SECTION–B
V. Read the comprehension passage carefully and answer the questions that follow. 5x1=5M
One evening, a hungry dog found a piece of meat and ran home happily, holding it tightly in
his mouth. Onhis way, he had to cross a small wooden bridge over a stream. As he looked down
into the water, he sawhis own reflection—but he thought it was another dog carrying a larger piece
of meat. Greedy and excited, he thought, ”If I can get that meat too, I‘ll have twice as much!”
Without a second thought, he snapped at the ”other dog” in the water. But the moment he opened
his mouth to bite, his own piece of meat fell into the stream and was carried away by the current.
The dog stood there helplessly, watching the water flow. He had lost everything because he could
not resist his greed. Slowly, he walked back, hungry and wiser. This small story carries a big
lesson. Often in life, people lose what they already have because they run after something that only
appears better. Greed makes us blind to what is real and valuable. Contentment, on the other hand,
brings peace. Moral: Greed often causes us to lose even what we already possess.(Source: The Dog

Intensive reading is aimed at mastering the structures and vocabulary apart from reading for

themselves better users of English than the native speakers of English in writing. Intensive reading
can also be done in the absence of the teachers. So, by spending more time on intensive reading,
one may get language skills in English. And the only practicable means of learning a foreign
language as a second language is through intensive reading. The intensive reading has some
prerequisites like; the readers should be able identify the words and sentences spoken orally and
acquire sufficient speed in reading.
In intensive reading, the pupils pay attention to almost all aspects of language. And further the
effort of learning the language is supplemented by extensive reading. Extensive readers should be
interesting stories. Magazines, newspapers and variety of story books will form the material for
extensive reader. The two main themes of extensive reading are reading for pleasure and reading for
information. Extensive readers facilitate passive vocabulary in the learners. And it also consolidates
active vocabulary. So, the teachers should regularly give some assignment and thus forcing the
students to library. Sending the students to library can be done as a means of assertive punishment

makes the learner to pronounce any word that he sees for the first time. Group discussion also can
be done on extensive reader.
