All the sections are compulsory.  \n􀁸 Separate instructions are given with each section and question, wherever necessary.  \n􀁸 Read these instructions carefully and follow them faithfully.  \n􀁸 Do not exceed the prescribed word limit while answering the questions.  \nSECTION A: READING (10 Marks)  \n1. Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions that follow: (10)  \n1. The therapeutic value and healing powers of plants were demonstrated to me when I was a boy of about ten. I had developed an acute persistent abdominal pain that did not respond readily to hospital medication. In total desperation she took me to Egya Mensa, a well-known herbalist in my hometown in the Western province of Ghana.  \n2. After a brief interview, he went out to the field. He returned with several leaves and the bark of a tree and one of his attendants immediately prepared a decoction. I was given a glass of this preparation, it tasted extremely bitter, but within an hour or so I began to feel relieved. Within about three days, the frequent abdominal pain stopped and I recall gaining a good appetite. I have appreciated the healing powers of medicinal plants ever since.  \n3. In fact, demographic studies by various national governments and inter-governmental organizations such as the World Health Organisation (WHO) indicate that for 75 to 90 per cent of the rural populations ofthe world, the herbalist is the only person who handles their medical problems.  \n4. In African culture, traditional medical practitioners are always considered to be influential, spiritual leaders as well, using magic and religion along with medicines. Illness is handled with the individual’s hidden spiritual powers and with application of plants that have been found especially to contain healing powers.  \n5. Over the years I have come to distinguish three types of medicinal practitioners in African societies and to classify the extent to which each uses medicinal plants. The first is the herbalist, who generally enjoys the prestige and reputation of being the real traditional medical professional. The second group represents the divine healers. They are fetish priests whose practice depends upon their purported supernatural powers of diagnosis. Thirdly, the witch doctor, the practitioner who is credited with ability to intercept the evil deeds of a witch.  \n6. From the drug stores in New Delhi, I picked up some well-packaged bark and roots of Rauwolfia Serpentina, a plant that was very well known in ancient Asiatic medicine. The storekeeper said that it cures hypertension.  \n7. For health, social and economic reasons, it seems clear that developing countries should begin an extensive programme aimed at an examination and research into the properties of the most important medicinal plants. In most countries, the information on such plants is dispersed and unorganized. Much ofit is in the heads of aging herbalists, who represent a dying breed.  \nI. On the basis of your reading of the passage, answer the following questions by choosing the best of  \nthe given choices: (4)  \n(a) What did Egya Mensa do to the author when his mother took him there?  \n(i) did not attend to them  \n(ii) gave him a concoction of leaves and bark  \n(iii) tested his appetite  \n(iv) advised the child not to take Western medicine  \n(b) The WHO demographic studies indicate that ……..  \n(i) most of the rural populations depend on herbalists for health care  \n(ii) 75 to 90 percent of rural populations were in poor health  \n(iii) Urban population should also use herbal medicine  \n(iv) None of the above  \n(c) The author appreciates the healing powers of medicinal plants because …………  \n(i) he is an African  \n(ii) he did not believe in European medicines  \n(iii) he had been cured by herbal medi","cbCaijKWUlMYplIb","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaijKWUlMYplIb","pdf",514672,"English","# SECTION A: READING\n## Q1 Reading passage and multiple-choice questions (a-d)\n## Q1 Answer briefly (a-d)\n## Q1 Vocabulary substitutes (a-b)\n# SECTION B: WRITING SKILLS & GRAMMAR\n## Q2 Notice writing (painting contest)\n## Q3 Newspaper article (Careers Galore)\n## Q4 Sentence rearrangement","[{\"question\":\"What are the sections included in this unit test paper?\",\"answer\":\"The paper contains three compulsory sections: Section A (Reading), Section B (Writing Skills \\u0026 Grammar), and Section C.\"},{\"question\":\"What is the reading passage mainly about?\",\"answer\":\"The passage explains the therapeutic and healing value of medicinal plants, describing an experience with a herbalist and discussing traditional medical practitioners in African culture.\"},{\"question\":\"What writing tasks are asked in Section B?\",\"answer\":\"Students draft a school notice for an inter-school painting contest, write a newspaper article titled “Careers Galore,” and rearrange words to form meaningful sentences.\"}]","INDIAN SCHOOL SOHAR - UNIT TEST: 2017-18 - ENGLISH (Core), Class XI | PDF",1791051623]
