49% 9:41 AM ASM_49124 1. I recently heard a story from a man named Malcolm Dalkoff. He's 48. For the last 24 years he has been a professional writer, mostly in advertising. Here is what he told me. As a boy Dalkoff was terribly insecure and shy. He had a few friends and no self-confidence. 2. One day in October,1965, his high school English teacher, Ruth Brauch gave the class an assignment. The students had been reading To Kill a Mocking Bird. Now they were to write their own chapter that would follow the last chapter of the novel. Today he cannot recall anything special about the chapter he wrote, or what grade Mrs. Brauch gave him. What he does remember what he will never forget ---are the four words Mrs. Brauch wrote in the margin of the paper, " This is good writing". 6 3. Four words! They changed his life. "Until I read those words, I had no idea of who I was or what I was going to be," he said. "After reading her note, I went home and wrote a short story, something I had always dreamed of doing but never believed I could do." Over the rest of the year in school, he wrote many stories and always brought them to school for Mrs. Brauch to evaluate. She was encouraging, rough and honest. She was just what I needed, " Dalkoff said. His confidence grew; his horizons broadened; he started off on a successful, fulfilling life. Dalkoff is convinced that none of this could have happened had that woman not written those four words in the margin of his paper. 4. For his 30th high school reunion, Dalkoff went back and visited Mrs. Brauch, who had retired. He told her what her four words had done for him. He told her that because she had given him the confidence to be a writer, he had been able to pass that confidence on to the woman who would become his wife, who became a writer herself. He also told Mrs. Brauch that a woman in his office, who was working in the evenings towards a high school equivalency diploma, had come to him for advice and assistance. She had respected him because he was a writer-that is why she turned to him. Mrs. Brauch was especially moved by the story of helping the young woman. "At that moment I think we both realized that Mrs. Brauch had cast an incredibly long shadow," he said. So, a few words can change everything. 1.1 Based on your understanding of the passage complete the summary given below. Use only one word to fill in each blank. The encouragement and support provided by Mrs. Brauch was a turning point in the life of Dalkoff. He found himself writing short stories which were once a a) to him.

Q2
Read the passage and answer the questions that follow.
Once upon a time, I went for a week's holiday to the Continent with an Indian friend. We both enjoyed ourselves and were sorry when the week was over, but on parting, our behaviour was absolutely different. He was plunged in despair. He felt that because the holiday that was overall happiness was over until the world ended. He could not express his sorrow too much. But in me, the Englishman came out strong. I could not see what there was to make a fuss about. It wasn't as if we were parting forever or dying. 'Buck up', I said, 'do buck up'. He refused to buck up and I left him plunged in gloom.
