Passage 3
The real ornament of woman is her character, her purity. Metal and stones can never be real ornaments.The names of women like Sita and Damayanti have become sacred to us for their unsullied virtue, never for
their jewellery, if they wore any. My asking from you, your jewellery has also a wider significance. Several sisters have told me that they feel all the better for getting rid of their jewels. I have called this an act of merit in more ways than one. No man or woman is entitled to the possession of wealth, unless he or she has given a fair share of it to the poor and the helpless. It is a social and religious obligation and has been called a sacrifice by the Bhagavad Gita. He who does not offer this sacrifice has been called a thief. The Gita has
enumerated many forms of sacrifice, but what greater
sacrifice can there be than to serve the poor and the needy? For us, today, there can be no sacrifice higher than to forget the distinctions of high and low and to realize the equality of all men. I also wish to bring home
to the women of India that real ornamentation lies not in loading the body with metal and stone, but in purifying the heart and developing the beauty of soul.

(a) What is the real ornament of 'woman'?
(b) What thing has been called a sacrifice by the Bhagavad Gita?
(c) What is considered to be a greater sacrifice?
(d) Where does the real ornamentation lie?
(e) (i) Which word, in the passage, means 'spotless'?
(ii) Which word, in the passage, is the opposite of 'insignificance'?
(iii) What does the phrase 'getting rid of' mean in the passage?

Translation 3
आशा के बिना मानव जीवन असम्भव है। यदि आशा न होती तो मनुष्य का जीवन बड़ा बोझिल और दुखमय हो जाता। विद्यार्थी साल भर कड़ा परिश्रम करते हैं केवल इसी आशा पर कि वे सफलता का मुख देखेंगे। एक किसान घोर उष्णता और शीत का तनिक भी ध्यान नहीं करता। इसी प्रकार व्यापारी लोग व्यापार में धन लगाते हैं। केवल इसी आशा का आश्रय लेकर ताकि उनका व्यापार उनके लिए लाभकारी सिद्ध हो। तभी तो बुद्धिमान तथा महापुरूषों ने आशा को मानव रूपी जहाज का सम्बल कहा है।

Human life is impossible without hope. If hope would not be here, human life would become sorrowful and hefty. Students do hard work whole year having hope that they will see the face of success. A farmer never heed about the frigid cold. In the same way merchants invest money only having the hope that they would get profit from this. Therefore wise and great men called that hope is the supplement of human like ship.

💐💐Central Idea of the Poem – Keeping Quiet💐💐

The poem ‘Keeping Quiet’ is composed by Pablo Neruda
In this poem, the poet suggests that he will count to twelve and everybody will keep still. He suggests that on the Earth, at our dwelling place, we should be silent and motionless for a few moments. He asks all the human beings to stop all worldly activities for some time and spend a few moments in quiet introspection. It will help us to understand ourselves. We are always in hurry. He says that stillness and silence will help man in creating a feeling of mutual understanding among human beings. That’s why the poet Pablo Neruda has discussed the need of maintaining peace and silence in the poem ‘Keeping Quiet’.

🍂Why did the peddler consider the world as a rattrap?
Ans-
The peddler thinks of the world as a mousetrap because he has the notion that the whole world has no other purpose except to bait people.

Passage 3
Life is not a bed of roses but a bed of thorns. It is full of dangers and difficulties. They have to be overcome, if we are to succeed in life. In the race of life, we should not be afraid of the risk which is but natural.
Success in any work in life goes to those persons who welcome risk. Science would not have made such wonderful achievements if our scientists had not risked their lives and comforts. The more difficult a work is, the harder should be our efforts to perform it. Life is not a smooth sailing. Petty difficulties frighten a weaker heart who is not prepared to take a risk. But brave hearts
achieve fame and honour because they enjoy taking
risks. In short, risk brings success and work miracles.
(a) How is man's life?
(b) What should we do succeed in life?
(c) Who are frightened by petty difficulties?
(d) What do brave hearts achieve?
(e) (i) Which word in the passage is the opposite

(ii) Which word in the passage means 'fear'?
(iii) Write the adjective form of 'miracle'.

SubjectIncrease in prices of essential commodities.
Respected Sir,
Through the columns of your esteemed newspaper. I would like to draw the attention of the
Concerned authorities towards the rising prices of essential
commodities. The problem of rising prices has become very common. The prices of essential commodities such as pulses,cereals, oils, spices, sugar, green vegetables and fruits have sharply in past few years. It has become very difficult for the people to make both ends meet. The middle class salaried people cannot manage their household budgets within their meagre salaries. The poor sections of the society and wage earners are the worst affected. The main reason behind the price hike are increasing black marketing and hoarding of such essential commodities  and corruption in Civil supplies department.
  It is high time that government necessary steps to control the rising prices. The government needs to take strict action against the hoarding and black marketing.
Thanking you!     yours sincerely
