COMPREHENSION TEST
Exercise A:
India is really a beautiful country with its high snow-covered mountains,
its vast blue valleys, the rivers, the deserts, the rich red soil of the
earth,palmtrees, forests, and the disappearing wild animals. And it is very beautiful in its
variety, in the innumerable colours. In the vast expanse of the sky.You can get
the whole feeling of the country with its ancient traditions ,the mosques,
the temples, the bright sunlight, the parrots and the monkeys.When you go
up into the hills, the air is cool and fresh there is green grass.
You would also see here in every big town the enormous increase of
population, and walking down any street, you would see people sleeping on
the pavement, the terrible poverty, the dirt, the politician with his ambitions,
everlastingly talking about the people and their welfar
ng about the people and their welfare, the various petty
leaders with their flocks, the division of language, the intense arrogance, the
Selfishness, the pride of race and ancient forbears, it is all there; and the
strangest thing is children laughing. It is an incredible land with its incredible
sorrow. You feel all this deep down in yourself with tears.
