SECTION A : READING (Reading : 20 Marks)

1 Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow : Sangeet Natak Akademi, the national academy for performing arts, recognizes eight distinctive traditional dances as Indian classical dances, which might have origin in religious activities of distant past. Folk dances are numerous in number and style, and vary according to the local tradition of the respective state , ethnic or geographic region. Contemporary dances include refined and experimental fusions of classical, folk and Western forms. In Hindu mythology, dance is believed to have been conceived by Brahma. Brahma inspired the sage Bharata Muni to write the Natya Shastra, a treatise on performing arts, from which a codified practice of dance and drama emerged. He used pathya (words) from the Rigveda, abhinaya (gestures) from the Yajurveda, geet (music) from the Samaveda and rasa (emotions) from the Atharvaveda to form the Natyaveda (body of knowledge about dance). India offers a number of classical Indian dance forms, each of which can be traced to a different part of the country. Classical and folk dance forms also emerged from Indian traditions, epics and mythology. There are many Indian folk dances such as Bhangra, Bihu, Ghumura Dance, Sambalpuri Chhau and Garba and special dances observed in regional festivals such as Lohri and Navratri. The tradition of dance has been codified in the Natyashastra and a performance is considered accomplished if it manages to evoke a rasa (emotion) among the audience by invoking a particular bhava (gesture or facial expression). Classical dance is distinguished from folk dance because it has been regulated by the rules of the Natyashastra and all classical dances are performed only in accordance with them. Traditionally, dance as a profession or a hobby was discouraged among upper classes and higher castes in India. It was looked upon as a lowly activity and women from reputed households were prohibited from practising any dance form. Hence, in forms like Bhavai and Gotipua, men would take up the roles of female characters. Rukmini Devi Arundale revived the classical dance form Bharata Natyam and in its modern avatar, it became an acceptable subject of training for women.

2 Read the passage given below : 1. The old lady was glad to be back at the block of flats where she lived. Her shopping

had tired her and her basket had grown heavier with every step back home. In the lift her thoughts were on lunch and a good rest; but when she got out at her own floor, both were forgotten in her sudden discovery that her front door was open. A perturbed state of mind led her to trace the chronological events before stepping out to shop. She was thinking that she must reprimand the maid the next morning for such a monstrous piece of negligence, when she remembered that she had gone shopping after her maid had left and she had turned both the keys in their locks. She walked slowly into the hall and at once noticed that all the room doors were open, yet following her regular practice, she had shut them before going out. Looking into the drawing room, she saw a scene of confusion on her writing desk.

2. It was as clear as daylight, burglars had forced an entry in her absence. Her first impulse was to go round all the rooms looking for the thieves, but then she decided that at her age it might be more prudent to have someone with her. So she went to fetch the porter from the basement. By this time, her legs were beginning to tremble, so she sat down and accepted a cup of very strong tea from the porter while he telephoned the police. As soon as her composure was regained she was ready to set off with the porter’s assistance, tosearch for any intruder who might be still lurking in her flat.

3. The old lady felt marginally relieved with the physical assistance of the porter in managing to investigate the burglar's attempt to plunder with noticeable facts. Though uncertain, with an apprehensive alarm of a burglar's existence in the premises, she kept her courage and willpower intact.

2.1 On the basis of your reading of the above passage answer the following questions briefly. (2x4) (a) After deciding to rebuke the maid, what did the old lady realise ? (b) Give an example from the second paragraph which tells us that the lady

showed great presence of mind at the time of an emergency ? (c) What did the old lady see when she walked into the hall ? (d) Why did she accept a cup of tea from the porter ?
