    Helmer. You can’t deny it, my dear little Nora. (Puts his arm round her waist.) It’s a sweet little spendthrift, but she uses up a deal of money. One would hardly believe how expensive such little persons are!
    Nora. It’s a shame to say that. I do really save all I can.
    Helmer (laughing). That’s very true,–all you can. But you can’t save anything!
    Nora (smiling quietly and happily). You haven’t any idea how many expenses we skylarks and squirrels have, Torvald.
    Helmer. You are an odd little soul. Very likeyour father. You always find some new way of wheedling money out of me, and, as soon as you have got it, it seems to melt in your hands. You never know where it has gone. Still, one must take you as you are. It is in the blood; for indeed it is true that you can inherit these things, Nora.
    Nora. Ah, I wish I had inherited many of papa’s qualities.
    Helmer. And I would not wish you to be anything but just what you are, my sweet little skylark. But, do you know, it strikes me that you are looking rather–what shall I say–rather uneasy today?
    Nora. Do I?
    Helmer. You do, really. Look straight at me.
    Nora (looks at him). Well?
    Helmer (wagging his finger at her). Hasn’t Miss Sweet Tooth been breaking rules in town today?
    Nora. No; what makes you think that?
    Helmer. Hasn’t she paid a visit to the confectioner’s?
    Helmer. Not been nibbling sweets?
    Nora. No, certainly not.
    Helmer. Not even taken a bite at a macaroon ortwo?
    Nora. No, Torvald, I assure you really–
    Helmer. There, there, of course I was only joking.
    Nora (going to the table on the right). I should notthink of going against your wishes.
    Helmer. No, I am sure of that; besides, yougave me your word– (Going up to her.) Keepyour little Christmas secrets to yourself, mydarling. They will all be revealed tonight whenthe Christmas Tree is lit, no doubt.
    Nora. Did you remember to invite Doctor Rank?

  • Read the passage below and then answer the questions that follow.(Solved)

    Read the passage below and then answer the questions that follow.

    Corruption has been spread like a disease all over the country as well as abroad. It has become one of the most speedily increasing social issues in the society we live in. It is generally initiated and promoted by the opportunistic leaders. They never think about the nation’s benefits and do lots of damage to the nation through their corruption even for their small advantage. They sell their country properties in the wrong hands and spread wrong beliefs about our country in the people’s mind living in other countries.
    They are spoiling the old traditions and cultures of our country for their personal benefits. Now-a-days people who are working in right direction using right principles considered as foolish in the modern society and the people who are working wrong and making wrong promises are good for the society. However, in turn it is true that corrupted people cheating the simple, ordinary and innocent people. They are ruling the mind of innocent people.
    Corruption increases in this country day by day because there is a strong connection between the officials, politicians and criminals who are making this country weak and so weak. Kenya got independence in 1963 and it was slowly becoming strong and developing but in the mid-way the disease of corruption started and stop our country to grow ahead. In Kenya, there has been a trend of give and take means give some money in order to get your work done whether in the government offices or private sectors offices. And now the condition is getting worse and worse, as earlier, the money was paid for getting wrong works done or only work to be done, but currently money is paid for getting works done in right ways and at right time. Even after paying complete money according to the demand, there is no full chance of getting things done at time and in right way.
    Corruption is everywhere in every department whether it hospitals, education, job, government offices, nothing is left of corruption. Everything has become a business and the source of earning money in wrong way. Educational institutions are also involved in the corruption and they give seat to those students only who have paid for, whether they are good students with good marks or not. Very weak students are given admission in the top colleges and universities only on the basis of money paid for wrong admission and the topper student with good marks and lack of money gets back in the life or take admission in any simple college.
    Now-a-days, private sectors companies are so good in comparison to the governmental jobs. Private companies are giving job on the basis of candidate’s skills, ability, technical knowledge, good percentage of marks and all the educational records. However, it has become tough to get job in the government offices as they need lots of bribe to give any type of job (high level or low level) like teaching, clerk, nurse, doctor, sweeper, etc. And the amount of bribe increases in the market as the level of job increase.

    (a) How is corruption promoted by the opportunistic leaders according to the passage?

    (b) Make notes on considerations for giving a job in a private sector.

    (c) Why does the writer of the passage say that there is nothing left of corruption?

  • Read the excerpt below and then answer questions that follow.(Solved)

    Read the excerpt below and then answer questions that follow.

    After a hurriedly prepared dinner, the girls retired to their bedroom to arrange and tidy it up. Cartons of their clothes, bedding, books and other personal effects were still piled up on their unmade bed. Curtains were yet to be hung as were their pictures and decorations.
    Taiyo removed her cardigan and immediately swung into action. She loosened the ropes that tied cartons, emptied their contents onto the floor and sorted them. After some time, the large room that held their big bed was in shambles. Shoes lay strewn all over, books were stacked in heaps on the floor and clothes and bedding were scattered on the bed. Exhausted, she straightened up and stood, hands on her hips, eyeing in growing exasperation her sister who sat on a chair at one corner of the room reading a book.
    "Surely, Resian," she complained to her sharply. "Is this the time to read a book with all this mess around
    us?"
    "Do your bit now and I will do mine tomorrow," Resian replied with a nonchalant carelessness. "I insist
    that you get up right now and get to work" Taiyo raised her voice. "We need to arrange this room before we get to bed." Resian grunted. She reluctantly laid the book down and went to work.
    They reviewed the events of the last two days as they tried to bring order to the room.
    'There is such a contrast between Nakuru and this place," said Taiyo quietly. "It is so quiet and tranquil
    here.'
    'I don't know, but I feel an oppressive silence,' Resian said defiantly. 'A little noise is not all that 'Don't befuddle me with your weird kind of reasoning," said Taiyo getting impatient. "Do you prefer the Nakuru bus stage to this serene atmosphere?'
    'No, not at all.' Resian said seriously. 'I would rather live in the most noisy place on earth, than live anywhere near a vagabond who would accost me in the most quiet and serene atmosphere with the intention of mutilating my sexuality!'
    'Of course I also don't care whether I am counted among intoiye nemengalana,' an embarrassed Taiyo said
    as she began to fold clothes, not looking at her sister.
    'What I know is that my body belongs to me. I belong to myself." She picked a pillow, tossed it onto the bed, plumbed it up and looking around said fiercely, 'only when I am dead would anybody mutilate my body.'
    'Don't you think they can force us to undergo the ritual?" Resian asked fearfully. 'What do you think will
    happen to us if Papaai is forced by his clansmen to embrace the archaic culture that would require us to get
    the cut?
    "Resian-e-yeiyo, I hope nothing of that sort happens, for if it does ... ' she shrugged her shoulders
    and pulled an expressive face. "I don't know what would happen to us.'
    'That's why it's imperative that you persuade Papaai to allow us go back to Nakuru and enroll at the
    university,' said Resian vehemently as she threw herself onto the bed, her arms behind her head. 'We must beat them to it. We must convince him to let us go before they prevail upon him to embrace outdated and archaic traditions.'

    (a) '…..the girls retired to their bedroom to arrange and tidy it up.' Highlight the events that occur before this

    (b) 'I don't know, but I feel an oppressive silence,' Why does Resian feel this kind of silence?

    (c) Taiyo removed her cardigan and immediately swung into action.

  • Read the passage below and then answer questions that follow.(Solved)

    Read the passage below and then answer questions that follow.

    Drug addiction is not a hallmark of moral failure or lack of willpower—it’s a complex disease that deserves long-term, extensive treatment, just like any other chronic condition. People who have not struggled with substance abuse may find it difficult to understand why anyone would start using. Why would someone willingly put themselves in harm’s way by taking dangerous substances? There are, in fact, many reasons why some people turn to or start abusing drugs, and unfortunately the consequences can be life-shattering. While every case is unique, there are general patterns that indicate why some people use drugs, how addiction develops, and the consequences of drug abuse.
    While specific incentives differ from person to person, generally speaking, people start using drugs to escape or mask pain.
    In some individuals, the onset of drug use can be from untreated psychiatric issues including anxiety and depression. The rush of pleasure from using drugs can provide temporary solace from suffering, which can stem from many mental health or other issues including trauma or abuse, mental illness, low self-esteem, poverty, relationship problems, loss of a loved one, stress, and chronic pain or medical conditions. But whatever their reason for starting, once addiction sets in, the disease usually spirals more and more out of their control.
    For most people, the initial decision to take drugs is voluntary. But as they are swept up into the cycle of addiction, the neural pathways in their brain change so they are less able to control their behavior and resist their intense impulses.
    It works like this: the brain rewards pleasurable experiences (such as food, intimacy, and laughter) with surges of feel-good chemicals like dopamine. But using drugs triggers the release of much more dopamine than chocolate or cuddling does, and the rush of euphoria compels them to repeat the experience. The more someone uses drugs, the more they condition their brain to anticipate the same substance-fueled pleasant sensations.

    That’s why it’s so difficult to stop. The brain becomes wired for addiction. Eventually, one’s tolerance may build so much that addictive behavior no longer provides any pleasure, and using drugs simply becomes a way to avoid withdrawal. They need drugs just to keep feeling normal.
    Not everyone who experiments with drugs becomes an addict. There’s no single factor that can predict whether someone will become addicted, though there are general social, biological, and environmental factors that do increase the risk.
    Genes, in combination with environmental factors, account for about half of a person’s addiction vulnerability. Being male, African American, or having a mental illness can also increase a person’s risk of progressing to addiction.Family, friends, and socioeconomic status have a significant impact on a person’s likelihood of developing an addiction. Physical and sexual abuse, peer pressure, stress, and parental guidance can greatly affect the occurrence of substance abuse. Although a person can become an addict at any age, the earlier substance use begins, the more likely it will escalate to serious addiction.
    The sad truth is that more deaths, illnesses, and disabilities are caused by substance abuse than by any other preventable health condition. Prolonged drug dependence interferes with just about every organ in the human body, and different drugs have different damaging effects.

    a) According to the passage, what is drug addiction?

    b) Make notes on the causes of drug abuse.

    c) How does addiction develop according to the passage?

    d) List the environmental factors that predict whether someone will become addicted.

    e) What are the effects of substance abuse according to the passage?

    f) Explain the meaning following expressions as used in the passage.

    i. Willpower

    ii. Compels

    iii. Escalate

  • Read the excerpt below and then answer the questions that follow.(Solved)

    Read the excerpt below and then answer the questions that follow.

    Nora. What right have you to question me, Mr.Krogstad?–You, one of my husband’s subordinates! But since you ask, you shall know. Yes, Mrs. Linde is to have an appointment. And it was I who pleaded her cause, Mr. Krogstad, let me tell you that.
    Krogstad. I was right in what I thought, then.
    Nora (walking up and down the stage). Sometimes one has a tiny little bit of influence, I should hope. Because one is a woman, it does not necessarily follow that–. When anyone is in a subordinate position, Mr. Krogstad, they should really be careful to avoid offending anyone who–who–
    Krogstad. Who has influence?
    Nora. Exactly.
    Krogstad (changing his tone). Mrs. Helmer, you will be so good as to use your influence on my behalf.
    Nora. What? What do you mean?
    Krogstad. You will be so kind as to see that I am allowed to keep my subordinate position in the Bank.
    Nora. What do you mean by that? Who proposes to take your post away from you?
    Krogstad. Oh, there is no necessity to keep up the pretence of ignorance. I can quite understand that your friend is not very anxious to expose herself to the chance of rubbing shoulders with me; and I quite understand, too, whom I have to thank for being turned off.
    Nora. But I assure you–
    Krogstad. Very likely; but, to come to the point, the time has come when I should advise you to use your influence to prevent that.
    Nora. But, Mr. Krogstad, I have no influence.
    Krogstad. Haven’t you? I thought you said yourself just now–
    Nora. Naturally I did not mean you to put that construction on it. I! What should make you think I have any influence of that kind with my husband?
    Krogstad. Oh, I have known your husband from our student days. I don’t suppose he is any more unassailable than other husbands.
    Nora. If you speak slightingly of my husband, I shall turn you out of the house.
    Krogstad. You are bold, Mrs. Helmer.
    Nora. I am not afraid of you any longer. As soon as the New Year comes, I shall in a very short time be free of the whole thing.
    Krogstad (controlling himself ). Listen to me, Mrs.Helmer. If necessary, I am prepared to fight for my small post in the Bank as if I were fighting for my life.
    Nora. So it seems.
    Krogstad. It is not only for the sake of the money; indeed, that weighs least with me in the matter. There is another reason–well, I may as well tell you. My position is this. I daresay you know, like everybody else, that once, many years ago, I was guilty of an indiscretion.
    Nora. I think I have heard something of the kind.
    Krogstad. The matter never came into court; but every way seemed to be closed to me after that. So I took to the business that you know of. I had to do something; and, honestly, I don’t think I’ve been one of the worst. But now I must cut myself free from all that. My sons are growing up; for their sake I must try and win back as much respect as I can in the town. This post in the Bank was like the first step up for me–and now your husband is going to kick me downstairs again into the mud.
    Nora. But you must believe me, Mr. Krogstad; it is not in my power to help you at all.
    Krogstad. Then it is because you haven’t the will; but I have means to compel you.

    (a) Krogstad asks four questions just before this excerpt. Which are they?

    (b) For what reasons has Krogstad visited Nora? Refer to what happens in the excerpt and in the rest of the play.

    GRUSHA (while the PEASANT WOMAN bows again and again.): I’d left some milk on the stove, and I suddenly remembered it.
    CORPORAL: Or maybe you imagined I looked at you unchastely? Like there could be something between us? A carnal glance, know what I mean?
    GRUSHA: I didn’t see it.
    COPORAL: But it’s possible, huh? You admit that much. After all, I might be a pig. I’ll be frank with you: I could think of all sorts of things if we were alone. (To the PEASANT WOMAN:) Shouldn’t you be busy in the yard? Feeding the hens?
    PEASANT WOMAN (falling suddenly to her knees): Soldier, I didn’t know a thing about it. Please don’t burn the roof over our heads.
    CORPORAL: What are you talking about?
    PEASANT WOMAN: I had nothing to do with it. She left it on my doorstep, I swear it!
    CORPORAL (suddenly seeing the CHILD and whistling): Ah, so there’s a little something in the crib! Blockhead, I smell a thousand piasters. Take the old girl outside and hold on to her. It looks like I have a little cross-examining to do. (The PEASANT WOMAN lets herself be led out by the PRIVATE, without a word.) So, you’ve got the child I wanted from you! (He walks toward the crib).
    GRUSHA: Officer, he’s mine. He’s not the one you’re after.
    CORPORAL: I’ll just take a look. (He bends over the crib)
    GRUSHA looks round in despair.
    GRUSHA: He’s mine! He’s mine!
    CORPORAL: Fine linen!
    GRUSHA dashes at him to pull him away. He throws her off and again bends over the crib. Again looking round in despair, she sees a log of wood, seizes it, and hits the CORPORAL over the head from behind. The CORPORAL collapses. She quickly picks up the CHILD and rushes off.
