ENGLISH COMMUNICATIVE

 
SECTION – A : READING 
 
1. Read the following passage carefully:
 
1. We live in an era where it is difficult to miss fast and junk food and the rise in teenage obesity and related health issues due to it.
 
2. During teenage, weight gain is normal but when it goes beyond control, the person becomes obese. Our body requires energy to function, which is derived from the food we eat but when the intake of food becomes more than the amount that the body requires, the excess energy is stored as body fat.
 
3. Contemporary lifestyle sees an increasing consumption of junk food, and spending time watching television and playing computer games. Overeating along with lack of physical exercise are the major causes leading to teenage obesity. Large intake of high calorie food and low nutrient food leads to unnecessary weight gain. Besides these, obesity can also be genetically inherited where some people have the genetic tendency to burn calories more slowly compared to others. Stress is also a reason for obesity where people resort to overeating to alleviate their stress.
 
4. Teenage obesity is growing immensely and has been named an „obesity epidemic‟. A number of health issues arise out of it like diabetes, high blood pressure and cholesterol, sleeping disorders, hormonal imbalance, and asthma. Along with these, obesity can also result in psychological problems like low self-esteem due to the constant jeering of peers. Obese teens are more prone to being teased and physically bullied compared to others of their same age.
 
5. Therefore, it is necessary to control excessive weight gain. Inactivity is the major cause of obesity and regular exercise is the best way to control it. Physical exercise like jogging, swimming and playing outdoor games can help to keep fit. A balanced diet with lots of vegetables, fruit and whole grains is also essential. Junk food and soft drinks should be substituted with lots of vegetables, fruits and whole grains in the diet. Drinking around 8-10 glasses of water also helps to reduce the calorie intake.
 
6. Parents have an important role in controlling teenage obesity as they should try to set examples by following a healthy diet and leading a healthy lifestyle. A combined effort of the parents and kids can help to control this eating disorder.
 
1.1 On the basis of your understanding of the above passage, answer any eight of the questions that follow:
 
a) When does a teen become obese?
 
b) What has teenage obesity been termed as?
 
c) Why do teens become obese?
 
d) What are the major causes of obesity?
 
e) What are the health issues related to obesity?
 
f) How does it affect teens psychologically?
 
g) What are the other causes of obesity?
 
h) Mention some simple ways to prevent obesity?
 
i) In what way can parents help their kids?
 
2. Read the passage given below :
 
1. If you think that imagination has nothing to do with reality, you are wrong. The Wright brothers wanted to fly, and people considered them lunatics. Leonardo da Vinci, Thomas Edison and Bill Gates were considered as daydreamers, when actually, they were visualizing and imagining their vision.
 
2. Whatever they were imagining years ago is now a solid reality. Imagination has much to do with reality. It shapes the way we see our reality, and therefore, affects our expectations and hopes, our actions and behavior. Imagination is like a software that programs our behavior, expectations and actions. This means that we have to be very careful with what we imagine, since what we see in our mind‟s eye can become our reality.
 
3. If we imagine bad things, we program our mind accordingly, and sooner or later see, act and behave accordingly, and create what we imagined. This also works the other way. Imagine good things, and this will affect your actions and behavior, which consequently would create in your life what you imagined in your mind. Your reality mirrors what goes on in your mind.
 
4. If you imagine yourself weak and poor, you will enact this part in your life, but if you imagine yourself powerful and rich, you will eventually become so. Everything starts in the mind. A business starts as a thought and a mental image. You first imagine yourself possessing a certain kind of car, and then you do something to get it.
 
5. If you wish to lose weight, you start by imagining yourself slim and well-shaped. If this thought is clear and focused, and you allow no doubt, you will sooner or later find the ideas, the information, and the energy to do something about it. If you imagine yourself as an athlete, a teacher or an actor, and repeat this thought in your mind, day after day, this thought will drive you into action, and eventually would turn into reality. This is exactly how successful people become prosperous.
 
6. Four reasons, why your imagination is creating the events in your life.
 
1. When you imagine a certain thing, day after day, gradually, you start thinking about it most of the time. This will drive you instinctively to search for information about it.
 
2. Using your imagination to build a mental picture of what you want tells your subconscious mind that you really want it. Consequently, the subconscious mind will supply you the energy to do something about it.
 
3. Your thoughts create a mental image of the object, situation or people you are thinking about, and in subtle ways, affect you and your environment.
 
4. You, through your imagination, are shaping your life‟s events. If you tend to worry, think negatively and expect failure, you are using your imagination in a negativ manner. And vice versa, if you imagine and envision progress, promotion and successful results, you will attract opportunities and take action.

 

2.1 Read the given questions and write the answers in about 30-40 words. (Any four)
 
a) How are imagination and reality connected?
 
b) How has the writer compared imagination with?
 
c) How do negative things happen?
 
d) According to the writer, how does the process of losing weight start?
 
e) Why do successful people become prosperous?
 
2.2 Complete the following on the basis of the passage: (Any Two)
 
1. When you imagine a certain fact or thing, you gradually start thinking and this will __________.
 
2. Using your imagination to build a mental picture of your goal, initiates the subconscious mind to ________________.
 
3. The creation of a mental image of people, facts or goals, in subtle ways __________________.
