SECTION – A

(Reading Skill )

A.1 Read the poem carefully and answer the following questions from the poem. [10]
 
“I love you, Mother”, said John;
Then forgetting his work, his cap went on,
And he was off to the garden swing,
And left her the water and wood to bring.
“I love you, Mother”, said rosy Nell –
“I love you better than tongue can tell,”
Then she teased and pouted full half the day,
Till her mother rejoiced when she went to play.
“I love you, Mother”, said little Fan;
“Today I will help you all I can;
How glad I am that school doesn’t keep!”
So she rocked the babe till it fell asleep.
Then, stepping softly, she fetched the broom,
and swept the floor and tidied the room;
Busy and happy all day was she, helpful and happy as
child could be.
“I love you, Mother”, again they said;
Three little children going to bed;
How do you think that mother guessed
Which of them really loved her best?

A.2 Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow by choosing the answer from given options.
 
My grandmother and I were good friends. My parents left me with her when they went to live in the city and we were constantly together. She used to wake me up in the morning and get me ready for school. She said her morning prayer in a monotonous sing song while she bathed and dressed me in the hope that I would listen and get to know it by heart; I listened because I loved her voice but never bothered to learn it. Then she would fetch my wooden slate which she had already washed and plastered with yellow chalk, a tiny earthen inkpot and a red pen, tie them all in a bundle and hand it to me. After a breakfast of a thick stale chapatti with a little butter and sugar spread on it, we went to school. She carried several stale chapattis with her for the village dogs.
 
My grandmother always went to school with me because the school was attached to the temple. The priest taught us the alphabet and the morning prayer. While the children sat in rows on either side of the verandah singing the alphabet or the prayer in a chorus, my grandmother sat inside reading the scriptures. When we had both finished, we would back together with dogs following us for food.
                    – Khushwant Sing (adapted).

A.3 Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow by choosing the answers from given options.
 
1. The song of many birds seems beautiful to us. That is why it is called song, for it reminds us of human song. We do not know whether birds themselves consider their song beautiful, although we like to believe that they do. What birds feel we will never know, because they have no means of telling us. But we do know other things about bird song.
 
2. If we watch a male song-bird, such as a nightingale, early in the morning in
early spring, we shall notice that it is alone and has not yet got a mate. It spends most of its time singing. If we watch closely we will see that while it sings it looks continually round in all directions.
 
3. If we continue to watch this bird from day to day, we shall notice that it is
singing every morning, usually from the same few perches. Suddenly, one day, there is no singing bird. It has not left however. We shall find that the bird is still there but it is not alone. A female has arrived, and our male is silent because it has mated. The pair keeps close together but the male does not sing.
 
4. We might well ask why it should stop singing when the song has served its purpose; why should not the male continue to sing just for pleasure even after the female has arrived? The reason is that so many natural events are determined by their usefulness. Song is uttered, therefore, in many species only when it is necessary. It is very useful for the purpose of bringing the male and female together, but as soon as the purpose is accomplished, it is merely dangerous for the male to sing, it could run the risk of being killed.
 
(i) Do birds think their songs to be beautiful?
a) Yes                     b) No
c) We do not know   d) It is unpredictable
 
(ii) A nightingale starts singing in early morning of spring because -
a) the weather is fine
b) it is alone and has not yet got a mate
c) it fears someone will kill it
d) it is in a happy mood
 
(iii) A nightingale keeps looking continuously around while it is singing because –
a) it remains alert lest some one should attack and kill it
b) it is eagerly to look for a mate
c) it is sad and restless
d) it is looking for its offspring who has not come
 
(iv) The nightingale stops singing because –
a) it wants privacy                    b) its purpose is accomplished
c) it is busy with its offsprings   d) it is feeding its offsprings
 
(v) The word ‘accomplished’ means –
a) gained b) performed
c) achieved d) completed
