SECTION –B
COMPREHENSION
A. Read the passage carefully and answer the following questions:
One day, a guru foresaw in a flash of vision what he
would be in his next life. So he called his favourite
disciple and asked him what he would do for his guru in
return for all he had received. The disciple said he would
do whatever his guru asked him to do. Having received
this promise, the guru said, “Then this is what I’d like you
to do for me. I’ve learned that when I die, which will be
very soon, I’m going to be reborn as a cat. Do you see that cat eating garbage there in
the yard? I’m going to be reborn as the fourth kitten of its next litter. You’ll recognize
me by a mark on my brow. When that cat has littered, find the fourth kitten with a mark
on its brow and, with one stroke of your knife, slaughter it. I’ll then be released from a
cat’s life. Will you do this for me?”
The disciple was sad to hear all this, but he agreed to do as he had promised. Soon after
this conversation, the guru did die. And the cat did have a litter of four little kittens. One
day, the disciple sharpened his knife and picked out the fourth little kitten, which did
indeed have a mark on its brow. Just as he was about to bring down his knife to slit its
throat, the little kitten suddenly spoke. “Stop! Don’t kill me!” it screamed. Before the
disciple could recover from the shock of hearing the little kitten speak in a human voice,
it said, “Don’t kill me. I want to live on as a cat. When I asked you to kill me, I didn’t
know what a cat’s life would be like. It’s great! Just let me go.”

ART
Printed collage card
To make a card, cut a rectangle from thick paper and fold it in half. Then cut another
rectangle cardboard.
Tape the end of string to the cardboard, then wind the string roughly around and around.
Wind the string all along the cardboard, and then cut it. Tape the end on the same side of
the cardboard as the other piece of tape.
Paint the string with yellow paint, so that it is covered. Then press it onto the folded card,
to print yellow lines.
Print more lines on the card, adding more paint as you go. Continue until the card is
covered with lots of yellow lines.
Cut a square from yellow paper, smaller than the card. Then cut an even smaller square
from light green paper.
Wrap string around around another piece of cardboard. Then print green lines on the green
square, as you did before.
Glue the yellow and green squares onto the card. Then cut out a white paper flowers and a
yellow middle and glue them on.
Try cutting out lots of small flowers. You can add some paper leaves and a stalk.
