Metro is the pride of Delhi. It’s a boon for commuters. It links many important places of Delhi. It has reduced traffic loads from the roads .It is very environment friendly also. I love traveling in fully air conditioned coaches. It has made journey very comfortable and jam-free. Metro personnel are very efficient. You’ll feel cleanliness, security and discipline everywhere in metro system. Metro network is very well planned. Many metro stations are near railway stations and important bus terminals. At some metro stations we can see big malls also. Metro ride is a real enjoyment.

Newspaper is very useful in our life. They introduce us with important national and international incidents. They widen our outlook. They enrich our knowledge. They deepen our understanding. A man will become “frog of a well “without newspaper.

            Newspapers also act as a medium between government and common people. By newspaper we can communicate with Government, put pressure on it and give suggestions. Newspapers are wonderful means of building public opinion.
            Newspapers are also helpful in business. We can see adverstiments of all sorts for promoting product. Newspaper also plays a role in entertainment.
Newspapers are true mirror of a society.

One day I was alone at home. My parents were gone in a marriage party. Next day it was my English paper. I have to stay at home. I got up early in the morning. I went on the roof. Cool air was blowing. I did some exercise. It was refreshing. After bath, I sat for study. I read some paragraphs and practiced unseen –passages. My concentration was high.

Q)    Translate following paragraphs into your mother language.

Exercise--1

This problem is growing rapidly in all parts of the city. One can see vendors and hawkers on footpaths especially near metro stations, bus stands and market areas. This compels the pedestrians to move on the roads. Roads are already congested. During office hours this creates a big problem. It slows down the speed of traffic and sometimes causes jams .Many accidents also happen due to this.
There are many reports that these encroaches bribe the beat constable and employees of Municipal Corporation. In market areas they also pay shop owners to lay their articles in front of shops. This nexus makes them fearless. But main sufferer is the common man, who can’t fight with them.

Exercise--2

All successful people have hobbies. Hobbies play very important part in our life. Any activity that engages our attention, refresh our mind, entertain us and fill our non-creative hours is called hobby. My hobby is net surfing. I love to discover new websites on various subjects. I keep a record of websites in my dairy. Internet is a reservoir of information. It provides good food for mind. We can expand our knowledge in interested areas and we can also increase our areas of interest. Whenever I find time, I do net surfing. Whole world seems accessible. Knowledge is just a click away. I want to turn my hobby into my profession by fining new avenues of earning on the internet.  

Exercise--3

A society can not prosper without secure and fearless environment. It is the responsibility of police to create such environment. But in our locality it seems that police has joined hand with law-breakers. Incidents of theft are increasing day by day. Chain snatching is common. We are not safe even inside homes. Last week a gang robbed a jeweler in full day light.
This condition is further deteriorated by two wine shops- one in the market and another near bus stand. These shops are hub of anti-social elements. We cannot go outside after sunset. Women are facing many threats. Atmosphere is not safe. We don’t know what impression it is imprinting on the innocent minds of our children.
