Question 3

Time: 00:00:00
1). Since independence, every political party has played communal card whenever election time draws near. 2). In fact, the caste and communal cards have been fine-tuned to an art form in the political games that are played in this country. 3). This was seen when the Youth Congress(I) goons were given a free hand to terrorise Sikhs all over the country after Indira Gandhi's assassination. 4). When each party carefully selects political candidates on the basis of religion or caste, it is encouraging and continuing the divide-and-rule tactics of its colonial masters. 5). And no political party can absolve itself on this count; worse, political parties take on board hoodlums and gangsters who use their clout in political circles to settle scores and extract money.

1. Picture a termite colony, occupying a tall mud hump on an African
plain.

queen, walled in well below ground level, lays eggs not only in
large enough numbers, but also in the varying proportions required.

Question 8

Time: 00:00:00

Time: 00:00:00

Time: 00:00:00
A. A few months ago I went to Princeton University to see what the young people who are going to be running our country in a few decades are like. B. I would go to sleep in my hotel room around midnight each night, and when I awoke, my mailbox would be full of replies—sent at 1:15 a.m., 2:59 a.m., 3:23 a.m. C. One senior told me that she went to bed around two and woke up each morning at seven; she could afford that much rest because she had learned to supplement her full day of work by studying in her sleep. D. Faculty members gave me the names of a few dozen articulate students, and I sent them e-mails, inviting them out to lunch or dinner in small groups. E. As she was falling asleep she would recite a math problem or a paper topic to herself; she would then sometimes dream about it, and when she woke up, the problem might be solved.
