Unseen Passage –

Q.1 was overwhelmed with gratuitous advice. Well-meaning yet ignorant friends
thrust their opinions into unwilling ears. The majority of them said I couldn’t do
without meat in the cold climate. I would catch consumption. Mr Z went to
England and caught it on account of his foolhardiness. Others said I might do
without flesh but without wine I could not move. I would be numbed with cold.

One went so far as to advise me to take eight bottles of whisky, for I should want
them after leaving Aden. Another wanted me to smoke, for his friend was obliged
to smoke in England. Even medical men, those who had been to England told the
same tale. I replied that I would try my best to avoid all these things, but if they
were found to be absolutely necessary I did not know what to do. I may here
mention that my aversion to meat was not so strong then as it is now. I was even
betrayed into taking meat about six or seven times at the period when I allowed
my friends to think for me. But in the steamer, my ideas began to change. I
thought I should not take meat on any account. My mother, before consenting to
my departure, had exacted a promise from me not to take meat. So, I was bound
not to take it, if only for the sake of the promise. The fellow passengers in the
steamer began to advise us (the friend who was with me and myself) to try it. —
M K Gandhi.

Q.1 Read the passage and answer the questions that follow.

1. Social networking implies the use of internet programs to make connections

with friends, family, classmates, customers and clients. Social networking can
occur for social or business purposes through sites such as Facebook, Twitter,
LinkedIn, etc. Social networks are as old as the internet technology that was first
developed in the 1960s. After 2003, the social networks became very popular.
Currently, internet users have more than two hundred social networks to choose
from.

2. Social networking has many advantages. The biggest advantage is that you can
stay in touch with your friends and family from all around the world. These social
networks can be used to improve our social awareness. Students can explore
topics that they are interested in by using online social networking. This can be
done by interacting with people from different parts of the world. Teachers,
students and professionals can also create discussion forums, or write blogs and
posts to explore different and wide-ranging topics.

3. Social networking takes place online where people meet and share ideas and
experiences. Many companies use social networks such as Twitter and Facebook
to connect with customers and clients. This can create opportunities for
relationship-building, brand-building, publicity and promotions.

4. However, there are several disadvantages of social networking sites as well.

Cybercrime! and cyber bullying? have increased because it is hard to identify the
offender and it is almost impossible to keep full-time surveillance in such a wide
network. As people spend more time on social networking sites, they experience
less face-to-face interaction which also makes them more dependent on devices.
Addiction to online networking is yet another disadvantage. Fifty per cent of
people between the age of 25 and 35 years admitted that they are so attached to
social networks that they even use them during working hours.

A.1. Answer the following questions very briefly.

Question 1.
What are the three chief uses of social networking?
…………………………………………………………………………..
…………………………………………………………………………..
Question 2.
When did social networking take off?
…………………………………………………………………………..

Atithi Devo Bhavah. To make visitors to the city feel welcome during the
Commonwealth Games, India Tourism Development Corporation (ITDC) is set to
train taxi and auto drivers, CISF personnel posted at monuments, dhaba owners,
hotel staff etc. Participants will be taught English as well as courtesy and ways to
communicate with tourists. At present, there is a shortage of trained guides in the
city and with Commonwealth Games drawing close, the issue has to be addressed
promptly.

With hundreds of historical sites to visit and each monument boasting its own
unique history, foreign nationals are often left to fend for themselves and depend
on tourist books and brochures for information. Language is another problem.
Quite a contrast to facilities offered in tourist sites in western countries, where
trained guides-proficient in several languages-are easily available to aid visitors
apart from group-guided trips at regular intervals. Although the Archeological
Survey of India (ASI) plans to introduce audio guide services in five languages at
some world heritage sites our experts point that not a single monument or tourist
place in the city has an interpretation centre where tourists can come and get all
information pertaining to a particular site. ASI is also in the process of bringing
out more brochures and guides for foreign visitors in the city. Experts say such
facilities are crucial if the government wants to promote Delhi as a ‘heritage city’.
Various agencies like INTACH are also involved in the plans.

Under ITDC’s plans, etiquette training for the Games will also be provided to
residents who offer rooms to foreigners under Delhi government’s bed and
breakfast scheme. “House-owners will be given hospitality related training and a
brief of Indian tourism scenario. Most visitors generally question their hosts on
information about the city so they will be provided information on the golden
triangle- Delhi, Agra and Jaipur as well as where tourists should go visiting in
Delhi,” said an official.

Q.1Read the questions given below and write the option you consider the most
appropriate in your answer sheet.

1: What are the initiatives to be taken up by the India Tourism Development

Corporation to make the visitors feel welcome during the Commonwealth Games?
(i) training of drivers, CISF personals, dhaba owners and hotel staff.
(ii) promoting the sale of tourist books and brochures.
(iii) arranging audio cassettes and tapes on tourism.
(iv) constructing more bed and breakfast homes.

2: How have the western countries managed to offer aid and better facilities to
their tourists?
(i) by providing good tourist books and brochures.
(ii) by providing well-behaved and courteous guides.
(iii) by training guides in several languages and group-guided trips at regular
intervals.
(iv) by allowing foreign nationals to fend for themselves.

16
3: Apart from the guides and the guided tours, Archeological Survey of India has
expressed the need for establishing ______ at historical sites to help tourists.
(i) interpretation centres. (ii) rehabilitation centres.
(iii) cessation centres. (iv) training centres.

4: What steps have been taken by ASI to promote Delhi as a heritage site?
(i) making brochures very informative and training the residents.
(ii) bringing out more brochures and involving other agencies in planning and
visitor management.
(iii) offering tourists all sources of comfort for their stay and visits to historical
sites.
(iv) providing owners of bed and breakfast homes information about Delhi, Agra
and Jaipur.

5: _______ are to be provided to residents who offer rooms to foreigners under

ITDC’s plan.
(i) comfortable stay, friendly and hospitable treatment
(ii) etiquette training, hospitality treatment
(iii) better tourist guides and interpretation centres
(iv) visits to the golden triangle cities.

cartoon manages in a pointed one-liner. Little wonder then, that the first thing most
of us like to see when we pickup a newspaper is the cartoon. Simple though it may
seem, making a cartoon is an art that requires a combination of hard work, training
and a good sense of humour. Cartoonists say that the cartoons that make us laugh
the most are in fact the cartoons that are hardest to make. Even celebrated
cartoonists like R.K.Laxman admit that making a cartoon is not a piece of cake.
Laxman says he has to wait for over six hours, which includes spending a lot of time
scanning newspapers and television channels before any idea strikes him.

So how does one become a cartoonist? Which of us has the talent to make it? How
can we master the rib-tickling strokes and the witty one-liners? How can we make
people smile or laugh? There are few colleges or schools for cartoonists. Most
cartoonists come from art colleges, while some learn the craft on their own. Most
established cartoonists are of the view that no institute can teach you to make a
cartoon. “You can pick up the craft, you may learn to sketch and draw in institutes,
but no one can teach anyone how to make a good cartoon,” says Uday Shanker, a
cartoonist with Navbharat Times. While basics, like drawing and sketching can be
learnt in an art college, and are important skills, these alone, do not make a good
cartoonist. Because it’s a question of one’s creativity and sense of humour; two
qualities one simply may not have. The advice established cartoonists give is that
just because you can sketch, don’t take it for granted that you will become a
cartoonist.

Read the questions given below and write the option you consider the most
appropriate in your answer sheet.

1: What, according to Laxman, is the challenge in creating a good cartoon?

(i) waiting for the right thought (ii) browsing newspapers to emerge. and television.

Comprehension Passage

A.1. Read the following passage and answer the question that follow:
Cotswold country is beautiful for all seasons but last summer, the lush green
woods and the rolling meadows seem to acquire a near picture postcard quality.
The endless countryside, stretched out on both sides of the road to Stratford-on
Avon, was captivating but the quiet beauty of the great bard’s ancestral village
claimed its own share of mindspace.
The idea of taking an hour-long detour to the tiny, if historic, village needed some
sustained and determined hardsell on my part. As we pulled into Stratford with
its cobbled side-walks, stone-faced houses with sloping roofs and lace-curtained
windows, it almost felt like nothing much had changed in four centuries. Except
perhaps tiered parking lots and streams of tourists.
Back at the humble abode of John and Mary Shakespeare on Henley Street, the
queues were beginning to get serpentine. Flanked by a well stocked museum
which displayed, among other things, Shakespeare’s wedding document, his first
manuscript and his will-the house is an antiquarian’s delight. From the rough
furniture to the stone-flagged floor, the narrow winding stairway and low roof, the
candle stubs in the corner and the hand-dyed furnishings all over, the ambience
is so Elizabethan that for a second I was transported back in time. The most
uniquely representative part of the house through was the kitchen with its rough
leaf of bread on the table and a strung-up chicken, reminiscent of crowded and
noisy family suppers.
Interestingly, the house is embellished with hand-painted wall hangings that
doubled up as wallpaper. As the friendly guide explained, the aristocracy had
elaborate tapestries woven for their stately homes. The less well to-do, like the
Shakespeares for instance, made do with painted copies of the same designs. In
fact the wall hanging in the parlour downstairs was copied from a tapestry in
Oxfordshire. Of course the house of Henley Street, historians say, is not the
original one in which young William Shakespeare bought at different times.
Illustrations of it are based on the 18th century water colour by Richard Greene
made after the two buildings were merged into one. There are no renderings of the
original buildings.
For Indian tourists, there’s something else that should be of interest on Henley
Street. Overlooking the well-laid-out English garden is a stone bust of
Rabindranath Tagore, donated to the Shakespeare Trust by the government of
West Bengal. Political and literary correctness aside, the Bengali Nobel laureate
seemed quietly at peace with the bard. Kind of appropriate, don’t you think?

A.1.1 Complete the following statements on the basis of your reading of the
passage:
(a) Writer and her friends visited Cotswold country because______________
(b) The author is reminded of olden days by _________________________
(c) ________________ are the signs of modernity in Stratford.
(d) Décor of the house is remarkable because of ______________________
(e) Indian tourist are attracted to Henley Street because_________________

A.1.2. Find out words from the passage meaning the same as:( 3 marks)
(a) belonging to one’s grandparents.
(b) person who collects/sells old and valuable objects.
20
(c) make something beautiful by adding decorations.

Q. 2 Write a letter to the Mayor of your city complaining about the poor and
unkempt condition of the local library.
