Q:26

Read following paragraph carefully and answer the questions that follows

The term co-operation loses its meaning when ‘co-operative’ become ‘competitive’ and just a firm of
retail shopkeepers, entering into rivalry with either similar co-operatives or private shops. In the
issue of licenses, permits, supplies, grants loans, etc. Government follows a general policy of
preferring co-operatives to private organizations. Since Government itself is run on party lines, this
has led to rival co-operatives, one favored by the party in power and the other trying to checkmate
it. To remedy this, one way would be to insist on having only one multi-purpose co-operative in one
unit, to eliminate all private dealers in distribution and to make membership in the co-operative
society compulsory for every householder. My feeling is that co-operatives, whether in selling,
purchasing or distributing should be restricted to carry on their operations for and among their
members only. They must not become commission agents or middlemen between nonmembers on
the one hand and Government or the world on the other.

Questions:

1)When does a co-operative lose its proper function?

2)What solution has been suggested by the writer to overcome rivalry among co-operatives?

3)Why should membership be made compulsory for all householders?

4)The word ‘operation’ in the passage means…….. (choose most appropriate meaning of the
following) :

• Management

• A surgical procedure

• Work

Q:27

Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions that follow it.

For centuries, people have been playing kicking games with a ball. The game of soccer developed
from some of these early games. The English probably gave soccer its name and its first set of rules.
In European countries, soccer is called football or association football. Some people believe that the
name "soccer" came from "assoc.," an abbreviation for the word association. Others believe that the
name came from the high socks that the players wear. Organized soccer games began in 1863. In
soccer, two teams of eleven players try to kick or head the ball into their opponents’ goal. The
goalie, who tries to keep the ball out of the goal, is the only player on the field who is allowed to
 L.J. Institute of Engineering & Technology Semester: I (2016-17)

touch the ball with his or her hands. The other players must use their feet, heads, and bodies to
control the ball. Every four years, soccer teams around the world compete for the World Cup. The
World Cup competition started in 1930. Brazil is the home of many great soccer players, including
the most famous player of all, Pelé. With his fast footwork, dazzling speed, and great scoring ability,
Pelé played for many years in Brazil and then later in New York. During his 22 years in soccer, he
scored 1,281 goals and held every major record for the sport.

Questions:

1)How did football come to be known as soccer?

2)Who is the only player in the game who can touch the ball with hands?

3)Who is Pele and why is he so famous?

4)Write a brief summary of the passage using only the most important details.

5)Is the author’s purpose in writing this article to entertain the reader, inform the

reader, or both? Use details from the article to support your answer.

Q:28

Read the passage and answer the following questions.

Do birds know how to come back home after a long flight? Bird scientists, known as ornithologists,
say that birds know exactly where they are and where their nests are. Even the young ones can fly
hundreds of nautical miles without losing their way. How do they do it? God has given them a
tremendous sense of direction; possibly they have a compass of sorts in their brain. Every year, we
can see birds from north India fly to the south. In India we have several bird sanctuaries where birds
from both parts of the globe come, spend a few months and return when the climatic conditions in
their homeland are more favorable. When it is winter in the northern hemisphere it is summer in the
southern hemisphere. The birds which cannot stand the cold climate fly to the warmer regions. They
are called migratory birds. They can fly non-stop up to twenty hours or so in one stretch and cover a
few hundred miles in one stop. The migratory birds always fly in groups.

Questions:

1 Who is an ornithologist?

2 What is a compass?

3 Why do we call some birds migratory birds?

4 Are the seasons the same in both hemispheres?

5 Do the migratory birds fly single or in groups?

 L.J. Institute of Engineering & Technology Semester: I (2016-17)

7 Find out similar words from the passage for

(a) many, (b) an area set aside for protection for animals or birds.

Q:29

Read the following paragraph and answer the questions that follow:

Conversation is indeed the most easily teachable of all arts. All you need to do in order to become a
good conversationalist is to find a subject that interests you and your listeners. There are, for
examples, numberless hobbies to talk about. But the important thing is that you must talk about the
other fellow’s hobby rather than your own. Therein lies the secret of your popularity. Talk to your
friends about the things that interest them, and you will get a reputation for good fellowship,
charming wit, and brilliant mind. There is nothing that pleases people so much as your interest in
their interests. It is just as important to know what subjects to avoid and what subjects to select for
good conversation. If you don’t want to be set down as a wet blanket or a bore, be careful to avoid
certain unpleasant topics. Avoid talking about yourself, unless you are asked to do so. People are
interested in their own problems, not in yours. Sickness or death bores everybody. The only one who
willingly listens to such talk is the doctor, but the gets payment for it. To be a good conversationalist,
you must know not only what to say, but how to say it. Be civil and modest. Don’t over- emphasize
your own importance. Be mentally quick and witty. But don’t heart others with your wit. Finally, try
to avoid mannerism in your conversation. Don’t bite your lips, or click your tongue, or roll your eyes,
or use your hands excessively as you speak. Don’t be like that Frenchman who said, “How can I talk if
you hold my hands?”

(i)What should you need to do in order to become a good conversationalist?

(ii)What should you talk to your friends about?

(iii)What should you not to do to become a good conversationalist?

(iv)Sickness or death bores everybody, yet, why is the doctor willingly listens about it?

(v)What did the Frenchman say?

(vi)Which word is used in the passage for “well mannered”?

(vii)Suggest a suitable title to this passage.

Q:30

Read the following paragraph and answer the questions that follow:

The growing importance of the internet for all forms of activism is highlighted in a new book from an
old-time internet commentator. Tom Watson is a US-based writer who shares a name and a
 L.J. Institute of Engineering & Technology Semester: I (2016-17)

commitment to the transforming power of the network with the British MP and Cabinet Office
minister, but comes from the East Coast rather than the West Midlands. A decade ago he was one of
the editors of @NY, a groundbreaking e-mail newsletter that documented the rise and fall of the
new media scene in New York's "Silicon Alley". Since then he has distinguished himself as one of the
saner commentators on the growth of the new conversational media and the companies behind the
services so many of us use daily. A few years ago he got involved with the online philanthropy
organization Changing Our World, and in the book Cause wired he shares his experience and
understanding of the growth of what has been termed "peer-to-peer philanthropy". The book's strap
line is "Plugging In, Getting Involved, Changing the World", and Watson offers a range of examples of
the way in which the network is making new forms of fund-raising and activism possible. It
documents the outpouring of online support for the people of New Orleans at the time of Hurricane
Katrina through the campaign to obtain justice for Mukhtaran Bibi in Pakistan, via Barack Obama's
internet fund raising efforts. It's a fascinating read, not least because the principles he outlines for
effective online organizing are based on his own experiences. "Small but well connected can be
more effective than huge and widely disbursed", for example, is something many online community
organizers could benefit from realizing, as is the call to "invest in conversations". As with many US
writers he seems to believe in the power of the market to solve all our problems and has little time
for regulatory or government-based solutions to problems. He lauds Kiva.org for providing
equipment for US schools instead of asking why public funding was not adequate in the first place,
and sees the network as a way to encourage philanthropy rather than social justice. But he has
clearly identified the ways in which the network is making a difference, and given us a valuable
primer in the ways in which those who want to change the world can make effective use of the tools
and services now available. As Karl Marx might have noted, if he were around now, the technologists
have only wired up the world in various ways. The point, however, is to change it.

Questions:

1) What information you get about @NY from the paragraph?

2) What does the word PHILANTHROPY in the paragraph mean?

3) What do you understand by "Small but well-connected can be more effective than huge and
widely disbursed"?
