large pod is called a ‘herd’. They are very social and help each other fight off predators. Dolphins brain has
two sides. One side sleeps while the other side stays awake.
18. Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow. Your answer should be accurate,
precise and limited to a word or phrase or a simple sentence.
The Indian Army is the land-based branch and the largest component of the Indian Armed Forces.
The President of India is the Supreme Commander of the Indian Army, and it is commanded by the Chief of
Army Staff (COAS), who is a four-star general. The primary mission of the Indian Army is to ensure
national security and national unity, defending the nation from external aggression and internal threats, and
maintaining peace and security within its borders. It conducts humanitarian rescue operations during natural
calamities and other disturbances, like Operation Surya Hope, and can also be requisitioned by the
government to cope with internal threats. It is a major component of national power alongside the Indian
Navy and the Indian Air Force. The army has been involved in four wars with neighbouring Pakistan and
one with China. Other major operations undertaken by the army include: Operation Vijay, Operation
Meghdoot and Operation Cactus.
a) What is the largest component of Indian Armed Forces?

8 A) Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow. Your answer should be
accurate, precise and limited to a word or phrase or a simple sentence.
Animals living in modern zoos enjoy several advantages over animals in the wild; however, they must
also suffer some disadvantages. One advantage of living in the zoo is that the animals are separated
from their natural predators; they are protected and can, therefore, live without risk of being attacked.
Another advantage is that they are regularly fed a special, well-balanced diet; thus, they do not have to
hunt for food or suffer times when food is hard to find. On the other hand, zoo animals face several
disadvantages. The most important disadvantage is that since they do not have to hunt for food or face
their enemies, some animals became bored, discontented or even nervous. Another disadvantage is that
zoo visitors can endanger their lives. Some animals can pick up airborne diseases from humans.
Questions:
a) What are the two animal habitations mentioned in the passage?
b) Give the main advantage of animals living in zoo.
c) What kind of food is the zoo animals fed with?
d) What is the most disadvantage aspect faced by the zoo animals?
e) How do you think that the visitors can harm the zoo animals?
f) Do you support keeping the animals in a zoo for our entertainment? Justify your answer in a sentence.
g) Pick the word from the passage that would mean: A violent or bigger animal that kills and eats the other
tiny animal.
h) Suggest a suitable title for the passage.
OR
B) Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow. Your answer should be
accurate, precise and limited to a word or phrase or a simple sentence.
“I say to you today, my friends, even though we face the difficulties’ of today and tomorrow, I
still have a dream. I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up, live out the true meaning of its creed.
I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia sons of former slaves and sons of former slave-
owners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood. I have a dream that my four little
children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the colour of their skin but by the
content of their character. I have a dream…. I have a dream that one day in Alabama, with its vicious racists,
with its governor having his lips dripping with the words of interposition and nullification, one day right
there in Alabama little black boys and black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and white
girls as sisters and brothers:” On 28th August in 1963, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. spoke these immortal
words to a crowd of over 200000 people who had gathered for the now historic march in Washington to
demand an end to racial segregation in the USA, and for equality in jobs and civil rights.
Questions:
a) Who is the speaker of the above speech and what is his nationality?
b) What is the occasion of the above speech: ( )
i) a birthday party ii) an election campaign
iii) a movement for a right cause iv) a government function
c) What sort of discrimination did the speaker fight against?
d) What good does he expect regarding the children of slaves and masters?
e) What is the contextual meaning of the frequently used word “dream” ?
f) How should a nation be judged?
g) What are the two places mentioned by the speaker in his speech?
h) Pick the word from the passage that would mean: “that lives for ever without death”

ASSESSMENT
C23-C-408: English Communication Skills Lab
The assessment for C23-Common 408 : ‘English Communication Skills’ is on par with all other
practical subjects comprising 40 marks for Internal assessment and 60 marks for External
examination attaining the final total of 100 Marks.
The Internal Assessment can be conducted in the form of Assignments in all the 8 Units. One or Two
assignments ( oral / written) can be conducted in each Unit, awarding 10 marks for each assignment
and the total marks can be averaged to 40 marks as suggested below.
These assignments should focus mostly on LISTENING and SPEAKING skills rather than writing.
The questions for assignments can be customized according to the topic.
Listening skills can be tested by playing different Audio/ Video clips ( appropriate in content and
language, preferably without subtitles). Follow pre-while-post stages of listening activity and
students should answer general, specific, inferential, vocabulary questions etc.
Self -Introduction, JAM, Interview Skills, making presentation on a place/a thing/ a person/ an
event / a picture etc.. are some of the topics for individual speaking skills.
GD should be made as group activity and the teacher assesses various skills of the students as
given in the workbook.
The performance of the students in various Internal assessment activities should be documented as
guided in the following Assessment sheet (one for each student) to award Internal marks.

ASSESSMENT
C23-Common-508: Life Skills ( Lab Practice )
The assessment for C23-Common 508 is on par with all other practical subjects
comprising 40 marks for Internal Assessment and 60 marks for External examination
attaining the final total of 100 Marks.
The Internal Assessment can be conducted in the form of Assignments in all the 11
Units together, taking the average for 40 marks as suggested below.
The Assessment sheet provided after each lesson in the Life Skills workbook should
be considered as assignment (A) for 10 marks. In addition to that, another assignment
(B) can be conducted for 10 marks in each Unit, awarding total average of 10 marks
for each Lesson. Finally, the cumulative total should be averaged to 40 marks as
Internal marks.
The questions for Assignment can be customized according to the topic and need. We
can also consider the questions of assignments given after each lesson in the
workbook.
The assignment questions can also be given based on case studies, personal
experiences, observations, making inferences/ analysis/ forming opinions, solving
puzzles, questions on logical thinking, reasoning, evaluating and writing reviews, etc.
