Question

Q1) Read the passage carefully and answer the questions that follow:

1. It is an unprecedented experience for all Indians during this lockdown period due to the

Covid-19 pandemic. Almost everyone is going through a rough phase and finding it

challenging to deal with the abrupt change in lifestyle. Since the numbers of Corona

patients are soaring up in India, nobody believes the government is going to lift off the

lockdown any time soon. What is going on in everyone’s mind is the thought to adopt

the change. Maybe the bulk of people seek a disciplined schedule so that they can invest

the time in relevant concerns.

2. Spend quality time with family when you are presented with the opportunity to stay at

home 24/7, you can make it enjoyable with family members around you. Try to involve

yourself as much as you can with family discussions. Focus on spreading laughter and

taking the same in return. If you used to spend a significant part of your time in office, it

is a perfect chance to make it up with family. Include your effort in making dishes in

home. If you are not the regular cook in your house, it is a great time to be a part of it. It takes some profound efforts to make food every day. Still, it is entertaining if all family

members work together to cook meals. You can share your knowledge of cooking and

any specific recipe, if you know.

3. Conduct family prayers during this frightening crisis; it is essential to spend some time

worshipping and praying to God. A few minutes of prayers and holy contemplation can

kill your day long stress and convey peace to everyone’s mind.

4. Yoga and exercise in the course of this lockdown keep you as much fit as possible. Do an

hour of exercise and yoga every day in the morning. It will improve your immunity and

make your body less susceptible to the Coronavirus. It will be much better if all family

members perform yoga and exercise simultaneously.

5. Read good books and novels. Reading books is a habit of the highest standard. It

expands your intellectual ability and multiplies your wisdom. The more you read, the

more your perception gets clearer, and the more you gain knowledge.
