjo, although J writes that he had never learned to play the banjo. He faced too much all-round discouragement from everybody. He tried on two or three evenings to get a little practice, but it was never a success. Harris’ language used to be enough to unnerve any man. When George offered to play the banjo, Harris objected by saying he had a headache. He said he did not feel strong enough to stand it. Moreover, Montmorency would sit and howl steadily right through the performance. George never liked this reaction from Montmorency but Harris said that he had a musical ear and it was George’s banjo playing that made him howl like that. Even later, when George tried to play his banjo, he was discouraged by one and all. His attempts were a great disaster. His landlady objected when he played at home. When he played at night, neighbours called the police. He was arrested and was asked to keep it shut for six months. He grew very disappointed over the whole business and was finally forced to sell it.

Or

Disorganised and Clumsy Harris always reminded the narrator of his Uncle Podger. Both of them readily involved others in actually having any task done. Once Uncle Podger undertook the job of hanging a picture on the wall in which he came out as a very clumsy and inefficient person. All the members of the family stood in attendance when Podger tried to stick a nail in the wall. He struggled hard to hang the picture and even dropped it down.

Pretender Harris too, like Uncle Podger, wanted to take the credit for doing something which he actually did not do. When the three friends decided to make a list of things to be carried for the trip, Harris, instead of doing the work himself, only asked the narrator to bring him a piece of paper and asked George to get him the catalogue of groceries. He also wanted somebody to give him a pencil to write with. Thus Harris, without actually doing anything, pretended to take upon himself the burden of the whole task. Thus, Harris and Uncle Podger resembled each other and were identical in the context of their responses to a situation.

यदि हम इसके विपरीत मान लें 2 + 3√5 कि एक परिमेय संख्या है।
अतः हम ऐसी सहअभाज्य संख्याएँ a तथा b (b ≠ 0) ज्ञात कर सकते हैं कि 2 + 3√5 = \(\frac { a }{ b }\) समीकरण को पुनर्व्यवस्थित करने पर।
चूँकि a तथा b पूर्णांक हैं।
\(\frac { a }{ 3b }\) – \(\frac { 2 }{ 3 }\) एक परिमेय संख्या है अतः √5 एक परिमेय संख्या है जिससे इस तथ्य का विरोधाभास प्राप्त । होता है कि √5 एक अपरिमेय संख्या है।

Reading (20 Marks)

Questions.

Question 1.
Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow. (8)
Coral reefs are warm, clear, shallow ocean habitats that are rich in life. The reef’s massive structure is formed from coral polyps, tiny animals that live in colonies. When coral polyps die, they leave behind a hard, stony, branching structure made of limestone.

There are two types of corals, hard corals and soft corals. Hard corals (like brain coral and elkhorn coral) have hard, limestone skeletons which form the basis of coral reefs. Soft corals (like sea fingers and sea whips) do not build reefs.

Coral reefs develop in shallow warm water usually near land, and mostly in the tropics; corals prefer temperatures between 70° and 85° F (20-30° C). There are coral reefs off the eastern coast of Africa, off the southern coast of India, in the Red Sea, and off the coasts of northeast and northwest Australia and on to Polynesia. There are also coral reefs off the coast of Florida, USA, to the Caribbean, and down to Brazil.

The Great Barrier Reef (off the coast of North-East Australia) is the largest coral reef in the world. It is over 1257 miles (2000 km) long. Many coral reefs are dying. Major threats to coral reefs are water pollution (from sewage and agricultural run off), dredging off the coast, careless collecting of coral specimens and sedimentation (when silt or sand from construction or mining projects muddies the waters of a reef and kills corals, which need light to live).

The underwater coral city is a unique and diverse collection of colourful and weirdly patterned animals. Most of the problems of a city are present: food supply and distribution, that of accommodation and living space, leading to large scale squatting and a shift system, a large floating population, immigration and a balancing force of criminal predators.

The islands are low, merely a metre or two above the sea level, yet they withstand the powerful hurricanes and waves of the sea. As they are encircled by a protective reef, any destruction during an attack by pounding waves is quickly repaired by its microscopic engineers and architects before the next wave comes.

(ii) What are coral reefs? (1)

Question 2.
Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow. (12)
How you can best improve your English depends on where you live and particularly on whether or not you live in an English speaking community. If you hear English spoken every day and mix freely with English speaking people, that is on the whole an advantage. On the other hand, it is often confusing to have the whole language poured over you at once. Ideally, a step-by-step course should accompany a lead-up to this experience. It will also help a great deal if you can easily get the sort of English books in which you are interested.

To read a lot is essential. It is stupid not to venture outside the examination ‘set books’ or the textbooks you have chosen for intensive study. Read as many books in English as you can, not as a duty but for pleasure. Do not choose the most difficult books you find with the idea of listing and learning as many new words as possible. Choose what is likely to interest you and be sure in advance that it is not too hard. You should not have to be constantly looking up new words in the dictionary, for that deadens interest and checks real learning. Look up a word here and there, but as a general policy try to push ahead, guessing what the words mean from the context. It is extensive and not intensive reading that normally helps you to do interesting extra reading and thereby improve your English. You should enjoy the feeling which extensive reading gives of having some command of the language.

As you read, you will become more and more familiar with words and sentence patterns you already know, understanding them better and better as you meet them in more and more contexts, some of which may differ only slightly from others.

Some people say that we cannot learn to speak a language better with the help of a book. To believe this is to believe that the spoken language and the written language are quite different things. This is not so. There is a very great deal in common between the two. In learning the patterns and vocabulary of the written form we are learning to a considerable extent those of the spoken form too. We are, in fact, learning the language and not merely the form of the language.
(i) How can we improve our English? (2)
(ii) What two things should we avoid while trying to learn English language? (2)
(iii) What are the advantages of extensive reading over intensive reading? (2)
(iv) Are the spoken language and written language different? If not, how? (2)
(v) Which word in paragraph 2 means the same as ‘set out’? (1)
(vi) Which word in paragraph 1 means the same as ‘society’? (1)
(vii) The word in paragraph 2 which is synonym of ‘thorough’is (1)
(viii) The word in paragraph 2 which is an antonym of ‘occasionally’ is (1)

Desktop Diet
by Ankita Roy, Class IX-A

People working in offices very often grab a bite of fast food to get rid of their hunger pangs. The meal options comprise of burgers, sandwiches, momos, pizzas and similar snacks. Very frequently, they also gulp down cups of tea or coffee to endure their long hours of working. This is termed as ‘desktop diet’ by doctors and nutritionists. They are urging people to improve such a ‘desktop diet’, meaning all items of food that a person consumes at his/ her workplace. They are saying this because they have observed an alarming rise in ailments like inflated sugar levels, fat deposits and a fluctuating blood pressure due to this.
Thus, it is wise for office goers to prepare meals at home and pack them for taking to the office. If working people want snacks, they should have high fibre snacks. Fibre rich fruits, vegetables or whole grain dishes keep the stomach satiated during the afternoon and a nutritious diet keeps one alert at the workplace throughout the day.

Dear Diary
My uncle works for a news channel. He took me to his production office today as I had a holiday at school. He took me to the studio, which was very big. A lot of people and various electronic machines were working to produce the various programmes telecast by the channel. I am glad that I could experience a live news show. I sat and admired the newsreader’s communication skills as he read the news flashing on the screen in front of him. He was very confident despite being surrounded by so many lights and cameras. I realised that it is a tough job for each one of them working hard to produce even a news item from scratch so that it appears interesting and understandable to the viewers. I really enjoyed the day at my uncle’s office. It was highly informative and motivated me to think of a career in the line of electronic media.
Good night.

We sat in a circle and waited for our teacher. My friend Anita was sitting beside me. All of us were busy completing the problems given by our teacher for the home assignment.

Suddenly Anita poked me and showed me her class test notebook. I saw that she had scored three marks out of fifteen. Within a moment, she wrote a numerical one in front of the number and changed her score. As An*”” mother served us snacks as refreshment, she asked, “What is your score, Anita?” When Anita showed her class test notebook to her mother, she smiled and praised her performance. After an hour of waiting, our teacher rang and informed us that she will not be able to come due to the heavy rain and the next class will be conducted next week. However, she informed Anita’s mother about her marks. When Anita’s mother came to know about the truth, she cross-questioned me. I agreed with Anita’s changed score and remained silent. Anita’s mother scolded both of us for not telling the truth. We felt ashamed of ourselves and promised never to do or allow such things to happen again.

Mysterious Gift

Tina turned 16 yesterday. She had been planning her party from the past two weeks. Her parents and her younger brother were all very excited. Finally, the day came and the party was an enjoyable one. All her friends had a gala time at the party. They danced, played games and ate delicious snacks and slices of a mouth-watering chocolate cake. They had brought gifts for Tina and thought that she would open them after the party.
At night, Tina was opening the gifts one by one, carefully reading the names of the persons who had given them. She noticed a small rectangular box without a name or note. This made her curious. When she opened it she found a photo frame in which she saw her childhood photograph with a girl. She recognised this girl as her childhood friend Shikha.
Tina and Shikha were best friends until 5 years of age, before Shikha’s family shifted outside India. Since then, both the girls had not been in touch with each other. Tina was surprised and felt happy that her old friend had remembered her. At the back of the photo frame was Tina’s current address and phone number. She called Shikha and thanked her for the surprise gift.

These words are spoken to the author by Krishtakka, her grandmother. The author used to narrate to her grandmother every week the story of the novel named Kashi Yatre being serialised in the weekly magazine Karmaveera. However, one week the author’s absence from home due to a marriage in the family made the grandmother helpless, as she could not read the story on her own, being illiterate. So she decided to become independent by learning how to read her mother tongue, Kannada.
She asked the author to teach her Kannada. She proved to be an epitome of determination with her words. She worked hard to achieve her goal and that too within the deadline she had set for herself, the Saraswati Pooja day during Dassara. Even at her old age, she displays the values of determination and hard work to achieve her goal. She serves as an example of achieving her goal through dedication and hard work.

Private Quelch was admired by his teachers and peers for his vast knowledge. He was brilliant, well-read and knowledgeable. However, he had one very disturbing habit. His method of exhibiting his knowledge and stating his views was not in keeping with the discipline of a military camp. He used to do this by interrupting his seniors’ lectures and correcting them publicly, thus insulting them. He appeared to be too overbearing, snobbish and boastful, besides having bad manners. He needed to respect the point of view of others, particularly his seniors and colleagues. Due to his bad habit, on many occasions he insulted his professors by interrupting their lectures. He also publicly corrected their mistakes. The teacher is supposed to be a guide and mentor and he should be treated with the respect due to him. Thus, Private Quelch had no right to be disrespectful to his seniors.

Answer 11.
Gulliver had no hope to leave from Brobdingnag, although he was optimistic about his liberation from there. However, it was by chance that he was able to leave from there. One day, while his nurse was away and he was sleeping in his box by the sea coast, an eagle lifted his box high up in the air and flew • away. But suddenly another eagle attacked it and accidentally the box fell into the sea.
Luckily the strong box did not break. Hence no water seeped into it. Soon Gulliver felt his box being raised and then heard the sound of a cable passing through a ring. He cried for help. This time there was a response and the sailors pulled Gulliver out from his box. The ship was destined for England and thus Gulliver was saved.

Respectful, Kind and Generous The King of Luggnagg has many qualities that will attract the reader. He is very kind, generous, caring, wise and hospitable. He gives Gulliver the highest priority. He enjoys the company of Gulliver. He wants to listen to Gulliver because he is eager to know about Gulliver and his experiences. It shows his desire of collecting information. He also respects a person who is experienced and knowledgeable like Gulliver. He offers Gulliver employment in his court as a mark of giving him respect.

Proud and Whimsical Apart from these qualities, he has a big shortcoming. He is full of pride and whimsical. He makes all those who come to meet him lick the dust off the floor in front of him. This ritual also served another purpose, which was to eliminate his enemies. He did this by sprinkling a poisonous powder on the floor. When the person licked the floor, he was poisoned and died soon. It was nothing less than the arbitrariness of the monarch and it showed his whimsical nature.

Three Men in a Boat

The three friends were sitting in a meadow, about to have lunch. Harris was busy carving the beefsteak pie and asked for a spoon. George and J turned to get a spoon out of the hamper, and when they looked round again, both Harris and the pie had disappeared. J and George could not think of a valid reason for such a strange disappearance. It was an open field and Harris had vanished in thin air with the pie.
While they were mourning his disappearance, they were terrified to see Harris’ head sticking bolt upright among the tall grass. His face was red with anger. He accused the two of doing it on purpose. Harris had apparently been sitting on the verge of a deep ditch. The long grass had hidden it. In leaning back a little, he had fallen into the ditch. Harris said that he has never felt so surprised in all his life as when he first felt himself going, without being able to guess what had happened.
Harris never stopped believing that George and J had planned it all beforehand.

Humorous Hypochondriac Jerome’s habit of reading about different diseases makes him suffer. He is psychologically driven to acknowledge that he is suffering from some disease and he himself confirms his suffering and decides to go to a doctor. He reads about hay fever, typhoid and many other diseases. Every time he reads about the symptoms of the diseases he believes that he is suffering from the same disease. Thus, he is actually a hypochondriac. He even jokes that the prime symptom of his current disease is “a general disinclination to work of any kind”. He perhaps enjoys his habit of visiting a doctor with casual excuses of diseases.

Justifies Laziness The doctor’s prescription also becomes a joke to the narrator. The doctor has advised him to eat and drink well, walk every morning and sleep early every night. It has been his tendency to suffer from laziness when he was a child and he adds humour in justifying that beatings would have worked well instead of medicines. Jerome always casually encounters the doctor in the context of suffering. He with his casual disposition also contributes to the humour in the novel.

Questions.

Question 1.
Read the passage given below.  (8 Marks)
1. Airbus says it has turned the corner after a crisis connected to production problems
and turmoil in the boardroom at its A380 super-jumbo project that has gone on for the past year. On the first day of the Paris air show, Airbus announced a raft of orders. It is competing with Boeing, its American rival, for the title of the largest plane maker in the world. Boeing is expected to reveal the numbers of orders for its 787 Dream liner soon. Airbus orders unveiled on Monday included Qatar Airways confirming a $16bn order for 80 A3 50 Airbus planes and ordering three A3 80 super-jumbos for about $750m. .

2. Boeing and Airbus are also competing for orders from aircraft leasing firms. Orders from these companies – who rank highly among the biggest global buyers of aircraft – are often regarded as an indication of how successful a model will be in the long term. Airbus also secured orders from US Airways that are worth $ lObn for 22 of its A350 jets, 60 A320s and ten of its A330-200 wide-body planes.

3. A few months ago, Airbus unveiled a major cost-cutting programme aiming to reduce the workforce in Europe by 10000, as well as announcing a group restructuring. “I can tell you with full confidence that Airbus is back and fully back, as you have started noting yesterday as demonstrated by our first day announcements,” said Mr Gallois on the second day of the air show.

4. However, Boeing also announced a deal with General Electric (GE) on the show’s first day. GE’s commercial aviation services placed an order for six 777 Boeing freighters valued at around $1.4bn, to be delivered in the last quarter of 2008.

5. A Wall Street Journal website report, quoting the Delta operating chief yesterday said that Delta Air Lines were on the verge of ordering as many as 125 Boeing 787 jetliners by the end of this year. However, a spokesman for Delta later said that it had been having conversations “with several aircraft makers” and that “no final decision” had been made on future fleet purchases. (347 words)

Question 2.
2. Read the passage given below. (12)
1. These days it is not unusual to see people listening to music or using their electronic gadgets while crossing busy roads, driving their vehicles or travelling on public transport, regardless of the risks involved. I have often wondered why they take such risks: is it because they want to exude a sense of independence, or is it that they want to tell the world to stop bothering them? Or is it that they just want to show how cool they are?

2. Whether it is a workman or an executive, earphones have become an inseparable part of Our lives, sometimes even leading to tragic-comic situations. The other day, an electrician had come to our house to fix something.
We told him in detail what needed to be done. But after he left, I found that the man had done almost nothing. It later turned out that he could not hear our directions clearly because he had his earphones on.

3. Hundreds of such earphone addicts commute by the Delhi Metro every day. While one should not begrudge anyone for their moments of privacy or their love for music, the fact is, ‘iPod oblivion’ can sometimes be very dangerous. Recently, I was travelling with my wife in Delhi Metro.

4. Since the train was approaching the last station, there weren’t too many passengers. In our compartment, other than us, there were only two women sitting on the other side of the aisle. And then suddenly, I spotted a duffel bag lying on a seat.

5. The bomb scare lasted for several minutes. Then suddenly, a youth emerged from nowhere and picked up the bag. When we tried to stop him, he looked at us, surprised. Then he took off his earpieces, lifted the bag, and told us that the bag belonged to him and that he was going to get off at the last station. We were stunned, but recovered in time to ask him where he was all this while? His answer: he was in the compartment, leaning against the door, totally immersed in the music. He had no clue about what was going on around him. When he got off, earplugs in his hand, we could hear strains of the song. (368 words)

Dear Diary
My grandfather is no more. I feel so dazed with my grandfather’s death that I can’t express my feelings. What a great human being he wasl He was a gem of humanism – cooperative, ready to help the needy, and also soft-hearted. He taught me the values of sympathy, love, affection, selflessness and compassion. He was well read and used to often quote from his reading to prove his point. He used to narrate stories to me when I was younger. I loved him so much as he constantly supported me whenever I needed him. I feel a great loss in his death. Though, he is no more to be my side in physical yet he is alive in my heart and guide me in difficult situation with his valuable advices he had taught me.
It has created a vacuum in my life.

Or

This year I have celebrated my birthday the way I wanted to. My parents arrange a grand party for my friends. I have made the invitation card for my friends and my mother helped me to make invitation cards and to fill them up with names. She made a list of all the friends I wanted to call. Thereafter she took me to the market and bought balloons and streamers, masks and caps, etc to decorate the house with. We arranged the masks and caps in such a way that each friend of mine would pick one of his choices.
My father arranged some games for them and he became the referee for all our games. He arranged musical chairs, passing the parcel etc, and all the children enjoyed themselves. We had our cold drinks after the cake was cut by me. The cake was in the shape of a beautiful house with colourful fencing and big chunks of chocolate. I was drowned in gifts once my friends left and I went to bed with the satisfaction of having enjoyed the best birthday party of my life.

Answer 4.
A few days ago, I hag to travel alone to Ahmedabad by train and so I went to Mumbai Central station to board the train. As the incoming train was late, I waited on the platform. Finding me alone, a woman in a white saree approached me. She spoke very affectionately to me’and persuaded me to accompany her to the refreshment room for lunch. She reminded me very much of my long dead mother.

In the refreshment room I met an old classmate of mine having food with his mother. I had not met him after my mother’s death nine years ago. When I introduced myself to my classmate’s mother, the lady accompanying me introduced herself as my mother. Though this was a surprise for me, I did not object, as I felt very comfortable with her. I addressed her as ‘Ma’ infront of the others.

Soon, there was an announcement that our train would leave after 45 minutes so we finished our meal quickly and went back to the platform. The incoming train was just pulling into the station. As the old lady was also going to Ahmedabad, I had a wonderful journey in her company. It has been the most memorable day of my life after my mother passed away.

Or

Buddy is Shaurya’s constant companion. He met him in a very unusual way. It was a sunny morning in the month of April. Shaurya was on an early morning stroll in the neighbourhood park. He was, as usual, completing his round of the park when suddenly he heard a low whimpering sound coming from a nearby bush. When he peeped inside, he saw a very cute small puppy. Its leg was injured and it was in great pain. He pulled it out and immediately took it to a nearby veterinary doctor. The doctor treated the puppy and cleaned its wound. Shaurya went back to the park and dropped the puppy where he had found him amidst the bushes. But to his surprise, the puppy followed him to his house. Shaurya’s mother did not like dogs but as the puppy was following him, he could not help but take the puppy inside and gave some milk to the puppy. Initially, Shaurya’s mother was not happy but the cute puppy wagged its tail very adorably at the mother.

Somehow Shaurya convinced his mother that he would look after the puppy and she need not worry about it. Shaurya named the puppy ‘Buddy’ and took it every day to the park in case anyone wanted to claim it, but no one did so. Soon the puppy became very friendly with Shaurya.

(iii) The poet’s viewpoint is that we may have different religions or castes, different skin colours, or we may speak different languages, but these differences do not matter, as we are all human beings.
(iv) The destined end of all human beings is that they will finally lie in the earth that they walk upon.

Answer 9.

(ii) The ‘holy man’ who blessed Santosh’s mother was surprised as her grandmother wanted him to bless Santosh’s mother for giving birth to a baby girl instead of a baby boy. This was surprising for him as all others wanted to be blessed by him for giving birth to a boy.

Answer 10.

‘Change is the law of nature’. Everything has to change with the passage of time the only thing that is permanent is the change itself.

In the lesson, Kezia, the Little girl, initially used to be afraid of her father as he would often scold her. Once due to her mother’s illness, she had to be looked after by her father who would fondly take her in arms. He also laid down beside her and tried to narrate a story or two. All this made Kezia realise that her father was not bad or rude. Even he had a kind and loving heart but for the circumstances, he could not express it frequently.

Therefore, it can be inferred from the lesson that circumstances force people to change or atleast control their behaviour, nature, attitude or overall personality. In general, no one is purely good or completely bad, it is rather time that influences one’s conduct.

Or

Some people lack basic human values. They do not want to help anybody without self-interest. They always want something in return. One goes to a temple or a church or to a Guru just because one wants something in return. The lady in the poem was a greedy woman. If she had known about Saint Peter and his power, she would have offered him her entire stock of cakes. However, she would have asked for some favours from him in return as she would know about his powers. But her unfriendly and greedy nature makes Saint Peter angry. He changed her into a woodpecker, which will always need to bore into hard dry wood with her beak to find food. Though, he maintains his cool most of the time but the selfish lady was cursed by him for being ungenerous.
Hence, the poem teaches us that one must not be greedy or selfish. We should always help the needy.

Answer 11.
Prashant shows the true leadership qualities. He helped the people of Ersama and motivates them for self help.
I think, young people can surely get together to help those affected during natural calamities. Being energetic and enthusiastic, youngsters can carry out difficult tasks very easily. They have the potential and capability to lead people. In times of floods or cyclones, they can also help to clean the surroundings of filth, dirt and dead bodies and can help to arrange food and shelter for the homeless. Living in the internet dominated era, we (young people) can ask for volunteers through social networking sites to come forward for the noble cause of helping the victims. Losing someone in a calamity is always painful, so we should help them to come out of the emotional trauma by proper counselling and therapy. We should try as much as we can to console them so they can live a normal life as early as possible.
Or
There are certain things in life, mere thought of which is frightening and bone chilling. Separation of a child from his/her parents seems to top the list of such scary thoughts. For days such a child might not care about food, one of the most basic needs, forget anything else like shelters, career or luxuries. The lesson clearly highlights this aspect of a lost child who instantly refuses to have the choicest of the offers made by a humble and noble stranger. The story in the lesson ends on a confusing note whether the lost child and his parents could re-unite or not. But on closely observing, it can be assumed that they would have re-united for a kind and understanding man had found the child who was constantly trying to console the child besides offering various things. Efforts of such a devoted person hardly go in vain so I would sincerly hope and believe in the happy reunion of their poor but lovely family. Parents are the epitome of love and affection and a child needs them in the difficult situation. Hence, re-union of them would be the perfect climax of the novel.
