Questions 37 39 refer to the following text.

It all happened about two months ago. I was in the girls’ changing room belting out my favorite song when my music teacher walked in. She commented that I had a mellifluous voice but I did not think much about it. The next thing I knew, she had signed me up for the Teachers’ Day Singing Contest. When I first learnt about it, I was flabbergasted and protested immediately.

On the big day, my heart skipped a beat when I heard my name being called. Biting my lip nervously, I strode onto the stage gingerly, my hands clammy from perspiration. God, please help me!” I prayed desperately. However, when I saw the countless pairs of eyes staring at me, the rubber band of stress in me snapped.

I had always been an awfully shy person who disliked any form of attention. I hardly spoke up in class or participated in group activities. Thus, it was not surprising that my history teacher of two years did not even know my name. Being in the limelight stressed me out, so asking me to perform on stage in front of the whole school was as good as telling me to jump off a plane without a parachute.

Standing on the stage, I looked at the audience with mute horror. The music had started playing but I could not utter a single word. An irrational fear overwhelmed me, causing my heart to palpitate so fast that it might just leap out from my mouth. I had never felt more nervous and embarrassed in my life before. How I wished the ground would open up and swallow me.

I took a deep breath and asked the judges if I could start again. Perhaps out of pity, they agreed readily. The familiar music played once more. Shutting my eyes, I blocked out all negative thoughts in my mind and sang my heart out. To my surprise, the audience were so blown away that they gave me a rapturous ovation. Happiness bubbled up inside me as I walked off the stage. Although I could not see my own face, I knew I was glowing in delight.



37. Who wrote the story?
A.  A timid student
B.  A talented singer
C.  A music teacher
D.  A singing judge

B.  She felt totally embarrassed.
C.  The audience were all amazed.
D.  She was frightened to look at the audience.

A.  The audiences
B.  The teachers
C.  The judges
D.  The songs

Questions 40 42 refer to the following information. (factual report: plants, animals, etc.)

Conference calls have become one of the most preferred means of communication for businesses, especially to keep in touch with clients, investors, colleagues and other stakeholders who might be spread across different parts of the world. Conferencing services are not just for businesses but also for ordinary individuals who may want to connect with a group of friends or family members.

Conference call service providers host something called a conference bridge, which is a server that can connect multiple telephone lines at the same time. It is the bridge that callers dial into to get connected to the teleconference. All you need is an ordinary telephone  line  to  start telephone  conferencing with  any  number  of  people  located anywhere in the world. Most teleconferencing service providers have the technology to allow up to 99 participants on a single call. If you need a larger event, that is also possible with assistance from the service provider.

The main advantage is that you can cut down on the travel expense and time to a considerable extent. A voice conference can also be recorded and played back at a later date. There are also facilities such as participant polling and surveys through the call. Conference calling helps save time, money as well as reduce the greenhouse gas emissions due to air and auto travel. Modern technology also allows high level of data security for the calls.

I am writing to you on the recommendation of David McLean, Assistant Manager in your Securities Department. He told me that you often employ people from other countries on one- year temporary contracts, and I am writing to enquire about the possibility of such a post.

I am at present employed by the International Bank in Hanover, in their Securities Department.

Dear Bram,

It has been a long time since we exchanged letters. In this letter I am giving you an exhilarating experience of my camping trip.

I, along with six schoolmates, went camping to Bir in Himachal Pradesh. It was a seven-day trip. We went to Delhi by train and after a day's stay left for Bir early in the morning by bus and reached there by evening. We camped out in the woods. The nights were mostly clear and we enjoyed the beauty of the moon, the stars and the sky, It was wonderful to see the night sky, as there was not an iota of pollution in the hill area. We also sat around the campfire and told stories and jokes.

We went for long walks and also went trekking. The natural beauty of this place is really worth seeing. There are pine trees all around Bir and a small river flows, winding its way through the valleys and hills. As this place is very calm and quiet, we could very clearly hear the chirping of birds and movement of the water.

It was really a great time for all of us. I wish you were with us. When you come to Ahmedabad next time, we shall plan a similar camping trip again. Pay my regards to your parents.

Yours sincerely, David
