SECTION 'A' (Reading)
1. Read the passage carefully and answer the questions given below :
Compared to me, other wonders of the universe pale into insignificance. I am a one and a half kilo mushroom of grey and white tissue of gelatinous consistency. No computer exists that can duplicate all my myriad functions. My component parts are staggering in number: some 30 billion neurons and five to ten times that number of glial cells. And all this fitted into the crown of a size 7 hat! I am Joe's brain.
But I am not just part of Joe. I am Joe his personality, his reactions, his mental capacity. He thinks that he hears with his ears, tastes with his tongue, feels with his fingers. All these things happen inside of me - ears, tongue and fingers merely gather information. I tell him when he is sick, when he is hungry; I govern his urge, his moods, everything. Even when he is asleep I continue to handle traffic that would swamp all the world's telephone exchanges. The amount of information flooding in on Joe from the outside is staggering. How can I cope with it all? I simply select what is important, and Joe ignores the rest. If Joe puts a phonograph record on and attempts to read at the same time, he will concentrate on the record or the book, but not both. If Joe becomes involved in a particularly good novel, he should not be surprised if he doesn't remember hearing his favourite musical passage.
Of course, if something potentially dangerous happens, I instantly shift gears. Let Joe slip on the ice and I immediately direct him to regain his balance, and then signal his arms to break the fall. Finally, if he hits the ground, I let Joe know if he is hurt. And the event is stored in my memory to warn Joe to walk carefully on ice in the future.
In addition to taking care of such emergencies, I have thousands of house keeping chores to perform. Overseeing breathing, for example. Sensors inform me that carbon dioxide is rising in Joe's blood and that he needs more oxygen. I step up the breathing rate timing the contraction and relaxation of chest muscles. In thousands of such ways I baby Joe. In return, I am piggishly demanding. Although I represent only two percent of Joe's body weight, I require 20 per cent of the oxygen he inhales and a fifth of the blood his heart pumps. I am utterly dependent on a constant supply. Let there be a temporary shortage and Joe faints. Let the supply be cut off for a few minutes and I suffer grave damage paralysis or death may result. I also demand a steady supply of nourishment - glucose. Even in situations of acute starvations, I get first call on any available, for with+out me Joe would die.

2. Read the passage carefully and answer the questions given below:
The ultimate challenge is to make your mind calm. And the ultimate solution is meditation. In today's age every second person recommends meditation to the first! And for a student, there can't be a more powerful technique to improve long term performance in studies.
Calm mind, better retention, better health, focus and concentration are the obvious benefits. You will realise the benefits, as your practice includes a general sense of well being and happiness and spiritual growth. The "mood" problem can be taken care of by this way - meditation.
There are many types of meditation. The simplest is of course, focussing on breathing. Since your breath is always with you, it can be done anytime, any place. But the best is to settle down in a cool place that has dim light and is relatively quiet. You must focus all your attention on your breathing. Observe your breath as it comes in and goes out. You will see that your mind will tend to wander a lot but soon you will be able to bring it back on breathing. Don't obstruct thoughts, let them go off. All you need to do is to keep your focus on breathing.
When you try this initially, you'll see how difficult it is to do! But soon, you'll gain mastery over it and who knows you might end up as a Zen master or a spiritual guru!

Ujjain

Dear Lalit/Leena,
I hope this letter finds you well. I'm writing to you today to share how I spent my amazing summer vacation this year.
For the first two weeks, my family and I went on a trip to Himachal Pradesh. The mountains and the greenery were breathtaking! We enjoyed trekking and river rafting. It was a refreshing break from the heat of Ujjain. The following two weeks, I dedicated time to my hobbies. I joined a coding workshop and spent my evenings practicing guitar. I also spent quality time reading some classic novels I had been putting off. The best part was catching up on sleep and meeting my cousins who visited us. It was a perfect blend of adventure, learning, and relaxation.
How did you spend your vacation? Do write back soon and tell me all about it.
With love,

Subject: Complaint regarding the negligence of the Postman of Ekta Colony
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing to bring to your attention the highly unsatisfactory service being provided by the postman assigned to the Ekta Colony area.
Recently, I have noticed several instances of negligence. Letters and important documents are often delivered to the wrong address. Furthermore, the postman is frequently irregular and often delays the delivery of registered mail and parcels, which has caused inconvenience, especially for time-sensitive official correspondence. On some days, mail delivery is skipped entirely without any notice.
I request you to investigate this matter promptly and instruct the concerned postman to perform his duties with greater care and regularity. This action would greatly improve the efficiency of mail delivery in our locality.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Yours faithfully,

5. Write a paragraph in about 120 words on any one of the following topics:
(i) The Role of Computers in every day life.
(ii) The Importance of Trees.
(iii) Value of Games
(iv) My Ideal Teacher
Answer (for The Importance of Trees):
The Importance of Trees
Trees are fundamental to the existence of life on Earth. Often called the 'lungs of the planet,' they play a vital role in maintaining ecological balance by absorbing carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen, which is essential for human and animal survival. They are crucial for mitigating global warming and climate change. Furthermore, trees help prevent soil erosion, conserve water, and provide habitat for countless species of birds and animals, contributing to biodiversity. Economically, they provide wood, fruits, and medicines. Planting and protecting trees is not merely an environmental responsibility but an act of preserving our future. Their sheer presence also provides shade, beauty, and a sense of calm, making our urban spaces healthier and more livable.
