Category: EnglishRead the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below it. Certain words are given in bold to help you locate them while answering some of the questions.
The narrative of Dersu Uzala is divided into two major sections set in 1902 and 1907 that deal with separate expeditions which Arseniev conducts into the Ussuri region. In addition, a third time frame forms a prologue to the film. Each of the temporal frames has a different focus, and by shifting them Kurosawa is able to describe the encroachment of settlements upon the wilderness and the consequent erosion of Dersu’s way of life. As the films opens, that erosion has already begun. The first image is a long shot of a huge forest, the trees piled upon on another by the effects of the telephoto lens so that the landscape becomes an abstraction and appears like a huge curtain of green. A title informs us that the year is 1910. This is as late into the century as Kurosawa will go. After this prologue, the events of the film will transpire even farther back in time and will be presented as Arseniev’ recollections. The character of Dersu Uzala is the heart of the film, his life the example that Kurosawa wishes to affirm. Yet the formal organization of the film works to contain, to close, to circumscribe that life by erecting a series of obstacles around it. The film itself is circular, opening and closing by Dersu’s grave, thus sealing off the character from the modern world to which Kurosawa once so desperately wanted to speak. The multiple time frames also work to maintain a separation between Dersu and the contemporary world. We must go back farther even than 1910 to discover who he was. But his narrative structure has yet another implication. It safeguards Dersu’s example, inoculates it from contamination with history, and protects it from contact with the industrialized, urban world. Time is organised by the narrative into a series of barriers, which enclose Dersu in a kind of vaccum chamber, protecting him from the social and historical dialectics that destroyed the other Kurosawa heroes. Within the film, Dersu does die, but the narrative structure attempts to immortalize him and his example, as Dersu passes from history into myth.
We see all this at work in the enormously evocative prologue. The camera tilts down to reveal felled trees littering the landscape and an abundance of construction. Roads and houses outline the settlement that is being built. Kurosawa cuts to a medium shot of Arseniev standing in the midst of the clearing, looking for a grave. A man passing in a wagon asks him what he is doing, and the explorer says he is looking for a grave. The driver replies that no one had died here, the settlement is too recent. These words enunciate the temporal rupture that the film studies. It is the beginning of things (industrial society) and the end of things (the forest), the commencement of one world so young that no one has had time yet to die and the eclipse of another, in which Dersu has died. It is his grave for which the explorer searchers. His passing symbolizes the new order, the development that now they are all gone. The man on the wagon replies they were probably chopped down when the settlement was built, and he drives off. Arseniev walks to a barren, treeless spot next to a pile or bricks. As he moves, the camera tracks and pans to follow, revealing a line of freshly built houses and a women hanging her laundry to dry. A distant train whistle is heard, and the sounds of construction in the clearing vie with the cries of birds and the rustle of wind in the trees. Arseniev pauses, looks around for the grave that once was, and murmursdesolately, “Dersu.” The image now cuts farther into the past, to 1902, and the first section of the film commences, which describes Arseniev’ meeting with Dersu and their friendship.
Kurosawa defines the world of the initially upon a void, a missing presence. The grave is gone, brushed aside by a world rushing into modernism, and now the hunter exists only in Arseniev’s memories. The hallucinatory dreams and visions of Dodeskaden are succeeded by nostalgic, melancholy ruminations. Yet by exploring these ruminations, the films celebrates the timelessness of Dersu’s wisdom. The first section of the film has two purposes: to describe the magnificence and inhuman vastness of nature and to delineate the code of ethics by which Dersu lives and which permits him to survive in these conditions. When Dersu first appear, the other soldiers treat him with condescension and laughter, but Arseniev watches him closely and does not share their derisive response. Unlike them, he is capable of immediately grasping Dersu’s extraordinary qualities. In camp, Kurosawa frames Arseniev by himself, sitting on the other side of the fire from his soldiers. While they sleep or joke among themselves, he writes in his diary and Kurosawa cuts in several point-of-view shots from his perspective of trees that appears animated and sinister as the fire light dances across their gnarled, leafless outlines. This reflective dimension, this sensitivity to the spirituality of nature, distinguishes him from the others and forms the basis of reflective dimension, this sensitivity to the spirituality of nature, distinguishes him from the others and forms the basis of his receptivity of Dersu and their friendship. It makes him a fit pupil for the hunter.According to the author, which of these statement(s) about the film is (are) correct ?
Correct
The opening line from paragraph 3,”Kurosawa defines the world of the initially upon a void, a missing presence. The grave is gone, brushed aside by a world rushing into modernism, and now the hunter exists only in Arseniev’s memories” explain that the film begins with the absence of its main protagonist. Option (c) is thus the right choice.

The first section of the film has two purposes: to describe the magnificence and inhuman vastness of nature and to delineate the code of ethics by which Dersu lives and which permits him to survive in these conditions. When Dersu first appear, the other soldiers treat him with condescension and laughter, but Arseniev watches him closely and does not share their derisive response. Unlike them, he is capable of immediately grasping Dersu’s extraordinary qualities. In camp, Kurosawa frames Arseniev by himself, sitting on the other side of the fire from his soldiers. While they sleep or joke among themselves, he writes in his diary and Kurosawa cuts in several point-of-view shots from his perspective of trees that appears animated and sinister as the fire light dances across their gnarled, leafless outlines.

Category: EnglishRead the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below it. Certain words are given in bold to help you locate them while answering some of the questions.
The narrative of Dersu Uzala is divided into two major sections set in 1902 and 1907 that deal with separate expeditions which Arseniev conducts into the Ussuri region. In addition, a third time frame forms a prologue to the film. Each of the temporal frames has a different focus, and by shifting them Kurosawa is able to describe the encroachment of settlements upon the wilderness and the consequent erosion of Dersu’s way of life. As the films opens, that erosion has already begun. The first image is a long shot of a huge forest, the trees piled upon on another by the effects of the telephoto lens so that the landscape becomes an abstraction and appears like a huge curtain of green. A title informs us that the year is 1910. This is as late into the century as Kurosawa will go. After this prologue, the events of the film will transpire even farther back in time and will be presented as Arseniev’ recollections. The character of Dersu Uzala is the heart of the film, his life the example that Kurosawa wishes to affirm. Yet the formal organization of the film works to contain, to close, to circumscribe that life by erecting a series of obstacles around it. The film itself is circular, opening and closing by Dersu’s grave, thus sealing off the character from the modern world to which Kurosawa once so desperately wanted to speak. The multiple time frames also work to maintain a separation between Dersu and the contemporary world. We must go back farther even than 1910 to discover who he was. But his narrative structure has yet another implication. It safeguards Dersu’s example, inoculates it from contamination with history, and protects it from contact with the industrialized, urban world. Time is organised by the narrative into a series of barriers, which enclose Dersu in a kind of vaccum chamber, protecting him from the social and historical dialectics that destroyed the other Kurosawa heroes. Within the film, Dersu does die, but the narrative structure attempts to immortalize him and his example, as Dersu passes from history into myth.
We see all this at work in the enormously evocative prologue. The camera tilts down to reveal felled trees littering the landscape and an abundance of construction. Roads and houses outline the settlement that is being built. Kurosawa cuts to a medium shot of Arseniev standing in the midst of the clearing, looking for a grave. A man passing in a wagon asks him what he is doing, and the explorer says he is looking for a grave. The driver replies that no one had died here, the settlement is too recent. These words enunciate the temporal rupture that the film studies. It is the beginning of things (industrial society) and the end of things (the forest), the commencement of one world so young that no one has had time yet to die and the eclipse of another, in which Dersu has died. It is his grave for which the explorer searchers. His passing symbolizes the new order, the development that now they are all gone. The man on the wagon replies they were probably chopped down when the settlement was built, and he drives off. Arseniev walks to a barren, treeless spot next to a pile or bricks. As he moves, the camera tracks and pans to follow, revealing a line of freshly built houses and a women hanging her laundry to dry. A distant train whistle is heard, and the sounds of construction in the clearing vie with the cries of birds and the rustle of wind in the trees. Arseniev pauses, looks around for the grave that once was, and murmursdesolately, “Dersu.” The image now cuts farther into the past, to 1902, and the first section of the film commences, which describes Arseniev’ meeting with Dersu and their friendship.

Question 91 of 100
91. Question
Category: EnglishIn the following passage there are words highlighted in bold, each of which has been numbered. These numbers are printed below the passage and against each, four words are suggested, one of which fits the blank appropriately. Find out the appropriate word in each case. If the word highlighted in bold does not require any replacement, choose (E) as your answer.
In the noxious (91) terrorist attack in Somalia, an explosives-laden truck collided with a fuel tanker in Mogadishu, killing more than 300 people and injuring many more. Mogadishu has seen a number of strikes (92) and suicide bombings on “soft targets”, mostly hotels and restaurants, and military targets orchestrated by the terrorist group al-Shabaab in recent years, but none assedative (93) as this one. The Islamist organisation has not yet claimed responsibility for the attacks but government spokespersons have blamed the al-Qaeda-allied group. A weakened Al-Shabaab has managed to exhilarate (94) itself as a guerrilla force lately. Reports suggest that it has not claimed responsibility for Sunday’s attacks as yet because of the scale of the toll, as it did not accelerate (95) the truck colliding with a fuel tanker. If it is indeed al-Shabaab’s doing, it would signal aseditious (96) reversal. Somalia must immediately work towards building a sense of civic discord (97) among the various clans in the country and use the popular inclination (98) following the bombing to isolate al-Shabaab and its backers. Al-Shabaab had retreated from Mogadishu in August 2011 following bland (99) joint offensives led by the African Union Mission in Somalia (AMISOM) and the Somalian federal government. The increased involvement of Kenyan and Ethiopian military forces, as part of AMISOM, in the accord (100) had pushed al-Shabaab fighters even further into interior Somalia, particularly to rural areas in the south.Correct
