MP Board Class 11th  Section-A (Reading)

Q.1 Read the following passage and answer the questions on the basis of comprehension of the passage.

Migration is a natural process, whereby different birds fly over distances of hundreds to thousands of kilometres in order to find the best ecological conditions and habitats for feeding, breeding and raising their young. For instance, when the conditions in the breeding grounds become very difficult due to low temperatures migratory birds fly to regions where conditions are better.

There are many different migration patterns. Most birds migrate from northern breeding areas in the summer, to southern wintering grounds. However, some birds breed in the far south of Africa, and migrate to northern wintering grounds, or horizontally, to enjoy the milder coastal climates in winter. Other birds migrate in terms of altitude, moving higher up a mountain in summer, and wintering on the lowlands.

Migratory birds have the perfect morphology and physiology to fly fast and over long distances. However, they often experience an exhausting journey during which they go to their limits. The Red Knot eg, a 24 cm long wader with a weight of around 220 g. breeds in Siberia and overwinters on the African West coast, some of its species even going down to South Africa. During its migration it loses nearly half of its body weight.

Migratory birds therefore rarely fly to their destination non-stop. but interrupt their journey frequently to rest and feed, or to sit out a spell of bad weather. How migrating birds exactly find their flyways is not fully understood. Newest experiments indicate that they are orientating along the Earth’s magnetic field with special light receptors in their eyes.

Humans have always been fascinated and inspired by the phenomenon of bird migration. In ancient Greece the bird of Athena represented the renewal of life. A dove, with an olive branch in its beak, returned to Noah’s ark to announce the end of the deadly flood.

The dove remained a symbol of peace and hope. During the era of the Pharos in Egypt, the falcon had protective powers and was linked to royalty. For the Native Americans birds had different meanings, always positive and linked to the concepts of unity, freedom, community, safe return, love and celebration of life.

in dreams birds embody fantasy, ideas and thoughts. The image of a flying bird is immediately connected with lightness and freedom and hence the expression “to be free as a bird”. Many people associate flocks of migrating birds in the typical V-like alignment with the change of season, but also with perfection, beauty and harmony. Until the 18th century people believed that swallows sank in mires at the beginning of autumn and appeared again as amphibians in the following spring.

And still today some parents mark their houses with painted storks to indicate that a new baby has been born. In almost all cultures, for centuries flocks of birds have announced the arrival of spring, andthe yearly rebirth of nature associated with it. The social acceptance of birds at messengers of life was accompanied by the knowledge that migration had indeed an important role to play in ecosystem functioning

Q.2 Read the following passage and make notes on the basis of your comprehension of the passage. Give a suitable title.

This isn’t a mountain region of mere subjective beauty. Nor one, which claims its greatness, based on just an overwhelming opinion of a large majority, For Sikkim is a treasure that few know about However, the facts of its remarkable geography bear enough testimony to pitch Sikkim in a slot that no other mountain region,

anywhere in the world, could duplicate or rival. What Everest is to peaks, Sikkim is to the mountains. Tragically, a region so wild and exotic and with such geographic and climatic extremes, with its amazing wilds and not its unremarkable hill stations, ensure its accessibility to the adventurous only.

Just delve on these facts a bit. From the plains, in a mere 80 km as the crow flies, the altitude reaches 28,168 feet at the very top of Kanchenjunga, the third highest peak in the world. Such a sharp elevation is unrivalled anywhere else and is the first geographical claim of Sikkim.

The second is an offshoot of the first. Nowhere else do so many 7,000 metre plus peaks crowd up in such a confined space. And the third is really a consequence of the first and the second with the sharp gradation, creating the most variegated flora and fauna possible anywhere in the mountains.

The fourth uniqueness is also a consequence of the first and the second and lies in the extremes of the climate which ranges from the tropical to the typical arctic type. And the fifth claim is its thin permanent population and relatively fewer travellers by virtue of its remote far-eastern Himalayan location

We lifted her off the bed and, as is customary, laid her on the ground and covered her with a red shroud, After a few hours of mourning, we left her alone to make arrangements for her funeral.

We stopped half-way in the courtyard.

All over the verandah and in her room right up to where she lay dead and stiff wrapped in the red shroud, thousands of sparrows sat scattered on the floor. There was no chirruping.
