Of these, two will be from Text book for paper-1 and two unseen passages for paper-2. The chosen text may be different genres i.e. story, description, conversation, poem etc. There will be one 10 marks question (about 200-250 words length) and one 5 marks question (about 100-120 words length) for both paper 1 and paper-2. One among the 5 marks questions will be from a poem (either seen or unseen) First passage (Q.No. 1-7) comes from Reading-A part of any unit in the Text book in paper-1. Second passage (Q.No. 8-12) comes from Reading-B, C part of any unit in the Text book in paper-1. Every passage contains two analytical questions. For them you have to answer on your own. Read entire Textbook once: Try to understand the theme of every unit. Take any passage from lower class Text books and frame questions. If you can prepare questions by yourself, you can also answer them easily. Look at below model questions: (Questions 1-7): Read the following conversation from 'The Dear Departed-I' Mrs. Slater: (sharply) Victoria, Victoria! D'ye hear? Come in, will you? Mrs. Slater: I'm amazed at you, Victoria. I really am. Be off now, and change your dress before your Aunt Elizabeth and your Uncle Ben come. It would never do for them to find you in colours with grandfather lying dead, upstairs. Victoria: What are they coming for? They haven't been here for ages. Mrs. Slater: They're coming to talk over poor grandpa's affairs. Your father sent them a telegram as soon as we found he was dead. (A noise is heard) (Henry Slater, a stooping, heavy man with a drooping moustache, enters. He is wearing a black tailcoat, grey trousers, a black tie and a bowler hat.) Henry: I'm wondering if they'll come at all. When you and Elizabeth quarrelled she said she'd never set foot in your house again. Mrs. Slater: She'll come fast enough after her share of what our father's left. You know how hard she can be when she likes. Where she gets it from I can't tell. Henry: I suppose it's in the family. (pause) Where are my slippers? Mrs. Slater: In the kitchen; but you want a new pair, those old ones are nearly worn out. (Nearly breaking down) You don't seem to realize what it's costing me to bear up like I am doing. My heart's fit to break when I see the little trifles that belonged to father lying around, and think he'll never use them again. (Briskly) here! You'd better wear these slippers of my father's now. It's lucky he'd just got a new pair. Answer the following questions in two or three sentences. (3 2 = 6 marks) 5. Who sent a telegram? To whom he sent that? 6. Mrs. Slater had been thinking about a furniture item of her father's what was that? 7. Do you support the behaviour of Slater's couple? Why or Why not? 1-B; 2-D; 3-B; 4-C; 5. Mr. Slater sent telegram. He sent to Elizabeth and Jordan. 6. She had been thinking about a bureau. That was her father's and it was in his bedroom. 7. I don't support their behaviour because their behaviour is irresponsible. They were interested in sharing properties of Abel but not his responsibilities. READING COMPREHENSION (Questions 8-12) Read the following passage. This morning she bought green 'methi' in the market, choosing the freshest bunch; picked up a white radish, imagined the crunch it would make between her teeth, the sweet sharp taste, then put it aside, thinking it an extravagance, counted her coins out carefully, tied them, a small bundle into her sari at the waist; came home, faced her mother-in-law's dark looks, took the leaves and chopped them, Write answers for the given questions in one or two sentences (2 1=2 marks) 11.

I then rushed to that place. The building on fire was a big stationary shop. There was a large crowd of people. I heard the crackling sound made by the burning articles within the shop. By and by the fire was trying to spread to the neighbouring buildings. People there tried to put out the fire by sprinkling water. Due to the power cut in their efforts were limited. Another luckiest thing was only articles were burnt but not people. Actually Owner and three workers escaped the fire. Just then, I heard the fire-engine rushing to the spot. The police also arrived in trucks. The fire-men in their dark uniforms and helmets struggled hard to control the fire. With in ten minutes another Fire-engine also came. They put out the fire in about three hours. People praised the brave men of the firebrigade. Then I remembered my teachers words 'Fire is a good servant but it is a bad master.' Everything in the shop was burnt. The shopkeeper was crying bitterly. He did not insure the shop. After discussion I realized that a fool's cigarette stub caused this fire accident. Another thing is no shopkeeper is following fire safety rules. CONVERSATION 1. Writing dialogues with five to ten exchanges 2. Using proper sequence of exchanges 3.

4 Subject Special ENGLISH VýS$Æý $ÐéÆý l íœ{ºð]lç l 19 l 2015 Model: 100 Dalits arrested for trying to enter temple All India NDTV Correspondent Updated: January 31, 2011 13:56 IST CHENNAI: A hundered Dalits were arrested after they tried to enter a temple in the Madurai district of Tamil Nadu on Monday morning. The Dalits were being led by a politician into a temple in Uthapuram village. Anticipating trouble between the Dalits and upper caste village, the police had imposed Section 144 which bans any gathering of more than four people. For decades, Dalit families were not allowed into the temple, which is managed by non-dalits. In 2008, a wall which separated a colony where Dalit families lives from the rest of the village was demolished on the orders of Chief Minister M Karunanidhi.

We came here to pray and offer pooja to our beloved God. Priest: You are not looking like Savarnas. What are you actually? Are you Dalits? Dailt-2: Yes sir, we are dalits. But we all are devotees of lord Vishnu. Kindly give an opportunity for darshan. Priest: How dare you to enter this sacred temple. You are untouchables. You are not allowed. Dalit-3: Sir, We are also human beings. We are also Hindus. Why shouldn't we enter the temple? Priest: I don't accept. Go to hell. This is the custom here. (People went and came with a leader) Leader: Who stopped these devotees entering into the temple? Untouchability is a crime. All are equal. Dalits have same right as others. One can not deny their constitutional right. Priest: Sir, These people are dalits according to temple customs we don't allow them. Leader: Who are you to stop us? Come all of us let us enter the temple by force. (Police van comes there) Police officer: Arrest all these people. Here the place is under 144 section. Gathering or shouting slogans is a crime. (Policemen arrested dalits and their leader) Dalits: We want justice, we want justice! DESCRIPTION 1. Creating vivid images 2. Using variety of sentence forms 3.

(Note: All indicators (except 1) carry one mark each; indicator 1 carries 2 marks) Model: Kailash Satyarthi (born 11 January 1954) is an Indian children's rights advocate and an activist against child labour. He founded the Bachpan Bachao Andolan (lit. Save the Childhood Movement) in 1980 and has acted to protect the rights of more than 83,000 children from 144 countries. It is largely because of Satyarthi's work and activism that the International Labour Organization adopted Convention No. 182 on the worst forms of child labour, which is now a principal guideline for governments around the world. His work is recognized through various national and international honours and awards including the Nobel Peace Prize of 2014, which he shared with Malala Yousafzai, a female education activist from Pakistan. Write an imaginary interview with Kailash Satyarthi. Student: Congratulations sir. Whole India is proud of you. Kailash Sathyarthi: Thank you very much. Student: How do you feel after being honoured? K.S.: It is a great recognition and honour for millions of children in the world. I hope many more people will join the fight against child slavery. This isn't just about India. It's a global phenomenon. We'll work for this globally. I've been working in 144 countries and my responsibility is with all the world's children. Student: Tell me about your childhood and Education. K.S.: I was born on 11 January 1954 in Vidisha (Madhyapradesh). I studied Electrical Engineering. My parents looked after me very much. They took care of everything. Student: Did you start your work after study? K.S.: No. It is already started when I was a student. I saw inequalities. I asked my class mates to donate text books and money to the underprivileged. After my engineering I started my engineering profession. But it did not give much satisfaction. So I gave up. I started working on child labour. Student: Did your parents accepted to that? K.S.: My mother saw me being attacked. She cried when I left engineering for this cause. She understood my fight, encouraged me. I remember all those who were with me in this struggle, including two colleagues who were killed. Whenever I free children from slavery and take them back to their mothers, the tears of happiness in their eyes are like blessings of God. When I see the faces of liberated children, I find their smile of freedom is divine and it gives me divine strength. I never feel I'm liberating them, rather it feels like they're giving me freedom. Student: Tell me about your organisation, BBA. K.S.: I started a journal, "The Struggle Shall Continue" in 1980 in order to create awareness. I gathered like minded people. We formed Bachpan Bachao Andolan (BBA) and started raids on factories to liberate bonded child labourers. The success of BBA led to the creation of the South Asian Coalition on Child Servitude (SACCS) in 1989. It liberated thousands of bonded labourers. Student: You received many awards also for your work. K.S.: I am working in 144 countries. So I received awards from many nations. Kennedy Human Rights Award (1995), Freedom Award (US-2006) and Nobel Peace Prize 2014 are very few among them. Student: What is your message to the civil society? K.S.: Consumers can boycott goods and services that involve children in manufacturing products. Don't accept hospitality from eateries and from shops employing children. Have the courage to tell them that you refuse to take their services because they employ children, which is a crime. This will put psychological pressure on the industries too.

Biography Kailash Satyarthi is a renowned Indian child rights activist. He has been honored with several awards for his relentless humanitarian work, including the Nobel Peace Prize for 2014 which he shares with the Pakistani activist Malala Yousafzay. He was born on 11 January 1953 in Vidisha, a small town in Madhya Pradesh, a state in India. He noticed that some children did not go to school like me and instead worked under harsh conditions to earn money. Disturbed by the inequalities he witnessed, he decided to do something about it. He asked his classmates to donate textbooks and money to the underprivileged so that the poor kids too got a chance to study. He studied electrical engineering in a Bhopal college and went on to earn a post-graduate diploma in high-voltage engineering. After his graduation he began working as an engineer. A lucrative career lay ahead of him but the young man's heart was not in an engineering job. He wanted to help people, especially the poor children who worked as bonded laborers and thus he quit his job. He started a journal called 'The Struggle Shall Continue' in 1980 in order to create awareness about the problem of child labor. When he learned of a factory in which children were forcibly kept and made to work, he decided it was time to take action. He joined hands with a group of likeminded people and conducted raids on factories from where he rescued several children and their parents who were held as bonded laborers. This was a dangerous idea and he often got beaten up. He formed the Bachpan Bachao Andolan (BBA), a movement dedicated towards eradication of human trafficking and bonded child labor. BBA was the first organization of its kind in India which worked to enlighten the society about the rampant evil of child labor and highlighted the importance of rescuing these children and providing them the chance to live a normal and healthy life. The success of the BBA led to the creation of the South Asian Coalition on Child Servitude (SACCS) in 1989. SACCS has till date liberated several thousands of child laborers working in different industries. He has served as a member of the UNESCO's Education for All and has addressed the U.N.'s General Assembly, International Labor Conference, and U.N. Human Rights Commission. He received many Awards. 2009: Defenders of Democracy Award (US), 2008: Alfonso Comin International Award (Spain), 2006: Freedom Award (US), 1995: Robert F.

To The Editor, Indian Express, Banjarahills, Hyderabad. Sir, I would like to explain the readers about an important issue through your esteemed daily. Old age become a curse to the senior citizens. Now a days most of the parents are living in old age homes or away from children. The so called modern generation is neglecting their parents. The old people (parents) are deserved to be treated with a great love and care. It is the responsibility of the children. Unfortunately many sons and daughters are not looking after parents. In this mechanical life money is loved but not relations. Where ever you go, temples, cross roads, bus stops you can see number of old people begging. This is practical situation of every town and city of India. Health problems, poverty, helplessness and loneliness are compelling them to commit suicides. It is definitely a crime. The land of the values is becoming value less. One should take care of their parents at old age. There should be a clear cut government act on it. There should be a mechanism to follow up. I request you to focus on this and publish articles to inculcate moral and ethical values. Yours truly, XXXX NEWS REPORT 1. Using appropriate headline. 2. Writing appropriate lead sentence. 3.

She is known for her activism for girls' and women's rights, especially for being allowed to go to school. Yousafzai is originally from the town of Mingora in the Swat District. She was a victim of a gunshot attack in October 2012. Yousafzai is the youngest person to have won the Nobel Peace Prize. She won the prize in December 2014. She was 17. In 2009, at age 11, many people got to know her through a weblog of the BBC News' Urdu language service. The BBC published translated writings about her life under Taliban rule. On 9 October 2012, Yousafzai was shot in the head and neck in an assassination attempt by Atta Ullah Khan, a Taliban gunman. She was given emergency treatment in Pakistan and then moved to England for more medical treatment. She had titanium plate put over hole in skull and cochlear implant to restore her hearing. In May 2012 David Trumble, an awardwinning artist, made a cartoon of Yousafzai as a Disney princess as part of a drawing of other feminist icons that he had made into princesses that was in the Huffington Post. On 12 July 2013, at age 16, she made a speech at headquarters of the United Nations, stressing the right to education for all and for human rights and peace and non-violence against terrorism and intolerance citing the proverb: "the pen is mightier than the sword". She was nominated for the 2013 Nobel Peace Prize. She has won a lot of prizes. She is the 2013 recipient of the Sakharov Prize. She was one of the winners of Glamour magazine's Women of the Year. Lady Gaga, who was also a winner and was on the month's cover, said that Yousafazi should have been on November's cover of Glamour instead of her. On October she met President Obama, Michelle Obama, and their daughter Malia in the Oval Office. The Taliban have said that they still want to assassinate Yousafzai. In October 2013 a book about her life I am Malala: The Girl Who Stood Up for Education and Was Shot by the Taliban was published, with her help. The book was banned in Pakistani private schools.

I saw it now. It was indeed a game, a game I had played as a child. Each boy took it in turn every alternate day to be the boss, the other the slave. It had been great fun to me as a youngster. I smiled as I remembered. I looked at the man standing by the gate. He was a white man. I remembered what I had thought yesterday. He, no doubt, I thought to myself, was wondering if the black race is superior to the white. I laughed gently to myself. How silly grown-ups are, how clever we are, how wonderfully able we are, to impute deep motives to childish actions! This man, I said to myself, will puzzle all day on whether the blacks will eventually rise and rule the world because he thinks he sees a little black boy realizing at a tender age his superiority over the white. I will save him his puzzle. I will explain it to him. I went across to him. 'I know what you're thinking,' I said. 'You're thinking that may be the black race is superior to the white, because you just saw the little dark youngster on the lawn ordering the little white boy around. Don't think that; it's a game they play. Alternate days one is the boss, the other the servant. It's a grand game. I used to play it and may be so did you. Yesterday I saw the little white boy bossing the dark one and I worried all day over the dark boy's realisation of his inferiority so young in life! We are silly, we grown-ups, aren't we.'? The man was surprised at my outburst. He looked at me smiling. 'I know all about the game,' he said. 'The boys are brothers - my sons.' He pointed to a handsome brown woman on the verandah who had just come out to call in the children. 'That's my wife', he said. I smiled. My spirit laughed within me. This is Jamaica, I said in my heart, this is my country - my people. I looked at the white man. He smiled at me. 'We'll miss the tram if we don't hurry,' he said. Now, answer the following questions.

An elderly carpenter was ready to retire. He told his employer-contractor of his plans to leave the house-building business to live a more leisurely life with his wife and enjoy his extended family. He would miss the pay check each week, but he wanted to retire. They could get by. The contractor was sorry to see his good worker go and asked if he could build just one more house as a personal favour. The carpenter agreed. But over time it was easy to see that his heart was not in his work. He resorted to shoddy workmanship and used inferior materials. It was an unfortunate way to end a dedicated career. When the carpenter finished his work, his employer came to inspect the house. Then he handed the front-door key to the carpenter and said, "This is your house my gift to you."" The carpenter was shocked! What a shame! If he had only known that he was building his own house, he would have done it all so differently. So it is with us. We build our lives, a day at a time, often putting less than our best into the building. Then, with a shock, we realize we have to live in the house we have built. If we could do it over, we would do it much differently. But, you cannot go back. You are the carpenter, and every day you hammer a nail, place a board, or erect a wall. Someone once said, "Life is a do-it-yourself project." Your attitudes, and the choices you make today, help build the "house" you will live in tomorrow. Therefore, build wisely!

(5 marks) PAPER - II Summative Assessment Time: 2 Hours 45 Minutes Marks: 40 Section - A READING COMPREHENSION (Questions 1-7): Read the following passage. Manorama Year Book-2009 The Year of Environment - Sunita Narain This is the age of environment. I say this because environmental concerns - domestic and global - are defining the way of our economy and our everyday life. We know that the world is battling different but linked developments. The oil price is rising every week, crippling economic growth, as we know it and forcing governments to look for new answers to conservation. Then, prices of food are skyrocketing, which in turn is leading to conflict in poor countries, dependent on imports. Added to these two pains is the beginning signs of climate change in many parts of the world, in the form of intensified tropical cyclones, variable and extreme weather events like heavy rains leading to floods, bitter cold spells and frost that fails crops. The world search for answers is leading to new problems. The rising price of oil (and its politics of ownership) is leading governments to discuss the imperative of national energy security. Climate change is forcing the same issue by demanding alternatives to fossil fuel use. The answer from both fronts has been to subsidise the growing of bio-fuels - ethanol from maize and sugarcane and biodiesel from edible oil crops. The scale and pace of this change are phenomenal. In the last few years, the US alone has diverted about 20 percent of its maize crop to biodiesel, and so the price of maize has increased by 60 percent. Similarly, a European Union mandate, of a 6 percent use of bio-fuel in the transport sector by 2010, is diverting land from food to fuel and increasing volatility of the prices of oilseeds and their substitutes. Now, answer the following questions. Each question has four choices. Choose the correct answer and write (A), (B), (C) or (D) in your answer booklet. (4 1 = 4 marks) 1. According to the passage... things are defining our economy? A. domestic problems B. environmental problems C. tropical cyclones D. sudden demand of biofuels 2.

What is not the appropriate reason for sudden increases of food prices? A. imports and exports of the nation B. intensified tropical cyclones C. bitter cold spells and frost that fails crops D. heavy rains leading to floods 4. What type of text is the passage?
