Passage I
Just as some men like to play football or cricket, so some men like to climb
mountains. This is often very difficult to do, for mountains are not just big
hills. Paths are usually very steep. Some mountain sides are straight up and
down, so that it may take many hours to climb as little as one hundred feet.
There is always the danger that you may fall off and be killed or injured. Men
talk about conquering a mountain. It is wonderful feeling to reach the top of
mountain after climbing for hours and may be even for days. You look down
and see the whole counny below you. You feel godlike. Two Italian prisoners

of war escaped from a prison camp in Kenya during the war. They did not try
to get back to their own country, for they knew that was impossible. Instead,
they climbed to the top of Mount Kenya and then they came down again and
gave themselves up. They had wanted to get that feeling of freedom that one
has, after climbing a difficult mountain.
Passage II
Gandhiji recognised that, while all men should have equal opportunity, all did
not have the same capacity. Some had the ability to earn more than others, but
he believed that those who had talent would be performing the work of society
if they used their talent wisely and well. Gandhiji said that he would allow a
man of intellect to earn more and not suppress his talent. But it was his View
that the bulk of his larger earnings should go to the common fund. Those with
talent and opportunity would find their fulfillment as trustees. Gandhjji
extended this concept of trusteeship to cover all fields of life.
(A) a philosophy
(B) applicable to social life only
(C) applicable to all fields of life
(D) irrelevant today
Passage IV
Langston Hughes was one of the greatest American writers of the 20”‘ century.
He was born in Joplin, Missouri, and moved to Cleveland at the age of
fourteen. Several years later he spent one year in Mexico before attending
Columbia University in New York. For a few years after that he roamed the
world as a Seaman, visiting ports around the world and writing some poetry.
l-le returned to the United States and attended Lincoln University, where he
won the Witter Bynner prize for undergraduate poetry. After graduating in
1928, he travelled to Spain and to Russia with the help of a Guggenheim
fellowship. His novels include Not Without Laughter (1930) and The Big Sea
(1940). He wrote an autobiography in 1956 and also published several
collections of poetry. His collections include: The Weary Blues (1926), The
Dream Keeper (1932), Shakespeare in Harlem (1942), Fields of Wonder
(1947), One Way Ticket (1947), and Selected Poems (1959). A man of many
talents, Hughes was also a lyricist, librettist, and a journalist. As an old man in
the 1960s he spent much of his time collecting poems from Africa and from
At"'rican-Americans to popularise black writers. Hughes is one of the most
accomplished writers in American literary history, and he is seen as one of the
artistic leaders of the Harlem Renaissance, the period when a neighbourhood
that was predominantly black produced a flood of great literature, music, and
other art forms depicting daily city life for Af1ican~Americans.
