Q2. A few days ago, an appeal to save perhaps the country’s first Sanskrit newspaper Sudharma ________________ went viral on social media. The appeal had limited impact — it led to donations of only about Rs 2 lakh, which is not enough to buy a colour printer needed to print 3,000 copies of the paper. So, with no advertisers or patronage, the entirely Sanskrit newspaper based in Mysore is barely able to sustain itself today. “It is only through printing posters, wedding cards, etc. that we get the money to run Sudharma,” said Jayalakshmi, 48, who runs it along with her husband GV Sampath.

Since there’s only this top-of-the-line version, it is fairly expensive. But on the upside, 3G is always free. You can download books anywhere -the 3G works in over 100 countries. And you never pay anything for it. Some of the other awesome features remain: all books _______________.

While it’s fun to listen to your favourite music as you travel to work, the commute could be well utilised on things for self-improvement and upgrade. Unfortunately, for those who self-drive a two-wheeler there are no concrete solutions ____________________just to stay safe in the crazy traffic.

Q5. Text messages have often been cited as being a pain in the neck, but even the Trai’s yeoman service towards alleviating this misery by finally activating the Do Not Call registry and restricting outgoing SMSes to 100 a day will clearly not have any effect on the medical affliction called ‘text neck’.
