A1. Read the following passage carefully.

It was very hot in the small courtroom and everyone felt sleepy. After a tiring morning, the clerks

were about to leave for lunch. The judge felt relieved when the last case came up before the court.

A short middle-aged man with grey hair and small blue eyes was now standing before him. The man

had a foolish expression on his face. He appeared troubled as he couldn’t understand what was

going on. The man was accused of breaking into a house and stealing a cheap watch. The witness

could not give a clear account of the incident. He said that he was not sure whether this was the

man. The judge considered the matter and then declared that he was releasing the man for want of

proof. He dismissed the case and then rose to go. Meanwhile the person accused of the crime

approached the judge with a puzzled expression on his face. The judge paused for a moment and

then the man suddenly asked, ‘Excuse me sir, but do I have to give back the watch or not?’

What worlds of wonder are our books! As one opens them and looks, New ideas and people rise In our fancies and our eyes. The room we sit in melts away, And we find ourselves at play With someone who, before the end, May become our chosen friend. Or we sail along the page To some other land or age. Here's our body in the chair, But our mind is over there. Each book is a magic box, Which with a touch a child unlocks. In between their outside covers Books hold all things for their lovers.

Along with a dozen or so other trainee sky divers, Christopher Jones is packed tightly into a

Cessna 182, as it flies over the western Australian countryside just south of Perth. It’s just after

4 p.m. and this will be Jones’ fifth jump in his accelerated freefall programme. It is the first time

that he is jumping solo, without being tethered to an instructor. Today’s solo skydiving jump is

the end of a lifelong dream for the 22 year old. As a child, Jones fell in love with flying after

joining his uncle in the small plane he owned. He planned to become a pilot when he grew up.

But his hopes were dashed when he was diagnosed with epilepsy at the age of 12. He was told

that it would prevent him from ever getting a pilot’s license.

Years later, after jumping along with a skydiving instructor in Europe, he fell in love with the

sport. He thought that freefalling through the sky was exciting and adventurous; it was almost

like flying. So he said to his parents, “If I can’t fly a plane, I’ll jump out of one instead.”
