Its easy and very simple. Go out with a spray bottle on a sunny day. Stand with the sun behind you and spray water into the air. You should see your very own rainbow. These seven colours always appear in the same order. They are red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo (bluish-purple), and violet (purple). A rainbow is made by light bouncing back to you from the inside of raindrops. Ordinary light, like that from a light bulb or from the sun, is called white light. White light is actually a mixture of seven colours. Light bends when it passes through water. Each colour bends a different amount. When white light enters a raindrop, the colours get separated. The white light splits into seven colours that you can see. Rainbow is an arc of light separated into bands of colours that appears when the suns rays are refracted and reflected by drops of mist or rain. The colours of rainbow are conventionally said to be red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. TEXT: Read the text comprehensively! Television is a system of mass communication.

TEXT: Read the text carefully for questions no. 28 to 31! SMS (Short Message Service) is a communications system which exchanges short text messages between mobile telephone devices. The SMS facilitates the development and growth of text messaging. Messages are sent to a Short Message Service Centre which provides a store-and-forward mechanism. It attempts to send messages to their recipients. If a recipient is not reachable, the SMSC queues the message for later retry. Some SMS centres also provide a forward and forget option where message delivery is tried only once. Message delivery is best effort, so there are no guarantees that a message will actually be delivered to its recipient. Delay or complete loss of a message is not uncommon, particularly when sending between networks. Users may choose to request delivery reports, which can provide confirmation that the message has reached the intended recipient. The maximum single text message size is either 160 7-bit characters, 140 8-bit characters, or 70 16-bit characters. Characters in languages such as Arabic, Chinese, Korean, Japanese or Slavic languages (e.g. Russian) must be encoded using the 16-bit UCS-2 character encoding. Larger content (known as long SMS or multipart or segmented SMS) can be sent using multiple messages, in which case each message will start with a user data header (UDH) containing segmentation information. Long messages are often billed as equivalent to multiple SMS messages. Complete the following paragraph with suitable words!
