Q.2\u00a0 Make a pr\u00e9cis of the given passage and suggesta suitable title. (20+5)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Qualifying examinations, which decide eligibility for higher education, have varying influence on the students, their parents and teachers. Often, even very good performances in such examinations cannot ensure one a higher education of one’s choice. If the parents are anxious to see their children perform well in them, the students are under considerable pressure to do so. The teachers, on the other hand, see qualifying examination as an opportunity to earn money. Besides their regular jobs, many teachers work in private coaching institutions, or give special tuition to students who ask for it.<\/p>\n

But, despite the prevalence of qualifying examinations at different levels of education, the quality of education is rather unsatisfactory. Educational institutions rarely function as centres of human resource development. Moreover, the unhealthy social environment makes it difficult for students to focus their attention on learning and to improve their creativity. In other words, the poor state of education in the country is not so much due to the mistakes of the past, as it is the inability to rectify the drawbacks of the system and to improve it.<\/p>\n

In the present era of liberalisation, self-financing institutions have taken over the responsibility of education from the government. This shift in responsibility had denied the poor, suitable opportunities for an education. It has also increased the disparity in standards among the schools in the country, though for nearly fifty years, the call has been for a common, equitable school system.<\/p>\n

Education, to be useful, should be vocationalised. It should teach the people, the skills and the ideas necessary for self-reliant living. But in reality, opportunities for such education are limited and, therefore, difficult for the people to make use of them.<\/p>\n

Improving the quality of education is a difficult task. Reforming the examination methods is being tried at different levels of education, yet no encouraging change is visible. Malpractice, common in the examination system, is rarely criticised, and quite strangely, is now considered part of the system.<\/p>\n

The key to revive the education system is, however, with the teachers. Their sincerity and commitment to their profession are crucial for such a revival. The training and the selection of teachers, therefore, should be carried out with due care. The unhealthy practice of offering correspondence courses in teacher-training should be stopped. The institutions that offer these courses generally ignore such training as will enable the trainees to deal with students in the appropriate manner. The ills of the education system are such that, rather than simple, cosmetic changes, a thorough revamp is needed to eliminate them.<\/p>\n

From Plato to Tolstoy art has been accused of exciting our emotions and thus of disturbing the order and harmony of our moral life. \u201cPoetical imagination, according to Plato, waters our experience of lust and anger, of desire and pain, and makes them grow when they ought to starve with drought. \u201cTolstoy sees in art a source of infection. \u201cNot only in infection,\u201d he says, \u201cA sign of art, but the degree of infectiousness is also the sole measure of excellence in art.\u201d But the flaw in this theory is obvious. Tolstoy suppresses a fundamental moment of art, the moment of form. The aesthetic experience \u2013 the experience of contemplation \u2013 is a different state of mind from the coolness of our theoretical and the sobriety of our moral judgment. It is filled with the liveliest energies of passion, but passion itself is here transformed both in its nature and in its meaning. Wordsworth defines poetry as \u201cemotion recollected in tranquillity\u201d. But the tranquillity we feel in great poetry is not that of recollection. The emotions aroused by the poet do not belong to a remote past. They are \u201chere\u201d-alive and immediate. We are aware of their full strength, but this strength tends in a new direction.<\/p>\n

It is rather seen than immediately felt. Our passions are no longer dark and impenetrable powers; they become, as it were, transparent. Shakespeare never gives us an aesthetic theory. He does not speculate about the nature of art. Yet in the only passage in which he speaks of the character and function of dramatic art the whole stress is laid upon this point. \u201cThe purpose of playing,\u201d as Hamlet explains, \u201cboth at the first and now, was and is, to hold, as, ’twere, the mirror up to nature; to show virtue her own feature, scorn her own image, and the very age and body of the time his form and pressure.\u201d But the image of a passion is not the passion itself. The poet who represents a passion does not infect us with this passion. At a Shakespeare play we are not infected with the ambition of Macbeth, with the cruelty of Richard III, or with the jealousy of Othello. We are not at the mercy of these emotions; we look through them; we seem to penetrate into their very nature and essence. In this respect Shakespeare’s theory of dramatic art, if he had such a theory, is in complete agreement with the conception of the fine arts of the great painters and sculptors.<\/p>\n

Q.3.\u00a0 Read the following passage and answers the questions that follow.\u00a0 (20)<\/strong><\/p>\n

It is in the very nature of the helicopter that its great versatility is found. To begin with, the helicopter is the fulfilment of one of man’s earliest and most fantastic dreams. The dream of flying \u2013 not just like a bird \u2013 but of flying as nothing else flies, or has ever flown. To be able to fly straight up and straight down \u2013 to fly forward or back or sidewise, or to hover over and spot till the fuel supply is exhausted. To see how the helicopter can do things that are not possible for the conventional fixed-wing plane, let us first examine how a conventional plane \u201cworks.\u201d It works by its shape \u2013 by the shape of its wing, which deflects air when the plane is in motion. That is possible because air has density and resistance. It reacts to force. The wing is curved and set at an angle to catch the air and push it down; the air, resisting, pushes against the under surface of the wing, giving it some of its lift. At the same time the curved upper surface of the wing exerts suction, tending to create a lack of air at the top of the wing. The air, again resisting, sucks back, and this gives the wing about twice as much lift as the air pressure below the wing. This is what takes place when the wing is pulled forward by propellers or pushed forward by jet blasts. Without the motion the wing has no lift.<\/p>\n

Questions<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

(i)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Where is the great versatility of the helicopter found?
\n(ii)\u00a0\u00a0 What is the dream of flying?
\n(iii)\u00a0 What does the wing of the conventional air craft do?
\n(iv)\u00a0 What does the curved upper surface of the wing do?
\n(v)\u00a0\u00a0 What gives the wing twice as much lift?<\/p>\n

Contrast and variety \u2013 these are the very essence of caves. Caves are frequently described the networks of holes in the ground. This is true of course, but it is a rather callous way to speak of a unique and fascinating world. There is nothing on the surface of the Earth which is at all similar to this world below. Caves consist of miles of passages, great caverns hundreds of feet high and wide, with roaring stream passages and fabulously decorated stalactite and stalagmite chambers.<\/p>\n

There are even some rather nasty, muddy little tunnels \u2013 to fit the popular misguided concept of a cave. And until a caver wanders in with a lamp, this whole peculiar world is in total darkness.<\/p>\n

To many people, darkness is disturbing. And yet few can have experienced the absolute and total darkness of a cave. Beyond the entrance, there are no little chinks of light, no reflections, no glows from distant houses \u2013 there is no light at all. A hand held an inch in front of the face is totally invisible. The only lights are those that the caver takes in for himself. The helmet-mounted lamp moves around with the eyes and gives the false impression that the cave is lit all over, and not just in a tiny wedge in the beam of the lamp. Even a properly equipped caver will sometimes, perhaps while he is waiting alone for his colleagues, put out his lamp to experience the total darkness of caves. And it is a very odd experience: with no light at all, he has only his memory to tell him what surrounds him, he will probably soon feel cold, he may lose his sense of balance, and in a short time he may begin to feel uneasy. Only the really experienced caver can feel relaxed in this situation; most would shortly, almost involuntarily, turn on their light again.<\/p>\n

And then there is the silence. Many caves are complexly silent \u2013 an emotionless feature which matches the darkness. In others the sound of dripping water, or the dull rumble of a distant stream, or even the tremendous roar of an adjacent waterfall may be heard. But these are all sounds which are constant, unless there is a rainstorm on the surface above, and after a time they seem totally uniform and featureless to the listener. It is a sobering thought that this almost dimensionless, dark environment has probably remained unchanged in most caves for five thousand years or more.<\/p>\n

Everyone is surprised when they enter a cave for the first time. Some may turn back in sheer horror, a few may experience claustrophobia, but most will continue in incredulous amazement. They will probably be surprised to find that not all caves are \u201ctight muddy little tubes in the rock\u201d, but that many consist of lofty galleries, with the roofs lost in the darkness, and containing wide, swift, underground rivers. Clean rock walls and sheets of stalactites are usually more abundant than mud. Most people who first enter a cave do so in a show cave \u2013 one that is cleverly illuminated by hidden electric lamps, and provided with a convenient footpath. But this is not the true cave environment. The darkness, the mystery, the strangeness of a world in which man is an intruder \u2013 all these aspects of an untouched caves are lost in a show cave. Caves are a unique feature of this planet; they contain much to fascinate man, yet he can barely appreciate them. After all, who can really visualise a hole in the ground hundreds of feet below the surface? Even the caver who looks up at the roof of this passage finds it difficult to understand that there are tons of rocks above his head.<\/p>\n

Questions<\/strong>:<\/p>\n
