Q.7
Read the passage and answer the question:
The helicopter is one of my favourite toys. Compared to aeroplanes, it differs in three key ways:
Have you ever watched an aeroplane take off? It must accelerate down a runway before lifting into the air. A helicopter, however, can ascend vertically without moving forward.
An aeroplane cannot fly backwards, but a helicopter can.
Helicopters can hover — that is, remain stationary in midair — a manoeuvre aeroplanes cannot perform.
One major advantage of helicopters is that they do not require runways or large airport spaces. They help extinguish fires by dropping water — made possible by their ability to hover — and are used to lift logs harvested from forests. Police departments deploy helicopters to pursue suspects and locate vehicles from the air. In medical emergencies, they airlift patients quickly, bypassing traffic congestion.
An aeroplane should _________________________.

Q.10
Read the passage and answer the question:
Mr. Chang must realise that the Prime Minister was addressing the entire nation — not just intellectuals. In his hour-long speech, the PM spoke on topics he believed would resonate with the public and inspire them to act on his appeals. On this front, he scored a perfect hundred.
The PM strongly criticised the societal tendency to be lenient with male children compared to female children. I am optimistic this message will strike a chord with parents across the board, encouraging them to teach their sons to behave responsibly. Every other issue he raised directly impacts the general public, and the PM clearly sought positive action from citizens.
Regarding internal security, defence, and space — what direct contribution could ordinary citizens make if the PM had detailed his plans in these areas? There is little the public can do directly in the fields of defence and space. However, on internal security, the PM indirectly addressed the issue by urging all sections of society to reject all forms of violence, including communal strife. Most internal security challenges would be resolved if communities lived together in peace and harmony. As for defence and space, the PM has — and will continue to — engage directly with experts and stakeholders in those sectors, which he has done very effectively so far. Moreover, revealing strategic plans in critical areas like defence carries significant risk.
