The comforting aura of childhood favourites was necessary to tide me over this strange time, and I recalled the rapturous hours I had spent with the books in the past. As I riffled through a few pages, I was entranced by the familiar worlds of exploration they opened up. So, I sat and read through the evergreen novels again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a young reader, my favourite novels involved secret passageways, majestic palaces, rolling mountains, rushing water, cosy cottages, and daring children. Unfortunately, my reality, then and now, remains quite different.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, I dream of heather, bramble, lakes in the middle of hidden mountains, creepy houses, and stark moors, the isolated settings in nature, and kind friends to travel with, while I\u2019m caught in a reality that is defined by its isolation and lack of exploration. And I wonder if I\u2019ll still crave the isolation once we return to a state of normality or if I\u2019ll be more grateful for the bustling streets I had previously scorned, and appreciative of more people, and yes, even the sun that I cannot even see from the confines of my home on many days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the past, reading the book would help me travel with valiant Julian, sensible Dick, scaredy-cat Anne, and admirable George and Timmy the dog in their boat to Kirrin Island, thrilling over the hidden well and the clanking dungeon chains. This time, however, I considered how our current existence is similar to life on an isolated island. As we wage our battle against this invisible robber, the virus, my sometimes failing courage was soothed by reading about 12-year-old George sitting paralysed in one spot, hearing the ominous footsteps of the smugglers echo on the cold stone flags. Her determination to dodge or confront her would-be attackers, despite her fear, is something I remind myself of today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Persistence and pluck in the face of undeniably distressing circumstances are necessary during these times. And emulating the qualities that the protagonists in Blyton\u2019s mystery and adventure series possess can pay off. Making the best of an unexpected situation has been the hallmark of Blyton\u2019s mysteries and adventures, and they have taught me how to overcome them with what is at hand, to keep persevering despite all odds, to leap into uncertainty, and trust that one will be delivered. So, while I cannot follow suspects, jangle rusty locks on doors, or tap against crumbling brick in real life, I can certainly tap into my intuition and chase leads on topics of interest to ensure that I am better equipped to deal with any new twists life (and the world) might throw my way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Questions:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Question 8:<\/strong> Refer to the line from the passage: \u201cUnfortunately, my reality, then and now, remains quite different.\u201d What can we infer from the above lines?<br>(1) The reality the author lives in does not match her dreams.<br>(2) Author is more aware of reality now than she was as a child.<br>(3) The reality the author lives in contradicts Blyton\u2019s adventures.<br>(4) The reality the author lives in now is different from her childhood.<br>(5) More than one option is correct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Question 9:<\/strong> Which of the following line(s) best describes 12-year-old George\u2019s characteristic that inspired the author?<br>(1) George had a dauntless spirit and that inspired the author to fight her inner monsters.<br>(2) George was not afraid of any situation and was always ready to confront her would-be attackers.<br>(3) George fought her attackers even though she was paralysed and that inspired the author to fight her attackers as well.<br>(4) George was afraid but she chose to fight her fear to confront the ones who were about to attack her.<br>(5) None of the above<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Question 10:<\/strong> The author compares the lockdown with which of the following(s)?<br>I. Being trapped in a hidden well with dungeon chains.<br>II. Being trapped on an isolated island.<br>III. Being trapped in a dream that contradicts reality.<br>(1) Only I<br>(2) Only II<br>(3) Only III<br>(4) Only I and III<br>(5) Only II and III<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Question 11:<\/strong> As per the author, what has\/have been the hallmark of Blyton\u2019s mysteries and adventures?<br>I. The author was motivated to overcome an unexpected situation with the resources at hand.<br>II. They taught the author to make the best of an unexpected situation.<br>III. The author learnt to keep working hard even if he is in a tight spot.<br>(1) Only I<br>(2) Only II<br>(3) Only I and II<br>(4) Only II and III<br>(5) All I, II, and III<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Question 12:<\/strong> Which of the following is the main idea of the passage?<br>(1) The passage discusses the influence of Blyton\u2019s books on the children of the current generation.<br>(2) The passage focuses on the idea of how to spend one\u2019s time during the lockdown.<br>(3) The passage elucidates the idea of how inspiration can be drawn from the characters in Blyton\u2019s books to overcome today\u2019s harsh realities.<br>(4) The passage revolves around the correlation between Blyton\u2019s mysteries and adventures and the current reality.<br>(5) The passage depicts the author\u2019s love for Blyton\u2019s books from her childhood to present.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Question 13:<\/strong> The passage is most likely extracted from:<br>(1) A journal of paediatrics<br>(2) A literary magazine<br>(3) An editorial<br>(4) A biography<br>(5) A book review<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Question 14:<\/strong> Which of the following is similar in meaning to \u2018entranced\u2019 as used in the passage?<br>(1) Beguiled<br>(2) Charred<br>(3) Bored<br>(4) Ingested<br>(5) Ramified<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Question 15:<\/strong> Which of the following is closest in meaning to the word \u2018emulating\u2019 as used in the passage?<br>(1) Imitating<br>(2) Ratifying<br>(3) Insinuating<br>(4) Accentuating<br>(5) Exerting<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-16018d1d wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-background-color has-text-color has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/practicemock.com\/?next=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.practicemock.com%2Fpricing%2Fmarketing%2Ffiles%2Fpdf%2Freading-comprehension-answers.pdf&amp;ref=12019\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Download PDF for Answers with Solutions<\/strong><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">SBI Clerk Free English Topic Test &amp; Other Links<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to score full marks in Reading Comprehension, you will need to master this topic.
