1. Read the passage carefully and answer the questions that follow:
Thirteen hundred years ago there came a great traveller from China to India. He came in search of wisdom andm knowledge. His name was Hiuen Tsang. He spent many years in India, learning himself and teaching others. For some time he studied at the great University of Nalanda. It was then near the city called Pataliputra, now known as Patna. Hiuen Tsang became very learned. He journeyed all over India. He saw and studied the people that lived in this great country in those far-off days. Later he wrote a book on his travels. It is this book which contains the story that comes to my mind. The story is about a man from South India who came to Karna Suvarna. It was a city somewhere near modern Bhagalpur in Bihar. The story says that this man wore round his waist copper plates. On his head
he carried a lighted torch, and a staff in his hand. With proud bearing and lofty steps, he wandered about in this strange attire.

The lion used to be much more widely distributed in Africa and Asia than it is today. If it survives, it will probably, do so in the national parks that enlightened countries have set aside forit to live in, unmolested by man. Lions usually live in family parties called a “pride’, which commonly consists of a lion, two lionesses and cubs. They usually prey on zebras and antelopes, but pigs and other game are sometimes killed if opportunity offers. Wild lions are not normally a menace to man, unless wounded or otherwise aroused.

…Only man can destroy completely in his greed and was….cruelty.

A slumber did my spirit seal;
I had no human fears:
She seemed a thing that could not feel
The touch of earthly years.
No motion has she now, no force;
She neither hears nor sees;
Rolled round in earth’s diurnal course,
With rocks, and stones, and trees.

Qutub Minar
I had been informed along with a few schoolmates that we had been selected to go somewhere for travelling. However,the catch was that we were not informed where. On February 22,the day we were to leave, we were told that we had been selected as the lucky few to explore the epitome of Mughal architecture—The Qutub Minar. The minaret,constructed with sandstone,stands as the world’s tallest brick minaret,at a height of 72.5 metres. Though construction work on the UNESCO heritage site was first initiated by Qutub-ud-din Aibak,it is believed that after his tragic death, it was completed by his descendant, Iltutamish. This is the very earliest example of Indo- Islamic architecture, which means that it is influenced of both Islamic and the Hindu styles of building. It has been said that it houses India’s first mosque,which is a factor that enhances the legend’s charm. All considered the sight of the Qutub Minar will make your jaw drop in awe and search for words in vain. It will leave you speechless, literally.

Ans. Honourable Principal, respected teachers and my dear friends. I am Yuvraj of class-X. Today the topic of my speech is ‘Gandhi Jayanti’.
Today, on his birthday, let us remember him and celebrate this day with joy and prosperity. His life was an inspiration for all of us and the sacrifices he made, are our responsibilities
now. Let us contribute ourselves to the growth and development of our country, to pay a salute to Nation’s Father. Do not waste their efforts and struggles, by letting India go down. Even our Prime Minister, Mr. Narendra Modi has started Swachh Bharat Abhiyan, to maintain the cleanliness of our society, on this very important day.
A speech is not enough to speak about Mahatma Gandhi’s values and deeds. But, we as the future of the country, can honor him by living our life following his principles of truth, peace, and non-violence and lead our country to an incredible nation. Jai Hind, Jai Bharat!
