(Solved)
Read the passage and then answer the questions that follow;
1.
Two weeks before the fateful examination began; I was indiscreet enough to fight the principal’ s son. He was a fellow fifth former with whom, up till then , I had no quarrel at all. He was inclined to be a little overbearing at times ;but then a flint needs contact with another flint in order to spark, and I had been forced to develop from the start an easy-going and tolerant disposition . I suppose as the examination drew nearer, our nerves became tauter and our tempers shorter .When, during a discussion in our classroom about careers Samuel declared unnecessarily loudly that he believed all persons who came from North should return to it to find employment , I suddenly felt my anger rising like a column of mercury. I asked him why, in as calm a voice as I could assume. He replied with a sneer by quoting a Sagroson proverb whose meaning was roughly that even a man who does not know where he is going to ought, at least, to know where he has come from: and the gentle laughter, which greeted it brought my temper to boiling point. I was tall and well built, but so was he. Three strides took me beside him and by the time the class prefect succeeded in separating us, Sagrosan blood and Lokko blood had mingled on the floor. Moreover, as is the custom with us, the fight was as much verbal as physical and a torrent of abuse directed mainly against the other's antecedents was flowing out of each battered mouth.
We were bloody, sweaty, and dusty when it was over but still only partly through our respective stocks of abuse. Nothing more than a heighted respect each for the other might have come out of the fight, had Samuel been a boarder. Unfortunately for both of us, however, he lived very much under his august father's eye and the marks I had succeeded in leaving on his face were too distinctive to be hidden by any sort of artifice. I prepared for the worst (prepared in spirit that is, for physical preparations were known to be unavailing at such times). The summons to the principal's office duly came after lunch the same day. He was quite impartial, I'll say that for him. We were both arched over his desk and inscribed across our rumps with two dozen strokes of a bamboo four-footer. Then we were made to shake hands with each other and sent off for walk together along the beach and back (this was the principal's usual way of dealing with a pair of fighters, and one which usually made bosom friends of them).That thrashing and the walk which followed, gave me the moments of deepest mortification I have experienced, and drove home to me the utter futility and wastefulness of making issue of tribal divisions, in a land where much else required our attentions and our energies. Having heard from us how the fight started, the principal might so early have wasted our time and his reading us along patriotic sermon on the essential brotherhood of all the people of Songhai. Such a theme would have made him appear to me hypocrite and to Samuel a traitor -for we both knew only too well that the difference between us were real, if not deep. Instead, we were made to share a fellowship of misery and humiliation which linked us together more effectively than any half – believed fiction about cultural or ethnic affinities could have succeeded in doing.

(Solved)
Read the narrative below and then answer the questions that follow:
Snake, Millipede and Centipede were born triplets to a caring old couple in a far off country. The couple had tried to get children for years but to no avail,
The arrival of the triplets was, therefore, the cause of great joy in the whole village. With the little energy left, they struggled with the day-to-day hustles of new parents. They doted on their little ones and ensured that they got everything they needed. They grew up to be three beautiful daughters and were the envy of the entire village.
Millipede was the eldest and naturally acted as the leader. She was courageous, caring and fiercely protective of her siblings, not one animal dared across her path because of strength and fighting skills she learnt for her father.
Centipede was born second. She often ran into trouble with the neighbours but was always confident that big sister would always come to her rescue. Her mother always had cases to settle with her friends. No one day passed without Centipede being scolded about her carefree lifestyle. Snake, the lastborn, was her mother’s favourite and always got away with mischief, however grave. She was the most beautiful of the sister’s and always got extra attention from parents.
As the sisters grew, the snake got really proud and wanted everything for herself. She often wondered how different life would have been had she born an only child.
She always schemed ways of getting her siblings into trouble and always got away with it.
One day, as they were at the river fetching water, they heard screams from upstream.
“Somebody help me please! I am trapped!”
The girls stopped in their tracks and cocked their ears. They rushed to the source of the cries and to their amazement; they found a man stuck to the waist, mud all around him as the river raged by. When he saw the three sisters, he was much relieved that help has finally arrived.
“Please girls, help me out of here, I’m going to drown,” he pleaded. Millipede and Centipede threw their hands to the poor man and struggled to pull him out. Little beads of sweat formed –on their foreheads as they struggled . “Come on and help” they told snake. “No way! I cannot dirty my delicate hands trying to save such a soul”, she sneered. Akimbo, she watched, bemused that her sisters would waste their time panting and heaving to wriggle the man out of the mud. Once out on dry ground, the man wiped the mud off his tired body and, as a way of appreciation asked the girls to make two wishes each. He told them that he was a genie who had been trapped for hundreds of years in the mud.
Snake was really excited when she heard about the wishes. She requested to be the firsts to make a wish. The sisters agreed but their hearts were heavy because they knew how malicious their sister was. Snake closed her eyes and silently made her wishes, for a big beautiful body and lovely legs millipede was next to make her wishes but because she knew her sister’s heart, she wished for a million of what snake had asked and a small body to go with it.
Centipede was the last to make her wish because of the admiration she had for her sister, wished for half of what her brave sister asked for. The man waved his magic band five times and bang! The sisters’ wishes came true.
Like a flash. Snake’s legs disappeared and her body grew twice its original size. Millipede got a million legs and her sister thousands, while their bodies shrunk to half their original sizes. They were all dismayed but on looking around, the man had disappeared. Snake was really sorry because she knew that she was the reason her sisters acted the way they did.
With shame, and tears streaming down her face, she glided away into the bushes and up to today , still holds a grudge against man for changing her fortunes. She always bites his ankle whenever they meet.
The other sisters accepted their wishes and continued with their lives happily, often helping man to aerate his farm by burrowing into the soil. (Adopted from Sunday Standard December 2006)

The play. The Caucasian Chalk Circle, Brecht Bertolt.
2.
Read the following extract and answer the question that follow.
LAWYERS (approaching AZDAK, who stands up, expectantly): A quite ridiculous case, Your Honor. The accused has abducted a child and refuses to hand it over.
AZDAK (stretching out his hand, glancing at GRUSHA): A most attractive person. (He fingers the money, then sits down, satisfied.) I declare the proceedings open and demand the whole truth.
To GRUSHA:) Especially from you.
FIRST LAWYER: High Court of justice! Blood, as the popular saying goes, is thicker than water. This old adage…
AZDAK (Interrupting): The court wants to know the lawyers’ fee.
FIRST LAWYER (surprised): I beg your pardon?
(AZDAK, smiling, rubs his thumb and index finger.) Oh, I see, five hundred piasters, Your Honor, to answer the Court’s somewhat unusual question.
AZDAK: Did you hear? The question is unusual. I ask it because I listen in quite a different way when I know you’re good.
FIRST LAWAYER (bowing): Thank you, Your Honor. High Court of Justice, of all ties, the ties of blood are strongest. Mother and child –is there a more intimate relationship? Can one tear a child form its mother? High Court of Justice, she has conceived it in the holy ecstasies of love. She has carried it in her womb. She has fed it with her blood. She has borne it with pain. High Court of Justice, it has been observed that the wild tigress, robbed of her young, roams restless through the mountains, shrunk to a shadow. Nature herself…
AZDAK (interrupting to GRUSHA): What’s your answer to all this and anything else that lawyer might have to say?
GRUSHA: He’s mine.
AZDAK: Is that all? I hope you can prove it. Why should I assign the child to you any case?
GRUSHA: I brought him up like the priest says “according to my best knowledge and conscience”. I always found him something to eat. Most of the time he had a roof over his head. And I went to such trouble for my own comfort. I brought the child up to be friendly with everyone, and from the beginning taught him to work. As well as he could, that is. He’s still very little.
FIRST LAWYER: Your Honor, it is significant that the girl herself doesn’t claim any tie of blood between her and the child.
AZDAK: The Court takes a note of that
FIRST LAWYER: Thank you, Your Honor. And now permit a woman bowed in sorrow – who has already lost her husband and now has also to fear the loss of her child-to address a few words to you. The gracious Natella Abashwili is…
GOVERNOR’S WIFE (quietly) : A most cruel fate, sir, forces me to describe to you the tortures of a bereaved mother’s soul, the anxiety , the sleepless nights, the…
SECOND LAWYER (bursting out): It’s outrageous the way this woman is being treated! Her husband’s palace is closed to her! The revenue of her estates is blocked, and she is cold-bloodedly told that it’s tied to the heir. She can’t do a thing without that child. She can’t even pay her lawyers!!(To the FIRST LAWYER, who, desperate about this outburst, makes frantic gestures to
keep him from speaking:) Dear Illo Shuboladze, surely it can be divulged now that the Abashwili estates are at stake?

The serf by Roy Campbell
His naked skin clothed in the torrid mist,
That puffs in smoke around the patient hooves,
The ploughman drives, a slow somnambulist,
And through the green his Grimson furrow grooves
His heart, more deeply than he wounds the plain
Long by the rasping shame of insult torn,
Red clod, to which the war-cry was rain
And tribal spears the fatal sheaves of corn,
Lies fallow now. But as the turf divides,
I see in the slow progress of his strides
Over the toppled clouds and falling flowers,
The timeless, surly patience of the serf,
That moves the nearest to the naked earth
ploughs down palaces and thrones, and towers
a) What kind of a person is a serf as portrayed in this poem?
b) Explain the meaning of lines 5 to 9.

(Solved)
The Voice had to be listened to, not only on account of its form but for the matter which it delivered. It gave a message to the country that it needed greatly. It brought to the common people a realization of their duty to concern themselves with their affairs. The common people were made to take an interest in the manner in which they were governed in the taxes they paid in the return they got from those taxes. This interest in public affairs— politics as you may call it—was to be the concern no longer of the highly educated few but of the many—the poor, the propertyless, the working-men in town and country. Politics was not to be the concern of a small aristocracy of intellect or property of the masses. And with the change in the subjects of politics that Voice brought about also a change in the objects of politics. Till then politics had busied itself mainly with the machinery of Government towards making its personnel more and more native, with proposals for a better distribution of political power, with protests against the sins of omission and of commission of the administration. This Voice switched politics on to concern for the needs of the common people. The improvement of the lot of the poor was to be the main concern of politics and the politician. The improvement, especially of the lives of the people of the neglected villages, was to be placed before Governments and political organizations as the goal of all political endeavour. The raising of the standard of living of the people of the villages, the finding of subsidiary occupations which would give the agricultural poor work for their enforced leisure during the off season and an addition to their exiguous income, the improvement of the housing of the poor, the sanitation of the villages — these were to be the objectives to be kept in view. In the towns, the slums and cherics were to receive special attention. There was especially a class of the poor for which that compassionate voice pleaded and protested. This was for the so-called depressed class, the outcastes of Hindu society. The denial of elementary human rights to this class of people it considered the greatest blot on Hindu society and history. It raised itself in passionate protest against the age-old wrongs of this class and forced those that listened to it to endeavour to remove the most outrageous of them like untouchability. It caused a revolution in Hindu religious practice by having Hindu temples thrown open to these people. It made the care of them a religious duty of the Hindus by re-naming them Harijans.
Questions
a) Give the main reason as to why people had to listen to the Voice
b) Why was politics by the highly educated few no longer appealing?
c) In note more than 60 words, summarize the changes brought about in the objects of politics.
Rough draft

d) Politics was not to be the concern of a small aristocracy of intellect or property of the masses.
(Rewrite the sentence adding a question tag.
e) Explain the genesis of the Hindu religious revolution.
f) What’s the author’s attitude towards the new voice.
g) What was unique about the outcasts of Hindu society?
h) Explain the meaning of the following words and phrase as used in the passage
