Section B : Literature Component (15 marks) Poem Leisure What is this life if, full of care, We have no time to stand and stare. No time to stand beneath the boughs And stare as long as sheep or cows. No time to see, when woods we pass, Where squirrels hide their nuts in grass. No time to see, in broad daylight, Streams full of stars, like stars at night. No time to turn at Beautys glance, And watch her feet, how they can dance. No time to wait till her mouth can Enrich that smile her eyes began. A poor life this if, full of care, We have no time to stand and stare. William Henry Davies

Section C : Summary (10 marks) Read the article below and answer the question that follows.

We all worry. Most of the time worrying is a normal human behaviour that helps us to think clearly and protect our loved ones, but sometimes worrying gets out of control and the sense of anxiety it creates can leave us feeling stressed. Here are a few tips to help you stop worrying. An old saying says that a problem shared is a problem halved. So never worry alone. The more you look at a problem on your own, the worse it can seem to be. One of the best treatments for worrying is having good friends that you can talk to openly. Physical exercise is one of the best ways of reducing anxiety. Exercising your body releases the chemicals in the brain that help calm you down. Exercise also helps you sleep better.Sleep is the very best tonic for overcoming worry. The worst part of worrying is it can create negative thoughts. Learn to turn negative thoughts into a positive mindset. This technique teaches you to look at things in a different kind of way. If worrying is becoming serious and affecting your quality of life, seek help from your doctor or a counsellor. (Adapted from Just English, Vol 2 Issue 2, 2005)

Write a summary on ways to overcome worrying. Your summary must: not be more than 60 words, including the 10 words given below be in continuous writing (not in note form) be written in one paragraph Use your own words as far as possible without changing the original meaning. Begin your summary as follows: There are several ways to help a person stop worrying...
