35. A) Read the following passages carefully and frame ‘WH’ questions for the underlined parts.
1) An old tiger ran through the rain looking for shelter. He was wet and cold his cave was far
away. While hurrying to his shelter he saw an old hut. With a sigh of relief the tiger crawled under
the thatched roof and lay down by the door. except for the sound of the rain all was quiet. Before
he could nod off, however, he heard something heavy being dragged inside the hut. This was
followed by the voice of a woman.
2) But one day while scrubbing the floor, the housewife suddenly asked herself, “What is my
54
name?” The query shook her up. Leaving the mopping cloth and the muggu basket there itself, she
stood near the window scratching her head, lost in thoughts. “What is my name... what is my
name?’ The house across the road carried a name-board, Mrs. M.Suhasini, M.A., Ph.D., Princi-
pal, “X’College. Yes, she too had a name as her neighbour did ... ‘How could I forget like that? in
my scrubbing zeal I have forgotten my name .... what shall I do now?’ The housewife was per-
turbed. Her mind became totally restless. Somehow she finished her daubing for the day.
3) Mr. Sunday Nana stopped, frowning , a troubled look on his face, “In the last five years, 13
people have died in this village, my own elder brother one of them. They have been in pain, terrible
pain, We have never seen deaths like that before. Lots of our children are sick. We have asked the
Government to take the drums away, but they did nothing. We have written to Italy, but they do
nothing. The Chief says we should move our houses to another place. But we have no money to
buy land. We have no choice. We have to stay here. “And they”... pointing to the mountain of
deathin the clearing . “are our neighbours.”
4) It is true that a spiritual observers are likely to be bewildered by the astonishing variety of
Indian life.. They fail to discover the one in many, the individual in the aggregate; the simple in the
composit. With them the whole is lost in the parts. What is needed is the superior interpretation,
synthesis of the power of the mind that can give rise to a vision of the whole.
5) Savitri was awarded the title ‘Manathi’ (the Supreme artiste). She also received the Presiden-
tial award for her performance in ‘Chivaraku Migiledi’, the magnum opus of Savitri. She was the
