(Teacher should give the questions before reading the passage given below)
There are two problems which cause great worry to our educationists – the problem of
religious and moral instruction in a land of many faiths and the problem arising out of a large
variety of languages.
Taking up the education of children we see that they should be trained to love one another,
to be kind and helpful to all, to be tender to the lower animals and to observe and think right.
The task of teaching them how to read and write and to count and calculate is important, but
it should not make us lose sight of the primary aim of moulding personality in the right way.
For this it is necessary to call into aid, culture, tradition and religion. But in our country.
we have in the same school, to look after boys and girls born in different faiths and belonging
to families that live diverse ways of life and follow different forms of worship associated
with different denominations of religion. It will not do to tread the easy path of evading the
difficulty by attending solely to physical culture and intellectual education.
It is not right for us in India to be dissuaded from this by considerations as to overtaking
the young mind. What is necessary must be done and it is not in the fact too great a burden.
On the basis of reading the above passage, answer the following questions:
1. Which two problems have our educations to face?
2. What is the primary aim of the education of children?
3.How should the problem of religious and moral instruction be dealt with?
4. Which basic training is the writer talking about?

(Teacher should give the questions before reading the passage given below)
Isaac Newton figured out why objects fall to the ground and why the planets move the
way they do. Isaac Newton was born in Lincolnshire, England, in 1643. His father died
before he was born but, despite having a difficult childhood, he gained a place at Cambridge
University. When the plague broke out he was forced to stay at home and, with so much free
time on his hands, Newton started to wonder about what made things fall.
Newton said that he was inspired to think about forces when he saw an apple fall from a
tree. He came up with the theory of gravity, an invisible force that pulls all of the objects in
the Universe together, and the reason things don’t float off into the sky.
In 1685, Newton described his Laws of Motion – a mathematical guide to how an object’s
movement is affected by speed and mass. Two years later, Newton published his ideas about
gravity in a book which contains many of the foundations of modern science.
Newton also invented a new kind of telescope called a reflector. It used a mirror to collect
light instead of lenses, and was much more powerful than existing telescopes. He also
showed that white light was made up of all the colours of the rainbow.

1. Listen to the following passage and answer the questions give below it. 5 X 2 = 10
(Teacher should give the questions before reading the passage)
Some of us think that writing is only for writers. But writing is for all of us. As Julia
Cameron notes in her book The Right to Write: An Invitation and Initiation into the Writing
Life, “I believe we all come into life as writers.” Writing can be beneficial for all of us,
because it can be therapeutic. One of the most powerful parts of therapy is cultivating the
ability to observe our thoughts and feelings, said Elizabeth Sullivan, a licensed marriage and
family therapist in San Francisco. And that’s what writing helps us do.
“Most of us do not think in complete sentences but in self-interrupted, looping,
impressionistic cacophony,” she said. Writing helps us track our spinning thoughts and
feelings, which can lead to key insights (e.g., I don’t want to go to that party; I think I’m
falling for this person; I’m no longer passionate about my job; I realize how I can solve that
problem; I’m really scared about that situation.) Writing is “speaking to another
consciousness – ‘the reader’ or another part of the self. We come to know who we really are
in the present moment,” she said. Writing also creates a mind-body-spirit connection, she
said. “When you use your hands to pen or type something directly from your brain, you are
creating a powerful connection between your inner experience and your body’s movement
out in the world.” We hold worries, fears and memories in our bodies, Sullivan said. When
we use the body in positive ways – such as dancing or writing — we stay in the present
moment, we inhabit our bodies, and we can heal ourselves, she said. “Writing is a small
movement but it is incredibly powerful when you are writing down what is in your mind.”
Free writing or journaling is simply writing what’s on your mind. It’s letting it all
hang out without censoring yourself. According to Sullivan, this could be: “Today I woke up
and found the car window smashed and I wondered if the glass replacement guys go out at
night and do it.”
“Poetry is a natural medicine; it is like a homeopathic tincture derived from the stuff
of life itself–your experience,” writes John Fox in Poetic Medicine: The Healing Art of
Poem-Making.
Sullivan suggested writing a short letter to a loved one. Imagine this person has
written to you and asked you: “How are you doing, really?” Another exercise is to “write to
someone with whom you have ‘unfinished business’ without sending it.” The goal is for you
to gain a clearer understanding of your own thoughts and feelings about the person, she said.
Answer the following questions:
1. Why does Julia Cameron believe that we all come into life as writers
2. What is the most important therapeutic quality of writing?
3. Whose consciousness does a writer touch through his or her writing?
4. How does Elizabeth Sullivan describe our thinking? Why does she say so?
5. Which word in the passage means ‘a coarse unpleasant noise’?
