Question

1. Read the passage given below:
Section- A (Reading)
Airplanes have the reputation of being dangerous and even hardened travelers are
intimidated by them. They also have the grave
disadvantage of being the most
expensive form of transport but
nothing can match them for speed and comfort,
travelling at a height of 30,000 feet, far above the clouds, and at over 500 miles an hour
is an exhilarating experience. You do not have to devise ways of taking your mind off
the journey, for an airplane gets you to your destination rapidly.
For a few hours, you settle back in a deep armchair to enjoy the flight. The real escapist
can watch a free film show and sip a hot or cold drink on some services. But even
when such refreshments are not available, there is plenty to keep you occupied. An
airplane offers you an unusual breathtaking view of the world. You soar effortlessly
over high mountains and deep valleys. You
really see the shape of the land. If the
landscape is hidden from view, you can enjoy the extraordinary sight of unbroken
clouds, plains that stretch out for miles before your while the sun shines brilliantly in a
clear sky. The journey is so smooth that there is nothing to prevent you from reading or
sleeping. However you decide to spend your time, one thing is certain: you will arrive at
your destination fresh and uncrumpled. You will not have to spend the next few days
recovering from a long and arduous journey.
