Answer:
2. Reading Comprehension – Read the following passage and answer the questions given below:
Ikebana is the Japanese art of flower arrangement. The term ‘Ikebana’ comes from two Japanese words Ike, meaning ‘to live’ and bana, meaning ‘flowers’. The flowers are used in odd numbers and placed in an asymmetrical triangle. The length of the flowers in the arrangement is proportionate to the vase. Three main lengths are used to signify man, earth and heaven. The angle at which each flower is placed is different to provide rhythm and movement to the arrangement. Once the basic techniques are mastered, one is free to express oneself using plant materials like branches, barks, leaves, grass, moss, flowers, fruits or even seeds. The arrangement can be made on a platter, a vase, a cup, a wine glass or on anything that catches one’s fancy. What makes Ikebana different from other flower arrangements is its asymmetrical composition, the use of ‘empty’ space and lack of clutter. ‘Less’ is regarded as ‘plenty’. One can create a beautiful arrangement with just one flower. Ikebana brings one close to nature. One gets to know the feel and texture of various flowers and the seasons when they are in bloom. The art instills patience and discipline and is a good stress buster, especially when one is bogged down by homework and studies. It teaches one to be in the present, and as the arrangement does not last long, one learns not to become attached to things. Last but not the least, when one realizes that one can create a good Ikebana arrangement with only a few flowers, one understands that it is possible to have a good life with only a few possessions.
