how we enjoyed our childhood days in Manikonda village. Every day we played
together in our garden. Our family was very big. There were twelve members in
our family. I remember how we played in the moonlight. Our grandma used to
give us fruits and biscuits. Our grandpa used to tell us fairy tales, about the
princes, warriors and the village boys.......
Now I am working at Microsoft, a software company, Hyderabad, as a
Computer Programmer. I am married and we have a child. My wife works at Dell,
Hyderabad as a System Analyst. You know city life is quite busy. We start in the
morning; leave our child at the baby care centre and come back in the evening
with faded faces. We hardly find time to sit together. How disgusting! We work
with computers, think like computers and live like computers. We have forgotten
our family.
I remember how we played gilli-danda, hide and seek and kabaddi. We
went for swimming in our local tank every Sunday. Here we live in an apartment
where there is no room to play. Our flat is our world, just like a well for a frog!
(The world remains unheeded.)
How happy we were in our school! We used to sit in the same row, did all
the work together and took part in the events. I remember how Padmanabhaiah
Sir, our class teacher, appreciated us when we got the first prize in District Science
Fair. I remember how we went on a picnic to Koil Sagar. There we went boating.
Our tour to Srisailam was memorable. Still I remember the green hills full of trees
that almost touched the sky! I remember the roaring of the Krishna River at the
dam. There is nothing here! I wonder at my child’s silence. He always sits in front
of the computer and plays games, never caring for anyone.

Mr. Bumble informed him that the board had said he was to appear before it forthwith.

follow him into a large white – washed room where eight or ten fat gentlemen were
sitting round a table.
At the top of the table, seated in an armchair rather higher than the rest, was a
particularly fat gentleman with a very round, red face.
‘Bow to the board,’ said Bumble. Oliver brushed away two or three tears that were
lingering in his eyes; and seeing no board but the table, bowed to that.
‘What’s your name, boy?’ said the gentleman in the high chair.
Oliver was frightened at the sight of so many gentlemen, which made him
tremble. The beadle gave him a tap on his back with his cane, which made him cry.

There are 20 MCQs in Section I, II and III (Reading comprehension, Vocabulary and
grammar)
SECTION I
(Q. No. 1-10) Read the following passage from the lesson “Oliver Asks for More”.
‘Hush!’ said the gentleman who had spoken first. ‘You know you’ve got no father or
mother, and that you were brought up by the parish, weren’t you?’
‘Yes, sir,’ replied Oliver, weeping bitterly.
‘What are you crying for?’ inquired the gentleman in the white waistcoat.
‘I hope you say your prayers every night,’ said another gentleman in a gruff voice; ‘and
pray for the people who feed you, and take care of you-like a Christian.’
‘Yes, sir,’ stammered the boy.
‘Well! You have come here to be educated and taught a useful trade,’ said the redfaced
gentleman in the high chair.
‘So you’ll begin to pick oakum tomorrow morning at six o’clock,’ added the surly one in
the white waistcoat.
Oliver bowed low, directed by the beadle, and was then hurried away to a large ward;
where, on a rough, hard bed, he sobbed himself to sleep.
Poor Oliver! As he lay sleeping, unconscious of everything around him, the board had
taken a decision that would change the course of his life.
( 37 )
The members of this board were very wise and philosophical men. As they turned their
attention to the workhouse, they discovered that it was the regular place of public
entertainment for the poorer classes. It was the place where they had breakfast, dinner, tea,
and supper all the year round and free; where it was all play and no work. This was really a
shocking state of affairs. They were of the opinion that the poor should be given only two
alternatives - either to starve quickly outside the workhouse, or gradually inside the house.
With this view, they decided that the inmates of the workhouse would be issued three meals of
thin gruel a day, with an onion twice a week.
For the first six months after Oliver Twist was moved in, the system was in full
operation. As a result, during this period, the number of workhouse inmates got smaller, and
the inmates themselves shrank in size and became thinner.
The room in which the boys were fed, was a large stone hall, with a big copper bowl at
one end, out of which the master, dressed in an apron for the purpose, and assisted by one or
two women, ladled the gruel at mealtime. Of this festive composition each boy had one
basinful and no more-except on occasions of great public rejoicing, when he had two ounces
and a quarter of bread besides.
The basins never wanted washing. The boys polished them with their spoons till they
shone again. When they had performed this operation they would sit staring at the copper
bowl, with such eager eyes, as if they could have devoured the big bowl itself and everything
in it. At the same time they sucked their fingers most carefully to catch up any stray splashes
of gruel that might have stuck thereon. Boys have generally excellent appetite. Oliver Twist
and his companions suffered the tortures of slow starvation for three months; at last they got
so voracious and wild with hunger, that one boy, who was tall for his age, and hadn’t been
used to that sort of thing (for his father had kept a small cook–shop), hinted darkly to his
companions, that unless he had another basin of gruel per day, he was afraid he might some
night happen to eat the boy who slept next to him, who happened to be a weakly youth of
tender age.

LEVEL-II

SECTION I
(Q. No. 1-10) Read the following passage from the lesson “Oliver Asks for
More”.
He had a wild, hungry eye; and they believed him. A council was held; lots were
cast as to who should walk up to the master after supper that evening, and ask for more;
and it fell to Oliver Twist.
The evening arrived; the boys took their places. The master, in his cook’s uniform,
stationed himself at the copper; his assistants ranged themselves behind him; the gruel
was served out. The gruel disappeared; the boys whispered to each other, and winked at
Oliver, while his next neighbours nudged him. Child as he was, he was desperate with
hunger, and reckless with misery. He rose from the table; and advancing to the master,
basin and spoon in hand, said: somewhat alarmed at his own courage.
‘Please, sir, I want some more.’
The master was a fat, healthy man; but he turned very pale. He gazed in stupefied
astonishment on the small rebel for some seconds, and then clung for support to the
copper.
The assistants were paralyzed with wonder; the boys with fear.
‘What!’ said the master at length, in a faint voice.
‘Please, sir,’ replied Oliver, ‘I want some more.’
The master aimed a blow at Oliver’s head with the ladle; and shrieked aloud for
the beadle.
The board was sitting in solemn meeting, when Mr. Bumble rushed into the room
in great excitement, and addressing the gentleman in the high chair, said, ‘Mr. Limbkins,
I beg your pardon, sir! Oliver Twist has asked for more!’
There was a general start. Horror was depicted on every countenance.
‘For more!’ said Mr. Limbkins. ‘Compose yourself, Bumble, and answer me
distinctly. Do I understand that he asked for more, after he had eaten the supper allotted
by the board?’
‘He did, sir,’ replied Bumble.
‘That boy will be hung’, said the gentleman in the white waistcoat. ‘I know that
boy will be hung.’ ( 42 )
Nobody contradicted the prophetic gentleman’s opinion. An excited discussion
took place. Oliver was ordered into instant confinement; and a bill was next morning
pasted on the outside of the gate, offering a reward of five pounds to anybody who
would take Oliver Twist off the hands of the parish. In other words, five pounds and
Oliver Twist were offered to any man or woman who wanted an apprentice to any trade,
