PART II : ENGLISH COMPREHENSION
Read the following passage carefully to answer the questions given below

(10 Marks)

Every breath came wheezing out of me like an asthmatic in trouble. My legs felt like lead and
though it was cold and windy, my clothes were though it was cold and windy, my clothes were damp
with sweat.
Only 30 minutes more, said Qasimwani my much older and fitter forest guide and friend.
What he never added was that the kilometre long trudge to our next nest-stop Sangargulu in upper
Dachigam 4,000 metres above sea-level was almost straight up as he himself doesnt find the climb
difficult.
We had walked for five straight hours, starting from the lower reaches of Kashmirs
Dachigam National Park roughly following the route of the Himalayan glacier-fed Dagwan river up to
its source. I had come to know and love this crystal mountain stream well. It sustained an incredible
diversity in abundance of flora and fauna a nature coupled with animals before pouring its musical
aqua into Srinagars famed Dal Lake; without the Dagwan, the health and economy of Srinagar
would beat a risk. I thought to myself as I paused, frequently to take in the sight of sanctuary of
black bears, yellow throated mantels, Dachigams endangered Hangul deer, Hanuman Langurd
monkeys and the throb of buzz of bees and shrills of birds and multi-hued insects all around. And
my word. The birds! Red billed blue magpies, redstarts , orioles and woodpeckers combined with
warblers to set up an orchestra providing a welcome mist-laden breather from the leg-after-leg goat
trek hike that stole my breath away. Like leaves of a book, every 1000 metres or so new stories
unfolded as the national canvas changed. Verdant which are green and flourishing Chinar, Oak and
Walnut gave way to higher elevation forests of silver Birch and Conifers where spiders and sawscaled vipers shared silent space in the dark root hollows of ancient trees. Above the treeline
amidst Junipers and one of our planets most spectacular wild flower fields in Sungargulu, I
momentarily caught my breath, lay down and slept for a while.
The 141 square kilometres Dachigam was a second home away from our Bombay home till
the mid 1980s. Back then Dachigam had its problems but they were different excess grazing, wood
cutting, a sheep farm and trout hatchery in the heart of the park that we wanted out. Today there is
a deep hollow, a pain. It is the relentless destruction of all that makes Kashmir. Kashmir beneath the
picture postcard insets are deforested slopes, polluted rivers and lakes, and hard evidence of
relentless march of climate change-much of it is the result of human interference resulting in melting
glaciers, the retreat of junipers, early and late flowering, nesting and erratic migration. Such
fluctuations are destabilizing the ecological foundations of Kashmir.
Is all lost then? Are the hundreds of other Himalayan valleys condemned to a fate worse than
death? No, far from it, India as cautious hope can escape the worst impact of climate change if we
act purposefully but the public will probably have to force the policy makers to move away from
carbon energy and restore the many degraded ecosystems that sequester and store carbon, and
buffer us from floods and droughts.
