Q.1 Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions:
The pressure of rapid population growth, especially in the Third World,
represents the biggest major strategic threat to the global water system. In many parts
of the world, groundwater is being extracted from aquifers at rates that far exceed the
ability of nature to refill, or recharge, them. Yet because these underground reservoirs
are out of sight, they remain out of mind until they begin to dry up or until the ground
above them begins to sink or 'subside' California's Sacramento River delta, which
supplies the canal system known as the California Aqueduct with half its water, is
sinking about three inches each year, perhaps because it is getting less sediment. As a
result this area- which already had to be protected by a network of levees from being
flooded by the ocean- is becoming much more vulnerable to the consequences of the
kind of earthquake common in the adjacent earthquake zone.

The various five year plans have, from time to time, laid emphasis on the
restructuring of public health schemes and catering to the nutritional needs of the
people. The approach paper to the 12th five year plan (2012 to 2017) is also estimated
to focus on the recast of existing public health schemes for achieving better results.
The working group constituted for the plan comprises officials from the Health
Ministry representatives of business chambers and Planning Commission Members.
At a recent meeting of the working group, it was unanimously agreed that there was a
huge dearth of doctors in the public health sector, and the doctors trained through
expensive private education route would never willingly go in for primary health care
needs. Therefore, a massive expansion of medical education was essential to improve
primary health care and to make it affordable for the masses.
Stress was also laid on addressing the nutritional needs of the people. Mr.
Binayak Sen and Ms. Syeda Hameed, two prime members of the working group, said
the fact that nutrition was an integral part of health and it needed to be addressed
urgently . Mr. Sen has spent a large part of his life treating malaria among tribal in
Chattisgarh. According to him, the body mass index of an average tribal individual
was below 18.5. This proved that the food grain distribution per family was not
adequate and it needed to be supplemented with pulses and oil for a complete diet.

Ans. 2
a) No it was not unfortunate for mathilde to have married Loisel, was a simple man. He
was caring and loving. He was cool enough to compromise with all sorts of adverse
situations. He was sympathetic to his wife and understood her sentiments well. When
mathilde lost the necklace he made all efforts to find it. Later he also overstrained
himself to bear the tragic turn of life. Mathilde invited her ruin not because of her
husband but because of her ambitions to become rich. It was her high feeling and
show off nature that made her borrow a jewellery that caused all the trouble.
b) "Dream Children : A Reverie" is an outburst of a flow of imagination of Charles
Lamp was called the prince of English essayists. He wrote his essay when he was
nearing fifty. As his life was not at all happy and comfortable he towards the end of
his life has expressed his dreams which couldn't be fulfilled. He has suffered a lot in
his life. He himself was lame. His elder brother whom he loved much, died in great
pain. He missed him much because he usually carried him on his back. In his youth
lamb had a disappointing love affair. He was a bachelor He was living in letter
concliness. Though he wanted a family and children but they were denied to him in
his actual life. In this essay he is dreaming of having two children on his both sided
behaving like his real children. Although the story has created a moving life situation
which has all the elements of a lyric. Thesis a flow which makes one completely
engrossed with the story.
c) 'The last ride together' is a dramatic monologue and it show drowning at his best in
the handling of this poetic form. It has also been called a dramatic lyric because it is
not an expression of his own personal emotions, but that of an imagined character. It
is spoken by a lover who loved his lady over a long period of time and who after
making him wait for so long. Finally rejected him, and turned to another person. The
lover then prayed to her to accept two requests of his. First that she should remember
his love for her and secondly that she should come with him for a last ride together.
To his great joy the lady consented.
The entire poem is a dramatic monologue. The lover is expressing his
emotions actually in front of none. He seems to be talking to himself in loneliness. He
analyzes his own courting and persuasion of his beloved and its ultimate result. But
instead of getting disheartened over his miserable failure he finds a consolation in the
consent of his lady love for going on a last ride with him. The sheer imagination of
proximity fills him with thrill and sense of fulfillment.
d) The essay "Umbrella Morals" is a satire on the modern culture where people have lost
their moral conscience. They do not care for others trouble they do wrong knowingly
they play hid and seek with their own conscience. The author give many instances he
says that such type of people take other umbrellas made of silk and leave their own
cotton umbrellas in exchange. They are not to be found out by others. Quite
impeccable people who ordinarily seem unspotted from the world are afflicted with
umbrella morals. These people would never put their hands in another pocket, or
forge a check or rob a till not even if they had the chance.
Ans.3
a) The poet has personified Autumn in different forms when the poet has presented him
as a harvester he is shown sitting carelessly in the field. His hair is lifted by the
winnowing wind sometimes he is in sound sleep on a half reaped furrow. He is
drowned with the fume of poppies while his look spares the Swath with its twined
flowers.
b) Einstein was a peculiar child right from the beginning of his career. His views were
different from others. He hated school education his view. It was not a proper place
for learning. It hamper a child's natural growth. He had no interest in learning
historical facts. When his history teacher asked him a historical date he smartly
replied that he did not remember it. He loved music and science based books, but had
no interest in his prescribed syllabus But he was never disrespectful to any teacher
after all he was a genius.
c) In this lesson, the author says that the young generation is the future of the nation and
is responsible for the all round development of it, The youths can render their services
in many ways to repay their debt to the nation. They can keep our country safe from
external attacks, can spread knowledge among the illiterate, can eradicate, corruption,
pettiness, nepotism from land . They can spread the message of unity, peace and
harmony. They have to work hard for the maintenance and strengthening of freedom.
d) "My Father Travels" is a touching poem by 'Dilip Chitre', highlighting the ironies of
modern civilization. It captures the predicament of an aged man in a dehumanized
urban world. He feels depressed at the crumbling traditional value system and human
relationships. The younger generation is lacking in sincerity and regard for old
generation. They imitate the fast changing world pattern where there is no place for
the old and aged, for them they are out dated. These are the negative aspects of
modernization.

Ans.6
(i) Swami honored only four person with his confidence. He admired them most in his
class.
1) The first was Somu, the monitor, who carried himself with such an easy air. He set
about his business, whatever it was with absolute confidence and calmness. He was
known to be chummy even with the teachers. No teacher ever put to him a question in
the class.
2) The second was Mani, the mighty good for nothing. He toward above all the other
body of the class. He seldom brought any book to the class. No teacher ever tried to
prod him. Mani bullied all strangers that came in his way. Wearing his cap at an
angle, with a Tamil novel under his arm, he had been coming to the school ever since
the old school peon could remember. In most of classes he stayed longer than his
friends did.
3) The third was Shankar, the most brilliant boy of the class. He solved any problem that
was given to him in five minutes and always managed to border on ninety percent. He
could speak to the teachers in English in the open class. He knew all the rivers,
mountains and countries in the world. he could repeat history in his sleep. Grammar
was a child's play to him. His face was radiant with intelligence. Swaminathan looked
on him as a marvel.
4) The fourth friend was Samuel, known as 'the pea' on account of his size. There was
nothing outstanding about him. he was just ordinary, no outstanding virtue of muscle
or intellect . He was as bad in arithmatic as Swaminathan was. he was as
apprehensive, weak and nervous about things as Swaminathan was. The bond
between them was laughter. They were able to see together the same absurdities and
incongruities in things hot water and medicine, preparation for ushering a new person
into the world- were too bewildering for Swaminathan's comprehension.
Ans.7 (i) When the friends of Swami came out of the examination room they began
discussing how they answered the question. At the last question of moral one
of them had written a full page, Rajam had written only three quarter of a page
while Shankar had written a little more than half. As Swami only a line, he felt
disclosing it, would be befooling himself. Therefore he said that he also wrote
about half a page.
(ii) At school everybody seemed 'to be overwhelmed by the thought of the
examination" His friends hardly exchanged even a few words with him. Somu
has become brisk.
Swami mother gave birth to a baby boy. One day his Granny said to
him that he was going to have a baby brother. That night he was allowed to
sleep on Granny's bed. The lights kept burning all night. Whenever he opened
his eyes he was conscious of busy feet scurrying along the passage. Late at
night when he woke up he saw a lady doctor in the hall. She behared as it the
house belonged to her. She entered mother's room, a mingled noise was
coming out of that room. Then she came out and commanded Swami's father
to do something. He went away returned with a small bottle in his hand he
hovered about uncertainly. The hushed voices hurry seriousness agitation, and
business like. No one had seen smile on Shankar's face. Rajam came to the
school on time, not uttering a dozen words to anybody. Mani looked worried.
(iii) As the geography teacher was on leave, the boys of first "A" were in leisure.
Swami missed his friends and felt lonely. He wandered along the corridor of
the infant standards. He saw the infants dabbling in wet clay and trying to
shape models for Swami it was ridiculous things to do at school.
Ans. 8(i) The Silver box was given the title 'The cigarette box by Galworthy both
essentially mean the same thing an expensive cigarette case. It is the central
thing in the plot. The entire story revolves round it Jones, an out of work poor
man is tempted one night to take it away from wealthy Jack's house. Mr.
Barthwick first points his accusing finger at this char woman Mrs. Jones. She
discovered it by chance at her house, she insists on returning it to its owner.
There is a fight Jones wants to throw it into the river. At this crucial moment a
detective Mr. Snow enters the room the stolen box he draws Mrs. Jones on
charge of thief to the police station. Jones attack the policeman on duty. He too
is arrested both are produced in the court. The dishonest, magistrate the
constable and lawyer Roper Shield Jack Jones is convicted assaulting A public
servant on duty but not on the charge of stealing.
Hence the cigarette box events all conflicts & suffering arise from it. The word
silver gives to the title the colour of a class struggle between the rich and poor.
It is the symbol or rich.
(ii) Jones Galsworthy, the noble prize winner in his drama ' The Silver Box' took up
specific social grievances such as the double standard of justice as applied to the
upper and jower classes. He believed that since the prevailing social structure was
maintained through laws, these laws should be operative for all, rich and poor alike.
"The Silver Box' may be regarded as a problem play, a social tragedy. The
victims are poor Jones, his wife, Mrs. Jones and children. The other side wealthy
liberal, Mr. Barthwick himself is law. Galsworthy indicts the established institution of
law courts which is held in highest esteem for its fairness. The ground reality is that
the scales of justice are tilted in favour of men of position and wealth. Jack Barthwick
and Jones are equally wicked. Both are equally guilty of misconduct, moral
degradation and stealing. But law treats them differently. Jack is shielded by his
father. His offence of stealing is ignored and magistrate acquits him. But poor Jones
who pleads his case himself, is silenced and sent to prison. In the end Jones expressed
his anger "Call this Justice" What about im, 'E got drunk ! 'E took the purse - 'e took
the purse but it's is money got 'im off- JUSTICE !"
Ans.9(i) Unknown lady came to meet Mr. Jack Barthwick but he was having a severe
headache and she had to tell to Jonh Barthwick why she wanted to meet Jack.
She explained him how in liquor, he snatched her reticule containing all her
money.
The visit of the unknown lady serves a useful dramatic purpose. It throws
lights on Jack's real character. She reveals that Jack is a drunkard and
associated with prostitutes. Lady's visit helped the dramatist to construct the
plot.
(iii) When Mrs. Jones detects the stolen purse, she thinks to return it. When she
shakes out Jones, coat, the silver box falls down from the coat pocket. She is
shocked to see it . She wants to take it back and tell them all about it. But
Jones snatches it from her hands with a promise that he would throw it away
into the river along with the purse. Meanwhile a detective, snow appointed by
Mr. Barthwick enters Jones house. Snot detects the letters J.B. carried on it
and he is sure that it is Barthwick's.
Ans.10 (i) Emphasis has been laid on the restructuring of public health schemes and
catering to the nutritional needs of the people in five year plans.
(ii) A massive expansion of medical education was essential to improve primary
health care and to make it affordable for the masses.
(iii) The integral part of health was nutrition and it needed to be addressed
urgently.
(iv) According to Mr. Sen, the body mass index of an average tribal individual was
below 18.5. This shows that the food grain distribution was not adequate and it
should be supplemented with pulses and oil.
(v) (a) Restructuring
(b) Dearth
(c) Affordable
(d) Unanimity
Ans.11 The real end of life is neither enjoyment nor sorrow but to act in living present.
(a) Mournful
(b) Slumbers
(c) Destined
Ans.12 THE CHOICE A PROFESSION
Outlines:
1. INTRODUCTION.
2. FIRST RULE FOR CHOOSING A GOOD PROFESSION
3. SECOND GOLDEN PRINCIPAL
4. THIRD IMPORTANT CONDITION OF CHOICE
5. WHAT PROFESSION DO I LIKE
6 CONCLUSION
How good is man's life
The mere living how fit to employ.
All the heart and the soul.
And the senses for everyone enjoy.
1. INTROCUTION
Some says, "Stars make our fate". But to speak truth, it is our own thinking
which makes or mars our destiny. Our success often depends on how we choose a
profession. A good profession can make our life a pleasant sport. On the other hand a
bad one may turn our life into a long disease. So it we want happiness we must think
how to choose a profession.
2. FIRST RULE FOR CHOOSING A GOOD PROFESSION
The best profession is that where we can serve best. It is mistake to choose a
profession which can pay more without having capacity for it. If we have no ability
we cannot serve well, if we do not serve well, our services may be terminated. So
those who only aim at gold, become rolling stones. But those who aim at service
permanently make rise and become happy.
3. SECOND GOLDEN PRINCIPAL
Another important thing which we should keep in mind is that we should not
choose a profession against our taste. A man cannot serve with his whole heart, if he
done not like his work. Working without interest soon makes us inefficient and lazy.
Our laziness is danger to our progress. So parents and religious should not crush the
taste and ambition of our young men.
4. THIRD IMPORTANT CONDITION OF CHOICE
We should also not forget, 'Honesty is the best policy ?" Dishonest professions
are thorn to social life. Good men prefer death to making gambling or black
marketing their profession. Money is never greater than man. We should never give
God's throne to gold.
5. WHAT PROFESSION DO I LIKE
I like the honest profession of teaching. My ability and taste are fit for it. It
gives me much pain that educational institutions are but degree making factories. So it
is the dream of my life to make students not mere bookworms but true nation builders
and servants of humanity.
6 CONCLUSION
Man is maker of his destiny. It depends on him to choose either luxury and be
kicked or served and be elevated. Rightly says Lord Rama, "Luxury is sweet at first
but poison in the end while service which is bitter at first is a road to salvation and all
blessings."

Dear Sir,
I would like to draw you king attention to irregular supply of electricity to this city. In
fact, it has gone from bad to worse.
Now, it seems those were better days, for at least one knew when there was a cut.
Now it is the sweet will of the Board. It may decide to punish the inhabitants at the dead of
the night while they are sleeping under a fan.
Without electricity in the morning, there is no supply of tap water too. Life has
become really very horrible.
The examinations are at hand. The poor students have no light to study at night.
I request the authorities through your esteemed paper to look into the matter and
improve the situation.
Yours
