Q3) a) Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given
below. [10]
Compared with the progress of modern science, evolution is too slow
and error prone. We are entering a period of time when scientists will be
able to greatly surpass natural selection.
First, genetic engineering will allow doctors to modify existing genes
or entirely replace genes to remove genetic defects, treat diseases, and
augment natural abilities. For instance, plants and animals could be
modified to yield better, healthier, and more food. What if your eyesight
could be fixed without surgery? What if all your future children would be
guaranteed not to get your original bad genes of poor vision or a genetic
disease? What if people choose to have their vision enhanced to be far
greater than the natural human range, such as a bird’s vision?How about
people with the reflexes and speed of a cat? Now imagine if a large
number of our children had perfect memory thanks to genetic
modification. These children would find school very easy and would
most likely be far more successful than their parents.
Second, cybernetics could artificially replace human body parts.
People could replace limbs with fully functional machines that would
seamlessly be directly connected to the human brain. The human brain
could be enhanced too. Imagine if people could immediately look up
information just by thinking about it. For example, people would instantly
know what to do in medical emergencies or how to solve complex
problems that they never encountered before, by relying on the knowledge
and experience of other people. Eventually, people could become far
more intelligent, knowledgeable, and capable than anybody who has ever
lived before. Eventually this could lead to completely artificial and
intelligent life forms that are not limited to evolution at all, since they
would not have any organic parts. Instead, they could just upgrade
themselves.
Next, non-intelligence and non-sentient (sentient means self aware
or self conscious) animals would become an intelligent and sentient species
through various methods. This very possible idea is called ‘uplifting’.
Humanity could artificially uplift lowly species to the ranks of civilized
and productive people, for better or worse. Imagine the philosophy,
music, and literature that intelligent animals, such as cats and dolphins,
would invent. I am sure they would be creative in ways that humans are
not... yet. These methods of leapfrogging evolution will ultimately create
hyper-intelligent super beings that are far more capable than human beings.

[5237]-11 -3-
 Hopefully these future people will care more for humanity than we do for
less fortunate people. May be these super beings will be able to solve
some of the world’s greatest problems, such as global warming, pollution
free energy, diseases, etc.
The only problem that I see with these methods of artificial evolution
is that the variety or diversity of people would lessen. The more people
become alike, then the less likely we would have another Mozart or Einstein
if we start restricting variation in our children before they are even born.
As a result, our children will be geniuses but not unique.
Whatever methods that humanity will use to go beyond natural
evolution, the purpose should always be to better humanity, our children,
and ourselves.
Questions:
i) What would be the effect of the advancement in genetic engineering?
ii) What changes will take place due to cybernetics?
iii) What kinds of human beings will be created by these methods of
evolution?
iv) Specify the problems and concerns envisaged by the author?
b) Read the following passage carefully and make notes on it. [10]
The authors are mainly concerned with visual signals: facial
expression, gaze, head and bodyposture, hand movements, interpersonal
distance and spacing; other non-verbal signals such as the intonation
and pace of speech, and dress, are covered more briefly.
Posture and spacing set the scene for an interaction between people.
Under classroom conditions, use of space, personal distance, touch and
posture are related. The message they convey depends on what else is
happening at the time; they often indicate the intensity with which the
main signal is being sent.
Gaze indicates attention and involvement. In most cases people do
not look at each other continuously; the appropriate level of gaze varies
between situations.
Facial expression plays a major role in conveying feelings. It can
also be used to indicate to listeners what they should feel about the
subject being discussed. Intonation, like facial expression, can be used
to show listeners how they should respond to what is being said. It can
convey enthusiasm, authority and so on, but it also plays a major role in
stressing the main and subsidiary elements of an explanation or argument.

[5237]-11 -4-
 Timing in speech sends similar messages. Timing between speakers,
especially the time a speaker or questioner is prepared to wait for a
response (wait time), indicates aspects of the relationship such as the
degree of respect for the other’s contribution.
Hand movements fall into three main groups: wielding movements
such as picking up and moving things, which do not have a communicative
purpose; speech-related gestures which convey messages about the
subject that is being talked about; and relationship oriented signals. Under
classroom conditions many of the latter are signals of dominance or
control.

Q4) a) Write a cohesive paragraph on any one of the following. [10]

i) Addiction to smart phones
ii) Use of English in courts
iii) Tit for tat
b) Write an application for the post of Legal Advisor in a bank. [10]
OR
Write a letter to the District Magistrate to organise various programmes
to create awareness about elections in public.

Q5) a) Write a précis of the following passage. [10]

Traditionally, the lawyer and client relationship has been an unequal
one, with the lawyer generally in an authoritarian and often paternalistic
role. It was largely assumed that the lawyer’s specialist body of knowledge
entitled him or her literally to lay down the law: to tell the client what he or
she could and could not do without too much concern for what the
client wanted. A more benign version of the same approach is that of the
paternalist, still authoritarian but now claiming to know what is in the
client’s best interests, assuming (or insisting upon) the course of action
that he or she thinks best. The end result in both cases is that different
options are not necessarily explained to the client, client choice is regarded
as irrelevant and the lawyer takes over.
It can be a very attractive proposition for clients to hand over all
their problems to a professional for a solution. This traditional form of
the lawyer and client relationship has been largely self-perpetuating until
relatively recently. There are a number of reasons for what is a discernible
change in client expectations, for example, in relation to the process of

[5237]-11 -5-
 decision making. In the early I 990s, the traditional paternalistic approach
of ‘your lawyer (or doctor) knows best’ began to be challenged.
Only in the last decade or so has attention focused on the skills
professionals need in addition to their mastery of a specialist body of
knowledge. In particular, clients have started to insist that their legal
advisers demonstrate better communication skills. Clients today are better
informed and less accepting, or, as professionals might say, more
demanding. They want to be listened to, to know what is going on and to
have some say in decisions based on information supplied by the
professionals. Nevertheless, client demand for a more equal partnership
with their legal advisers has not, in itself, brought about change. The
impetus for change, however, can be attributed at least in part to the
steady increase in client complaints; and, subsequently, the introduction
of direct training in skills into legal education.
OR
Translate the following passage into Marathi/Hindi.
Interviews come in many shapes and sizes depending on their
function. Most interviews are for the purpose of selecting someone for a
job vacancy. The employer, senior managers or human resources (often
abbreviated to HR) staff will meet with possible candidates, ask them a
series of questions and then decide which person to offer the job to. Not
all interviews are to do with applying for jobs though. For example, you
may be interviewed to become a college student or to secure a place on
a training course, to start voluntary work or to join a social club or
society. Starting a new job does not necessarily mean that you have
done your last interview for a while either. Many of us will be frequently
interviewed once we are in a job, or studying on a course, by our
supervisors, managers or tutors. These interviews can have a variety of
purposes: to appraise or review our progress; to monitor our performance
in the job; to consider specific projects; to help us plan our future
development: to resolve work or study problems and sometimes for
mediation or disciplinary matters if work difficulties persist.
b) Summarise the following passage. [10]
Spoken language was the first form of communication between
human beings. It came long before written language, and writing is a
transcript of speech, not vice versa. This more primitive form of
communication still provides the most direct access to other minds. The
reason why people prefer to listen to a spoken explanation is that it

[5237]-11 -6-
 seems to need less effort to understand than the more formal medium of
writing. Yet some speakers try to make speech as close to writing as
possible, and destroy its freshness and immediacy. Speaking is the direct
route from one mind to another, and is the way we usually choose when
we want to ask a question, or give an explanation. Research shows that
ideas and information are more easily understood and processed through
speech than through writing.
Unless they are pretending to be formal, people usually speak in a
style which is more direct, and easier to understand, than the style in
which they write; speech makes the personal interaction more immediate.
One of the reasons is that when speaking, interest and enthusiasm in the
listeners are generated by non-verbal, as well as by verbal, signals. The
variety and impact of the message are heightened by the presence of
another person. Listeners also feel more secure when they can see the
person who is giving them new information. Their judgement of the validity
of the message, the competence, and the depth of knowledge of the
speaker is easier if non-verbal clues, as well as verbal clues, are available.
There are many reasons why speaking is the best of the communication
channels. It is not always used, largely because people are afraid of their
inexperience and inability to speak well. Yet practice and study can provide
the skill needed to use this most direct path into the minds of others. It is
worth the effort to become an effective speaker.

In the era of the emoticon, who wants to hear bombastic language when
a simple image can capture an emotion?

Most spoken English lessons advocate “thinking in English” to enable

greater fluency in the language. Although I have been thinking in English
since my childhood, long before I knew its importance, I find it a little
funny now! How do you even think with words? The dark cave of our
brain gets lit now and then by flashes of thought, in the form of images,
mostly. As young learners we have all experienced that visual inputs tend
to linger with us for a while longer than audio inputs. Even as we got
older, we were advised to use colours in our handwritten notes than
writing in monochromatic blue or black, in order to aid memory. These
are clear indicators of the limitations of language, if you’d call it that.
Our online chatting sessions are greatly enlivened by the use of emoticons
that are all the rage these days. There is no dearth of these emojis. There
are even research institutes dedicated to studying their patterns of use.
Nearly every known human experience and reaction has an electronic
equivalent in the form of these cute emoticons that have evolved from
simple smiley faces.

Looks like the Grammar Nazis are doomed, for more than punctuation
marks: everyday folks now look out for emoticons at the end or between
a text messages to fully grasp the meaning that the sender implied (including
sometimes sarcasm). As I have come to grasp it, they endear to us by
their visual force and the straightforward injection of information to the
mind by means of simple yet clever wordplay. That language evolved
from pictographic cave-markings is common knowledge. What if all the
learning we acquired through language will require unlearning by the
replacement of images or visual data? After all, the purpose of language
is communication, and as long as the receiving end gets the message,
who really cares about the medium? Who wants to hear bombastic language
when a simple image can capture an emotion?

[5237]-21 -4-
Q4) a) Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given
below. [15]

In every area of society, ethics plays a major role in decision making.

Personal integrity and ethical choices can influence a successful life and
career. Many societal views correlate ethics with integrity. Integrity is the
single most important attribute a person can have; a trait that can be a
powerful weapon. Compromising personal principles in any way impacts
your ability to conduct life in a moral fashion. A person’s core values
reflect honesty and truth and focuses on the ability to make the right and
just decision.

Ethics is the study and examination of what constitutes good or bad

conduct. Ethics is the classification of specific behaviors as right or
wrong within a person’s personal or profession life. Ethical behavior
provides the guidelines which are the foundation for success or failure in
each person’s life.

Events that arise from ethical issues can build or destroy a person’s
reputation or career. Values, beliefs, education, and experiences provide
an ethical foundation in your life. Most societal values center on ethical
behaviors in people and because of this; we look at others unfavorably
when unethical behaviors are exhibited. There is evidence that teaching
children at an early age is the most effective time to reinforce ethics. The
issue is that the teaching of ethics must be learned by the child and
reinforced by the parents. The parents and role models need to teach by
example through direction and offering children choices. Taking a
proactive part in moral guidelines will shape and lead the person into
adulthood and their life as a productive member of society.

Parents need to establish good solid values and make sure children adhere
to certain rules, morals, and conduct. If a parent has impractical
expectations or no rules. they will fail at producing a child who will be
trustworthy, honest, and moral.

Within the ideal of ethics there are distinctive traits and morals one must
possess in their professional life apart from integrity. Honest is being
able to be creditable and trustworthy as an officer. Honest officers are
essential and their worth is beyond measure. Values are a measure of a
person's standards or qualities. Courage is overcoming a person's fear
to do the right thing, even if it is not the most accepted thing. Civility is

[5237]-21 -5-
 being respectful and polite to all citizens encountered by law enforcement.
The comparison between both personal and professional ethics correlates
to the same values and beliefs in both instances. These two areas build a
foundation and if there is corruption in either area it will adversely influence
the other. Therefore, we must all maintain a solid personal and professional
ethical basis if we are to promote the ideal of ethics and morals in our
personal and professional lives.

i) Describe Ethics as described by the author in your own words.

ii) Events that arise from ethical issues can build or destroy a person's
reputation or career - Explain.

iii) What is the role of parents in instilling core values in children?

iv) What does the writer say about professional ethics?

Q4) a) Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given
below: [10]

The twin concern for the nature and the human kind are part of single
ecosystem such as if the harm is made to nature or environment, it
ultimately harms the other i.e. human, Nowadays, land and common
environmental resources are used in the ways that do not take amount of
the environment; as a consequence, it is often reversible deterioration in
the environment. Deforestation and pollution of rivers, for example not
only affect nature but also the way in which human beings live. Today,
we know that it is clearly futile to monitor the cleanliness of atmosphere,
water and soil without curbing those who pollute them. An understanding
of the simple systematic rule, ‘think globally and act loyally’ must be
addressed to every citizen a necessity of citizenship. Today environment
concern ranges from social climate to the biosphere, from various kinds
of pollution to climate change and vanishing bio-diversity from water
disposal, air and water pollution, public health concern to the field of
nature and natural resource in all its diversity and complexity. The
expanding global economy destroys ecosystem. Evidence of these can
be seen in the shrinking forest, eroding soil, falling water level, rising
temperature, melting glacier, disappearing plant and animal species,
collapse of local ecosystem massively with each passing year. In such
scenario, a mere declaration of fundamental rights is meaningless unless
there is effective machinery for the enforcement of right. It is the remedy
which makes the right real. If there is no remedy, there is no right at all.
Our Constitution has incorporated a long list of fundamental rights which
also provides an effective remedy for the enforcement of the right under
article 32 of the Constitution. In order to function effectively, the civil
society group should ascertain certain rights in order to give systematic
education on the environment and also to participate in the inflammation
of environment regulation. This principle also recognizes the right of
citizens to participate in the process of making public decision concerning
the environment either by expressing their opinion or by having recourse
to law or by participating in collective advisory body. Thus, Environment
is a science closest to the nature. In the field of environment law, the
judiciary plays the most important role than the legislature. The
contribution of the Supreme Court of India in protecting the environment
and ecology has been phenomenal.

[5237]-41 -4-
 i) Whom does deterioration in the environment affect?

ii) What does the rule ‘Think globally and act loyally’ mean with
reference to passage?

iii) What is the effect of expanding global economy? What are the
evidences of it?

iv) What is the role of judiciary in the field of environment law?

b) Read the following passage carefully and make notes on it: [10]

Legal writing is stuffy, pompous, wordy, artificial, often ungrammatical,

jargon-filled and pretentious. Verbose writing creates confusion in the
minds of the readers specially laymen. An advocate should always use
words as provide instant understanding to the reader and his aim must
be to persuade the judge with good, lucid, forceful English that is
grammatical, clearly written and read naturally. Poor English is not
tolerated by judges and when written down becomes an unnecessary
distraction on the page. Advocates should know how to use English
properly. In an endeavor to counteract the negative effects of legalese,
there has developed a trend toward ‘plain English’. It began as a consumer
movement to simplify the language of the law so that the public can
understand documents that they may be required to sign, such as
apartment deed, rental agreement, leases, insurance policies, or
promissory notes. The plain English movement has had had a salutary
effect as well within the legal process. Jurors do not always understand
fully the instructions given to them by judges. Most of the time, the
difficulty is not so much due to vocabulary items, but due to particular
types of grammatical constructions, such as the occurrence of multiple
negatives and the excessive use of passive sentences and of
nominalizations.

Q5) a) Write a précis of the following passage: [10]

Domestic violence sometimes referred to domestic abuse occurs when a

family member, parent or the partner attempts to physically or
psychologically dominate another. Domestic violence often refers to
violence between spouses but can also include co-habitant and non-
married intimate partner. To simplify, domestic violence is physical, sexual,

[5237]-41 -5-
 economic or physiological abuse directed towards one’s spouse, partner
or other family member within household. The definition refers to the
gender base root of violence, recognizing that violence against women is
one of the crucial social mechanism by which women are forced into
subordinate position compared with men. Domestic violence occurs in
all cultures, people of all races, ethnicity, religions and classes. The
protection of women from domestic violence act 2005 came into force
in India on 26th October, 2006. Primarily, Domestic Violence Act is meant
to provide protection to the wife or female, live-in partner from violence
at the hand of husband or male live-in partner or relative. Domestic Violence
Act also tends in protection of women who are sisters or mothers. The
main purpose of this act is to protect more effectively the rights of women
guaranteed under the Constitution. The Indian Constitution is the original
source of all rights of women. The principle of gender equality has been
emphasized in the Indian Constitution, its preamble, fundamental rights,
fundamental duties and directive principles. The Constitution not only
grants equality to women but also empowers the state to adopt positive
measures in favour of women. India has also satisfied various International
Conventions and Human Right Committees to secure equal rights of
women. Protection of women from Domestic Violence Act 2005 is indeed
a very,useful tool for women who are victim of violence. There is no
doubt that with this Act, a whole Pandora box of litigations will be thrown
open and all the degradation, brutality and cruelty against women that
has been carefully swept under the carpet for centuries in our old rich
heritage is going to be exposed. Therefore, this act could definitely be
helpful in putting an end to all the degradation and Drutality.

OR

Translate the following passage into Marathi/Hindi. [10]

Article 14 guarantees to every person the right not to be denied equality

before the law or the equal protection of the1aws. The first expression
‘equality before the law’ which is taken from the English Common law is
a declaration of equality of all persons within the territory of India,
implying thereby the absence of any special privilege in favour of any
individual. Every person whatever be his rank or position is subject to
the jurisdiction of the ordinary courts. Professor Dicey in explaining the
concept of legal equality as operating in England said: “With us every
official from the Prime Minister down to a constable or a collector of
taxes is under the some responsibility for every act done without any

[5237]-41 -6-
 legal justification as any other citizen.” The second expression, the equal
protection of the laws which is rather a corollary of the first expression
and is based on the last clause of the first section of the Fourteenth
Amendment to the American Constitution, directs that equal protection
shall be secured to all persons within the territorial jurisdiction of the
union in the enjoyment of their rights and privileges without favouritism
or discrimination. It has been said that ‘the equal protection of the laws
is a pledge of protection or guarantee of equal laws.
