ENGLISH CORE (CODE NO. 301) CLASS – XII 2020-21 Time allowed: 3 hours MaximumMarks: 80 SECTION A READING SKILLS I. Read the following passage carefully: 10 1 It is an eraof automation. Nearly every year several inventions and innovations swell up the markets making the consumers vow on knowing about each one. One of the commonest factors behind those inventions is our consistent quest for making things easier for ourselves to work upon. 2 One of the greatest advances in modern technology has been the invention of computers. Now there is hardly any sphere of human life where computers have not been pressed into service of man. 3 Computers are capable of doing extremely complicated work in all branches of learning. These machines can be put to varied uses. Because they work accurately and at high speeds, they save research workers’ years of hard work. This whole process by which machines can be used to work for us has been called ‘automation’.In the future, automation may enable human beings far more leisure than they dotoday. The coming of automation is bound to have important social consequences. 4 Some years ago an expert on automation, Sir Leon Bagrit, pointed out that it was a mistake to believe that these machines could ‘think’. There is no possibility that human beings will be ‘controlled by machines.’ Though computers are capable of learning from their mistakes and improving on their 1

performance, they need detailed instructions from human beings to be able to operate. Theycan neverlead independent lives by making decisions of their own. 5 Sir Leon said that in the future, computers would be developed which would be small enough tocarry in the pocket. Computers could be plugged into a national network and be used like radios. It would also be possible to make tiny translating machines. This will enable people who do not share a common language, to talk to one another without any difficulty. 6 Computers are used in ordinary public hospitals. By providing a machine with a patient's systems, a doctor is to diagnose the nature of his illness. Bookkeepers and accountants, too, can be relieved of dull clerical work, for the tedious task of compiling and checking lists of figures can be done entirely by machines. 7 Computers are so much in every sphere of life that they are speedily becoming our masters and we like dumbs are allowing them to easily play upon our minds. Things have changed so fast after theintroduction of computers that hardly we sit to think upon concepts, believing computers to be there for that task too. Getting everything on a single click has made our other fingers inactive. 8 The advantage of computers is as vivid as its aftermath. It is an inevitable fact the computers have enhanced technology but jammed common minds. On the basis of your reading of the above passage, answer any ten out of the following questions by choosing the best answers from the given options: (110 = 10) (a) Inventions are promoted due to ______. (i) our interest in technology (ii) our interest in consumerism 2

Why? (i) Computers can take decisions on their own. (ii) Computers learn from their mistakes. (iii) Computers are able to improve their performance. (iv) Computers need detailed instructions from human beings. (f) Sir Leon Bragit had predicted that ____.

II. Read the following passage carefully: 10 1 No treatment on the market today has been proved to slow human aging. But one intervention, consumption of a low-calorie yet nutritionally balanced diet, works incredibly well in a broad range of animals, increasing longevity and prolonging good health. Those findings suggest that caloric restriction could delay aging and increase longevity in humans, too. But what if someone could create a pill that mimicked the physiological effects of eating less without actually forcing people to eat less, a 'caloricrestriction mimetic'? 2 The best-studied candidate for a caloric-restriction mimetic, 2DG (2-deoxy-D- glucose), works by interfering with the way cells process glucose. It has proved toxic at some doses in animals and so cannot be used in humans. But it has demonstrated that chemicals can replicate the effects of caloric restriction; the trick is finding the right one. 3 Cells use the glucose from food to generate ATP (adenosine triphosphate), the molecule that powers many activities in the body. By limiting food intake, caloric restriction minimizes the amount of glucose entering cells and decreases ATP generation. When 2DG is administered to animals that eat normally, glucose reaches cells in abundance but the drug prevents most of it from being processed and thus reduces ATP synthesis. Researchers have proposed several explanations for why interruption of glucose processing and ATP production might retard aging. One possibility relates to the ATP-making machinery’s emission of free radicals, which are thought to contribute to aging and to such age-related diseases as cancer by damaging cells. Reduced operation of the machinery should limit their production and thereby constrain the damage. Another hypothesis suggests that decreased processing of glucose could indicate to cells that food is scarce (even if it isn’t) and induce them to 5

shift into an anti-aging mode that emphasizes preservation of the organism over such ‘luxuries’ as growth and reproduction. (Adapted from ‘The Serious Search for an Anti-Aging Pill’. Copyright © 2006 Scientific American, a division of Nature America, Inc. All rights reserved.) On the basis of your reading of the above passage, answer any ten out of the following questions by choosing the best answers from the given options: (110 = 10) (a) Consumption of a low-calorie and balanced diet worked well in a broad range of animals’ _______. (i) fleshy body growth (ii) long life and good health (iii) nutritionally balanced diet (iv) food habits (b) What can suspend aging and increase longevity in humans? (i) caloric restriction (ii) unbalanced diet (iii) high nutritious food (iv) physiological effects (c) Name the phenomena of mimicking the physiological effects of eating less without actually forcing people to eat less. (i) Balanced diet (ii) Longevity in humans (iii) pill (iv) caloric-restriction mimetic (d) Which is considered as the best-studied candidate for a caloric- restriction mimetic? (i) Deoxy -D- Glucose 6

(ii) ATP (iii) 2DG (iv) Glucose (e) Why 2DG cannot be used in humans? (i) It was created only for animals (ii) It has proved toxic in animals (iii) It has proved toxic in humans (iv) It was created for non-humans (f) ATP is generated from glucose by ____. (i) Food (ii) Adenosine (iii) Cells (iv) molecule (g) _____ is reduced when 2DG is administered to animals that eat normally. (i) Glucose (ii) ATP synthesis (iii) Drug (iv) Cell (h) The second hypothesis proposes that lessened processing of glucose could direct cells that food is scarce and give indication to change into _______ to preserve the organism fromfurther growth.
