1. Read the passage given below : 12

Everybody wants to succeed in life. For some, success means achieving whatever they desire or dream. For many it is the name, fame and social position. Whatever be the meaning of success, it is success which makes a man popular.  All great men have been successful. They are remembered for their great  achievements. But it is certain that success comes to those who are sincere,hardworking, loyal and committed to their goals.  Success has been man’s greatest motivation. It is very important for all. Success has a great effect on life. It brings pleasure and pride. It gives a sense of fulfilment. It means all-around development. Everybody hopes to be successful in life. But success smiles on those who have a proper approach, planning, vision and stamina. A proper and timely application of all these things is bound to bear fruit. One cannot be successful without cultivating these certain basic things in life. It is very difficult to set out on a journey without knowing one’s goals and purposes. Clarity of the objective is a must to succeed in life. A focused approach with proper planning is certain to bring success. Indecision and insincerity are big obstacles on the path to success.  One should have the capability, capacity and resources to turn one’s dreams into reality. Mere desire cannot bring you success. The desire should be weighed against
factors like capability and resources. This is the basic requirement of success. The next important thing is the eagerness, seriousness and the urge to be successful. It is the driving force which decides the success. It is the first step on the ladder of success.  
One needs to pursue one’s goals with all one’s sincerity and passion. One should always be in high spirit. Lack of such spirit leads to an inferiority complex which is a big obstruction on the path to success. Time is also a deciding factor. Only the punctual and committed have succeeded in life. Lives of great men are examples of this. They had all these qualities in plenty which helped them rise to the peak of success.
 Hard labour is one of the basic requirements of success. There is no substitute for hard labour. It alone can take one to the peak of success. Every success has a ratio of five percent inspiration and ninety-five percent perspiration. It is the patience, persistence and perseverance which play a decisive role in achieving success. Failures are the pillars of success as they are our stepping-stones and we must get up and start again
and be motivated.

1.1. On the basis of your reading of the passage, answer any four of the following  questions in 30-40 words each : 2 × 4 = 8

(a) To whom does success come certainly ?
(b) What are the basic things in life we need to achieve success ?
(c) What did great men have in plenty to rise to the peak of success ? Give any two examples.
(d) What is the one basic requirement of success ?
(e) Explain : “Failures are pillars of success.”

1.2 On the basis of your reading of the passage, fill in any two of the following blanks with appropriate words/phrase : 1 × 2 = 2

Subject – Hindi (Elective)


Subject :- हिन्दी (ऐच्छिक)

Class : XII

Year : 2018

खण्ड (क)

१. निम्नलिखित गद्यांश को ध्यान से पढ़िए और पूछे गए प्रश्नों के उत्तर संक्षेप में (२०-३० शब्दों में) लिखिए : १५

'दाँत'  इस दो अक्षर के शब्द तथा इन थोड़ी-सी छोटी-छोटी हडि्‌डयों में भी उस चतुर कारीगर ने वह कौशल दिखलाया है कि किसके मुँह में दाँत हैं जो पूरा वर्णन कर सके । मुख की सारी शोभा और सभी भोज्य पदार्थों का स्वाद इन्हीं पर निर्भर है । कवियों ने अलक,भ्रू तथा बरौनी आदि की छवि लिखने में बहुत रीति से बाल की खाल निकाली है पर सच पूछिए तो इन्हीं की शोभा से सबकी शोभा है । जब दाँतों के बिना पोपला-सा मुँह निकल आता है और चिबुक एवं नासिका एक में मिल जाती हैं, उस समय सारी सुधराई मिट्‌टी में मिल जाती है । कवियों ने इनकी उपमा हीरा, मोती, माणिक से दी है, यह बहुत ठीक है ।

यह वह अंग है जिसमें पाकशास्त्र के छहों रस एवं काव्यशास्त्र के नवों रस का आधार है । खाने का मज़ा इन्हीं से है । इस बात का अनुभव यदि आपको न हो तो किसी वृद्ध से  पूछ देखिए । केवल सतुआ चाटने के और रोटी को दूध में तथा दाल में भिगोकर गले के नीचे
उतारने के सिवाय दुनिया भर की चीज़ों के लिए वह तरस कर ही रह जाता होगा ।

सच है दाँत बिना जब किसी काम के न रहें तब पूछे कौन ? शंकराचार्य का यह पद महामंत्र है "अंगं गलितं पलितं मुडं दशनविहीनं जातं तुंडम्‌" आदि । एक कहावत भी है 

"दाँत खियाने, खुर घिसे, पीठ बोझ नहिं लेइ,
ऐसे बूढ़े बैल को कौन बाँध भुस देइ ।"

आपके दाँत हाथी के दाँत तो हैं नहीं कि मरने पर भी किसी के काम आएँगे । आपके दाँत तो यह शिक्षा देते हैं कि जब तक हम अपने स्थान, अपनी जाति (दंतावली) और अपने काम में दृढ़ हैं, तभी तक हमारी प्रतिष्ठा है । यहाँ तक कि बड़े-बड़े कवि हमारी प्रशंसा करते
हैं । पर मुख से बाहर होते ही एक अपावन, घृणित और फेंकने वाली हड्‌डी हो जाते हैं । गाल और होंठ दाँतों का परदा हैं । जिसके परदा न  रहा अर्थात्‌ स्वजातित्व की ग़ैरतदारी न रही, उनकी निर्लज्ज ज़िंदगी व्यर्थ है । ऐसा ही हम उन स्वार्थ के अंधों के हक में मानते हैं जो रहे
हमारे साथ, बने हमारे साथ ही, पर सदा हमारे देश-जाति के अहित ही में  तत्पर रहते हैं ।  उनके होने का हमें कौन सुख ? दुखती दाढ़ की पीड़ा से मुक्ति उसके उखड़वाने में ही है । हम तो उन्हीं की जै-जै कार करेंगे जो अपने देशवासियों से दाँत काटी रोटी का बर्ताव रखत है ।

(क) कैसे कह सकते हैं कि दाँतों का निर्माण चतुर कारीगर ने किया है और इन्हीं की शोभा से सारी शोभा है ? २
(ख) कवियों ने दाँतों की उपमा किन वस्तुओं से दी है ? उपमा का कारण भी स्पष्ट कीजिए ? २

(ग) भोजन के आनंद में दाँतों का क्या योगदान है ? इसे समझने के लिए किसी वृद्ध के पास जाना क्यों ज़रूरी बताया है ? २
(घ) दाँतों की प्रतिष्ठा कब तक है ? मुख से बाहर होते ही उनके साथ भिन्न व्यवहार क्या  है ? 2

(ङ) शंकराचार्य के कथन और एक अन्य कहावत के द्वारा लेखक क्या समझाना चाहता है ? २
(च) गाल और होंठ दाँतों का परदा कैसे हैं ? उस परदे से क्या शिक्षा मिलने की बात कही गई है ? २

(छ) दाँतों की चर्चा में देश का अहित करने वालों का उल्लेख क्यों किया गया है ? लेखक के अनुसार उनसे कैसा व्यवहार किया जाना चाहिए ? २
(ज) इस गद्यांश का एक उपयुक्त शीर्षक सुझाइए । (अधिकतम ५ शब्द) १

२. निम्नलिखित काव्यांश को पढ़िए और पूछे गए प्रश्नों के उत्तर (प्रत्येक लगभग २० शब्दों में) दीजिए : १x५=५

तन समर्पित, मन समर्पित और यह जीवन समर्पित
चाहता हूँ देश की धरती, तुझे कुछ और भी दूँ ।
माँ, तुम्हारा ॠण बहुत है, मैं अकिंचन,
किंतु इतना कर रहा फिर भी निवेदन ।

थाल में लाऊँ सजाकर भाल जब भी
कर दया स्वीकार लेना वह समर्पण ।
मान अर्पित, प्राण अर्पित
रक्त का कण-कण समर्पित
चाहता हूँ देश की धरती, तुझे कुछ और भी दूँ ।

कर रहा आराधना मैं आज तेरी,
एक विनती तो करो स्वीकार मेरी ।
भाल पर मल दो चरण की धूल थोडी
शीष पर आशीष की छाया घनेरी
स्वप्न अर्पित, प्रश्न अर्पित
आयु का क्षण-क्षण समर्पित
चाहता हूँ देश की धरती, तुझे कुछ और भी दूँ ।
तो‹डता हूँ मोह का बंधन क्षमा दो
गाँव मेरे, द्वार, घर, आँगन क्षमा दो
देश का जयगान अधरों पर सजा हो
देश का ध्वज हाथ में केवल थमा हो
सुमन अर्पित, चमन अर्पित
नी‹ड का तृण-तृण समर्पित
चाहता हूँ देश की धरती, तुझे कुछ और भी दूँ ।

(क) तन-मन अर्पित करने पर भी कुछ और देने की चाह क्यों है ?
(ख) मातृभूमि का ॠण चुकाने के लिए कवि अपनी किस भेंट को स्वीकार लेने का आग्रह कर रहा है ?
(ग) तन और मन का समर्पण कैसे हो सकता है ?
(घ) कविता में किस-किस से और क्यों क्षमा माँगी गई है ?
(ङ) कविता के संदर्भ में ‘चमनङ्क और ‘नी‹डङ्क का प्रतीकार्थ स्पष्ट कीजिए ।

अथवा
राष्ट्रीय स्वच्छता-अभियान के लाभों और उसकी सीमाओं की समीक्षा करते हुए किसी प्रतिष्ठित समाचार-पत्र के संपादक को लगभग १५० शब्दों में पत्र लिखिए

५. निम्नलिखित प्रश्नों के उत्तर संक्षेप में, प्रत्येक २० ह्न ३० शब्दों में दीजिए : १x ५=५

(क) उलटा पिरामिड शैली से क्या तात्पर्य है ?

1. Read the passage given below : 8
(1) Tourists to Jammu and Kashmir have another attraction – a floating post office on the Dal Lake in Srinagar, the first in the country. ‘Floating Post Office, Dal Lake’ – claimed to be the only one such post office in the world – is built on an intricately carved maroon houseboat, fastened on the western edge of the Dal Lake.
(2) This post office lets you avail of all the regular postal services available in the country while being afloat. The seal used on everything posted from Floating Post Office is unique – along with the date and address, it bears the design of a boatman rowing a shikara on the Dal Lake. The special feature of this post office is that letters posted from here carry a special design which has the picturesque scenery of Dal Lake and Srinagar city. These pictures reach wherever these letters are posted to and hence promote Kashmir as a tourist destination across the world.
(3) This is actually a heritage post office that has existed since British times. It was called Nehru Park Post Office before 2011. But then the chief postmaster John Samuel renamed it as ‘Floating Post Office’.
(4) The post office’s houseboat has two small rooms – one serves as the office and the other a small museum that traces the philatelic history of the state postal department. It has a shop that sells postage stamps and other products.
(5) But for the locals, Floating Post office is more than an object of fascination. Rs.1-2 crore is deposited per month in Floating Post Office by communities living in and around the Dal Lake. The lake has several islets that are home to more than 50,000 people.
(6) The greatest fear is the recurrence of 2014 like floods in which the houseboat had gone for a toss uncontrollably pushed by the flood. Rescue teams had to anchor it using special mechanism in a nearby highland. Then it was brought back on the Dal after the water receded. The biggest boon is that at no time of the year do you need a fan in this post-office !
1.1 Attempt any eight of the following questions on the basis of the passage you have read : 1x8 = 8
(i) What is the location of the Floating Post Office in Srinagar ?

CBSE Class-10 Exam 2017 :  English Language & Literature (Set -2)

Read the passage given below : 8

(1) It is an indisputable fact that the world has gone too far with the innovation of new technologies such as mobile phones, the internet and so on, due to which people are able to tour the cosmos virtually sitting at one place using their smart devices or other technological gadgets. Though mobile internet access is oftentimes hurried and short, it can still provide common internet features like alerts, weather data, emails, search engines, instant messages, and game and music downloading. 
(2) Due to the easy access of smart phones, communication has been very effective and instant. People are able to convey their message all around the globe to their loved ones without spending hefty sums of money. Adults are always fond of such gadgets and they always welcome and adopt such new technology readily. Further, young people have been able to broaden their minds and improve their skills by doing research on the Internet. For instance, they use smart phones to look up any new word they come across. As we know that most of the universities have online teaching provision and smart phones assist the students to complete their assignments on time.
(3) The mobile phone has been a lifesaver for a lot of people in case of an emergency. Likewise, use of smart phones can be of vital importance in preventing crimes in the society by providing information to the security forces in time. 
(4) Nonetheless, for the young the use of mobile phone can be like an addiction and they can misuse it. Young people are also prone to getting involved in undesirable activities on the Internet. This might have adverse effect on their academic performance. Therefore, young people should always be monitored and made aware of its bad outcomes.
(5) Also a major contributor to its popularity is the availability of prepaid or pay as you go services from a phone shop or an online store. This allows subscribers to load text or airtime credits to their handsets by the use of their credit cards, debit cards or by buying a prepaid card from the network they subscribe to. This plan also doesn’t commit a particular customer to a contract. If prepaid card is not that appealing to you, then you can opt to subscribe using the pay by month plan. 
1.1 On the basis of your reading of the passage, answer any four of the following questions in 30-40 words each : 2x4 = 8
(i) How are smart phones helpful in communication ?
(ii) What are the benefits of mobile phones for the young generation ?
(iii) How can mobile phones be considered ‘lifesavers’ ?
(iv) Mention any two demerits of mobile phones.
(v) How is a prepaid card useful to mobile phone users ?

१. निम्नलिखित गद्यांश को पढ़कर पूछे गए प्रश्नों के उत्तर प्रत्येक २०-३० शब्दों में लिखिए : १५
हिन्दी के बारे में या उसके विरोध के बारे में जब भी कोई हलचल होती है, तो राजनीति का मुखौटा ओढ़े रहने वाले भाषा व्यवसायी बेनकाब होने लगते हैं । उनकी बेचैनी समझ में नहीं आती ।संविधान में स्पष्ट प्रावधानों के बाद भी यह अविश्वास का माहौल बनता क्यों
है ? यहाँ हम केवल एक ही प्रावधान को याद करें ।संविधान के अनुच्छेद ३५१ में हिन्दी भाषा के विकास के लिए निर्देश देते हुए स्पष्ट कहा गया है : संघ का यह कर्तव्य होगा कि वह हिन्दी भाषा का प्रसार बढ़ाए, उसका विकास करे, जिससे वह भारत की सामाजिक संस्कृति के सभी तत्त्वों की अभिव्यक्ति का माध्यम बन सके और उसकी प्रकृति में हस्तक्षेप किए बिना हिन्दुस्तानी और आठवीं अनुसूची में विनिर्दिष्ट भारत की अन्य भाषाओं में प्रयुक्त रूप, शैली और पदों को आत्मसात्‌ करते हुए और जहाँ आवश्यक या वांछनीय हो वहाँ उसके
शब्द-भंडार के लिए मुख्यत: संस्कृत से और गौणत: अन्य भाषाओं से शब्द ग्रहण करते हुए उसकी समृद्धि सुनिश्चित करे ।

यही सब देखकर हिन्दी के विषय में अक्सर यह लगने लगता है जैसे संविधान के संकल्पों का निष्कर्ष कहीं खो गया है और हम निर्माताओं के आशय से कहीं दूर भटक गए हैं । सहज ही मन में ये प्रश्न उठते हैं कि हमने क्या किया ? क्यों नहीं हमारे कार्यक्रम प्रभावी हुए ? क्यों और कैसे अंग्रे ज़ी भाषा की मानसिकता हम पर और हमारी युवा एवं किशोर पीढ़ी पर इतनी हावी हो चुकी है कि इसी मिट्टी से जन्मी हमारी अपनी भाषाओं की अस्मिता और भविष्य संकट में प्रतीत होता है । शिक्षा में, व्यापार और व्यवहार में, संसदीय, शासकीय एवं न्यायिक प्रक्रियाओं में हिन्दी और प्रादेशिक भाषाओं को वर्चस्व क्यों नहीं मिल पा रहा ?  

(क) भाषा व्यवसायी से क्या अभिप्राय है ? उनकी पोल कब खुलने लगती है ? २
(ख) संविधान में 'संघ' से आप क्या समझते हैं ? हिन्दी भाषा को लेकर संघ का क्या कर्तव्य बताया गया है ? २

(ग) हिन्दी भाषा के विकास की आवश्यकता क्यों है ? २
(घ) भारत की अन्य भाषाओं से लेखक का क्या तात्पर्य है ? यहाँ उनका उल्लेख क्यों हुआ है ? २
(ङ) 'अंग्रे ज़ी भाषा की मानसिकता से क्या तात्पर्य है ? उस उसका क्या परिणाम हो रहा है ? २

(च) यह कैसे कह सकते हैं कि हमारी अपनी भाषा का भविष्य संकट में है ? २

२. निम्नलिखित काव्यांश को पढ़कर पूछे गए प्रश्नों के उत्तर प्रत्येक २०-३० शब्दों में लिखिए : १x५=५

सहता प्रहार कोई विवश, कदर्य जीव
जिसकी नसों में नहीं पौरुष की धार है
करुणा, क्षमा हैं वीर जाति के कलंक घोर
क्षमता क्षमा की शूरवीरों का शृंगार है ।

प्रतिशोध से हैं होती शौर्य की शिखाएँ दीप्त
प्रतिशोध-हीनता नरों में महापाप है,
छो ड़ प्रीति-वैर पीते मूक अपमान वे ही
जिनमें न शेष शूरता का वह्नि-ताप है
जेता के विभूषण सहिष्णुता-क्षमा हैं किंतु
हारी हुई  जाति की सहिष्णुता अभिशाप है ।

सेना साजहीन है परस्व हरने की वृत्ति
लोभ की लड़ाई क्षात्र धर्म के विरुद्ध है
चोट खा परंतु जब सिंह उठता है जाग

उठता कराल प्रतिशोध हो प्रबुद्ध है
पुण्य खिलता है चंद्रहास की विभा में तब
पौरुष की जागृति कहाती धर्मयुद्ध है । 

(क) क्षमा कब कलंक और कब शृंगार हो जाती है ?
(ख) प्रतिशोध किसे कहते हैं ? वह कब आवश्यक होता है ?
(ग) सहिष्णुता को विभूषण और अभिशाप दोनों क्यों माना गया ?
