इंग्रजी भाषेचे महत्त्वाचे प्रश्न – संच ७ | English Question Paper 7 With Answer

Read the following passage carefully and answer the given questions.
Once upon a time, there was a poor orphan boy called Dick Whittington. The people in his
village believed that the streets of London were paved with gold. So Dick decided to travel
there and become a rich man. Dick walked for many days, but when he arrived in London there
were no streets of gold! Tired and hungry, he fell asleep on the steps of a great house. The
house belonged to a rich businessman who found Dick and gave him a job cleaning the
kitchen.
Dick worked very hard and was happy. He had enough to eat and at night he could sleep by
the fire. There was a problem though! At night, rats ran around the kitchen and kept him
awake. So Dick went out and found the fastest rat-catching cat in London! The cat caught all
the rats that came into the house and Dick could sleep at night.
The businessman heard about the amazing cat and asked Dick if he could take it on his ship
to catch rats on his next journey. Dick agreed, but was very sad to see the cat go.
Soon the businessman returned. He was very happy because Dick’s cat had caught all the rats
on the ship. He gave Dick a reward and promoted him to his assistant. Dick worked hard for
the businessman and learned everything he could. Eventually he married the businessman’s
daughter and started a very successful business of his own. And, yes, he did become Mayor
of London!

How was Dick Whittington rewarded?

Read the following passage carefully and answer the given questions.
In his seven decades, Mehrajuddin has been a police commander, a fighter for the
mujahideen, a district governor and a prosecutor, and even briefly worked in Europe. Until this
year, he has never struggled to feed his family. Now they have just one meal a day, hard discs
of stale bread soaked in water until they soften to mush. “All the family are starving,” he says
bluntly as he waits at a food distribution centre in Kabul for a handout of lentils, rice, flour and
oil. “I even worry about dying, because if it happens tomorrow, how will my family pay for my
funeral?” His government pension has stopped, and his son’s position as a public servant has
been abolished. His disabled wife and daughter are especially vulnerable. The food he is
picking up should last them a couple of weeks but after that, he does not know what they will
do. Millions of families share his worries. Hunger is stalking Afghanistan, caused by a
devastating confluence of political and environmental crises. The UN estimates that only two
percent of the population is getting enough to eat. It’s a shame that this kind of world exist
