READING Read the passages and answer the questions that follow. Passage 1 I was so homesick during my first two weeks at St. Peter’s that I devised a way of getting myself sent back home. My idea was that I should all of a sudden develop an attack of acute appendicitis. When I reported my sickness to the teacher, I was sent to the Matron. I entered the room clutching my stomach on the righthand side and staggering pathetically. 'What's the matter with you boy?' the Matron shouted. 'It hurts, Matron,' I moaned. 'Oh, it hurts so much! Just here!' 'You've been overeating!' she barked. 'I haven't eaten a thing for days,' I lied. She began prodding my tummy violently with her fingers. I was watching her carefully, and when she hit what I guessed was the appendix place, I let out a yelp that rattled the windowpanes. 'Ow! Ow! Ow!' I cried out. 'Don't, Matron, don't!' Then I slipped in the clincher. 'I've been sick all morning,' I moaned. This was the right move. Within an hour, the doctor arrived and as he examined me, I did my yelping at what I thought were the proper times. The Matron returned half an hour later and said, ‘Your mother's coming to fetch you this afternoon. ' I didn't answer her. I just lay there trying to look very ill, but my heart was singing all sorts of wonderful songs. As I was taken home on a ferry, I felt so wonderful to leave that dreaded school building that I very nearly forgot I was meant to be ill. 21. The boy had been at St. Peter’s for (A) a week.

23. The boy’s illness was a __________________. (A) way to get Matron’s sympathy. (B) trick to get Matron to send him home. (C) real attack of appendicitis.

24. The sentence I’ve been sick all morning, means that the boy was (A) unwell during the night. (B) unwell always. (C) unwell during the day.

25. The boy wanted to go away from school because (A) he missed home. (B) the Matron was strict. (C) he wasn’t feeling well.

You may be surprised to learn that some of the largest species of sharks in the ocean are the nicest ones to encounter. There are 360 different species of sharks in the world. Some of the sharks we should be scared of are e.g. the Great white sharks. They have attacked more people than any other shark. Their average length is about 12 feet and weighs about 3,000 pounds. Great white sharks are also different from others because they can lift their heads out of the water. Similar to them in length are the Blue sharks. Blue sharks are the fastest swimming sharks and can even leap out of the water and they can eat almost anything and have attacked people too. Tiger sharks too have attacked people but they come second to Great white shark in attacking people. A different type of shark which can swim in salt and fresh water is Bull shark.

Gurab’s visit to Jim Corbett National Park To see a tiger in the wild is an unforgettable experience. They can be put on top of the list of the ‘Wonders of the World’. We waited for the overnight train from Old Delhi station to Ram Nagar. From there it’s a rough road for three hours to the remote environmentally green Jungle camp on the banks of Kosi, in the buffer zone of the Jim Corbett National Park. This lies in the north of India, in the state of Uttarakhand. Jim Corbett National Park is the oldest national park in India. The park is named after the hunter and conservationist Jim Corbett, who played a key role in its establishment. The park was established in 1936 and was originally known as Hailey National Park. We arrived thoroughly shaken and stirred by the bumpy ride in an open top jeep. The tented accommodation was clean and comfortable. A mosquito net covered the bamboo bed. There were no fans to cool us off or even any lamps. There was no provision for electricity. Only natural resources were used. One afternoon we rode Ganga the elephant for her daily bath. We rolled up our trousers and jumped into the water to give her a good scrub. Once Ganga had dried off in the sun and had given herself a thorough scratch with a branch, we rode her back. Late at night, snuggled up with my hot water bottle, listening to the sounds of the jungle, I knew that whether I got to see a tiger or not, it didn’t really matter. What mattered was to know that they were still out there in the wild. 33. How many days did Gurab stay in the Jungle camp?

(A) 2 days

(B) Overnight

Dogs are man’s best friends! Dog breeds are categorised into different groups, based on the purpose for which each dog is used. For hundreds of years dogs under the ‘hound’ group have assisted people in hunting for food and sport. They are tall and use their sharp eyesight to find prey and run it down to catch it. Some dogs under this group are known as ‘scent hounds’, as they have a keen sense of smell. Dogs under the ‘working’ dogs group are bred to help people in various things like protecting people, transporting goods, pulling carts, search and rescue operations, etc. These dogs are large and powerful. Some dogs are very small in size and these dogs are very good watch dogs and have inexpensive maintenance requirements. These are good as pets and come under the ‘toy’ group. Other types of small dogs which are very sturdy and can dig the ground when hunting for vermin come under the Terrier group. The word ‘terrier’ is derived from Latin word that means ‘earth’. Finally, dogs under the ‘herding’ group have assisted humans for hundreds of years in taking care of flocks and herds of animals. These dogs stalk, bark, push, nip at heels and help drive livestock into groups. 38. Some dogs come under the terrier group because _________________.

READING FOR QUESTIONS 19 TO 23, READ THE PASSAGE AND ANSWER THE QUESTIONS. Sculpture warriors In 1974, farmers digging a well in Xian, China, found some pottery which led archaeologists to an underground palace for Emperor Shi Huang. It took about 7,20,000 workers at least 39 years to build the entire structure and many treasures were buried with the emperor. Thousands of terracotta soldiers have been standing guard for the past two thousand years to protect the burial site and these sculpture warriors are an amazing sight. These life-size pottery soldiers have hollow bodies and only the legs of the soldiers are solid pottery.

Each soldier weighs about 250 pounds and the warriors do not all look alike; they have different ears, noses, hairstyles, beards and moustaches. There are soldiers in different positions: standing, sitting and kneeling and soldiers who look proud, angry, kind and even timid. The designs and the colours of the clothing are different as well. Some warriors were sculpted wearing armour while others carry different weapons, such as metal spears, swords, or wooden weapons. The emperor wanted his grave to be guarded for all eternity by a replica of his own army. Over time, most of the colour has faded from the uniforms which may have been originally painted bright red or green.

4th IEO - Set A

Other things found at the site included lifesize chariots and horses made of bronze. The horses have large nostrils and big eyes and look like they are waiting to go into battle! In reality, however, liquid mercury was used to keep away intruders. Many people think that Emperor Shi Huang’s tomb is the eighth wonder of the world. 19. How was the tomb of Emperor Shi Huang discovered?

A. Statues of horses were found near a well. B. Farmers were digging a well. C. Archaeologists found a map of its location. D. A chariot was found on a farm

20. Which of the following is not mentioned in the passage?

A. The terracotta soldiers weigh about 250 pounds. B. Qin Shi Huang was the first emperor of China. C. The tomb is the eighth wonder of the world. D. The soldiers have different facial features.

FOR QUESTIONS 24 TO 28, READ THE PASSAGE AND ANSWER THE QUESTIONS. The Statue of Liberty The Statue of Liberty that greets people at New York harbour was a gift of friendship from France to the United States of America and the official name for it is ‘Liberty Enlightening the World’. The statue stands 305 feet from the ground to the top of the torch and Lady Liberty, as the statue is often called, is made of copper. The idea to build it began in 1865 when Fredric Bartholdi, a French sculptor was asked to design a statue to celebrate the birth centenary of the United States in 1876. Bartholdi used a live model to create a small version of the statue which was then used as the design for the real statue. The pedestal for the statue was made by American workers. The statue cost both France and the United States a lot of money and there were many problems with funding and construction. A public lottery was held in France and in America, Joseph Pulitzer, the owner of a newspaper, urged people to donate generously though people who lived outside of New York thought that only New York should pay for it. Soon, however, money began pouring in. Bartholdi too had troubles of his own in creating the statue and he hired an engineer named Gustave Eiffel to help him with the statue’s steel skeleton. Later, Eiffel would go on to build the famous Eiffel Tower in Paris. All these setbacks caused delay and the statue was not completed until 1884.


5

4th IEO - Set A

It was delivered in 1885 in 350 pieces and took American workers four months to put it together. The statue was dedicated in 1886 by President Grover Cleveland. Since then, the statue has had many repairs and improvements. In 1986, a layer of gold was added to the torch and visitors today can view Lady Liberty from the pedestal and they can even go into her crown or torch. The Statue of Liberty stands as a symbol of liberty and is a very special gift from Paris. 24. The word ‘pouring in’ in the passage means _________ . A. coming in slowly B. coming little-by-little C. coming in generous amounts D. coming steadily 25. Why was 1876 chosen as the year to design the statue? A. To allow enough time for shipping her to the United States.

B. To celebrate the United States becoming 100 years old. C. To give France time to raise money. D. To wait till the Eiffel tower was built.

26. Which of the following was a problem during the statue’s creation? A. Politics between France and the United States B. The War for Independence C. A copper shortage D. Lack of money 27. Who urged wealthy Americans for not giving money? A. President Cleveland B. Gustave Eiffel C. Joseph Pulitzer D. Fredric Bartholdi 28.

READING FOR QUESTIONS 20 TO 24, READ THE LETTER AND ANSWER THE QUESTIONS THAT FOLLOW. FLIGHT OF THE SOLAR DUCKS By Charles Morgan The Gunge Hole, that’s what Dad had named it a long time ago. Aracuria looked around. As far as the eye could see there was rubbish; discarded tin cans, fridges, aerosols, clothes, cardboard boxes, old TVs broken stereos, rolls of waste tubes and, here and there, chemical bins. The air was filled with flying bin-liners carried on the wind. Aracuria knew that things hadn’t always been like this, but it was very difficult to find out the truth about the past.

Dad had always said that when he was a kid things had been worse, but mum said that they were better. In the South, all the land was covered in rubbish, but in the North there was no rubbish at all. In the South everyone worked at recycling waste, but in the North people worked in offices or in fields, or just spent their time walking on the beaches. In the South everyone ate the yellow stuff so that they could not smell the rubbish while in the North they had egg and chips or beef-burgers and cream cakes. In the South people lived in chemical bins, but in the North they lived in houses made of stone or wood. And no one knew why.

WIND IN THE WILLOWS By Kenneth Grahame ‘He must be a very nice animal’, observed the Mole, as he got into the boat and took the sculls, while the Rat settled himself comfortably in the stern. ‘He is indeed the best of animals’ replied Rat. ‘So simple, so good-natured, and so affectionate. Perhaps he’s not very clever - we can’t all be geniuses; and it may be that he is both boastful and conceited. But he has got some great qualities, has Toady.’ Rounding a bend in the river, they came in sight of a handsome, dignified old house of mellowed red brick, with well-kept lawns reaching down to the water’s edge. ‘There’s Toad Hall’, said Rat; ‘and that creek on the left, where the notice board says, ‘Private. No landing allowed’, leads to his boat-house, where we’ll leave the boat. The stables are over there to the right. That’s the banqueting-hall you’re looking at now - very old, that is. Toad is rather rich, you know, and this is really one of the nicest houses in these parts, though we never admit as much to Toad.’ They glided up the creek, and Mole slipped his sculls as they passed into the shadow of a large boat- house. Here they saw many handsome boats, slung from the cross-beams or hauled up on a slip, but none in the water; and the place had an unused and a deserted air. The Rat looked around him. ‘I understand’, said he, ‘boating is played out. He’s tired of it, and done with it. I wonder what new fad he has taken up now?’

High in the air Aracuria could see one of the giant refuse transport planes which flew over every five minutes, day and night, depositing their cargo of rubbish. The really odd thing was that all the rubbish was made by the North and dumped in the South. The South didn’t dump rubbish in the North. 20.

A. her father wouldn’t tell her about it B. her parents fought about it C. her mother and father said different things D. her parents didn’t remember
