Bertrand Russell appeals to all concerned as human being, a member of the species man,
whose continued existence is in doubt. A war with the hydrogen bombs put an end to the
human race. In his view, it seems that the ‘general public’ have not realised the real impact
of a war with atomic bombs. A hydrogen bomb is 25,000 times as powerful as that which
destroyed Hiroshima. So the stark, dreadful and inescapable problem before us is whether
we shall put an end to the human race or if we shall give up wars. He explains in great detail
the role of ordinary people in the peace process and requests the ‘general public’ to be more
aware and assertive so that the fate of the nations need not be decided by despotic leaders
alone.

Gary Chapman in his book, Love as a Way of Life uses the vivid metaphor for words
as being either ‘bullets or seeds’. If we use our words as bullets with a feeling of superiority
and condemnation, we are not going to be able to restore a relationship to love. If we use our
words as seeds with a feeling of supportiveness and sincere good will, we can rebuild a
relationship in positive and life-affirming ways.
When we need to talk candidly about something difficult with another person, we
must focus on the conversation with keen attention and purpose. During the
conversation, we must listen patiently, speak tactfully, and tell the truth as we understand
it. We must align our words, voice inflection and tone, eye expression, body language,
and actions with our inner awareness in an honest exchange.

VI. Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions that follow: [5  1= 5]
I am seldom considered, though I do more to influence everything about you than
virtually any one thing in your life. I often control the time you get up in the morning, the
time you go to sleep, what you eat and drink and the very thought that runs through your
head. I can make you happy or sad, loving or hateful, cheerful or remorseful, congenial or
spiteful and in doing so, control the very capacity that you have for success. Often at times
unable to find anyone else to blame you look for shortcomings within yourself on which to
lay the blame. When my impact on your life fully is considered in your every thought and
action, when you are mindful of my awesome power, when you narture and groom me for
positive use in your life, I can become more contagious than the most prolific disease ever
witnessed by man. My influence will spread to every person you come in contact with
Groomed and nurtured in a positive manner there will be no person or obstacle that can stand
in the way of my success or fail to be impacted for the better. ‘I am Your Attitude’.

Whenever I hold a strategic planning session, the first value that all the executives
agree on is integrity. Leaders know that honesty and integrity are the foundations of
leadership. Leaders stand up for what they believe in. For example, Jon Huntsman is a
multi-billionaire who started a chemical company from scratch and grew it into a $12 billion
enterprise. His book, Winners Never Cheat, is filled with stories taken from his own
experience in which he steadfastly refused to compromised his principles. Huntsman says
that integrity is the reason that he has been as successful as he is. “There are, basically, three

kinds of people, the unsuccessful, the temporarily successful, and those who become and
remain successful. The difference is character” –he writes. Leaders within tegrity are not
afraid to face the truth. This is called the reality principle, or “seeing the world as it really is,
not as you wish it to be.” It is perhaps the most important principle of leadership and
dependent on integrity because it demands truthfulness and honest.

VI. Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions that follow: [5  1= 5]
Throughout the 1700’s and 1800’s continual rebellion occurred as the Indian people
tried to drive the British out. The British government took control of the East India
Company after a large rebellion in 1857. Conditions for the sepoys, Indian soldiers in the
British army, caused unrest among them. They had lower pay than the Indians of the upper
caste and saw discrimination in matters of privilege and promotion by the British officers.
The situation which finally pushed the soldiers to rebel was that tallow from cows and lard
from pigs were put into the gun cartridges. The soldiers had to bite off the tallow or wax
before putting them into their rifles. This offended both Muslims and Hindus for religious
reasons. Mangal Pandy, a 29-year-old sepoy played a key role in Sepoy mutiny. He urged
the other sepoys to revolt against the British. Most of these rebels were defeated by spring,
1859. However, the revolt brought about great changes in relations between India and
Britain.
1) Who took control of East India Company after the rebellion in 1857?
2) According to the passage, what does the word ‘sepoy’ mean?
3) Who played a key role in sepoy mutiny?
4) Which brought changes in relationship between India and British?
5) What is the antonym for the word, ‘rebel’?
VII. Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions that follow: [5  1= 5]
Gary Chapman in his book, Love as a Way of Life uses the vivid metaphor for words
as being either ‘bullets or seeds’. If we use our words as bullets with a feeling of superiority
and condemnation, we are not going to be able to restore a relationship to love. If we use our
words as seeds with a feeling of supportiveness and sincere good will, we can rebuild a
relationship in positive and life-affirming ways.
When we need to talk candidly about something difficult with another person, we must
focus on the conversation with keen attention and purpose. During the conversation, we
must listen patiently, speak tactfully, and tell the truth as we understand it. We must align
our words, voice inflection and tone, eye expression, body language, and action with our
inner awareness in an honest exchange.
1) What is the title of the book written by Gary Chapman?
2) How does the writer describe words?
3) How can we rebuild a relationship in positive and life- affirming ways?
4) What is the noun form of the word ‘patiently’?
5) Find a word in the passage which means the same as the word ‘frankly’.

VI. Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions that follow: [5  1= 5]
Rabindranath Tagore’s family’s outlook on religion and life was influenced by the
Upanishads and the Bhavavadgita. When Rabindranath was twelve and went to the
Himalayas with his father, they chanted the Upanishads together. His father insisted that he
should know the verses by heart. Rabindranath Tagore’s writings are full of references to the
Upanishads.
The Upanishads are a collection of writings that were originally orally transmitted.
Upanishad literally means “sitting close to”, and implies listening closely to the mystic
doctrines of concepts such as: Salvation (moksha / mukti), ultimate reality (Brahman), the
individual soul (atman) religion, duty, essence (dharma). The Upanishads build the
foundation of what is called Vedanta (which means “the end of the Veda” – goal, conclusion,
highest aim).

VII. Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions that follow: [5  1= 5]
Many people think of bees simply as a summertime nuisance. But these small and
hardworking insects actually make it possible for many of your favorite foods to reach your
table. From apples to almonds to the pumpkin in our pumpkin pies, we have bees to thank.
Now, a condition known as Colony Collapse Disorder is causing bee populations to
plummer, which means, these foods are also at risk. In the United States alone, more than 25
percent of the managed honey bee population has disappeared since 1990. Researches think
this Colony Collapse Disrorder may be caused by Global warming, Pesticide use and Habitat
loss, Bees are one of a myriad of other animals, including birds, bats, beetles, and butterflies,
called pollinators. Pollinators transfer pollen and seeds from one flower to another,
fertilizing the plant so it can grow and produce food. Cross pollination helps at least 30
percent of the world’s crops and 90 percent of our wild plants to thrive. Without bees to
spread seeds, many plants – including food crops – would die off.

When he was born everyone ‘advised’ his parents to get rid of the kid as he was blind.
But his parents, who were not affluent by any counts, chose to take care of him, that too, to
the best of their abilities and gave him education. Forbes has named him in the list of super
achievers from Asia under the age of 30 but visually challenged Srikanth Bolla is in no mood
to celebrate. His goal is to get into the Forbes list of riches persons- and he won’t settle for
anything less.
Such is the determination of the 25 year-old, who was born blind and overcame all
adversities to become the first international blind student at the Massachusetts Institute of
Technology (MIT) and now heads a Rs 30 crore ($4.6 million) company.
Visiting manufacturing plants in different locations in Telangana and Karnataka,
attending business meetings and, in between, troubleshooting over the phone, the CEO of
Bollant Industries is a busy man.
Born in a family of farmers in Machilipatnam in Andhra Pradesh, life has been one long
struggle for him. After passing his Class 10 exam he chose the science stream for the plus-
two stage but was not permitted to write the Joint Entrance Exam for IIT-aspirants as he was
blind.
“I said when IIT doesn’t want me, I don’t want IIT either. Let me find the best
opportunity in the world – better than IIT. MIT being the top school in the world, I always
wanted to go there and I went there,” said Srikanth, who has a B.SC in management from
MIT.

2) What is the goal of Srikanth?
3) Why did Srikanth decide to study in MIT?
4) Write the antonym of ‘permit’.
5) Answer ‘True’ or False’.
Srikanth missed a great chance because he could not take the Joint Entrance Exam for IIT.

Tagore insisted that education should be imparted in an atmosphere of nature with all its
beauty, colours, sounds, forms and such other manifestations. In his opinion, education, in
natural surroundings, develops intimacy with the world and the power of communication
with nature. Nature, according to him, was manuscript of God. So he emphasized that
education must enable a person to realize his immediate relationship with nature. It should
help him to learn freely and spontaneously from the book of Nature. Since Nature never
betrays the heart that loves her, she will provide the child with spontaneous development and
natural growth.

VI. Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions that follow: [5  1= 5]
It is sad, but true, that many people focus on negative things. On the other hand, bees
are very optimistic. You’ll never find a bee saying. “Oh, I’d like to get some nectar, but that
flower has too many thorns!” Forget it…… the bees look right past the thorns and go straight
to the flower Instead of focusing on the negative, they’re always looking for that which is
sweet. Being positive also helps bees stay persistent when looking for nectar. Sometimes
they have to travel for miles to find a flower full of nectar. They also have to deal with
people shooing them away from their gardens. But have you noticed that they always come
right back? They’re focused on their mission of gathering sweet nectar, not the obstacles that
stand in their way. Like the bees, you should also be optimistic. Your attitude to others is
like a witness. You will always go after that which is positive and be a sweet example to
everyone around you.
1) What is the mission of the bees?
2) What do people focus on?
3) What do help the bees to stay persistent?
4) Find the word in the passage which means ‘continuing’.
5) Write the antonym of the word ‘optimistic’.

He architects of the Indian Republic hoped that, as secular ethos took roots, democratic
institutions spread and a secular-scientific out loop consolidated itself, the Indian society
would outgrow the evil of caste system. This did not happen. What has happened is the eh
India of our dreams began to undergo a radical re-definition. Our republican dreams are
being revised. A political engineering to perpetuate caste domination has gained gradual
ascendancy over the liberal- secular ideal of an egalitarian society. This has happened by
default. Today there is widespread cynicism on whether or not the war against caste is
winnable. Experiences spread over five decades of nation – building leave us in no doubt
that the evil of caste system will not wither away, unless the war against it is joined in a
tactical and practical way. Concrete measures have to be adopted and implemented;
foremost among them being inter-dining and inter – marrying.
