शिवजयंती घराघरात शिवराय मनामनात घरगुती शिवजयंती सजावट स्पर्धा -2023🟧🟩🟧🟩https://t.co/eX6xErDwnl🟩🟧🟩🟧🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩📢📢📢📢इतर group वर तसेच सहकारी व नातेवाईकांना शेअर करा. — Arsod English Classes, Yavatmal (@Arsodsir) February 9, 2023 Answers of Activity Sheet for 12th English Section –I (Prose) (Reading for comprehension, Language study, Vocabulary, Summary, Note- Making or Mind Mapping) Q. 1.A) Read the given extract and complete the activity given below (12 Marks)                                                          On the most basic level, when I’m in Tibet, though not a real Buddhist, I spend days on end in temples, listening to the chants of sutras. I go to Iceland to visit the lunar spaces within me, and in the uncanny quietude and emptiness of that vast and treeless world, to tap parts of myself generally obscured by chatter and routine.  We travel, then, in search of both self and anonymity - and, of course, in finding the one we apprehend the other. Abroad, we are wonderfully free of caste and job and standing; we are, as Hazlitt puts it, just the “gentlemen in the parlour,” and people cannot put a name or tag to us. And precisely because we are clarified in this way, and freed of inessential labels, we have the opportunity to come into contact with more essential parts of ourselves.  Abroad is the  place  where  we  stay  up late,  follow impulse and find ourselves as wide open as when we are in love. We live without a past or future, for a moment at least, and are ourselves up for grabs and open to interpretation We even may become mysterious -to others, at first, and sometimes to ourselves -and, as no less a dignitary than Oliver Cromwell once noted, “A man never goes so far as when he doesn’t know where he is going.”  A1. Match the following.         (2) A B 1) Buddhist A)  Chants 2) Abroad B) free of casts and jobs 3) Hazlitt C) gentlemen in the parlour 4) Iceland D) lunar spaces A2. Write some advantages of traveling in abroad. (2)          Ans: There are some advantages of traveling  a] Opportunity for self-discovery: Traveling allows one to tap into parts of themselves that may be obscured by the daily routine and distractions of daily life. It provides the opportunity to engage in introspection and self-reflection. b] Freedom from labels and expectations: When traveling, people are free from the societal labels and expectations associated with their job, caste, and standing. This allows them to be more open and receptive to new experiences and perspectives. c] Fresh perspective: Traveling to new and unfamiliar places allows one to see the world with fresh eyes, and gain a new perspective on their lives and the world around them. d] Cultivation of inner peace: Spending time in peaceful and quiet environments, such as temples and the emptiness of Iceland, can help cultivate a sense of inner peace and reflection. e] Impulse-driven experiences: Traveling provides the opportunity to follow impulse and experience new things without being held back by the past or future. f] Becoming mysterious: Traveling can make one appear mysterious, both to others and sometimes to themselves. This sense of mystery can lead to a greater sense of adventure and excitement in life. g] Living in the present: Traveling allows one to live in the present moment, and to experience life without the constraints of time. h] No limitations on where you're going: As Oliver Cromwell once noted, "A man never goes so far as when he doesn't know where he's going." The lack of a specific destination can lead to unexpected and enriching experiences.    (Note: Write only main points, Extra description is given only study or to write the answer if the question is askes on that point)   A3.  Explain with examples from the passage that the writer would respect other religion. (2)  Ans: The writer mentions spending "days on end in temples, listening to the chants of sutras" in Tibet, even though they are not a "real Buddhist."
