CTET Official Paper-I (Held On: 14 Dec, 2024) – English - II PYP Quiz
Comprehension: (Que No. 1 - 8)
Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow:
A couple of days later, there was a music recital in the Bharatendu Auditorium, one of the two largest auditoriums in town. One of the performers was Ustad Majeed Khan.
Lata and Malati both managed to get tickets. So did Hema, a tall, thin and high-spirited friend of theirs who lived with innumerable cousins-boys and girls-in a house not far from Nabiganj. They were all under the care of a strict elder member of the family who was referred to by everyone as Tauji. Hema's Tauji had quite a job on his hands, as he was not only responsible for the well-being and reputation of the girls of the family but also had to make sure that the boys did not get into the countless kinds of mischief that boys are prone to. He had often cursed his luck that he was the sole representative in a university town of a large and far-flung family. He had on occasions threatened to send everyone straight back home when they had caused him more trouble than he could bear. But his wife, Taiji to everyone, thought she herself had been brought up with almost no liberty or latitude, felt it was a great pity that her nieces and grandnieces should be similarly constrained. She managed to obtain for the girls what they could not obtain by a more direct approach.
This evening Hema and her cousin had thus succeeded in reserving the use of Tauji's large maroon Packard car and went around town collecting their friends for the concert. No sooner was Tauji out of sight than they had entirely forgotten his outraged parting comment. "Flowers? Flowers in your hair? Rushing off in exam time- and listening to all this pleasure - music! Everyone will think you are completely dissolute-you will never get married."

Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow:
I designed, after my first voyage, to spend the rest of my days at Baghdad, but it was not long ere grew weary of an indolent life and I put to sea a second time with merchants of known probity. We embarked on board of a good ship and set sail. One day we landed on an island covered with several sorts of fruit trees, but we could see neither man nor animal. While some diverted themselves with gathering flowers, and other fruits, I took my wine and provisions and sat down near a stream betwixt two high trees, which afforded a delightful shade. I made a good meal and afterwards fell asleep. When I woke up, the ship was no longer in view.
In this sad condition, I was ready to die with grief. When I gazed towards the sea, I could discern nothing but sky and water, but looking over the land I beheld something white, and coming down, I took what provision I had left and went towards the object which was so distant that at first could not distinguish what it was.
As I approached, I thought it to be a white dome of a prodigious height and extent. I drew near to it, and walked round it and found no door to it. I found that I had not strength nor activity to climb it on account of its exceeding smoothness. I went round the dome measuring its circumference. I meditated upon some means of gaining an entrance into it but no means of accomplishing this occurred to me.
By this time the sun was about to set, and all of a sudden the sky became as dark as if it had been covered with a thick cloud. I was much astonished at this sudden darkness but much more when I found it occasioned by a bird of a most extraordinary size that came flying towards me. I remembered that I had often heard mariners speak of a miraculous bird called the roc, and conceived that the great dome which I so much admired must be her egg. Shortly afterwards the bird alighted and sat over the egg.
