This is the funny incident in the text. 1 M 2) Nick Vujicic was a self-motivated and a brave man. Nick’s life story says thatdisability Cannot prevent one from reaching great heights if one has great inner personality which Includes dedication, determination, will power, perseverance and hard work. 1 M 3) Though Bethany Hamilton had no arm she was able to surf well.

ENGLISH, Paper – II (Third language)

Parts A and B Time: 2 ½ Hours][Maximum Marks: 50 Instructions: 1. Answer the questions under Part-A on a separate answer book. 2. Write the answers to the questions under Part-B on the question paper itself in the space provided and attach it to the answer book of Part-A. 3. Start answering the questions as you read them.

Part - A Time: 1 ½ Hours Marks: 30 (1-10) Answer ANY FIVE of the following questions. Each answer should be in one or two sentences. 5x1=5 1. What ‘in Narayana Murthy’s opinion’ can change one’s life? (I’ll do it) 2. What things would you buy if you were Jack? Why? (The Never-Never Nest) 3. The King made the Potter the General of the Army? Why? (The brave Potter) 4. What made the Potter a hero? (The brave Potter) 5. Narayana Murthy is uncompromising. How? 6. Why are Savitri’s films called ‘an album of life’? (A Tribute) 7. How was the abandoned baby? (Abandoned) 8. What are the evil effects of pyramid of drums? (A tale of three villages) 9. What made superficial observers bewildered about India? (Unity in diversity in India) 10. What made Mrs. Murthy forget her name? (What is my name) 11. Read the following passage. 5x1=5 Savitri captured the audiences with her charm and magnificent acting. She was able to convey a wide range of feelings through her expressive eyes. Her mischievous look- it captivates anyone; the look of fake anger provokes, the looks filled with real anger pierces the heart. The look of passion while waiting for her lover; the confident work that seems ready to face any situation, all these myriad emotions are hidden in her eyes. The dimensions are endless and pages can be filled to describe the magic spell of her eyes.

The Mountain Goat There was once a young mountain goat who lived in a valley at the foot of the Himalayas. The valley was full of beautiful flowers and covered with green grass. Living in such a fine place, the young goat never felt hungry and grew up to be a strong animal, sure of foot and able to run fast. He climbed any hill easily and skipped lightly from one rack to another. He was a handsome animal, with his coat of long brown hair and a head with a pair of large strong horns. With them he could face his life-long enemy, the tiger. One day our young friend the goat was grazing on a patch of green grass and suddenly he heard a sound. Quickly turning round, he found that the old tiger was following him. It was too late for him to run, so he stood his ground and faced the tiger, ready to meet any attack. The tiger, turning to the goat said, “I see you are ready to fight, but why should we both get hurt fighting? If you can tell me any three truths, I shall let you go away. “All right”, said the goat, “I shall tell you three simple truths about yourself and me. The first truth is this: If you go and tell the other tigers that you met me here and still you didn’t kill me, they will not believe you.” “Too true”, said the tiger. “Go on, tell me the other two.” “Well”, said the goat, suppose I get away and tell the other goats that you didn’t want to fight, they will not believe me.” “Too true”, said the tiger, “Go on, tell me the next truth.” “The next truth is this”, said the goat, “We are both talking here and you are listening to all I say without trying to kill me. So you cannot be really be hungry.”

There are over 9,200 species of birds known from around the world and they can be found in just about every habitat. The average adult male ostrich, the world’s largest living bird weighs up to 345 pounds. The largest bird egg in the world today is that of the ostrich. The smallest bird is the Bee Humming bird at 2.24in (5.7cm). The Humming birds are found in North and South America. In the north, these can be found as far as Alaska and in the south, they can be spotted as far as southern Chile. An amazing fact about humming bird is that it can fly up, down, forward, backward and even upside down. The humming birds are the only bird that can fly backwards. When active, a humming bird breathes around 300-500 times every minute. The heart of a humming bird makes up for around 20% of the body volume. The heart beat ranges from 30-1500 per minute depending on the specie and the activity. Hummings help in pollination as they carry pollen on their barks just like bees when they go from one flower to another in search of nectar. One humming bird visits around 1000-2000 flowers in a single day!

Unity in Diversity in India (1)A keen penetrating insight will not fail to recognize the fundamental unity beneath the manifold variety in India. The diversity itself, far from being a damaging cause of disunity and weakness, is fertile source of strength and wealth. Sir Herbert Risely has rightly observed. “ Beneath the manifold diversity of physical and social types, languages. Customs and religions which strike the observer in India, there can still be discerned a certain underlying uniformity of life from the Himalayas to cape comorin.” From his long and first – hand experience in India, Vincent A. Smith says that civilization of India has many features which differentiate it from that of the other regions of the world, while they are common to the whole country in degree sufficient to justify its treatment as a unity in the history of human, social and intellectual development. Now the answer the following questions: 1.What will recognize the fundamental unity beneath the manifold variety in India? 2.What is the fertile source of strength and wealth? 3What does sir Herbert Risely observe? 4. Pick out the synonym of the word ‘many’ from the passage? 5.What does the Vincent A. smith say? (2) India has many races, castes, sub – caste, nationalities and communities, but the heart of India is one. We are all heirs to a common and rich culture. Our cultural heritage consists of our art and literature as they flourished centuries ago. Our cultural heritage serves as bond of unity between people of different faiths and creeds, The streams of different cultures have flowed into our sub-continent to make us what we are and what we will be. There were Dravidians in India before the coming of the Aryans and Hinduism is a blend of the cultures of the North and the south. India has one hundred and fifty dialects, and twenty two recognized regional languages, but Hindi, like English, has come to stay as the lingua franca of our nation. From Kashmir to KanyaKumari and from Mumbai to Nagaland, Hindi is now understood and is Recognized as the national language of India. Now answer the following questions: 1.What does our culture heritage consist of? 2.How does our cultural heritage serve? 3.Who were there in India before the coming of Aryans? 4.How many languages were recognized as regional languages among one hundred and fifty dialects? 5.What is the status of Hindi language in India?

To make good notes means to make notes which will useful later on. So you must proceed systematically. In making notes from a lecture, youought to know for what purpose you are making notes. This will help you to decide how much has to be included and how much can be left out. The presentation by the lecture is also important; if the lecture is not properly organized or confused and vague, you cannot take notes from it. When you make notes from an easy or an article or a chapter from a book, the first step is to read the passage thoroughly, from the beginning to the end, to get a ‘birds’ – eye view of it. This kind of reading is called ‘skimming’. By skimming the passage we get answer to the following questions: i)What does the passage deal with? Can we suggest a title for it? ii) How does the author develop the theme? Tjis leads us to second step that is to find the chief divisions of the passage and supply suitable headings for them. Here is an example. (4) [Q12] Reading the following passage and prepare notes in a print wise way. There are many different kinds of musical instruments. They are divided into three main classes according to the way that they are played. For example some instruments are played by blowing air into them. They are called wind instruments. In some of these the air is made to vibrate inside a woodenterbia and these are said to be of the wood wind family. Examples of wood wind instruments are flute. The clarinet and the bassoon. Other instruments are made of brass: the trumpet and the horn. For example there are also various other wind instruments such as mouth organ and the bag pipes. // some instruments like this are called percussioninstruments. The last big group of musical instrumentsare the ones which have strings. There are two main kinds of stringed instruments; those in which the music made by plucking the strings, and those where the player draws a bow across the strings. Examples of

Soon the police van came and chased the Toyota van, but the tracers have not been traced. The search is going on. 8. Read the following diary entry of a report. Using these and imagining yourself as a reporter, with a brief report to be sent to your newspaper for publishing. Title the report suitably. Wearing helmet – compulsory – prevent accidents – pillion riders – wear helmets – protect – read mishaps – Rash driving by teenagers – fatal accidents – take place – listening to music – using mobile phones on driving – compounds the risk – students – exhibit – heroism with stunts – fun – happiness – utmost speed – understand – the parents depressed condition – lost the children – speed thrills – thrills – government take steps –ill-effects – rash driving – college managements enforce – rules – commute in RTC or college buses – avoid accidents then only. WEARING HELMET IS A SAFETY PRECAUTION Ans:- Wearing helmet must be made compulsory in order to prevent accidents. Pillion riders also must wear helmets to protect themselves from reach mishaps. Bikes are provided to students to have a comfortable journey and to reduce the problems on their journey in the unreliable Rtc buses. But fatal incidents are taking place due to rash driving by teenagers. It has been a common practice for many students to listen to the music and speaking to someone on mobile phone vehicle driving which compounds the risk of road accidents. Many in recent past, the number of bike accidents has increased enormously. Students try to exhibit their heroism with stunts on the roads without knowing the later impacts of it. Unfortunately, students give little concern to carry helmet despite being highly educated and extremely aware of traffic hazards. Students get immense fun and happiness riding them with utmost speed. But they should understand the depressed condition of the parents who have lost their children in situations like those.

They asked the king for the finest silk and gold threads. One day the king sent a minister to look the work. Minister found nothing on the looms and thought that if he said the truth, he would be treated as a fool. So he lied that the cloth was splendid. At last the weavers said that the cloth was ready. They made trousers and coat. They asked the king to put on the new clothes. Even though he saw nothing, he feared that it will reveal his foolishness. So he walked along in the procession. Every one cried that they were beautiful. But a little child looked the king and found that there were no clothes. He called his father and said this to him.

Q .no: 16 Unseen passages type - II

Read the following passage carefully (1) We know how light is usually produced. It is made by burning things we burn wax in a candle, oil in a lamp and electricity in an electric bulb .But these things - candles and lamps - give out not only light but also a large amount of heat. There are some living things which can give out light without any heat at all. There are a large number of such living things .of these, fireflies and glow - warms are known to most to us. The light given out by these insects is cold because it is not made by burning anything. If it was the insect would get burnt up themselves. These lights are produced by the chemical changes in their bodies. A fresh scientist named Dubois found out that the glow - warm gave out a glow because of a chemical. He called it ‘Luciferin’. Later he found out that the Lucifer in by itself cannot give out light. It must act with another chemical, which he called ‘Luciferase’. But soon it was found that all glowing insects do not have the same chemicals. In short , we still do not know exactly how a glow warm glows ! A glow- warm really is a small beetle. The female glow- warm does not have wings. She cannot fly. She is the one that carries the small light and give the night such beauty. We know why these insects produce their cold light. The glow warm wants the male beetle to see her, from her light the male knows where she is, Fireflies also use their lights for the same reason . Some fishes use a glow to get their food, The squid , a creature which lives in the sea , use its glow to save itself from larger fish . Now answer the following questions 2×1=2 (a) The passage gives two examples of insects that use their light to attract the male .what are they ? 1. ___________________________________________ 2.____________________________________________ (b) There are five words in list-A .The meanings of four of them are given in list –B. Choose the right word from list –A to match the meaning and write in the space provided against each meaning 4 × ½ = 2

beneath the manifold variety in India. The diversity itself, far from being a damaging

regions of the world, while they are common to the whole country in degree sufficient

to justify its treatments as a unity in the history of human, social and intellectual

development".

aeroplane did not fly more than a few metres, the people looking at it were very

excited. They knew that one day aeroplanes would become bigger and more

powerful. The important thing was that this aeroplane really had flown and had really

been driven by an engine.

Just like George Stephenson, Who made the first successful railway engine, the

Wright brothers kept making their engines better and better. They made longer and

longer flights. At last their plane was able to stay in the air for a whole minute, flying

against the wind it was not a very well- made machine and did not fly higher than a

house but it flew for nearly three hundred metres, The Wright brothers have

succeeded, they had shown men how to fly.

Later on, the aeroplanes that were built were more and more powerful. They

were bigger and faster and they could fly very long distances. They could carry big

loads. Now a days aeroplanes fly all over the world, carrying passengers and mail

and cargo. Aeroplanes that you see flying in India have come from as far away as

the United States of America, Russia and Japan. (Mar'98)

Comprehension passages: (unseen) Type II

1) What is a noise? We can say loud sound is noise. It's something we don't like. In

Indian cities, most of the noise comes from the roar of the traffic on our roads. The

other major noise in India is the loud speaker which is used at religious, social and

other functions.

How much sound is too much? Almost everyone has a slightly different

level. But sound is measured in scientifically. The intensity of sound is measured in

decibels. Zero decibel is equal to the finest sound heard by the human ear. A quiet

bedroom may register around 35 decibels in a classroom during a quiet period it may

register around 50 decibels. This level is comfortable to the ears. It is said that most

people speak in a range between 45 and 75 decibels.

Noise damages ear at 85 decibels. Hearing loss can begin when the noise

level goes above decibels and actual pain is felt at 140 decibels. Some people may

experience pain even at a low level. It's the length of time, often hours, of being

exposed to loud noises that damages sensitive part of the ear.

man sat down to his meal in the forest, he had to first call loudly for someone to

come and share it with him; only then could he eat alone. A Samoan, who was told

3. Read the following passage carefully.

Hibernation is more than sleep. It is a very deep sleep. In warm countries,

where the winters are not very long or very cold, hibernation is not necessary. And in

very cold parts of the world, like the far north of Russia, not many animals hibernate;

the ground is so hard that they con not make a deep hole to spend the winner in. But

animals in large part of the northern hemisphere spend every winter fast asleep.

They go to sleep in all kinds of places. Red squirrels disappear inside trees, bears

use caves, frogs go to deep under the mud and very many other animals dig tunnels

in the earth. Some animals sleep under the snow, there is a lot of air in loose snow,

and this helps to keep the cold out.

Some warm blooded animals like the cat, the dog or the wolf, do not need to

hibernate. They lead an active life which keeps up their usual body temperature even

in very cold winter weather. But for cold blooded creatures such as a frog or a snake

it is a different matter. When the air temperature is below freezing, the creature's

blood temperature drops too, it cannot move about in the usual way. And then it has

no choice. It must simply lie down and sleep.

A. Answer the following questions.

1. Name two warm blooded animals.

I.________________

II._______________

B. There are five words in list A. The meanings of four of them are give in list B.

Choose the right word from list A to match the meaning in list B and write it in the

space provided against each.
