IV. Summarise the given passage to one third of its length. Give a
suitable title:
(1 x 15 = 15)
"Cloudy, with scattered showers throughout the day'. What does
one do when the weather forecast on the air tells us this early in the
morning? I don't know what others do or don't do, I take my umbrella
with me to work.
For some of us it is interesting and useful to know the day's
weather in advance. It helps us get ready for the day. But for some people
this is much more important. Farmers can plan their work in the fields
better and housewives can time their shopping or washing to make it
more fruitful. And all this depends on the accuracy of our weather
forecasts.
A lot of work takes place in weather stations in different parts of
the world to give us as accurate a forecast as possible. The smaller
weather stations report their observations on in temperature, barametric
pressure, cloud conditions, etc. to the central weather stations. These
observations are then analysed by expert meteorologists who make
predictions on weather at regular intervals. It is not every forecast that
comes true of course, on all days, but most do.
V. Letter Writing :
(1 x 15 = 15)
Write a letter to your friend congratulating her/him on her/his having
