01. Read the passage given below and answer the questions that
follow. (10 marks)
1. In six months, road users in Kathmandu, the capital of Nepal,
have learned to cringe at using the car horn unnecessarily. "I feel
embarrassed now when I occasionally blow the horn,” said
Rajaram Dangal, a hotel manager. "I feel like people are staring at
me from all around.” Clearly, the traffic police's slogan of "Let's
be civilised, let's ne: use the horn" is working.
2. Making Dangal give up his instinctive action at the wheel has
not been easy. Like in most old South Asian cities, horns seem a
matter of life an:' death in Kathmandu, with its narrow,
congested, pot liolei roads. Pedestrians and animals-cross the
roads at will. There are no traffic lights and road dividers. And yet
today, you only hear a few stray beeps on the street. Even these
sound tentative and have none of the aggressive, let-me-through
tone that you find in, say, Delhi.
