18. Questions (18 to 21): Read the following passage and answer the questions
that follow:
My cell phone rings again. It is futile to ignore it anymore.
Valerie is persistent. She will continue to bedevil me until I acquiesce.
“Hello,” I answer.
“Circus, Bobbie?” she says in her singsong voice. “When are we heading out? Only
two more days left!”
I abhor the Circus. The boisterous crowds, the insanely long lines and the
impossibility of nding a clean restroom all combine to make this an event that I
dread.
For Valerie, my best friend since the angst of middle school, the Circus is a sign
that divine powers really do exist.
“Really, Bobbie, where else can you pet a cow, ride a horse, fall ten stories, see the
world’s smallest person and eat fried macaroni and cheese?” Valerie asks
gleefully.
“Hell?” I guess.
The fried food at the Circus is a gastronomical nightmare on its own. I once tried a
fried pickle at the fair and was sick to my stomach for hours. And a fried donut
hamburger with bacon, cheese AND a greasy egg? How could that not be
deleterious to your health?
I have not seen Valerie for a good month; our schedules are both so hectic. My
hatred of the Circus becomes inconsequential to my desire to hang with Val.
Alas, I ignore my anti-fair bias for the umpteenth year.
“Pick me up at noon,” I say and hang up the phone.
What does the word “acquiesce” mean?
A. Give in
B. Life the phone
C. Agree 1

D. Accept


A. Unconvincing

C. Jubilant
D. Dull

A. Just used to connect multiple sentences.
B. Multiple activities found at the circus
C. To stress on large number of food items present in the menu
D. Numerous choices one has at the venue

21. What does the word GASTRONOMICAL mean?

A. Generates gas
B. Related to stomach
C. Food
D. Related to dreams

22. (Questions 22 to 25): Read the following passage and answer the questions
below:
Fasting is an act of homage to the majesty of appetite. So I think we should
arrange to give up our pleasures regularly–our food, our friends, our lovers–in
order to preserve their intensity, and the moment of coming back to them. For this
is the moment that renews and refreshes both oneself and the thing one loves.
Sailors and travelers enjoyed this once, and so did hunters, I suppose. Part of the
weariness of modern life may be that we live too much on top of each other, and
are entertained and fed too regularly.
Once we were separated by hunger both from our food and families, and then we
learned to value both. The men went off hunting, and the dogs went with them; the
women and children waved goodbye. The cave was empty of men for days on end;
nobody ate, or knew what to do. The women crouched by the re, the wet smoke
in their eyes; the children wailed; everybody was hungry. Then one night there
were shouts and the barking of dogs from the hills, and the men came back loaded
with meat. This was the great reunion, and everybody gorged themselves silly, and
appetite came into its own; the long-awaited meal became a feast to remember
and an almost sacred celebration of life. Now we go off to the o ce and come
home in the evenings to cheap chicken and frozen peas. Very nice, but too much
of it, too easy and regular, served up without effort or wanting. We eat, we are
1
lucky, our faces are shining with fat, but we don’t know the pleasure of being
hungry any more. 
Too much of anything–too much music, entertainment, happy snacks, or time
spent with one’s friends–creates a kind of impotence of living by which one can no
longer hear, or taste, or see, or love, or remember. Life is short and precious, and
appetite is one of its guardians, and loss of appetite is a sort of death. So if we are
to enjoy this short life we should respect the divinity of appetite, and keep it eager
and not too much blunted.
What is the author’s main argument in the passage?
a) The olden times, when the roles of men and women were clearly divided, were
far more enjoyable than the present time
b) There is not enough effort required anymore to obtain food and hence the
pleasure derived is not the same
c) People who don’t have enough to eat enjoy life much more than those who have
plentiful
d) We should deny ourselves pleasures once in a while in order to whet our desires
and feel more alive

23. What are the bene ts of fasting?

a) It is an act against the drawbacks of appetite
b) It brings joy in eating, and one learns to appreciate food
c) It is the method to understand how civilization evolved
d) It is a punishment for the greedy and unkind

24. What commonality has been highlighted between the sailors and hunters?
a) Neither were fed nor entertained regularly
b) They renew and refresh themselves regularly
c) They were regularly separated from their loved ones and things they liked
d) The roles of men and women were clearly divided for both professions

25. ‘The long-awaited meal became a feast to remember and an almost sacred
celebration of life’, what does this line imply?
a) After so many days of being hungry, the cave men and women felt alive once
again after eating the food
b) People respected and were thankful for getting food after days of being hungry
and also of being united with their loved ones
c) Cave men and women ate and celebrated together with the entire community
making the feast really enjoyable
d) Cave men and women enjoyed themselves in the feast and performed a
ceremony to thank the Gods for their safe return back home
