Read the passage. Then answer the questions no. A:[Unit-7; Lesson-5(B)]Mother Teresa was moved by the sight of the sick and dying on the streets of Kolkata. She founded a home for the dying destitute and named it 'Nirmal $Hriday^{\prime}, meaning$ 'Pure $Heart^{\prime}. She and her fellow nuns brought the dying people off the streets of Kolkata \to this$ home. They were lovingly looked after and cared for. Since then many men, women and children have been taken from the streets and carried $\to Nirmal$ Hriday. These unloved and uncared for people get an opportunity $\to die in an environment of kindness and$ love. In their last hours they get human and divine love, and can feel they are also children of God.The Missionaries of Charity try $\to find jobs for those who$ survive, or send them $\to homes where they can live happily for some more years in a caring$ environment. Regarding commitment $\to$ family, Mother Teresa said, " May be in our own family, we have somebody, who is feeling lonely, who is feeling sick, who is feeling worried. Are we there? Are we willing $\to give until it hurts in order \to be with our$ families, or do we put our interest first? We must remember that love

\begin{s}at home and we must also remember that future of humanity passes through the

family".Mother Teresa's work has been recognised throughout the world and she received a number of awards. These include the Pope John XXIII Peace Prize (1971), the Nehru Prize for Promotion of International Peace & Understanding (1972), the Balzan Prize (1978), the Nobel Peace Prize (1979) and the Bharat Ratna (1980).Mother Teresa died at the age of 87, on 5 September 1997.The world salutes her for her love and compassion for humanity. She has taught us how $\to extend our hand towards those who need our love and support irrespective of$ creed, caste and religion.

7.Read the following text carefully and answer the questions no. 1 : Traditional childhood pastimes of climbing trees and playing conkers are in decline, according $\to a survey by the RSPB (Royal Society for the Protection of$ Birds). It's a charitable organization registered in England and Wales. The survey shows that people under 34 recall far fewer such childhood outdoor experiences than people over 55, according $\to a survey by$ RSPB. People were asked which of the twelve childhood outdoor experiences they could remember. The answer included making dens, daisy chains, climbing trees, playing conkers and feeding birds. Four out of five boys climbed trees and the same number of girls made daisy chains. But the survey showed the numbers declining among the newer generations. Some 15% more of those aged over 55 had these outdoor experiences in their childhood, compared with those between 15-34 years old. Some 92% of the public agreed that experiences of nature were still important $\to$ children, and 82% agreed that schools should play a role in providing them $\to all$ children. The survey has highlighted the positive impact of contact with nature on a child's education, health, wellbeing and social skills. At the same time, there has been a decline in these opportunities, with negative consequences for children, families and society a condition now known as nature deficit disorder. Mike Clarke, chief executive of the RSPB, will meet parliament members $\to urge the government \to join other organizations in providing children with first-hand experiences of the natural environment \ldots\ldots\ldots.$ "We believe this guidance should include the many positive impacts $\to children of having contact with nature and learning outside the$ classroom." 1.
