TOPIC: MISCELLANEOUS
I. Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow:
Travel is a bug that was in me when I was born, probably inherited from my father. In 24 years of
travelling widely through India, I have been most fascinated by those little islands that dot the Bay of
Bengal off the East Coast of India. Yes, I am talking about the Andaman Islands. Andamans somehow
seemed almost sinister, with images of being haunted, bleak and scary, until my parents actually returned
from a trip to Port Blair and told us about these serene islands. We immediately awaited the first
opportunity to take a break and check them out. Finally, the D-Day came and we were all ready. We
boarded the aircraft and to our surprise found that there were several empty seats. On enquiry, we learnt
that all supplies to the Andamans including newspaper and meat go from the mainland and so there is
always more cargo and less people.
Port Blair airport is a small, old airport that was constructed in 1947. On my way to the hotel I noticed that
there are none of the usual autorickshaws that noisily wend their way through most Indian towns. There
was only one traffic signal in the entire town and the roads were more ups-and-downs than level. This was
all surprising for a person like me who has lived in the coastal towns of Chennai and Mumbai. The colour
of the sea was an unpolluted blue, a colour that I had not seen in any of the beaches in India. It was calm
and beautiful. I was thrilled with the fact that we were going to spend 10 entire days there. All we had to do
was sit in the open restaurant, look at the sea, enjoy the cool breeze and feel good.
The Andaman Islands are a group of several islands, so most of our sightseeing was by boats. There are a
total of more than 356 islands there. Even the oldest boatman, Rathnarn, had seen only 200 of them. I
figured that 10 days was surely not enough to get a full picture of this place, so I started to store every
sight, every sound and every smell. The sound and light show at the jail sent a shiver down my spine. (This
trip was before the movie 'Kalapani' was released). The realisation that those who fought for our
Independence had lived, struggled, suffered and even died here left an impact.
On the basis of your reading of the above passage, answer the questions that follow.
(i) What kind of a passage is this?
(a) Fiction (b) Travelogue (c) Persuasive (d) Biography
(ii) Why was the author interested in taking a trip to Andaman Islands?
(a) It had a haunted, bleak and scary image.
(b) As his parents had not recently taken a trip there.
(c) He loved travelling.
(d) He was largely fascinated by what his parents told him about the islands.
(iii) Why was the author surprised when he reached Port Blair?
(a) The airport was very big.
(b) There was no traffic signal in the entire town.
(c) Living in a busy city, he had never expected such a town.
(d) None of the above.
(iv) What is the meaning of the phrase 'sent a shiver down my spine'?
(a) Feel very frightened (b) Feel very excited
(c) Feel very relaxed (d) None of these
(v) One thing that left a major impact on the author was …
(a) the serenity of the place
(b) the wholesome experience

(CL-XII/Holiday H.W /2024-25/ENGLISH/Page 1 of 2)

 (c) vastness of the islands
(d) the realisation that freedom fighters had lived, struggled and died there
(vi) The word ………… in para 1 means 'provisions'.
(vii) The word in the passage which is an antonym of 'contaminated' is…… (para 2)
(ix) ‘Andamans somehow seemed almost sinister, with images of being haunted, bleak and scary’. How
did the notion change?

2. Draft a notice in 50 words urging students of class 9 - 12 to be volunteer teachers for a three week
literacy camp to be held in your school for the children of the neighborhood slums as a part of the
community service internship. Mention the dates timings and the venue of the camp. You are Rakshit/Rohit
teacher in-charge of Community Service Club, MNV Public School, Delhi.

3. Read the following extract carefully and answer the questions that follow.
Driving from my parents home to Cochin last Friday morning, 1 saw my mother, beside me,
doze, open mouthed, her face ashen like that of a corpse and realised with pain
that she was as old as she looked but soon
put that thought away, …
(My Mother at Sixty- Six)
i. The poet has realized that--------
A. her mother should look cheerful like moon
B. mother has grown old and week
C. the mother could take care of herself
D. all of the above
ii. What did the narrator do to avoid painful thought?
iii. The poet observed outside that ______________________
iv. State whether the following is true or false
The poetic device used in like ‘that of a corpse’ ‘is same as the poetic device used in ‘Feather of lead,
bright smoke, cold fire, sick health.’
v. What did the poet do at the airport?
vi. Identify the word in the stanza which means ‘running fast’?
4. Answer the following questions in about 40-50 words.
a. Do you think the mother tongue is important to a person? What does M Hamel, the teacher say about it
to the people of France in the chapter The Last Lesson’.
b. The poem ‘My Mother at Sixty-Six’ talks about the fears and aches of a child. Comment.
c. ‘Education begins at home’. The story, ‘The Last Lesson’ talks about the responsibility of the parents
and how they have not been able to do their part of the duty.
d. Anees Jung in her story ‘Lost Spring’ vividly highlights the miserable life of bangle makers of
Firozabad. Justify the statement by referring to the living conditions of the two bangle maker families as
described in the story?

1. Sohan has created a nested list containing four elements in each sub-list, as shown
below:
NList = [[8,11,10,12], [5,14,6,7], [2,4,5,19], [3,12,5,12]]
What will be the output, if the following list slices are used?
a) NList[0] b) NList[-2] c) NList[2][1:] d) NList[1][2:]
2. The record of a student (Name, Roll No., Marks in five subjects and average marks)
is stored in the list My_Rec, as shown below:
My_Rec = [“Rohan”, “CB/12/28”, [70, 92, 88, 72, 76], 79.6]
Write Python statements to perform the following operations on the list My_Rec:
a) To access marks in the fifth subject
b) To find the maximum marks of the student

Working with Function

Assertion and Reasoning Based Questions

1. Assertion (A): Function is defined as a set of statements written under a specific name
in the python code.
Reasoning (R): The complete block (set of statements) is used at different instances in
the program as and when required, referring the function name. It is a common code to
execute for different values (arguments), provided to a function.
Based on the above discussion, choose an appropriate statement from the options given
below:
(a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
(b) Both A and R are true and R is not the correct explanation of A.
(c) A is true and R is false.
(d) A is false and R is true.
2. Assertion (A): Like built-in functions, user-defined functions are also defined by the
system developers.
Reasoning (R): The user-defined functions are basically created to handle some
unexpected situations and unwanted errors appearing in the code. Once it is executed,
the code is debugged and to eliminate exceptions.
Based on the above discussion, choose an appropriate statement from the options given
below:
(a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
(b) Both A and R are true and R is not the correct explanation of A.
(c) A is true and R is false.
(d) A is false and R is true.
3. Assertion (A): The local and global variables declared with the same name in the
function are treated same
by the Python interpreter.
Reasoning (R): The variables declared within the function block are treated as local
(CL-XII/Holiday Homework/2024-25/CS/Page 4 of 8)
variables whereas, the variables declared outside the function block are referred to as
global variables.
Based on the above discussion, choose an appropriate statement from the options given
below:
(a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
(b) Both A and R are true and R is not the correct explanation of A.
(c) A is true and R is false.
(d) A is false and R is true.
