1.
Read the passage given below and answer the
questions
that
follow: (8
Marks)
1.
Maybe you’re bored of
bananas, apples and grapes and need a fresh produce pick? A nutrient-rich
serving of kiwi fruit may be just what you need. A serving of kiwi fruit (2
kiwis) has twice the vitamin C of an orange, as much potassium as a banana and
the fiber of a bowl of whole grain cereal—all for less than 100 calories!
2.
The fuzzy fruit is
sky-high in both soluble and insoluble fiber, both of which are essential for
promoting heart health, regulating digestion, and lowering cholesterol
levels—that’s a winning trifecta. Kiwi fruit has also been considered a
“nutritional all-star,” as Rutgers University researchers found that kiwi fruit
has the best nutrient density of 21 commonly consumed fruits.
3.
Along with vitamin C,
kiwi fruits are rich in many bioactive compounds that have antioxidant capacity
to help to protect against free radicals, harmful by-products produced in the
body. If you want clean energy, think of kiwi fruit because they’re rich in
magnesium, a nutrient essential to convert food into energy.
4.
A kiwi fruit also
doubles as a peeper-keeper by supplying your eyes with protective lutein, a
carotenoid that’s concentrated in eye tissues and helps protect against harmful
free radicals. Kiwi fruit is also packed with blood pressure-lowering
potassium. In fact, a 100-gram serving of kiwi fruit—that’s about one large
kiwi—provides 15% of the Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA) of potassium.
5.
Kiwi fruit has been
growing in New Zealand for over 100 years. Once the fruit gained in popularity,
other countries started to grow them including Italy, France, Chile, Japan,
South Korea and Spain. At first, kiwis were referred to as ‘Yang Tao’ or
‘Chinese Gooseberry,’ but the name was ultimately changed to kiwi fruit so that
everyone would know where the fruit came from.
6.
A ripe kiwi fruit will
be plump and smooth-skinned, and free of wrinkles, bruise, and punctures. If
you find that your kiwi is a little too firm after buying it, simply let it
ripen at room temperature for three to five days. The firmer the fruit, the
more tart it will taste. To speed up the
ripening process, you can also place kiwis in
a paper bag with an apple or banana. If you want to store the fruit longer, you
should keep in a plastic bag in the refrigerator.
1.1 On
the basis of your reading of the passage given above, answer the

Read the passage given below and answer the
questions
that
follow: (12
Marks)
1.
Do children really
need such long summer breaks, was a question posed by some experts recently.
Apparently, such a long break disrupts their development and comes in the way
of their learning process. Let’s get the takes back to their books, is perhaps
the expert view, if not in so many words. One would have thought the children
are doing too much during their vacations and not too little, given the
plethora of course, classes, camps and workshop involving swimming, art,
personality development, music, computers and the like that seem to cram their
calendar. Even the trips taken in the name of holidays seem laden with exotic
destinations and customised experience packed into a short period of time. We
can do Europe in 10 days and Australia in a week and come back armed with
digital memories and overflowing suitcase. Holidays are in some ways, no longer
a break but an intensified search for experience not normally encountered in
everyday life.
2.
It is a far cry from
summer holidays on experienced growing up. For holidays every year meant one
thing and one thing alone—you went back to your native place, logging in with
emotional headquarters of your extended family and spent two months with a
gaggle of uncles, aunts and first and second cousins. The happiest memories of
the childhood of a whole generation seem to be centered around this annual
ritual of homecoming and of affirmation. We tendered tacit apologies for the
separateness entailed in being individuals even as we scurried back into the
cauldron of community and continuity represented by family. Summer vacation was
a time sticky with oneness, as who we were and what we owned oozed out from our
individual selves into a collective pot.
3.
Summer was not really
a break, but a joint. It was the bridge used to re-affirm one’s connectedness
with one’s larger community. One did not travel, one returned. It was not an
attempt to experience the new and the extraordinary but one that emphatically
underlined the power of the old and the ordinary. As times change, what we seek
from our summer breaks too has changed in
fundamental ways.
Today we are attached much more to the work and summer helps us temporarily
detach from this new source of identity. We refuel our individual selves now;
and do so with much more material than we did in the past. But for those who
grew up in different times, summer was the best time for their lives.
(Source: The Times of India) 2.1. On
the basis of your reading of the passage,
answer the following
questions in 30-40 words:
(2 ×
4 = 8)
(a)
Why do experts
question about the summer breaks given to children?
(b)
How are students kept

(c)
What is the central
point of the writers happiest memories of childhood?
(d)
What goal do the
present summer breaks want to achieve?
Ans :
(a)
Because they disrupt
their development and come in the way of their learning process.
(b)
They are given the
plethora of courses, classes or camps and workshops. These works involve
swimming, art, personality development, music and computers.
(c)
The writers happiest
memories mainly hings on annual ritual of home coming and of affirmation.
(d)
The present summer
breaks want to detach students from new source of identity temporarily.

Importance
of English Language
Today English
language is widely spoken in all parts of the world. English has actually
become a global language. In India, English is serving as a bridge language and
bringing people closer. Everywhere
the institutes or
schools, that are teaching English language, are attracting a big crowd. There
are courses for various age-groups and with different suitable time slots.
People of all age groups are busy in learning English for their placement in
business and other kinds of work in life. Actually there is a kind of rat race.
People are spending a lot of money to acquire proficiency in spoken English.
People rate English speaking people as comparatively more educated and
civilised. Actually language is our primary source of communication. It is the
method through which we share our ideas and thoughts with others.

Ans :
Once upon a time
there was a crocodile and he was friend of a monkey who lived on the tree near
the river. They used to spend their free time in gossips. The
crocodile used to tell him about the water
animals. Most of the time he talked about his family. The monkey was also very
talkative. Whenever crocodile visited the monkey he used to bring some gifts
for him and the monkey also used to give him sweet fresh fruits from the tree
on which he lived. They were very happy. One day it was stormy weather. Both of
them were busy in their gossips. They did not know that such weather can be
dangerous. The branch on which the monkey was sitting was very weak. He did not
realise the danger. All of a sudden the branch broke down and the monkey fell
into the river. He did not know how to swim. He was about to drown when the
crocodile noticed the danger. The crocodile at once ran towards him and took
him on his back to the shore and monkey returned home to his tree safely.
or
Once upon a time there lived a king called Jai
Singh who was famous for his wisdom and generosity. He was also known for
justice. One day two women, Janki and Seema, came to palace as they had heard
about Jai Singh’s wisdom. Both were arguing about a child that Seema was
carrying. Janki claimed that it was her child whereas Seema claimed that it was
hers. King Jai Singh kept on watching for a while. Jai Singh ordered them to
stop arguing and keep quiet. Jai Singh thought for a few minutes and observed
both the women. After some time the king ordered the minister to get that child
cut into two pieces and then each woman will have one piece. On listening this,
Janki started crying. Tearful Janki refused for such decision, instead she
requested the king to hand over the child to Seema. Jai Singh ordered that the
child should be given to Janki as a true mother would never let her child be
killed.

Peggy’s questions
to Wanda embarrasses Maddie, why? How is Maddie different from Wanda?
Ans :
Loss is an
essential part of our life. We lose our very precious possessions – especially
those precious gifts we received from our old friends or some of the valuable
birthday gifts given by our parents. Some of these possessions may not be very
expensive but a lot of memories are attached to them. A loss of a single paisa
pierces us very much. Money is earned only after hard labour. We must
understand its worth. It is no use to waste money over nothing. The poet
desires that the boy should understand the nature of the loss. Hence when we
lose any of those possessions we become very sad. One important lession we all
need to learn is the fact that nothing is permanent in life. All things are
subjected to loss, damage and decay. Hence we need to know how to cope with our
losses. What is more important than all possessions is the fact that our life
has to go on. This understanding will help us to cope with our loss in a better
way.
or
Peggy’s remarks
to Wanda in a derogatory manner embarrasses Maddie. The ire of Peggy on Wanda
is more due to her wearing faded and unfitting dresses and on top of it is
never ironed. Maddie too comes from a humble background but economically a
little better than Wanda. Maddie resides at a place better than that of Wanda.
Maddie resides at a place better than that of Wanda. As such her feet are not
muddy like that of Wanda. Maddie’s outgoing nature helps her to make friends
with almost all the girls of her class. Whereas, Wanda’s introvertness keeps
her isolated from others.
The difference
between them is that Maddie, for fear of being scorned by others, never tells
any lies about the dresses she had. But Wanda in order to protect her self
respect would not mind telling lies.

Horace Danby never committed a theft in hurry.
All his previous operations were completely successful. He robbed a safe every
year. This money was enough to last for a year. Like all his previous
robberies, he also planned his latest robbery in a house at Shotover Grange in
all details. For two weeks, he had been studying the house, its rooms, electric
wiring, paths and its garden. He also had a definite information that two
servants working there had gone to movies. He saw them go. He came out from
behind the garden wall. He had packed his tools carefully in a bag on his back.
He had seen the housekeeper hang the key to the kitchen door on a hook outside.
He put on a pair of gloves, took the key and opened the house. He always put on
a pair of gloves before committing a theft. A magazine article had described
the house with all the rooms. It also mentioned that a painting hid a safe. He
collected all these details and made all preparations to make his latest theft
a complete success like the others.
