Read carefully the passage below and write your answers to the questions that follow in clear, correct and concise language : 5x15=75 A complete reading program, therefore, should include four factors : at least one. good book each week, a newspaper or news magazine, magazines of comment and interpretation, and book reviews. If you keep feeding your intelligence with these four foods, you can be sure that your brain cells will be properly nourished. To this must be added the digestive process that comes from your own thinking and from discussion with individuals or groups. It is often desirable to make books that you own personally part of your mind by underlining or by marking in the margin the more important statements. This will help you to understand the book as you first read it, because out of the mass of details you must have selected the essential ideas. It will help you to remember better the gist of the book, since the physical act of underlining, with your eyes on the page, tends to put the thought more firmly into your brain cells. It will save time whenever you need to refer to the bosk. Above all, never forget that creative intelligence is correlation of facts and ideas, not mere memorizing. What counts is what you can do with your knowledge, by linking it with other things you have studied or observed. If you read Plutarch’s life of Julius Caesar, think how his rise to political power paralleled the technique of Adolf Hitler, or that of your local political boss. If you read a play by Shakespeare, think how his portrayal of the characters helps you to understand someone you know. In everything you read, keep at the back of your mind what it means to your life here and now, how it supports or challenges the things you were taught in school, in church and at home, and how the wisdom you get from books can guide you in your thinking, in your career, in your voting as a citizen and in your personal morals. Questions : (a) - What are the four things required for a complete reading program and why ? (b) What else is required to feed your intelligence ? (©) Why does the writer recommend underlining or marking in the margin the more important statements ? (a) What use can you put'your knowledge to ? (e) How can what you learn from books help you in your life ? C-DRN-N-GOHC 2 15 15 15 15 1b Q3. Make a précis of the following passage in about one-third of its length. Please do not give a title to it. Précis should be written in your own language. If this century has, in the famous phrase, made the world safe for democracy, the next challenge is to make a world safe for diversity. It is in India’s interest to ensure that the world as a whole must reflect the idea that is already familiar to all Indians — that it shouldn't matter what the colour of your skin is, the kind of food you eat, the sounds you make when you speak, the God you choose to worship (or not), so long as you want to play by the'same rules as everybody else, and dream the same dreams. It is not essential in a democratic world to agree all the time, as long as we agree on the ground rules of how we will disagree. These are the global principles we must strive to uphold if we are to be able to continue to uphold them securely at home. We want a world that gives us the conditions of peace and security that will permit us to grow and flourish, safe from foreign depredations but.open to external opportunities. Whether global institutions adapt and revive will be determined by whether those in charge are capable of showing the necessary leadership. Right now many of us would suggest that there is a global governance deficit. Reversing it would’ require. strong leadership in the international community by a number of powers, including the emerging ones. India is an obvious contender to provide some of that leadership. India should aim not just at being powerful - it should set new standards for what the powerful must do. This is a huge challenge, and one to which India must rise. An analogy from another field is not encouraging; many would argue that India has not acquitted itself well when given the chance to have global impact in one C-DRN-N-GOHC 3 ee domain ~ that of the sport of cricket, where India accounts for more than 80 percent of the game’s revenues and perhaps 90 percent of its viewership, giving it an impact on the sport that no country can rival. Clearly, international opinion does not believe that in its domination of world cricket, India has set new standards for what the powerful must do. Broadening the analogy to global geopolitics, one could well say : India, your world needs you. So India must play its due part in the stewardship of the global commons (including everything from the management of the Internet to the rules governing the exploitation of outer space). We can do it. India is turning increasingly outward as a result of our new economie profile on the global stage, our more dispersed interests around the world, and the reality that other countries, in our neighbourhood as well as in Africa, are looking to us for support and security. India has the ability and the vision to promote global partnerships across the broad range of its interests; it only needs to act. ‘The world economic crisis should give us an opportunity to promote econoinic integration with our neighbours in the subcontinent who look to the growing Indian market to sell their goods and maintain their own growth. But as long as South Asia remains divided by futile rivalries, and some continue to believe that terrorism can be a useful instrument of their strategie doctrines, that is bound to remain a distant prospect. We in South Asia need to look to the future, to an interrelated future on our subcontinent, where geography becomes an instrument of opportunity in a mutual growth story, where history binds rather than divides, where trade and cross-border links flourish and bring prosperity to all our peoples.

The change is in the way movies are made, discovered, marketed, istributed, shown, and seen. Following independence in 1947, the 1950s and 60s, are regarded as the ‘Golden Age’ of Indian cinema in terms of films, stars, music and lyrics. The genre was loosely defined, the most popular being ‘socials’, films which addressed the social problems of citizens in the newly developing state. In the mid-1960s, camera technotogy revolutionized the documentary method by enabling the synchronized recording of image and sound. Today, CINEMA 4D users are free to create scenes without worrying about the size of objects or how many objects are in the scone, shaded settings, texture size, multipass-rendering or eye-catching particle systems Until the 1960s, filmmaking companies, many of whom owned studios, dominated the film industry. Artistes and technicians were either their employees or were contracted on a long-term basis. Since the 1960s, however, most performers went the freelance way, resulting in the star system and huge escalations fn. film production costs. Financing deals in the industry also started becoming murkier and murkier, since then. According to estimates, the Indian film industry has an annual turnover of 7 60 billion. It employs more than 6 million people, most of whom are contract workers as opposed to regular émployees. In the late 1990s, it ‘was recognized as an industry. More money impacted the perception, visual representation, and definitions of reality. Like any other media 6f mass communicetion, the themes are relevant to their times, . Thus, filmmaking became more expensive and riskier. As opposed to the time of the Gemini Studios, when only 5 percent of a movie was shot outdoor, filmmakers often select oversea locations in order to create greater realism, manage costs more efficiently or source people and props. Filmmakers spend considerable time scouting for the perfect location. rats in a fA ogre ere en ger WH WN ee see 8 hele A ra wicks A rae soe a am RI A areas siti at ew Ba 8 sewer aresta aoe & he rast ah sea wt 8 sae gH @ tanh & sen weam a gwar 81 orton fre Reeve an heen & seen gARe wren By ETE enetteaT AEA a TH ten wan 8 feet age gat & caer aA ds et a wae aU & fier feet sift wren ir 20 20 DENI ASO 24 8 [P.r0. { aR ano i sr BR ae ees 8B he A Ye fe ace a re Pt a a A he ABH 1 aj cee hie & A net at ep Be at BI ee THT reise on at 8 fet et Bate nin tei be we 08416 ft wen, Ft HE, A EA _afeye 1 8 oh orton BY | sion we wees ft Ba ee a va Be Bt, eR ee et ea ae oer Bo sank eT ven sheen an ns Se eC oer B AC me org a OH Reet ee aL | a rs ween en ee ore a NA sos, I eB we ge son 3 dr Beek ioe eo woe a Te a ga TB ABE TE Tesh, weed ahr 03H ar 81 ec er ate 8 He ST pogo woud er 8a een weg she we ES He Ta EL i 1 6 rn goat at ed pom a 2x5-10 ya ae i (ii) FRA OR TA i Gay ERAT RAM fi) aE Ae few to) Hie rT ) ‘arfettan aradl Bee Ferg + OxS=10 @ wR (iy Bau teh e Fed Rra r a weTB (cay 4 fra fon fev) eA eT TRL (ey) afer 3H sardig rT I CDR gfO 24 6 | (op » Preston wll % B-2 wetearsh ee ey 2*5"10 ‘ oe (i) sere Gi) : (ivy uy) ee Hl (a) Preafaen gait a ge ae area 3 ag Afi PH saa od ew MA ER de a oe rear 3 fer ea # atte @ 285-10 swe (i) aia , iy FR : iy) aR 4 (uy) Fre | ae | i { | { i } | i 5 ‘ CDR SJOCI 24 7 5BS—11,500 t i CSM), 2OlYy C-DRN-N-ITUA: ararTst ateat / GENERAL STUDIES Werwa I/Paper I eae sora: trae aiftenam si : 250!
