(1-4) Thomas Alva Edison lit up the world with his invention of the electric light. Without him, the
world might still be a dark place. However, the electric light was not his only invention. He also
invented the phonograph, the motion picture camera, and over 1,200 other things. About every
two weeks he created something new.
Thomas A. Edison was born inMilan,Ohio, on February 11, 1847. His family moved toPort
Huron,Michigan, when he was seven years old. Surprisingly, he attended school for only two
months. His mother, a former teacher, taught him a few things, but Thomas was mostly selfeducated. His natural curiosity led him to start experimenting at a young age with electrical and
mechanical things at home.
When he was 12 years old, he got his first job. He became a newsboy on a train that ran
betweenPort HuronandDetroit. He set up a laboratory in a baggage care of the train so that he
could continue his experiments in his spare time. Unfortunately, his first work experience did not
end well. Thomas was fired when he accidentally set fire to the floor of the baggage car.
Thomas then worked for five years as a telegraph operator, but he continued to spend much of
his time on the job conducting experiments. He got his first patent in 1868 for a vote recorder
run by electricity. However, the vote recorder was not a success. In 1870, he sold another
invention, a stock-ticker, for $40,000. A stock-ticker is a machine that automatically prints stock
prices on a tape. He was then able to build his first shop inNewark,New Jersey.
Thomas Edison was totally deaf in one ear and hard of hearing in the other, but thought of his
deafness as a blessing in many ways. It kept conversations short, so that he could have more
time for work. He called himself a two-shift man because he worked 16 out of every 24 hours.
Sometimes he worked so intensely that his wife had to remind him to sleep and eat.
Thomas Edison died at the age of 84 on October 18, 1931, at his estate inWest Orange,New
Jersey. He left numerous inventions that improved the quality of life all over the world.
71. Thomas Edison did things in this order:
a.he became a telegraph operator, a newsboy, and then got his first patent
b.he became a newsboy, got his first patent, and then became a telegraph operator
c.he got a patent, became a telegraph operator, and then became a newsboy
d.he became a newsboy, a telegraph operator, and then got a patent
72.Edisonconsidered his deafness:
a. a disadvantage
b. a blessing
c. something from a priest
d. a necessity

73. Of all the inventions, __________ was probably the most important for civilization.
a. the vote recorder
b. the stock ticker
c. the light bulb
d. the motion picture camera
74. The main idea of this passage is:
a. Thomas Edison was always interested in science and inventions, and he invented
many important things.
b. Thomas Edison could not keep a job.
c. Thomas Edison worked day and night on his experiments.
d. Deaf people make good inventors because they can focus without the distraction of spoken

(75-82)Gallaudet University currently does not allow students to keep pets in their dorm rooms.
Exceptions are made only for service animals such as guide dogs and hearing ___1___. These
working dogs provide services that benefit their student owners. But other kinds of pets can be
___2___ to students too. Pets should be allowed to live in the dorms because they can help
students reduce stress and learn responsibility.
College life is very demanding and students often feel a lot of pressure and tension. Pets could
help students relieve ___3___ in many ways. For example, playing with pets could give
students a study break. Walking a dog or playing with a cat would allow the students to relax
their body and mind. When the students return to their studying, they would feel ___4___ and
ready to work again. Pets could also relieve social stress or homesickness. A dog or cat could
provide companionship and affection when students have problems with their friends or miss
home. Sometimes it is easier to talk to a pet than to a person. Talking about problems helps
students figure out ___5___. Pets would have a positive influence on the stress of college life.
College is also a time when students need to learn to be responsible. Caring for pets could help
students learn ___6___ in several ways. For example, pets need to be fed and watered on a
regular schedule. Some pets also need to be taken out while others need their litter box or cage
cleaned. Students would learn to schedule time for these chores between their classes and
activities. New students are often used to having their parents do things for them. But parents
do not live on college campuses with their children. Therefore, caring for a pet is something
students would have to do ___7___. They would learn how to solve problems on their own and
how to follow through with their commitments. Having pets would teach students to handle more
adult responsibilities.

In conclusion, living with pets would offer many ___8___ toGallaudetUniversitys students. Pets
would help students reduce stress and learn adult responsibility. I believe that Galladudet
should consider changing its policies to allow students to keep pets in their dorm rooms.

Directions(Q. 110) Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given
below it. Certain words are printed in bold to help you to locate them while answering some of the
questions.
Once upon a time in a village, there lived six blind men. In spite of their blindness, they had
managed to educate themselves. Seeking to expand their knowledge, they decided to visit a zoo
and try out their skills in recognizing animals by their touch. The first animal they came across, as
soon as they entered the zoo, was an elephant.
As the first man approached the elephant, the elephant waved its trunk, and the man felt something
brush past him. Managing to hold on to it, he felt it, and found something long and moving. He
jumped back in alarm, shouting Move away ! This is a snake ! Meanwhile, the second man had
moved closer, and walked right near its legs. As the man touched the thick, cylindricalshaped legs,
he called out Do not worry. These are just four trees here. There is certainly no snake ! The third
man was curious hearing the other two, and moved forward. As he walked towards the elephant, he
felt his hand touch one of the tusks. Feeling the smooth, sharp ivory tusk, the man cried out Be
careful ! There is a sharp spear here. The fourth man cautiously walked up behind the elephant, and
felt its swinging tail. Its just a rope ! There is nothing to be afraid of ! he said. The fifth man had
meanwhile reached out and was touching the huge ears of the animal. I think all of you have lost
your sense of touch ! he said. This is nothing but a huge fan! The sixth man did not want to be left
out. As he walked towards the elephant, he bumped into its massive body, and he exclaimed, Hey !
This is just a huge mud wall! There is no animal at all ! All six of them were convinced that they
were right, and began arguing amongst themselves.
Wondering what the commotion was all about, the zoo keeper arrived at the scene, and was
surprised to see six blind men surrounding an elephant, each of them shouting at the top of their
voice ! Quiet he shouted out, and when they had calmed down, he asked, Why are all of you
shouting and arguing in this manner ? They replied, Sir, as you can see, we are all blind. We came
here to expand our knowledge. We sensed an animal here, and tried to get an idea of its
appearance by feeling it. However, we are not able to arrive at a consensus over its appearance,
and hence are arguing. Can you please help us and tell us which of us is right ?

The zoo keeper laughed before answering, My dear men, each of you has touched just one portion
of the animal. The animal you see is neither a snake, nor any of the other things you have
mentioned. The animal in front of you is an elephant ! As the six men bowed their head, ashamed of
the scene they had created, the zoo keeper said, My dear men, this is a huge animal, and luckily, it
is tame. It stood by calmly as each of you touched it. You are extremely lucky that it stayed calm
even during your argument, for if it had got angry, it would have trampled all of you to death ! He
continued further, It is not enough to gather knowledge, but it is also important to learn to share
and pool your knowledge. Instead of fighting amongst yourselves, if you had tried to put all your
observations together, you might have had an idea of the animal as a whole ! Also, when you cannot
see the entire truth, it is better to go to someone who does know the complete truth, rather than
guess about small parts of it. Such halfknowledge is not only useless, but also dangerous. If you had
come directly to me, I would have helped you identify all the animals without putting you in danger !
The six men apologized to the zoo keeper, and assured him that they had learnt their lesson. From
now on, they would seek true knowledge from qualified people, and would also try to work together
as a team so that they could learn more.
