EX.NO. READING COMPREHENSION I

Sixty years ago, on the evening of August 14, 1947, a few hours before Britain’s Indian
Empire was formally divided into the nation-states of India and Pakistan, Lord Louis
Mountbatten and his wife, Edwina, sat down in the viceregal mansion in New Delhi to
watch the latest Bob Hope movie, “My Favorite Brunette.” Large parts of the
subcontinent were descending into chaos, as the implications of partitioning the Indian
Empire along religious lines became clear to the millions of Hindus, Muslims, and
Sikhs caught on the wrong side of the border. In the next few months, some twelve
million people would be uprooted and as many as a million murdered. But on that night
in mid-August the bloodbath—and the fuller consequences of hasty imperial retreat—
still lay in the future, and the Mountbattens probably felt they had earned their
evening’s entertainment. Mountbatten, the last viceroy of India, had arrived in New
Delhi in March 1947, charged with an almost impossible task. Irrevocably enfeebled by
the Second World War, the British belatedly realized that they had to leave the
subcontinent, which had spiralled out of their control through the nineteen-forties. But
plans for brisk disengagement ignored messy realities on the ground.

Mountbatten had a clear remit to transfer power to the Indians within fifteen months.
Leaving India to God, or anarchy, as Mohandas Gandhi, the foremost Indian leader,
exhorted, wasn’t a political option, however tempting. Mountbatten had to work hard to
figure out how and to whom power was to be transferred. The dominant political party,
the Congress Party, took inspiration from Gandhi in claiming to be a secular
organization, representing all four hundred million Indians. But many Muslim
politicians saw it as a party of upper-caste Hindus and demanded a separate homeland
for their hundred million co-religionists, who were intermingled with non-Muslim
populations across the subcontinent’s villages, towns, and cities. Eventually, as in
Palestine, the British saw partition along religious lines as the quickest way to the exit.
But sectarian riots in Punjab and Bengal dimmed hopes for a quick and dignified
British withdrawal and boded ill for India’s assumption of power. Not surprisingly,
there were some notable absences at the Independence Day celebrations in New Delhi
on August 15th. Gandhi, denouncing freedom from the imperial rule as a “wooden loaf,
” had remained in Calcutta, trying, with the force of his moral authority, to stop Hindus
and Muslims from killing each other. His great rival Muhammad Ali Jinnah, who had
fought bitterly for a separate homeland for Indian Muslims, was in Karachi, trying to
hold together the precarious nation-state of Pakistan. Nevertheless, the significance of
the occasion was not lost on many. While the Mountbattens were sitting down to their
Bob Hope movie, India’s constituent assembly was convening in New Delhi. The
moment demanded grandiloquence, and Jawaharlal Nehru, Gandhi’s closest disciple
and soon to be India’s first Prime Minister, provided it. “Long years ago, we made a
tryst with destiny, ” he said. “At the stroke of the midnight hour, while the world
sleeps, India will awaken to life and freedom. A moment comes, which comes but
rarely in history when we step out from the old to the new when an age ends, and when
the soul of a nation, long suppressed, finds utterance.” Posterity has enshrined this
speech, as Nehru clearly intended. But today his quaint phrase “tryst with destiny”
resonates ominously, so enduring has been the political and psychological scars of
partition. The souls of the two new nation-states immediately found utterance in brutal
enmity. In Punjab, armed vigilante groups, organized along religious lines and incited
by local politicians, murdered countless people, abducting and raping thousands of
women. Soon, India and Pakistan were fighting a war—the first of three—over the
disputed territory of Kashmir.

Gandhi, reduced to despair by the seemingly endless cycle of retaliatory mass murders
and displacement, was shot dead in January 1948, by a Hindu extremist who believed
that the father of the Indian nation was too soft on Muslims. Jinnah, racked with
tuberculosis and overwork, died a few months later, his dream of a secular Pakistan
apparently buried with him. Many of the seeds of postcolonial disorder in South Asia
were sown much earlier, in two centuries of direct and indirect British rule, but, a book,
after the book has demonstrated, nothing in the complex tragedy of partition was
inevitable. In “Indian Summer” (Henry Holt; $30), Alex von Tunzelmann pays
particular attention to how negotiations were shaped by an interplay of personalities.
Von Tunzelmann goes on a bit too much about the Mountbattens’ open marriage and
their connections to various British royals, toffs, and fops, but her account, unlike those
of some of her fellow British historians, isn’t filtered by nostalgia. She summarizes
bluntly the economic record of the British overlords, who, though never as rapacious
and destructive as the Belgians in the Congo, damaged agriculture and retarded
industrial growth in India through a blind faith in the “invisible hand” that supposedly
regulated markets. Von Tunzelmann echoes Edmund Burke’s denunciation of the East
India Company when she terms the empire’s corporate forerunner a “beast” whose “the
only object was money”; and she reminds readers that, in 1877, the year that Queen
Victoria officially became Empress of India, a famine in the south killed five million
people even as the Queen’s viceroy remained adamant that famine relief was a
misguided policy. Politically, too, British rule in India was deeply conservative,
limiting Indian access to higher education, industry, and the civil service. Writing in the
New York Tribune in the mid-nineteenth century, Karl Marx predicted that British
colonials would prove to be the “unconscious tool” of a “social revolution” in a
subcontinent stagnating under “Oriental despotism.” As it turned out, the British, while
restricting an educated middle class, empowered a multitude of petty Oriental despots.
(In 1947, there were five hundred and sixty-five of these feudatories, often called
maharajas, running states as large as Belgium and as small as Central Park.

EX.NO.2 LISTENING COMPREHENSION

When a society undergoes rapid social change, its religion is likely to be affected. At
sometimes, people may feel disillusioned, or dissatisfied, their conservative, established
religion may be incapable of changing to accommodate their new needs. Under these
circumstances, which may be associated with revitalization, a prophet – a charismatic
leader, usually male, who offers solution in times of extreme social unrest – may emerge.
A prophet is typically a person who has undergone some intense spiritual
experience: perhaps a spirit has shown him new truths and new ways of behaving,
or urged him to return to traditional ways. As a result of this experience, the
prophet usually feels he has a mission to fulfill among his fellows, and if he is
convincing he may develop a following.

The charismatic prophets who emerged among the Native Americans of the Great
Plains during the last decades of the nineteenth century are illustrative. [ ] At the time,
Plains groups were undergoing cultural deprivation. [ ] White people had seized their
land and herded them onto reservations.[ ] Alcoholism, measles, and whooping cough,
introduced by whites, had killed thousands. The relentless westbound expansion of white
pioneers had left massacres and broken peace treaties in its wake, and Native Americans
were growing increasingly frustrated and desperate. [ ]
In this context, a series of charismatic Native Americans prophets emerged,
predicting that-if people would only follow them-the whites would be wiped out, the
bison would return, lands would be recovered, sickness and death would disappear, dead
kinsmen would be restored to life, and everlasting prosperity and happiness would reign.
[ ] All that was needed to bring about the millennium was that people have faith, pray,
and repeatedly perform a ritual called the Ghost dance. The ghost dancing was widely
practiced, but to no avail.[ ]
The Jesus of the Christian religion, a man who broke away from religious
orthodoxy during a time of social upheaval, is another example of a prophet. Jesus
persuaded people to give up their ways of life and become his lifelong disciples. After his
death, the church he founded continued under the leadership of one of his followers,
Peter, and eventually became an institution.

1 .What is the best title for the passage?

[ ] A history of religion
[✓ ] The origin of Religion
[ ] The birth of a Prophet
[ ] The need for Religion

2. All of the following may cause the need for prophet EXCEPT
[ ] famine
[ ] pollution
[✓ ] an economic crisis
[ ] natural disasters
3. The accommodate is closest in meaning to
[ ] understand
[ ] listen
[✓ ] satisfy
[ ] recognize

4. The passage suggests that prophets

Aravindh:
Youth participation in politics is crucial for creating a dynamic,
forward-thinking political environment that addresses current and future
challenges. Despite obstacles, empowering young people in politics can lead to
more inclusive, innovative, and diverse governance.
Kolappan:

Hi, In my opinion, a lot of the youth spoils because of social media. It plays a
crucial role. Youth is attracted by Instagram and Twitter. In Instagram, what they
tweet means they only roast the politicians. So Youth isn't attracted to politics.
Youth in politics means Youth is a new generation. They have new thoughts to
implement and they only the future. So encourage the youth with cheerfulness. If
we encourage them they lead our society strong and make their life beautiful.
Thank you.

Nithish Kumar:
The term youth in politics means the participation
of youth or younger generation of this country or contribution in politics.
Today's youth are getting very well educated about politics and are
enthusiastic towards participating in political events, and they are even
aware of the social conditions and circumstances. If given a chance or
allowed them to participate I believe they will rule the country.

Naveen:
 Good morning everyone,
Firstly, it is great to become a youth politician but it could in their own way
not by any influence and they should have the qualities to become a leader,
and also the intention should be positive and good.

Saibarani:
Youth in politics is more important to the country because they have the
courage to face any situation in an efficient way.
But nowadays politicians are old people and then their children but do not
encourage the new people, so they are not solving the youth problem like
establishing new companies, giving new projects, etc.
So, changes will implemented when youth is in politics.

Abinesh :

My opinion is, youths should come to politics. Because they have the power of
thinking in a creative manner also they will lead the people in powerful ways. For
example: During the Chennai flood, most of them are youths only who helped and
served food for those who were suffering. Not that I'm saying, this is the only
thing can relate to them. No, Beyond this there are lot of people like this who can
lead, serve, etc.

Conclusion:
Youth involvement in politics is essential for building a more inclusive and
progressive society. Young people bring fresh ideas, energy, and a commitment
to change that can help address the challenges of today and tomorrow. By
empowering youth to lead, we ensure a brighter, more dynamic future for all.

SAIBARANI:
First of all, I want to say that the reason why many Indians fail to
win medals is that we need to change our education system. When I was in 5th
standard, we had two physical education (PE) periods, but by the time I reached
9th standard, we had only one PE period. This shows that our Indian schools don't
prioritize sports. Instead, they focus on extra classes to help students score higher
marks. Do any schools conduct extra classes to guide sports students? Suppose a
student gets selected for a state-level competition by some luck. In that case,
politics often take over, and only those with money can participate at the national
or Olympic level. We are missing out on real talent.

NITHISH:
First and for most, the problem that needs to be addressed is the lack of
encouragement from the government's side. Economic assistance should be
provided to those who cannot afford the huge cost of training. Hence, if proper
encouragement from the government is made available, the parents would also not
be apprehensive about letting their children take a carrer of their choice.

GUNASEELAN:
This clearly shows how far India is behind in sports even though our Indian
have got the required capacity to snatch medals. If you look at the scenario today
many children with astitute sports talents have been masked by politics and lack
of support. Even the top medal winners residing in India has not been given
proper support. There are many marykoms, many abinav bindras out there. But
yet without Government support.

NAVEEN:
 Our country gives importance only to one sport and that is cricket. Cricket
takes all the fans and there remains no one to encourage or motivate our athletes.
Politics has also degraded our sports culture. In our country, deserving people get
less chance to flash their talent. Also corruption is one of the reason.
Our sportsmen don't get better platform or infrastructure for practice.
Cricket is like a religion for our people still we see lot of politics even there too.
Our government need to take serious steps towards the enhancement of sports by
providing opportunities and better platforms yo us.
Let's hope for the best in coming years.

ARAVINDH:
The Indian sportsperson performance at the Olympics was very
regrettable. Due to many problems, India lagging in sports that are funding,
sponsorship and training facilities. Therefore, In order to curb this problem, we
have to create an awareness about sports from school days. Teachers not only
encourage the education but also encourage the sports and talented children. The
government also takes the responsibility of the funds and talented sportspersons to
prove their talent in international sports events.

ABINESH:
Firstly the population is not in a matter of this kind of
information because all depends upon the enhancing of talents in national level.
Parents should allow the students to learn some sports/games so that they know
something about the game, we never expect everyone to participate in Olympics
and their conducting way. Mainly every one of must supports them, encourage
them rather than knowing only their results and negatives.
Conclusion:

Reaching the milestone of ‘Two Billion and One Bronze’ stands as a

testament to continuous dedication, resilience, and the pursuit of excellence.

This journey symbolizes not just a numeric achievement but a deeper

commitment to progress and the enduring value of each individual

contribution.
