READING COMPREHENSION

WORK SHEET- A

Read the following passage and answer the questions given at the end:

Power foods are foods that provide rich levels of nutrients like fibre, potassium and minerals. Since
people becoming increasingly health conscious today, a lot of fitness experts encourage their clients to
include these food in their daily diet to increase muscle development. There are various ways of
incorporating power food in your daily diet. Of course the key to enjoying power food is proper
preparation of these foods, the use of season-fresh food, and identifying your choice of flavor among
power foods.

Some of the recommended power food combinations are those that are prepared in our kitchens on a
regular basis. Take for instance the combination of chickpeas and onions. This combination is a powerful
source if iron which is required by the body to transport oxygen to its various parts. Iron deficiency can
lead to anemia, fatigue, brain fog and tiredness. A study by the Journal of Agricultural and Food
Chemistry says that sulphur compound in onion and garlic help in the absorption of iron and zinc from
chickpeas. This combination is a hit with teenagers who need to be diligent about getting iron in their diet.
A quick way to prepare this power food is to make a chickpea salad with chopped onions, chaat masala
and cilantro.

Another favourite combination with power food takers is yoghurt and bananas. This makes for a
perfect snack after a rough game of football. Exercising burns giucose and thus lowers blood sugar.
Yoghurt is packed with proteins that help preserve muscle mass, and bananas are packed with
carbohydrates that help in refueling energy and preventing muscle soreness. A quick and easy recipe with
bananas is a banana smoothie topped with cool yoghurt.

Among beverages, green tea is the best source of catechins that are effective in halting oxidative
damage to cells. According to researchers at Purdue University, adding a dash of lemon juice to green tea
makes the catechins even more easily absorbable by the body. So the next time you are with your friends
serve them rounds if iced green tea with mint and lemon juice.

Answer the following questions:

1. What are power foods?

2. What is the advantage of including onions and garlic in our diet?

3. Why is yoghurt and bananas an enriching power food?

4. Why is green tea a recommended power food?


Read the following passage and answer the questions given at the end:

Cyber security researchers have developed a technique that can fight the ‘Heart bleed’ virus. The
device also traps hackers trying to steal sensitive data. This is a major breakthrough because the ‘Heart
bleed’ virus has sent alarm bells ringing across the globe, including India, as it can expose millions of
passwords, credit card numbers and other sensitive information to hackers.

A new device has been developed at the University of Texas in Dallas and has been named ‘Red
Herring’. The device automates a process whereby decoy servers are created making hackers believe that
they have gained access to confidential, secure information, when in fact their deeds are being monitored,
analyzed and traced back to the source.

The attackers think they are winning because the ‘Red Herring’ keeps them on the hook longer so the
server owner can attack them and their activities. Keeping them on longer also a way to discover what
these nefarious individuals are trying to do.

The ‘Heart bleed’ virus is said to have affected two-thirds of websites previously to be secured. These
are websites that use the computer code SSL to encrypt secure internet connections that are used for
sensitive purposes, such as online banking and purchasing, sending and receiving emails and remotely
accessing work networks.

But while the ‘Heart bleed’ virus is now in the process of being fixed victims face the challenge of not
knowing who may already be exploiting it to steal the information.

In the mean time, the ‘Red Herring’ device does not stop at being a decoy and blocker. It can also lead
to catching the attacker. As the attacker thinks he or she is stealing data, an analyst from the ‘Red Herring’
is tracking the attack to find out what information the attackers is after, how the malicious code works and
who is sending the code. In this way, the trackers can find their victim within hours.

Answer the following questions:

1. Why is the ‘Heart bleed’ virus regarded as dangerous globally?

2. How does the ‘Red Herring’ work?

3. What is the extent to which the virus has spread?

4. How can attackers be caught within hours?


Read the following passage and answer the questions given at the end:

The pioneers of the teaching of science imagined that its   introduction into education would
remove the conventionality, artificiality, and backward-lookingness which were characteristic; of
classical studies, but they were gravely disappointed. So, too, in their time had the humanists
thought that the study of the classical     authors in the original would banish at once the dull
pedantry and superstition of mediaeval scholasticism. The professional   schoolmaster was a match
for both of them, and has almost managed to make the understanding of chemical reactions as dull
and as dogmatic an affair as the reading of Virgil's Aeneid.

    The chief claim for the use of science in education is that it   teaches a child something about the
actual universe in which he is    living, in making him acquainted with the results of scientific 
discovery, and at the same time teaches him how to think logically and inductively by studying
scientific method. A certain limited   success has been reached in the first of these aims, but
practically none at all in the second. Those privileged members of the community who have been
through a secondary or public school education may be expected to know something about the
elementary physics and chemistry of a hundred years ago, but they probably know hardly more
than any bright boy can pick up from an interest in wireless or scientific hobbies out of school
hours.

    As to the learning of scientific method, the whole thing is palpably a farce. Actually, for the
convenience of teachers and the requirements of the examination system, it is necessary that the
pupils not only do not learn scientific method but learn precisely the reverse, that is, to believe
exactly what they are told and to reproduce it when asked, whether it seems nonsense to them or
not. The way in which educated people respond to such quackeries as spiritualism or astrology, not
to say more dangerous ones such     as racial theories or currency myths, shows that fifty years of
education in the method of science in Britain or Germany has produced no visible effect whatever.
The only way of learning the method of science is the long and bitter way of personal experience,
and, until the educational or social systems are altered to make this possible, the best we can
expect is the production of a minority of people who are able to acquire some of the techniques of
science and a still smaller minority who are able to use and develop them.

1. The author implies that the 'professional schoolmaster' (line 7) has


A. no interest in teaching science 
B. thwarted attempts to enliven education 
C. aided true learning 
D. supported the humanists 
E. been a pioneer in both science and humanities.

2. The author’s attitude to secondary and public school education in the sciences is
A. ambivalent 
B. neutral 
C. supportive 
D. satirical 
E. contemptuous

3. The word ‘palpably’ (line 24) most nearly means


A. empirically 
B. obviously 
C. tentatively 
D. markedly 
E. ridiculously

4. The author blames all of the following for the failure to impart scientific method through the
education system except
A. poor teaching 
B. examination methods 
C. lack of direct experience 
D. the social and education systems 
E. lack of interest on the part of students

5. If the author were to study current education in science to see how things have changed since he
wrote the piece, he would probably be most interested in the answer to which of the following
questions?
A. Do students know more about the world about them? 
B. Do students spend more time in laboratories? 
C. Can students apply their knowledge logically? 
D. Have textbooks improved? 
E. Do they respect their teachers?

6. Astrology (line 31) is mentioned as an example of


A. a science that needs to be better understood 
B. a belief which no educated people hold 
C. something unsupportable to those who have absorbed the methods of science 
D. the gravest danger to society 
E. an acknowledged failure of science

7. All of the following can be inferred from the text except


A. at the time of writing, not all children received a secondary school education 
B. the author finds chemical reactions interesting 
C. science teaching has imparted some knowledge of facts to some children 
D. the author believes that many teachers are authoritarian 
E. it is relatively easy to learn scientific method.

Answer:  ____________

STATEMENT OF PURPOSE (SAMPLE)


A desire to extend my knowledge and an enthusiasm to solve the demanding problems faced
by the industry today, motivated me to pursue Master’s in Networking. I believe that my
educational background has instilled in me the qualities required to meet the rigor of this
demanding course, and subsequently, the profession. I bring along with me a strong grasp of
fundamentals in Electronics, unique but relevant work experience, along with a desire to learn,
a penchant for teamwork and leadership, and a zest for challenges. My first biggest decision
which set the path for my career was choosing Electrical Engineering as my field of study even
though my parents were against it. Being the owner of a manufacturing company in the FMCG
industry; I remember the day I and my father had an argument about what I should do with my
life. While he wanted me to pursue Business Management, I always had a desire to know how
things work, wanted to learn by experience & yearned to solve challenging problems. Ever since
the day my father brought our first television set home, I have had a peculiar interest in
knowing how one could fit an entire world into such a small box. A few other insanely
inquisitive questions led me to choose to study Electrical Engineering, and I still believe that it is
the smartest thing I have ever done. I am deeply inspired & motivated by my professor Dr.
Rama Chandran, who is very well known in the country for his contributions to the Department
of Telecommunications, Government of India., Upon his advice, I decided to pursue, and
thereby developed an interest in “Networking” during my third year. The courses “Computer
Networks” and “High Speed Networks” coupled with my summer internship at Vodafone,
where I handled Routers and Servers, made me realize how much interested I am in
“Networking”. Consequently, I chose to specialize in Networking. My interest further aligned
me to design a Bluetooth Personal Area Network for controlling and monitoring the functioning
of all the devices connected to the same network. Towards this, I chose to take “TCP/IP
Networking” and “Network Security and Cryptography” as part of my coursework during my
fourth year. My interest in these courses reflected in my GPA, standing at 9.6 on a scale of 10 in
these subjects. I also began increasing my cognizance about Computer Networks by collecting
information from the internet and reading research papers which soon turned into a passion for
me. I also worked on two projects during my third year. The first was “Bluetooth using LAB
View” where I led a team of seven students. We used LABVIEW Bluetooth module to control
and transfer data from one device to another by varying the quarter wave antenna length
thereby increasing the range of the Bluetooth device. Although the increase in the range
compared to the battery consumption was not commercially viable, we were successful in
increasing the usage range of the Bluetooth device. Based on my interest towards networking, I
was placed in one of the largest telecommunication companies in my state, “Bharat Sanchar
Nigam Limited”, to undergo a very prestigious internship program which allowed me to work in
the company for the entire summer. A study on the company and its products, introduced to
me the importance of providing innovative solutions to satisfy the needs of the industry. I
concluded from my findings that in India, communication is relatively cheap and effective, and
also is an ever growing demand, but faces massive operational, infrastructural, and logistical
challenges. I hence worked on optimizing “PSTN Routing” by determining the most cost
effective way to route calls, which was lauded by my mentor engineers in the company, and
was implemented immediately. This gave me valuable insights into how companies operate the
necessity of good organizational structures and the significance of well-designed equipment
and strategy. In the near future, I see myself working in the Research & Development
department of a reputed company where I would get an opportunity to solve some of the
major challenges of the industry. I seriously consider pursuing a Doctoral Program (PhD) at a
later stage, in order to further my knowledge of the industry. Towards this, I chose to pursue
Master’s in Computer Networks from the A.B.C College of Engineering and Computer Science -
Department of Electrical Engineering & Computer Science, University of Example, primarily
because the school’s strength lies in Networking and Cyber security, which closely
commensurate my research interests and, hence would help me achieve my career goals.
Furthermore, I am particularly interested in Professor Peter K. Mourinho’s work and believe
that his contribution to multiband cognitive radio networks will be vital in the years to come.
Also, his work is in line with my interests and current training level, making it an ideal choice for
me. I will be more than honored if I can earn a spot in his next research group. The well reputed
course, experienced faculty and world class facilities are an added advantage. I would fully
utilize the resources that the Wallenberg Hall provides, as I am particularly interested in the
field of Networking. The special 24/7 laboratories provided for student research on Routers and
Signal Processing is exactly the kind of opportunity I am looking for, as I could totally see myself
working in the labs day and night. I also believe that my experience coupled with thorough
enthusiasm for research would make me a candidate for a Research Assistantship at your
institution. I have always believed in giving something back to the society. I remember my
mother telling me that helping others is the rent we have to pay for living on this wonderful
planet. That statement had a profound impact on me, and since that day, I have never turned
down an opportunity to pay it forward. Apart from little acts of kindness from childhood, I
recently joined “English for Everyone” (NGO) where I have been teaching the English
Curriculum developed by Oxford University to 30 economically backward kids for the past year
and a half. Though I joined as a teaching volunteer during the weekends, with constant
enthusiasm and efforts, I have been able to make an impact on the way my class learns, and I
consequently became the mentor of my batch of 30 volunteers, who teach to over 600
children. Given my experience in teaching, and an unquenchable thirst for Networking, a
Teaching Assistantship position at your institution would certainly further my interest and skills,
ahead of my future career objectives. I sincerely hope that I qualify all the requirements for
admission into your Graduate Program and that my application is favorably received by the
admissions committee.
