Q6. Read the poem given below and answer the questions that follow

The Green Cornfield

The earth was green, the sky was blue;

I saw and heard on sunny morn

A skylark hang between the two

A singing speak above the corn;

A stage below, in happy accord,

White butterflies danced on the wing,

And still the singing skylark soared,

And silent sank, and soared to sing.

The cornfield stretched a tender green

To right and left beside my walks;

I knew he had a nest unseen

Somewhere among the million stalks.

And as I paused to hear his song,

While swift the sunny moment slid,

Perhaps his mate sat listening long,

And listened longer than I did.

-Christina Rossetti

Q3. Read the passage give below and answer the following questions.

When he was born on February 12, 1809, his parents probably never considered that their newborn

would one day become the 16th President of the United States, nor that his birthday would help

inspire a national holiday. Unlike many of his predecessors, Abraham Lincoln came from humble

beginnings. He was born to Thomas and Nancy Lincoln who lived in a log cabin in Hardin County,

Kentucky.

Lincoln's parents had also come from humble beginnings. His grandfather had been killed by Native

Americans and his father was an uneducated laborer who had to work hard to find steady work and

take care of his family. After finally earning enough to purchase three farms in Kentucky, his family

was forced off of the land and moved to Indiana. From his father, Lincoln learned to pick up and

move on in the face of trouble. In fact, Thomas Lincoln had to pick up and move on multiple times

in his life. The family lost a son when he was just an infant and Abraham Lincoln's mother, died in

1818 after becoming ill.

Even though she died when he was only nine-years-old, Lincoln's mother also had lessons to teach

the young Abraham Lincoln about resilience. She was born an illegitimate child, the daughter of

Lucy Hanks and a wealthy farmer. Her mother eventually married and her stepfather raised her as

his own. Through working on the farm and as a seamstress, Nancy (Hanks) Lincoln developed her

knowledge and skills. Before marrying her husband, she successfully worked as a seamstress. After

marrying her husband, many historical documents note that she became the backbone of the family.

The death of his mother hit nine-year-old Abraham Lincoln hard. She had been the one to teach him

his letters and develop many of the character traits for which he would become best-known. When

she died, Lincoln helped his father build his mother's coffin, something no nine-year-old should ever

have to do. At the time of his mother's death, the family was squatting on land in Indiana and his

father was having a hard time supporting his family. Much of the household responsibilities fell on

Lincoln and his sister, Sarah.

While Abraham Lincoln penned the quote "I walk slowly, but I never walk backward" later in his

life, the same principle no doubt inspired the younger Lincoln after his mother's death. His father

made him work on the farm and put a lot of responsibilities on the young man's shoulders. Instead of

getting an education, he spent his days working and resenting his father.

Thankfully, mere months after his mother died, Thomas Lincoln re-married. While a stepmother is

not usually a welcome addition to a child's life, in Abraham Lincoln's case, his stepmother Sarah

Bush Johnson became a blessing. Even though times were hard and there was work to be done, she

stressed the importance of education. Through her instruction and his dedication, Lincoln learned

how to read and became a lover of books. He would travel far to borrow books from neighbors and

libraries, spend time reading the family Bible and devour any books he could find.

Young Abraham Lincoln understood that while he could not change his circumstances, he did have

an ounce of control over them and, when you're already down, there's no place to go but up, even if it

takes time to get there.

Q1. What lesson did the life of Nancy Lincoln teach young Lincoln?

Q2. What is the quote that inspired Lincoln during the hardship of his life?

Q3. Who became of blessing to young Lincoln? How?

Q4. What lesson did young Abraham Lincoln learn from the hardships of life?

Q5. Find the synonym of ‘commitment’ (para 6).

Q6. Find the antonym of the word ‘successor’ from passage. (para 1).

CLASS VII

Q1. Read the following passage and answer these questions.

Clean water supplies are essential for good health and cleanliness in the home .Often the only

source of drinking water is polluted .More than 70 per cent of rural households have no safe

drinking water .Their supplies are often carried some distance from a river ,pond or well, or a

community pump or tap. Carrying water takes time and energy. For these reasons,

water is often kept in the house for a long time and, of necessity, it is rationed carefully.

Several diseases are spread by polluted water, these include diarrhoea,

cholera and typhoid Families using water from uncovered ponds or wells are likely to suffer

more frequently from all these infections than those whose water comes from protected sites.

An adequate supply of water is also needed for personal cleanliness and general hygiene in the

home. Health workers should encourage the provision of good household water supplies as

much as possible.

If there is no tap, the main water container must be kept clean, covered and free

from debris. Overnight storage in earthen ware vessels reduces the number of bacteria in the

water. Nevertheless, it is important that any water given to infants is first boiled. After boiling

it should be covered in the same container until it is cool enough to drink.
