Pada 4 Disember 1945, baginda telah ditabalkan menjadi Raja Perlis dan sekali gus menjadi pemerintah negeri tersebut. Selama 55 tahun negeri Perlis berada di bawah pemerintahan beliau. Pada tahun 1955, baginda telah menyambut Jubli emas pemerintahannya dan dipercayai bahawa baginda merupakan raja yang paling lama memerintah sesebuah negeri di dunia.

Baginda mendapat pendidikan awal di Sekolah Menengah Arau, Perlis dan telah melanjutkan pelajaran di Penang Free School, Pulau Pinang. Pada tahun 1940, baginda telah dilantik menjadi Majistret di Kangar dan pada tahun 1941 baginda telah ditukarkan ke Kuala Lumpur. Selepas Perang Dunia Kedua tamat, baginda telah ditabalkan sebagai Raja Perlis bagi menggantikan ayahandanya yang telah mangkat.

Baginda sangat mengambil berat akan pendidikan anak-anak negeri Perlis. Banyak sumbangan yang telah disalurkan oleh baginda dalam melihat kemajuan dalam bidang pendidikan. Oleh itu, baginda telah mengambil inisiatif dengan menubuhkan “Tabung Derma Pelajaran Negeri Perlis” sehingga tertubuhnya Sekolah Inggeris Derma. Sekolah ini merupakan sekolah Inggeris yang pertama di negeri Perlis.

Pada tahun 1960, baginda telah dipilih oleh Majlis Raja-raja Melayu sebagai Yang di-Pertua Agong Ketiga. Apabila Persekutuan Tanah Melayu berubah menjadi Persekutuan Malaysia pada 16 September 1963, baginda dan permaisurinya, Tuanku Budriah menjadi yang di-Pertua Agong serta Raja Permaisuri Agong Malaysia yang pertama.

SECTION – A

READING – 20 MARKS

Q.1 a) Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow:

1. The most spectacular and in many ways the most fundamental social change that the Gandhian movement effected in India is in respect of the position of women. Undoubtedly, women in ancient India enjoyed a much higher status than their descendents in the 18th and 19th century. From the earliest days, there have been many notable women in India – poets, scholars, administrators, social reformers and leaders of various movements. In fact, the 18th century produced women like Ahalyabai Holkar whose administration of Indore state was considered a model for all of India.

2. Today’s woman is a highly self directed person, a life to the sense of her dignity and the importance of her functions in the private domestic domain and the public domain of the world of work. It has been brought to light across the globe that no enduring solution of society’s most threatening social, economic, environmental and political problems could be found without the participation and empowerment of women. The 1995 World Summit for Social Development had also emphasized the pivotal role of women in eradicating poverty and mending the social fabric. The Constitution of India had conferred on women equal rights and opportunities – political, social, educational and of employment. However, oppressive traditions, superstitions, exploitations and stereo typed mind sets keep them away from enjoying the rights and opportunities bestowed on them. One of the major reasons is the lack of literacy and awareness among women. Education is the main instrument through which we can narrow down the prevailing inequality and accelerate the process of economic and political change in the status of women.

3. The role of women in a society is very important. Women’s education is the key to a better life in the future. A World Bank study says that educating girls is not a charity; it is good economics. The report also goes on to state that the economic and social returns on investments in education for the girls are substantial and probably greater than those for boys. As the female population forms nearly half of the national population, the poor performance on the front of female literacy considerably affects the human development index of the nation. Society would progress only if the status of women is respected and the presence of an educated woman in the family would ensure education of the family itself. Hence, education and empowerment of women are closely related.

1. Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow:

 Yoga Tourism opens up tremendous opportunities as it is for everyone. People of all generations and fitness levels can find classes suitable for them.The practice of Yoga also helps one to achieve peace and tranquility through focused training. At the time when job responsibilities, kids’ needs, spouse’s demands, and never-ending to-do lists can easily overwhelm us, yoga teaches us to relax, de-clutter our minds, and create a space for ourselves where we can be happy and at peace with ourselves.

There are many forms of ‘yoga’ one can pursue, depending on one’s preferences and lifestyles. There is relaxation yoga where breathing exercises and meditation techniques are stressed upon; there is power yoga for those who are looking to increase their body’s stamina and resistance power; there is prenatal yoga for pregnant women, and there is Hatha Yoga for beginners who want to learn basic postures at a comfortable pace.. We need to remember that 'Yoga' for Indians and 'Yoga' for foreigners is not the same thing. Many American yoga students, for example, are fiercely independent and self-reliant. For some, yoga is a not-too-strenuous way to lose fat effectively, or reduce their stress. For others, yoga might mean doing strenuous postures to become more flexible, firm up their abs, or attain slender muscularity. Others might be looking for ways to reverse the onset of lifestyle diseases like diabetes and arthritis. This commodification of 'Yoga' is crucial today, if you want to earn from it.

June 21 has created an opportunity for the entire Indian travel and tourism fraternity to boost inbound tourism to the country. Yoga tours are already being conducted regularly, with clientele from France, USA, Germany, Russia, and several other countries. With the World Yoga Day branding, the Yoga is now known all over the world, and the niche tourism products in the field with dedicated Yoga packages are bound to do well in such a scenario.

Yoga tourism is not only good for ashram services sector but also for hospitality sector in general. Besides foreign tourists, corporate houses and companies from India and abroad popularly opt for Yoga sessions for their employees as offsite training programmes. It presents several more opportunities for those who are working for the tourism industry.

Here is a word of caution though. Despite all the branding and marketing efforts, Yoga tourism can only pick up when we offer quality to the tourists. India has an edge over countries because the trips to India are moderately priced and offer several budget options too. It is also believed to be the country where roots of Yoga lie. If you can build upon premise, and offer world-class services and real results to wellness tourists, you are bound to do well as Yoga tourism operator, trainer or service provider.

1.1 On the basis of your understanding of the passage answer the following:--

a. Would you want to visit a country for yoga tourism? Why or why not?
b. What drawbacks do you think yoga tourists might find in India?
c. How are power yoga and relaxation yoga different?
d. How can yoga tourism be encouraged in India?
e. Find words from the passage which mean the same as the following:-

i calmness
ii capable of bending

2 Read the story given below and answer the questions that follow:-

I was driven one afternoon in November, 1896, by a rain of such chilling copiousness that any shelter was preferable to exposure. Now I found myself upon an apparently abandoned road which I had chosen as the shortest cut to Arkham, overtaken by the storm at a point far from any town, and confronted with no refuge save the antique and repellent wooden building which blinked with bleared windows from between two huge leafless elms near the foot of a rocky hill. Distant though it is from the remnant of a road, this house none the less impressed me unfavorably the very moment I espied it.
