READING (20 marks)
1. Read the passage given below.
1. These days, it is not unusual to see people listening to music or using their electronic gadgets
while crossing busy roads or travelling on public transports, regardless of the risks involved
I have often wondered why they take such risks: is it because they want to exude a sense of
independence, or is it that they want to tell the world to stop bothering there? Or is it that they
just want to show how cool they are? Whether it is a workman or an executive, earphones have
become an inseparable part of our lives, sometimes even leading to tragicomic situations.
2. The other day, an electrician had come to our house to fix something. We told him in detail
what needed to be done. But after he left, I found that the man had done almost nothing
It later turned out that he could not hear cur directions clearly because he had an earphone
on. Hundreds of such earphones' addicts commute by the Deihi Metro every day. While one
should not begrudge anyone their moments of privacy or their love for music, the fact is 'iPod
oblivion can sometimes be very dangerous.
3. Recently, I was travelling with my wife on the Delhi Mero. Since the train was approaching
the last station, there weren't too many passengers. In our compartment, other than us, there
were only two women sitting on the other side of the aisle. And then suddenly, I spotted a
duffel bag. The bomb scare lasted for several minutes. Then suddenly, a youth energed from
nowhere and picked up the bag. When we tried to stop him, he looked at us, surprised. Then be
took off his earpieces, lifted the bag, and told us that the bag belonged to him and that he was
going to get off at the next station.
4. We were stunned but recovered in time to ask him where he was all this while. His answer
he was in the compartment, leaning against the door totally immersed in the music. He had no
clue about what was going on around him. When he got off, earplugs in his band, we could
hear strains of the song.
