SECTION A
(READING -20 MARKS)
Q1 Read the following passage carefully. (5 Marks)
Sponsored Festivals
This is the high noon of the Age of Sponsorship. For several years now, we have become used to all kinds of events being sponsored. In many newspapers, every possible feature, barring the editorials, is sponsored. Even the daily weather report is.
Student organizations, which were once content to hold low-key festivals in their college, now find corporate sponsors and get massive media exposure for such events.
Ganesh Chaturthi, the festival was once an affair confined to individual homes. Today, in Mumbai it provides competition for rival sponsors as the size of the idols grows in height and girth every year and the festivities are held with greater gusto and noise. 
During Dushera, Mumbai reverberates to the beat of drums. Thousands of young people spend nights dancing to the various versions of the traditional Gujarati ‘garba’ dance- including the mutant-“disco garba”. It is one of those strange twists of irony that dance, which actually liberated women and gave them a legitimate reason to dance their hearts out, has now become a highly sponsored event in which there is no place for traditional ‘garba’ dancers. In the past, the dancing was free of both self consciousness, as it was a women’s dance, and commerce as it was held in the courtyard.
Thus each year something precious is being lost –and the worst part of it is that the majority of us are not even aware of it.
 
Answer the following questions by selecting the most appropriate options from the ones given below:
 
1) It is called the age of sponsorship as
a) there’s too much money in the market
b) newspapers , festivals in colleges are all commercialized
c) common man loves the paraphernalia
d) money attracts the common man
 
2) The role Garba played in the lives of the women in the past was to
a) help them get rid of their inhibitions
b) provide a stage for their talent
c) root them in tradition
d) prove commercially viable for them
 
3) Today Ganesh Chaturthi is a festival that
a) is confined to individual homes
b) provides an opportunity for sponsors to invest money
c) is held with great fanfare
d) has a few sponsors
 
4) ‘Mutant ’ in para 4 means
a) crazy
b) unimaginable
c) dangerous
d) adapted or changed

5) According to the author the greatest tragedy of sponsorship is
a) the loss of money
b) the focus on unnecessary expenditure
c) the common man is being duped
d) the loss of the essence of our culture without realizing it
 
Q2 Read the following poem carefully: (5 Marks)
 
WHAT I LEAVE TO MY SON
No point in leaving you a long list
Of those who have died
Even if I limit it to my friends and your uncles
It won’t do. Who could remember them all?
My son, isn’t it true?
The obituaries leave me indifferent
as the weather. Sometimes they seem to matter
Even less: How can that be, my son?
I’ll leave you , yes,
A treasure I’m always seeking, never finding
Can you guess? Something wondrous
Something my father wanted for me
Although (poor man!) it’s been nothing
But a mirage in the desert
Of my life.
My soul will join his now, praying
That your generation may find it-
Simply peace-
Simply a life better than ours
Where you and friends won’t be forced
To drag grief-laden feet down the road
To mutual murder.
                                                                                         Nguyen Ngoc Bich
