SECTION – A : READING (20 marks)
1. Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow :
(10)
Birds at Work
You've probably heard of working dogs that help police officers, or horses that help
farmers. Did you know that carrier pigeons can be trained to help people too? What
kind of jobs do these birds perform?
Carrier pigeons can be trained to carry messages to people. The note is placed into a
small skinny can. The can is tied to the pigeon’s leg. Then the pigeon flies off to
deliver the note. Carrier pigeons are good messengers because they’re fast and can
fly long distances. They also have a good sense of direction. They can even reach
places that people can’t.
More than 800 years ago, Genghis Khan, an Asian ruler set up pigeon post offices
across his lands! As recently as 2010, Cuba used pigeons to send election results to its
mountain people.
They also act as Lifeguards. From high up in the sky, specially trained pigeons can
spot orange life jackets in the ocean. Sometimes it is difficult for humans to spot
people lost at sea, especially when the weather is bad. However, pigeons can fly
quickly over a large area of water in search of people. Many years ago, carrier
pigeons were used to help our country during wars. “Spy pigeons” had small cameras
that were tied to their feet. As a pigeon flew over enemy land, the camera snapped
photos of the land below. This would allow our military to see where the enemies
were and what they were doing.
The pigeons have probably saved many soldiers' lives. These “spy” birds had a
dangerous job. They had to dodge bullets, poisonous gas, and bullies like hawks.
(16)
During World Wars 1 and 2, the USA and its allies even had huge pigeon armies.
Thousands of pigeons served! They were like flying soldiers. A few even received
medals for their brave work. In 2006, a group of scientists used pigeons to study air
pollution in California. Special backpacks with miniature cell phones were strapped
onto pigeons. As the pigeons flew, machines in the backpacks tested to see what
gases were in the air. The cell phones sent information about the air to the scientists.
So next time you see a pigeon, stop and watch it closely. What might look like an
ordinary bird to most people, might actually be a hard-working mail carrier, a
scientist, a lifeguard, or even a spy!

The Negro Mother
Children, I come back today
To tell you the story of the long dark way

In order that the race might live and grow.
Look at my face --- dark as the night
Yet shining like the sun with love’s true light.
I am the dark girl who crossed the Red Sea
Carrying in my body the seed of the free.
I am the woman who worked in the field
Bringing the cotton and the cotton to the yield
I am the one who laboured as a slave,
Beaten and mistreated for the work that I gave
Children sold away from me, and husband sold, too.
No safety, no love, no respect was I due.
Three hundred years in the deepest South :
But God put a song and a prayer in my mouth.
God put a dream like steel in my soul.
Now, through my children, I’m reaching the goal.
Oh, my dark children may my dreams and my prayers
Impel you forever up the great stairs

Dares keep down the children of the Negro Mother.
