HOLIDAY HOMEWORK CLASS : Xii science

ENGLISH
A. ‘Those who prepare green wars,
Wars with gas, wars with fire,
Victory with no survivors,
Would put on clean clothes
And walk about with their brothers
In The Shade, doing nothing'. (1×4=4)

I) What does the poet mean by Green Wars?

II) What activity should the warmongers not indulge in? Instead what should they do?
III) Describe the different kinds of War mentioned in the above lines.
IV) What kind of victory will it be?
B. Cases of older children bullying younger ones have become alarmingly common,
especially in a school environment. How would you connect it to William Douglas
experience at the YMCA swimming pool? What is the mindset of modern youth that is
reflected through such incidents? Which values do you think must be imbibed in order to
change? (6)

C. Explain the importance and value of the parting message by French teacher on the day of
“The Last Lesson”. Cite some examples from the text to support the explanation. (6)
D. Why don‟t the people in Firozabad organise themselves into a cooperative? (3)
E. What is the „misadventure' that William Douglas refers about? (3)
F. Why has the mother been compared to the „late winter‟s moon'? (3)
G. How will the huge silence interrupt the sadness of men? (3)
H. Franz was surprised when he entered his class. Why? (2)
