FOREWORD
Dear teachers and students,
We are extremely happy to offer ‘TREASURE’, a question bank for the students of FIRST
PUC. The primary objective of our collective endeavour is that the ‘QUESTION BANK’ must be of
assistance to both teachers and students alike to understand the prescribed text in a coherent
and systematic manner. This will help the students to familiarise themselves with the possible
questions that they are likely to face in the forthcoming examinations.
The question bank has been prepared keeping in view the different perspectives from
which a unit can be looked at. All possible areas of the prescribed units have been meticulously
covered to make it comprehensive and wholesome for the students.
We have striven to make it as error free as possible. However, corrections and
suggestions for further improvement are welcome. We fervently hope that the question bank
will achieve the desired objectives.
With best wishes…
Regards,
Chairman, Reviewer and the Members of the Question Bank Committee.
Note:
 While setting the question paper, the teacher has to prepare the blueprint and select
questions from different units on the basis of the blue print.
 While framing questions, the context (such as the title of the poem or the lesson) needs
to be specified.
 The given questionnaire occasionally involves various ways by which a question may be
asked.
 Various abbreviations such as K-Knowledge based, C- Comprehension, E- Expression and
A- Appreciation have been used to specify the area which is examined in each question.

Read the following passage and answer the question set on it:
Pheasants are shy, charming birds known for their brilliant plumage. These beautiful birds occupy an
important niche in nature’s scheme of things. The pheasants belong to the order Galliformes and family
Phasindac. The Galliformes are known as ‘game birds’ and this includes pheasants, partridges, quails,
grouse, turkeys and megapodes.
There are 51 species of pheasants in the world and these are shown in the identification chart brought
out by the Environment Society of India (ESI). The purpose of this chart is to create awareness among
the members of the school eco – clubs under the National Green Corps (NGC) of the Ministry of
Environment and Forests, Government of India.
Except for the Congo Peafowl, all the other pheasants are from Asia. Scientists believe that all pheasants
originated from the Himalayas and then scattered into Tibet, China, Myanmar, South and South East
countries as well as the Caucasus Mountains. The jungle fowl and the peafowl spread to the South India
and Sri Lanka long before the early settlers established themselves in the Indo – Gangetic plain.
About one third of all pheasants in the world are found in India. The male blue peafowl (the peacock) is
the best known member of the pheasant family and is India’s national bird. It occupies a prominent

The US Navy is planning to use Armed Robotic Patrol boats with no sailors on board to escort and
defend warships moving through sensitive sea lanes.
The technology was adapted from NASA’s Rovers on Mars. This will transform how the American Navy
operates and is sure to raise fresh questions and concerns about the widening role of robots in warfare.
The office of Naval Research has released the results of what is called an unprecedented demonstration
in August involving 13 robotic patrol craft escorting a ship along the James river in Virginia.
In a simulated scenario, five of the robotic patrol boats guarded a larger ship, while eight others were
ordered to investigate a suspicious vessel. The unmanned patrol boats then encircled and swarmed the
target enabling the mother ship to move safely though the area.
“The demonstration conducted over two weeks, was designed to replicate a transit through a straight”,
Naval Research Chief Admiral Mathew Klunder told reporters in a recent briefing.
The demonstration was a break though that goes far beyond any previous experiment. He also added
that a similar robotic patrol craft is likely to escort US naval ships within a year. The patrol craft is a long
vessel. It is known in military as Rigid Hulled Inflatable Boats. They are usually operated by three or four
sailors. But as they are outfitted with the robotic system a single sailor could oversee upto twenty of the
vessels.
Unlike drone aircraft, such as the famed ‘Predator’ and ‘Reaper’ planes, the robotic boats are more
autonomous and can carry out directions without having to be operated by a human at every step.
‘The excitement about this technology is, it is autonomous”, Mr.Klunder said.
Questions:
1. What is the US Navy planning to use, to escort and defend warships?
2. When was the unprecedented demonstration held?
3. Name the river in which the demonstration was conducted.
4. What were the eight robotic patrol boats ordered to investigate?
5. How long was the demonstration conducted?
6. Who is the Naval Chief mentioned in the passage.
7. The number of robotic patrol boats that guarded the large ship was _______
a) Eight b) Five c) Thirteen
8. Add a prefix to the word ‘usual’ to form its antonym.
9. What benefit would the US Navy get by utilizing robotic patrol boats in overseeing the vessels?
10. The Admiral was in ___________ (excited / excitement) to speak about the technology.

The first war of Independence came to an end with Tantya’s death.
Tantya was the only child of Pandurang and his wife Rukma Bai. He was born in Yelva in Maharastra but
brought up in Bithoor where Nana Sahib lived. He adored Nana and dedicated his life for him. Tantya’s
real name was Ram Chander Rao. He was involved in rebellions since the Kanpur revolt and remained
linked to the war of independence till his death on April 18th, 1859. Tantya is like Garibaldi in his
revolutionary fervor and patriotism.

Gregor Johann Mendel, was born in 1822. He was an Austrian monk. In the year 1856, he
became famous for his work in a series of breeding experiments to study plant heredity. He conducted
these experiments on the garden pea plant. The biological name of this plant is Pisum Sativum. This
study formed the basis of scientific investigations on inheritance. Not much was known about genetics
till then. Mendel was the first to work on the basic laws which govern the inheritance of genes. Earlier, it
was believed that if a tall person married a short person, the children produced would have
intermediate height. But Mendel proved it wrong. He showed that individual characteristics are passed
to the next generation and would never blend.
For years, he bred and studied the edible pea plant. He chose the pea plant for his experiments
for many reasons; they were small and many can be grown in a limited area; the results of these crosses
had been studied earlier; as they were easy to cultivate because of their rapid life cycles and as the
flowers could self-pollinate themselves or even be cross pollinated under controlled conditions.
Out of the many features that a pea plant possessed Mendel’s breeding experiments centered
on the inheritance of a few contrasting features. He conducted his experiments using good scientific
method. He controlled his experimental conditions carefully. He ensured that plants were pollinated
only by the pollen he transferred. He performed his experiments in three sequential stages; firstly,
selection of pure line parents, secondly, hybridization and thirdly, self–pollination of hybrids.

PASSAGE – 8
Propaganda is a systematic effort to influence people’s opinions, to win them over. Propaganda is not
concerned with what is good or bad, true or false. Propagandists simply want people to believe the
messages.
The word ‘propaganda’ may seem relevant only in political arena. But this can be applied in advertising
too. Every day we see slogans, commercials, trademarks etc., in newspapers, magazines and on
television. Advertisers depend on propaganda to sell ‘products’ like a brand of toothpaste, a candidate
in elections or any view point. Studies tell us that on an average, each of us is exposed to over five
hundred different advertisements in a day.
Card stacking is one method of propaganda. Here propagandists may tell half truths, distort evidence or
divert attention from one issue to another. Advertisers use ‘weasel words’. These are small words. They
usually slip right past us. But it makes a lot of difference between reality and illusion. The best example
of shampoos – ‘Helps control Dandruff’. But audience interprets this as ‘stops’ dandruff.
Another method is Bandwagon. Here propagandists try to pressurize. Like, “Everyone’s doing it, why
don’t you?” Often propagandists succeed because many people have a deep desire not to be different.
The political ads tell us to vote for the ‘winning candidate’. Advertisers know we always feel comfortable
in doing what others do. All of us wish to be in the winning team and vote for the candidate. Propaganda
is so effective that we need to detect and understand how it is used. Some propaganda sends truthful
and worthy message – ‘Don’t Drink and Drive, Contribute to Charity’. Yet we must be aware that we are
surrendering ourselves, our independence of thoughts and actions to others.
Questions :
1. What is propaganda?
2. Where is the word ‘propaganda’ relevant?
3. What are the ideas sold in advertising called?
4. Mention one of the forms of propaganda as given in the passage.
5. How does one advertise in card stacking?
6. What do advertisers use in card stacking?
7. Name the type of propaganda that pressurizes the people.
8. Why do the propagandists succeed in Band wagon?
9. Some propaganda sends ________ (truth / truthful) message. (Choose the right word)
10. Add a suitable prefix to the word ‘comfortable’ to form its antonym. (in, un, re)

PASSAGE – 9
Read the following passage and answer the question set on it :
Smoking kills 9,00,000 people every year in India. World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that
smoking related deaths worldwide will surpass 9 million annually by 2020, with 7 million of those deaths
occurring in developing nations.
People start smoking for a variety of different reasons. Some think it looks cool. Others start because
their family members or friends smoke. Statistics show that about 9 out of 10 tobacco users start
smoking before they are 18 years old. Most adults who started smoking in their teens, never expected
to become addicted. That is why people say it is just so much easier to not start at all.
It is a hard habit to break because tobacco contains a drug called nicotine. This drug is highly addictive.
Like heroin or other addictive drugs, the body and mind quickly become so used to the nicotine in
cigarettes that a person needs to have it just to feel normal. The nicotine can raise one’s blood pressure,
heart rate and oxygen demand for muscles, mainly for the heart. Moreover, the second hand smoke
which comes from two places i.e., smoke breathed out by the person who smokes and smoke from the
end of a burning cigarette causes health effects, including cancer, breathing problems and asthma.
Smoking is one of the most preventable causes of death in our society. It is an expensive habit. The
tobacco industry makes billions of rupees each year and they do not care about anyone’s existence. All
they want is money. One buys more cigarettes, the company earns more.
Today’s generation needs to beware of electronic cigarettes (e – cigarettes). This contains cancer
causing chemicals and other toxins. This also has a compound used in antifreeze. These battery
operated devices use cartridges filled with nicotine flavorings and other chemicals and convert them
into a vapour that is inhaled by the user. Counseling and medical help need to be sought for smoking
addicts.
Questions:
1. According to WHO, where do maximum deaths occur by smoking ?
2. At what age do people start to smoke?
3. What did the teenagers never expect when they started smoking?
4. Name the drug in tobacco.
5. What is the effect of nicotine on the heart?
6. What is the most preventable cause of death in our society?
7. What does the tobacco industry care about?
8. __________ is needed to help smoking addicts to come out of it.
9. Smoking is an ________ (addiction / addictive) habit.
10. Add a prefix to the word ‘expected’ to form the antonym. (non, un, re)

IV. Read the following passage and answer the questions set on it. 10x1=10
It began on the fateful December day that Rosa Parks left her job at the fair Department store in
Montgomery, Alabama. The square on that day was festooned with red and green Christmas lights and
there was a big banner over one of the stores, saying “Peace on Earth, Good will to Men”.
Rosa Parks paid no attention to the lights or the banner. She had been working since early morning and
she was very tired. There was a little pain across her neck and shoulders and her feet ached.
It was Thursday, December 1, 1955. The Black Revolution was about to begin.
In Montgomery as in most southern cities, most of the bus passengers were black. Despite this fact, the
first four seats on all buses were reserved for white people and could not be used, under any
circumstance by blacks. Behind these four seats was a middle section of two or three seats that “if the
front section filled up and one white person came to sit in the middle section, all blacks in the middle
section had to get up and stand in the back.”
There was no need for Rosa Parks to rehearse all this. She was not looking for trouble. What she wanted
was a comfortable seat. Anybody with a keen eye would have seen that this was not the day, nor the
hour to give this mild-mannered woman a hard time.
As she approached the first bus, she noticed that it was crowded and she let it go by for she wanted a
seat; she wanted to be comfortable. Later when she got into the second bus the Negro section was full
and she sank into a seat in the middle section. At the next stop, several whites got in and one of them
was left standing.
84 | P a g e
The driver looked in the rear mirror and told the Blacks in the middle row to get up and give place to the
white man. At this the others in the section vacated their seats. Mrs. Parks remained seated. The driver
this time asked her a little louder to get up. She acted as if she had not heard him at all.
He stopped the bus, got off and called the police. Two policemen came and asked her if she had
understood the driver’s request. She said “yes’.
‘Why didn’t you get up? One officer asked.
“I didn’t think I should have to” she replied and there came from deep inside her the terrible and
unanswerable question, “Why do you push us around?”
There was no answer in the police manual or in any book to that question and the officer mumbled “I
don’t know, but the law is the law and you are under arrest.”
24. Where was Rosa parks employed?

25. Where was the banner "Peace on Earth, Good will to Men”?
26. Why did Rosa Parks not pay attention either to the lights or to the banner that day?
27. Why did Rosa Parks not get into the first bus?
28. Why did Rosa have to take a seat in the middle section?
29. How did the driver know that the Blacks were seated in the middle row?
30. Who did not obey the driver's order?
31. Every human being likes to lead a________ life. (comfortable/comforts).

IV. Read the following passage and answer the questions set on it. 10x1=10
Born on March 21, 1916 Bismillah Khan belonged to a family of professional Shehnai players. At
the age of six, he moved to Banaras where his maternal uncle Ali Bux introduced him to the
nuances of playing the simple reed instrument, the Shehnai. For many years the temple of Balaji
and banks of Ganga became the favourite haunt where Bismillah could practice for hours in
solitude. The flowing waters of Ganga inspired him to improvise and invent ‘ragas’ which were
earlier considered to be beyond the range of Shehnai.
His first reward came at the age of 14, as the best performer at the All India Music Conference in
Allahabad in 1930. In 1947 he won three medals at the music conference in Calcutta. On the first
Independence Day, 15th August 1947, he played it at the invitation of the then PM Jawaharlal
Nehru. Awards and recognitions came fast. He participated in the World Exposition in Montreal,
Cannes Art Festival and Osaka Trade Fair. An auditorium was named after him in Tehran called
Tahar Mosiquee’ Ustaad Bismillah Khan. The World Music Institute Celebrated his 80th birthday
in New York.
In spite of having travelled all over the world Khan Saab, as he is fondly called, was fond of
Banaras and Dumaron. Once, one of his students wanted him to head a Shehnai school in the
USA and recreated the atmosphere of Banaras there. But Ustaad asked him if he could take the
Ganga there. Talking about Balaji temple he said, “ I have tears in my eyes when I visit the
place”. About Dumraon he said, “ How can I forget the place of my birth?”. While in Mumbai, I
think of only Varanasi and holy Ganga. And in Varanasi I miss Dumraon. No wonder Khan Saab
never thought of migrating from Banaras unlike some stars like Pandit Ravi Shankar or Ustad
Allaudin Khan.
24. How old was Bismillah Khan when he moved to Banaras?

25. _______ introduced Bismillah Khan to the nuances of playing Shehnai.

IV. Read the following passage and answer the questions set on it: 10 X 1 = 10
One of the greatest runners of this century, Murray Halberg, winner of the 5000 metre race at the Rome
Olympic Games in 1960, was almost killed in an accident while playing football. He was only16 then. His
left arm was so badly damaged that the arm remained paralysed for the rest of his life.
Halberg was born in New Zealand. After his accident, he gave up football and he took to athletics. In
1951 Arthur Lydiard became his coach. In 1956, Olympics were to be held in Melbourne in Australia and
Halberg prepared seriously for the 1500 metre race. But he finished eleventh out of 12 runners. He was
completely disappointed. In the end, he decided that he would make another attempt. Now 23, Halberg
changed himself from a human being into a running machine.
1960 came and Lydiard took him to Rome for the Olympics. Halberg was now 27, the age of which
Lydiard had said he would reach his peak as a runner. He reached the final of the 5000 metre race
without much effort. As the final began, all the runners were ready. The 60,000 people in the stadium
105 | P a g e
never took notice of him, he was far behind them. Eight laps later, he began to overtake the other
runners one by one. There were three laps for the end of the race, but Halberg was sprinting with
unbelievable strength. The people wondered, “doesn’t he know how many laps are left?” With two laps
left, Halberg had a clear 18 metre lead. One lap to go with Halberg still in the lead. But he was clearly
becoming weak. His head was rolling from side to side and his teeth were bared in pain. Hans Grodotski,
a German was catching up Halberg. Now Halberg was not fighting the others, but only against himself.
His body was crying out for rest. His body said that Grodotski or anyone else, could have the race. But
his mind did not allow the body to win.
He would now see the white tape at the finishing line. Halberg prepared himself for the last effort, in
case Grodotski overtook him. But Grodotski never did. Halberg fell into the tape and rolled to the
ground. Halberg’s friends gathered around the fallen body. Their minds were full of anxiety. But there
was that faint smile on his face.
Answer the following in a word, a phrase or a sentence:
24. Who won the 5000 metre race in the Olympic Games in 1960?
25. Halberg’s arm was injured in _____________.
a) a car accident
b) a football game
c) the 5000m race
