And buzzed the Name of god a hundred times
To paralyse the evil one
With candles and with lanterns
Throwing giant scorpion shadows
On the mud-baked walls
They searched for him; he was not found.

5. Read the following Passage given below and answer the questions that follow.
Human Civilization has been around for a short period of 12,000 years. Barely in that short amount of time, we have dominated nature, with our villages, towns, cities mega cities. The rapid increase of human population has left us battling with other species for limited resources. Burning of fossil fuel has now created a blanket of carbon dioxide around the world which is slowly but surely increasing the average global temperature.
Climate change is one of the most hotly contested environmental debates of our time. Will the west Antarctic ice sheet be melted entirely? Will it be the end of the world as we know it? May be, may be not. Either way Antarctica is a crucial element in this debate not just because it’s the only place in the world which has never sustained a human population and therefore,remains relatively“Pristine” in this aspect;but more importantly,because it holds in its ice covers half million old carbon records trapped in its layers of ice.
i. How has human life affected nature? 4 x 2 = 8
ii. What is the cause of global warming?
ii. What makes Antarctica different from the other regions of the world?

6. Read the following Passage given below and answer the questions that follow. 4 x 2 = 8
The most exciting adventure would be to go to forest and see wild animals, both the little ones and the big. Foolish people go there with a gun and kill them and thus put an end to something that was beautiful. It is far more interesting and amusing to wander about without a gun or any other weapon and to find that wild animals are not afraid and can be approached. Animals have keener instincts than man. If a man goes to them with murder in his heart, they are afraid to him and run away. But if he has any love for animals, they realize that he is a friend and do not. If you are full of fear yourself, then the animal is afraid too and might attack you in self defence. The fearless person is seldom, if ever,attacked. Perhaps the lesson might be applied to human beings also. If we meet other people in a friendly way,they also become friendly.But if we are afraid of them or if we show our dislike of them,then they behave in the same manner.
i. What lesson do we have to learn from animals?
ii. What is the best way to approach the animals?
iii. What helps animals understand the motives of a human being?
iv. What sort of person is not attacked by animals?

7. Read the Passage given below. Then fill in the table below with properties of synthetic and natural blood. 4 x 1 = 4
Often, there is serve shortage of natural blood. On the other hand, Blood substitutes have persuasive selling points. Unlike real blood, artificial blood has a shelf life of only weeks; artificial blood could be stored in some cases upto three years. And medical personnel could forget about patient’s blood type, because the substitute is a perfect match for anyone. That would speed transfusion inemergencies,where every minute counts.Since molecules of the synthetic blood can be as much as thousand times smaller than red blood cell, they can squeeze past abstractions a blood clot that’s starving the heart on the brain, killing crucial tissues second by second – to give life saving oxygen where it is needed.

Games are important for human life. Without them it is harder for a person to be sound in body and mind. For one thing if a person is to fulfill all the duties that society expects of him, it is important for him to keep healthy. He may be very intelligent, but that has little meaning if he cannot make use of his intelligence, because he is always suffering from bad health. In some ways the human body is like a machine if it is not made use of, it starts to work badly.
Secondly, playing and therefore experiencing winning and losing encourages the spirit of sportsmanship, thus enabling one to deal with life’s problems in a wise and natural manner. Games teach the truth embodied in the Olympic motto. “The important thing in playing is not winning or losing, but the participation, and I may add doing the best one can.
We have to remember some other things about playing games. However, first it is the physical exercise that is important for health, not the games themselves and there are other ways of getting this. It is also possible to be too interested in games. If we let games become the most important thing in our lives, we may be in danger of changing Olympic motto to “the important things is winning”. Never the less inspite of these dangers, playing games can be a valuable activity, and if we taken part in them wisely we can gain great benefits.
