Section A 1. Read the text carefully and answer the questions: 1. In this jet age, everyone is interested in making easy money. Thanks to the advancement in science and technology. these days life has become easier and more comfortable than earlier with a lot of domestic gadgets as well as instantaneous food recipes available in the market. This has resulted in making people develop a mindset to have anything immediately without waiting even at the traffic signals. 2. Most of us want results quickly. We want to reach the top immediately and get worked up when things go wrong. Perseverance and patience are forgotten words. We get upset, frustrated, and angry when a skill or activity requires us to put in a lot of effort and time. We get dejected and want to give it up. Things should be easy. 3. Life is too short and there is not enough time to do all the things we want to. We tend to compare ourselves with others and get upset when they seem to be doing well and start believing God is being too kind to them and not to us. And so, we give up. But such thinking serves no purpose. For it doesn't solve the problem. 4. Success, real success, and happiness come to those who have a 'bread-making' attitude. I am taking for those who are willing to knead the dough, wait for hours for it to rise only to punch it down and knead some more, wait for another couple of hours for it to rise again, then bake it before it is ready to be eaten. Nothing is instantaneous. For every endeavor-whether in the area of career, academics, music, sports, relationships, physical fitness, or even in spirituality-it is a long arduous journey. 5. We can get results only if we are willing to spend time, put in painstaking effort, and have faith. If we don't accept this difficult but true fact of life, our lives will be far from being happy and fulfilling. For we may not make that extra effort that can change the course of life dramatically for our benefit. 6. However, if we just pause to analyze what we are doing, we will realize how much time we are wasting searching for such magical solutions which simply do not exist. We save time when we stop this futile search and accept the proven methods of treading the straight and narrow path however difficult it may seem initially. i. What has been credited in the passage for our easier and more comfortable life? ii. According to the passage, choose the correct statement from the following: a. Advancement in science and technology has resulted in the mind set to have things at their pace. b. Advancement in science and technology has resulted in the mind set to have things instantly and fast. c. Advancement in science and technology has resulted in the mind set to have things slowly and patiently. d. Advancement in science and technology has resulted in a give-up attitude. iii. List 1 way in which we can save our time as advised by the author. (1) ________. iv. Choose the prerequisites to get the desired results in life as per the passage: a. With perseverance and painstaking efforts. b. With utmost faith in mutual understanding. c. With deviated mind and fluctuations. d. By greasing the palms of others. v. Success, real success and happiness come to those who have a bread-making attitude. The bread-making attitude tells that: a. We should be absolutely inactive. b. It requires a skill in household chores. c. We should remain idle in order to taste success. d. We should be a man of patience in order to taste success. vi. Nothing in life is instantaneous. The underlined word can be replaced by the word ________ in the passage. vii. Select the best option from the following that can help us reach the top in life. a. Perseverance and patience b. Science and technology c. Dejection and frustration d. Analysis and magical solution viii. The author has stated the example of bread-making attitude to make us ________. 2. Read the text carefully and answer the questions: 1. Keep your watch accurate. For some people, moving up the time on their watch will help them get up earlier. For others, they will remember that the time on the watch is wrong and will disregard it altogether. It may be helpful to set your watch just two minutes ahead instead of five or ten. 2. Keep a clock, phone, computer or anything that displays time in each room of your house. One of the easiest ways to run late is simply by not realising that the time is passing as quickly as it is. 3. Set all your clocks and watches to the same time. Don't be an optimist. Things usually take longer than what you'd expect, even without major delays. If you have a dinner appointment at 7:30 p.m., don't think you can work till 7 p.m., then take a bath, dress and reach on time. Realistically, calculate the time you will take at each step and then add 10 minutes more to allow for unexpected delays, or you cannot get to your job done in time. 4. Wake up when you are supposed to wake up. Don't hit the snooze button, keep on lying in bed, and watch TV at the very start of your day. May be you can try even setting your clock 10 minutes earlier than you need. If you have difficulty with this, move your alarm clock to somewhere away from your bed; that way, you will have to get up to turn it off. Commit yourself to being 15 minutes early for everything. If you have to reach your place of work at 8:00, don't even tell yourself this. Just tell yourself (and everyone else who listens - but don't annoy them or make them think that they are late or early!) "I have to be at work at 7:45." If you do this, you will be on time even with little unforeseen delays. You will be on time even with a traffic jam. i. Complete the following analogy appropriately, based on your understanding of paragraph 3. We can say that the situation of people being optimist about things is comparable to students preparing only the important questions for the final exam leaving the textbook untouched because ________.ii. Fill the blanks with the appropriate option from those given in brackets, based on your understanding of paragraph 4.

Based on the given ideal schedule, what is the ideal time for the students to wake up and rest? v. State an inference about where the students spend their maximum time. vi.
