Total Marks: 20
Section A: சரியான பதிலைத் தேர்ந்தெடு (Choose the correct answer) [5 மதிப்பெண்கள் - ஒவ்வொன்றும் 1 மதிப்பெண்]
1. Answer: B) "நன்றி நண்பா!"
- Explanation: When someone gives you a gift, it is polite to say "thank you." "நன்றி" means "thank you" and "நண்பா" means "friend" (vocative case). This shows gratitude and respect. Option A ("எனக்கு வேண்டாம்" - "I don't want it") is rude. Option C ("இது என்ன?" - "What is this?") is not polite as a first response. Option D ("வேறு ஒன்று வேண்டும்" - "I want something else") is demanding and ungrateful.
- Marking: Award 1 mark for the correct letter.
2. Answer: B) பேசுவதை நிறுத்தி ஆசிரியரின் பாடத்தைக் கேட்க வேண்டும்.
- Explanation: In class, when the teacher looks at you while you are talking, it is a signal to stop talking and pay attention. This shows respect for the teacher and the learning environment. Option A (talk loudly) would be disrespectful. Option C (laugh at your friend) is inappropriate. Option D (run outside) is not acceptable classroom behaviour.
- Marking: Award 1 mark for the correct letter.
3. Answer: A) "அம்மா, இன்று பள்ளியில் ஒரு வேடிக்கையான விஷயம் நடந்தது."
- Explanation: When starting a conversation to share news, it is natural to begin with a greeting and then introduce the topic. This sentence politely gets your mother's attention and tells her you have something interesting to share. Option B ("அம்மா, உனக்கு என்ன வேண்டும்?" - "Amma, what do you want?") is abrupt and not a good way to start sharing news. Options C and D are unrelated to sharing a school event.
- Marking: Award 1 mark for the correct letter.
4. Answer: B) "இந்தப் பேனா எவ்வளவு?"
- Explanation: When buying something, it is polite to ask for the price using a respectful question. "இந்தப் பேனா எவ்வளவு?" means "How much is this pen?" This is a standard and polite way to inquire about the price. Option A ("இதைக் கொடு" - "Give this") is a command and is impolite. Option C ("எனக்கு இது பிடிக்கும்" - "I like this") does not ask for the price. Option D ("வேண்டாம்" - "Don't want") is not a request.
- Marking: Award 1 mark for the correct letter.
5. Answer: B) "அடுத்த முறை நீ நிச்சயம் வெல்வாய்."
- Explanation: When a friend loses a game, it is kind to encourage them. This sentence means "Next time, you will definitely win." It shows support and friendship. Option A ("நீ நன்றாக விளையாடவில்லை" - "You didn't play well") is critical and unkind. Option C ("நான் வென்றேன்" - "I won") is boastful. Option D ("விளையாடுவதை நிறுத்து" - "Stop playing") is not helpful.
- Marking: Award 1 mark for the correct letter.
