Q.3 Read the passage and make notes on it and also give a suitable title .
The heart is one of the most vital components of the human body . The heart of the human body has the continuous job to keep oxygen - rich blood flowing through the body . All the body's cells need a constant supply of oxygen , particularly in the brain . The brain cells live only four to five minutes after the oxygen is cut off and death comes to the entire body . Heart disease can result from damage to the heart muscles , the valves or the pacemaker . If the muscle is damaged , the heart is unable to pump properly . If the valves are damaged , blood cannot flow normally . Dr John Gibbon of U.S.A. developed a machine in 1953 that could take over temporarily from the heart . Surgeons had the chance to repair or replace a defective heart . Many patients have had plastic valves inserted in their hearts when their hearts were faulty . Many people are now being kept alive with tiny battery operated pacemakers .
The suitable title is humble body

My Hobby
Our hobbies determine what we would become when we grow up. Someone who loves singing might decide to become a singer in the future. It is not mandatory to choose a hobby that we want to take on as a career option. Sometimes, hobbies are meant for fun and relaxation. There are plenty of ways to pursue a hobby.
We can enrol ourselves in special classes that will teach us more about our interests. We can choose to do this at our home in our free time. No matter what hobby we choose, it should always make us feel relaxed. There is no point in following a hobby if it adds to our stress. You can even look up on the internet to find tutorials that would teach you more about your area of interest.
