1. Read the following passage and
make notes in the appropriate formal. (15)
'The perpetual cycle of change which has created the face
of the Earth, with all its rugged and
Fascinating variety usually happens too slowly to be
noticed. But occasionally it is rapid and
Violent. Volcanoes disgorge molten lava, earthquakes rip
open the landscape, landslides, carry away
Whole mountainsides. Then human beings become aware of
the awesome forces that are shaping
Their planet. These forces are fuelled by three powerful
sources of energy - heat from within the Earth, heat from the Sun, and the
force of gravity. Every landform in the world has been shaped by these ttu.ee energy
sources. 'the continents that drift across the surface of the globe, setting
off volcanoes and earthquakes and Building mountains. are driven by heat from
the Earth's interior which has a temperature of about 5000"C (9000'F).
Most of this heat is created by the breakdown of
radioactive elements. Earth is unique among the planets of the Solar System in
having liquid water on the surface and water has a major role in shaping the
planet. The warmth of the Sun evaporates water from seas
and lakes. The vapor rises and condenses to form clouds
and then falls again as rain and snow. It
is then that its landscaping powers begin, weathering
rocks and washing away the loose material. or
grinding down the landscape under the power of a glacier.
The Sun's heat also produces the rain
and the waves that scour the land.
The third force - gravity - causes the tides, which
nibble away at the edges of continents, and
landslides. which alter the shape of mountains. Under the
influence of gravity. rain works its way
downwards as streams and rivers, carving the terrain. On
its journey, it carries fragments of rock
and sand to be deposited on the ocean floor. And over
thousands of years more rock which may
then be buckled and lifted up by movement of the Earth's
crust to form new mountains. {source:

Solution:
Wonders of planet earth
1 Point of discussion
·
Wonders of planet earth which not seen by human
beings
·
Bcoz of volcanoes humans became aware of the
things beneath the planet.
·
How volcano and earthquks came into existence.
2 Sources of energy for earth
·
There are three sources of energy
·
Heat from sun, heat widin the earth and force of
gravity
·
These sources leads to volcanoes and earthquks
3 How it all works
·
Heat widin the earth throws out lava when
overheated
·
Heat from sun evaporates water and leads to rain
fall which plays imp role in shaping the planet.
·
Gravity causes the tides which nibble away at
the edges of the continents which alter the shape o f mountain.
KEYS
Bcoz= because
Earthquks= earthquakes
Widin= within
Imp= important

2.
Write a summary of the passage given above and suggest an appropriate
title. (15)
Solution:
Wonders of planet earth
In the above
passage the author is talking about the wonders of earth which are not known to
the people and are now coming in the eyes of people slowly. He is talking about the powers of the earth
which are within it and are coming out through sources like volcanoes. Volcano
has a huge amount of heat which it throws out when overheated.
Our planet
has three sources of heat energy they can be heat from within the earth, heat
from sun and force of gravity. These three sources of energy play a vital role
in forming the volcanoes and earth quakes. These sources generate as many as
heat as 5000 degree C which is equal to 9000 degree F. most of the heat is
created by breakdown of radioactive elements.
He also
explains how the water cycle on earth works. Water on earth gets evaporated and
goes to sun which forms the clouds in sky and at a time it comes back in the form
of rain or snow fall. Thus here also heat
energy works for the supply of rain.
The third
source of energy also plays a vital role in framing earth’s natural beauties.
Here gravity forms tides and allows flowing rain in the direction of streams n
rivers which carries fragment of rocks and sand to be deposited on the ocean
floor and over thousands of years more rock which may
Then be buckled and lifted up by
movement of the Earth's crust to form new mountains.
3.
Write a paragraph of 100-150 words on any one of the following topics: (10)
1) Laughter is the best medicine.
2) Travel broadens the mind.
3) Learning a new
language.
4) Mobile phone: curse or blessing?
Solution:
Mobile
phone:curse or blessing?
Mobiles
phones have become one of the best gifts that humanity has ever received in the
twenty first century because of its numerous benefits. It is a fact that having
a mobile phone nowadays is a sort of a necessity and it is an inevitable truth
that the mobile industry is taking everyone by storm. A mobile phone is a
device with so many advantages contributing convenient living for both the old
and young generations but, is everything about the mobile phone a blessing?
Recently, a division of the World Health Organization classified cell phones as
a "possible carcinogen." This means that though no definite link has
been established between cell phone use and some form of cancer, there's enough
evidence that the group believes more research is needed. But the report stated
clearly that cell or mobile phones radiation might cause cancer to the human
brain. The WHO's International Agency for Research on Cancer has now tied
mobile phone radiation to an increased risk for “glioma brain tumors”.
4. Write a composition of 250-300 words based
on any one of the pictures given below: (20)
Solution:
OUR PLANET...
The most accurate world map is a
globe. Like the planet Earth, a globe is shaped as a ball. When you look at a
globe you can truly see the way the world looks in all of its complexity. All
the countries are shown in true size relative to each other. You can see how
far apart different cities are, and you can learn what time it is in another
part of the world.
Why are globes so much more accurate
than flat maps of the world? If you peeled the paper off a globe and tried to
lay it out on a table like a map, you'd have a hard time. The map would have
all sorts of gaps in it. But that's essentially what cartographers have been
trying to do for hundreds of years. On some flat maps, pieces of land near the
North Pole look larger than they are in reality. For example, Antarctica
stretches across the bottom of a flat map when it is really a circular
continent. Of course, flat maps can be very useful; you cannot put a globe in
your pocket while you are traveling. But if you want to "think
globally," it is obvious that a globe is what you need.
Even thousands of years ago, people saw things happening around them everyday that couldn't be explained by the theory of a flat world. If the world was flat, why did the sun always come up every morning in the east and go down every evening in the west? And why did the stars move in a circle in the night sky? These movements in the sky didn't prove that the world wasn't flat. But they gave clues about the real shape of the earth. More people in the ancient world came to believe that the world was a sphere.

Solution:
Development of parks
Sahil menon, member of committee
24th January 2013
Today on 24th
Jan all the committee members had a meeting regarding the development of parks
in our society and nearby area. We all the members have decided to develop all
the parks so that people in the society do not suffer any problem and can
safely use these parks as per their need.
Today in the
city there are hardly any parks which are safe for people and are need badly
need of improvisation. Old age people who are some sort of patient who are in
need of walking n regular jogging for their good health thus they need a safe
place where they can easily n freely have their walk. Girls n women who are
jogging early morning also demand a place where they are safe free to walk n
jog as per their requirement. According to the present condition girls do not
feel safe to go out at evening time because of the issues of rape in Delhi.
People in the locality demand for safer place for a stress free walk n jog
according to their schedule.
We can help
them developing park areas like creating a good greenery environment a good
walking path, keeping a security guard at the gate. And asking him not let
unknown person in and to keep an eye on everyone. If possible cameras must be
lodged at places where chances are more for any misbehavior.
We have
discussed all this point and believe some action to be taken soon.
