Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow : (10X1 = 10)

1. Books are companions for people of all age groups. E-books vs. printed books is like comparing joint and nuclear family systems. Both have their advantages and disadvantages. E-books are cost effective and books of all genres can be easily accessed from the internet. Font flexibility makes reading easier, uncountable books can be stored in a single device and most importantly it can help save trees. Packing for trips is hard enough, but it gets doubled when faced with the task of choosing which book to carry, The device takes a whole lot of weight off from shoulders literally. With the e-book, a reader can take hundreds of books with him on the journey, and only take up a few square inches in his carry bag.

Reading a printed book can save you from the health hazards of using hi-tech gadgets. For people who consider reading a book as worship, the scent of its pages intoxicate their senses. The pleasure of reading a printed book and scribbling comments on the sides of the pages are unmatched. Printed books are not merely about reading, they are an experience. The joy of flipping pages and keeping book+marks cannot be experienced in an e-book. Constantly reading on the computer screen or a mobile phone can damage the eyes. Apart from physical considerations, studies have shown that when it comes to reading comprehension, printed books are still a better choice. Literacy building in children is more effective with printed books than with an e-book because of the opportunities for interaction between the child and the parent, reading the book with the child. In fact, in e-books there is no conversation and nothing to encourage the child to verbalise or explore using language. The research concluded that 'click through' added features can actually detract from the reading experience because of all the interruption.

This is not to say e-books do not have advantages. It can effectively serve the purpose of convenience and portability. The excitement generated around technologies such as Amazon's Kindle has played its part in changing from page to screen. Both versions complement each other based on why and where each is being used.

Q) Read the Passage and Answer the Questions below.

The natural life span of a domesticated horse is about 25–30 years, 10 years down from what it was in the wild. You can tell a horse’s age from the number of teeth he has. They get all their teeth by the age of 5, after which those teeth just get longer. Horses have close to 360 degree all round vision. The only place they cannot see is directly behind or right in front of them, which is why it’s dangerous to stand behind a horse. If they feel something behind them, they may kick first and ask questions later! It also means that they cannot see a jump once they are about four feet from it, and have to rely on memory as to its height and shape! Each of the horse’s two eyes works independently wherever a horse’s ear points it is the direction where the horse is looking. A horse is able to sleep standing up as he is able to lock his leg muscles so that he doesn’t fall asleep.

a)

Proceed to next question.
