1. Read the following passage and answer the questions: [5 × 3 = 15]
One of the foremost American entertainers of the first part of the
twentieth century was a part-Cherokee Native American named Will
Rogers (1879-1935). Rogers was born in territory that would later
become the state of Oklahoma and spent much of his youth riding horses
and mastering the use of the lariat. These skills were refined into an
entertainment act based on fancy rope tricks interspersed with humorous
anecdotes and witty remarks. Travelling widely as a vaudeville
entertainer, Rogers had become a star act by 1915 with the Ziegfeld
follies, a famous stage show. In 1918 his stage skills led to a new career
as a movie actor both in silent films and later in the "talkies".
In the early 1920s, Rogers embarked on another profession, this
time as a journalist writing weekly newspaper columns that reached
millions of people worldwide. Beginning in 1930 he also broadcast
regular radio addresses. What distinguished his journalistic approach was
his firsthand experience of ordinary people and places and a wry sense of
humor, often debunking established figures and institutions. This poking
fun on the serious side of life, combined with an optimistic homespun
philosophy, gave him immense popular appeal. He became a national and
international celebrity and acquired the unofficial status of a goodwill
ambassador during his travels in Europe. He also had a strong
philanthropic streak and devoted money and time to charitable causes.
Rogers also had a keen interest in flying. He often wrote about the
development of aviation and friends with trailblazing flyers such as
Charles Lindbergh. Another pioneering aviator, Wiley Post, invited
Rogers to join him in testing the viability of a commercial route between
the United States and Asia. Tragically, both Rogers and Post were killed
when their plane crashed in northern Alaska. Roger's death was felt
deeply throughout the United States and the public displays of mourning
were heartfelt and widespread. The epitaph by his tomb is taken from one
of his numerous quotable remarks and reminds us of the essential dignity
of the man. It reads, "Never Met A Man I Didn't Like".

1. Read the following passage and answer the questions below. [5 × 3 = 15]
Andrew Quinn, a systems manager at a toy company is starting to learn
more about his fellow employees than he had ever wanted to know. He has
found that one co-worker has a weakness for herbal remedies, another likes
jokes about women drivers and another checks the lottery numbers each
morning.
The Manager knows these things because about a month ago, Mr. Quinn
installed a new piece of software on the computer network that enables
him to monitor not only every website that his employee browse, but every
e-mail that they send or receive. With a few clicks, he can open a window
on a computer screen and see the sender, recipients and subject headings of
each message. These details help him figure out exactly what is straining
his e-mail server.
In fact, Ritvik toys is one of hundreds of companies that are looking at
worker’s correspondence on a routine basis. And the number of companies
regularly doing so is soaring. Managers give variety of reasonings for
installing such software. Some lookout oversize e-mail attachment that clog
networks. Others seek to dissuade and discourage employees from using
their systems for personal activities. And others want to make sure that
employees are not sending message that disturb or hurt others.
Questions:
a) What weaknesses did Andrew Quinn find about his co-workers?
b) How did they misuse their time?
c) How did Mr. Quinn monitor the activities of his co-workers?
d) How did the Managers of different companies explain the situation?
e) What should the office workers do during the office hours?
