Since when have I started calling this' semi-summer the season of watermelon, I do not
know. It has been occurring to me in the last few years, when out of nowhere, suddenly
~home get filled with watermeloJ>at one of the busiest footpath markets, in
Farmgate. The juicy red pyramids that are put to raise the potential customers within one
rarely fail.
Recently, I started getting a similar kind of aura at my campus corridors, as a group of
students of our university were found determined enough to wear red and green
throughout the whole month of March. I found it quite interesting and thought of having a
talk with them.

One fine morning, I found my cubicle filled up with super-fine laughter of the
watermeloned girls. They, however, came up with a humble request to join them by being
a watermelonJ7y~f on any of the weekdays that Iwould prefer; eventually I would end
up at the t.,;L..fS't~;t evening.
rv~
But my first response or rather a query to them was "why"? They seemed a little hurt My
"why?" brought a "just-fell-from-the-sky" expression on their faces, all of them started
talking almost at the same time and my tiny ~9 started filling up with words like---
. C).1h•.'cb.-
freedom, independence, green Bengal, red sun/blood, martyrs --- and 26th March. That
evening, I also noticed that the tailors' are also boiling with 'nationalistic enthusiasm', but
they denied taking any order as they were too busy with sewing the red and greens _
shelwar-kameej-du~atta-PUnjabift. I hope the spirit of Independence will not be trapped
. within the colours only, let).s'surpass the season of watermelon, let us live the spirit
everyday as we grow. I do not know if such enthusiasms are sticky enough to hold on the
attires or not It is cosier to enjoy the evening in a blind lane of Farmgate with a bowl of
watermelon after a hot":long-semi-summer-walk and a fictive-nationalism-talk with my
students ... "'um lovin' it'. Let the watermelon be seasonal only, not nationalism. Amen.
Questions:

anything to do with the "nationalistic enthusiasm"?
(c) "The tailors' are also boiling with 'nationalistic enthusiasm'" - comment on the
tone of the author. Was it a tone of disbelief; or of frustration; or of ridiculation?
(d) Why do you think the author is calling the "semi-summer" comprising March as
"Th~ season of watermelon"?
(e) The last word of the passage is "Amen", which suggests that it is a kind of prayer;
what is the prayer about?

4. Write a precis of the following passage with a suitable title:
Education is the process by. which our mind develops through formal learning at an
institution like school, college or university. It is mental and intellectual training, which
provides opportunities of growth and helps to overcome impediments and obstacles to
progress. Again, the purpose of education is to enlighten the individual and to develop
his/her capacity to the limit. It is also the business of education to train individuals to
make the right choices togo ahead. It ennobles our mind and refines our sensibility. It
also broadens our outlook and helps us become aware of our rights and responsibilities.
According to Newman, education gives a man a clear conscious view of his own opinions
and judgements, a truth in developing them, an eloquence in expressing them and a force
in using them. ~herefore, it is often compared to light, which removes the darkness of
ignorance and helps us distinguish between right and wron~. Julius Nyerere,Presidentof
Tanzania, in 1974 said at an international conference that the primary purpose of
education is the liberation of man from the restrictions of habits and attitudes, which limit
!
his humanity. He further said, education should promote humanity and universal brotherhood,
and that it could be used as a catalyst for a change for the better. How right he was!

(b) Reduce the following quadratic form q to the canonical form and find the rank, index
and signature 6f q. Also write down the corresponding equations of transformations.
SECTION-B
There are FOUR questions in this Section. Answer any THREE.
5. (a) Find the standard matrix for the transformation T on R3, where T is the composition
of a rotation of 45° about y-axis, followed bya reflection about yz-plane, followed by a
dilation with factor k = J2. Then find T(2, - 5, 8) using the standard matrix. . (18)
(b) Consider the set P2 of all polynomials of degree 2 and the set S = {Ph P2, P3} where,
PI = 1 + x, P2 = 1 + x2, P3= X + x2. Is the set S a basis for P2? If so, then find the
coordinate vector of the polynomial p(x) = 2 - x + x2 relative to the basis S. (17)

(b) Determine whether the following subsets are subspaces ofR • If so, then find a basis
8. (a) Let T: P2 -+ P3 be the linear transformation defined by T(P(x»= x p(x - 3), that is
T(a + bx + cx2) = x(a + b(x - 3) + c(x - 3i). Find the m~trix for T with respect to the
standard bases B = {I, X, x2} and B' = {I, X, x;x3}. If X = p(x) is any element in P2, then verify
