An Individual’s life is just a __________to the grand history of mankind.

1) preclude 2) prelude 3) proclude 4) persuade

Read the passage given below carefully and answer. Question number 96 to 100
based on it.

Conventional education makes independent thinking extremely difficult.


Conformity leads to mediocrity. To be different from the group or to resist environment is
not easy and is often risky as long as we worship success. The urge to be successful, which
is the pursuit of reward whether in the materials or in the so-called spiritual sphere, the
search for inward or outward security, the desire for comfort - this whole process smothers
discontent, put an end to spontaneity and breed fear; and fear blocks the intelligent
understanding of life. With increasing age, dullness of mind and heart sets in.

In seeking comfort, we generally find a quiet corner in life where there is a


minimum of conflict, and then we are afraid to step out of that seclusion. This fear of life,
this fear of struggle and of a new experience, kills in us the spirit of adventure; our whole
upbringing and education have made us afraid to be different from our neighbor, afraid to
think contrary to the established pattern of society, falsely respectful of authority and
tradition.

Fortunately, there are a few who are in earnest, who are willing to examine our
human problems without the prejudice of the right or of the left; but in the vast majority of
us, there is no real spirit of discontent, or revolt. When we yield uncomprehendingly to the

Not all that glitters is gold. Not all that is white is milk. Not all people who wear
saffron clothes are sages. These age-old sayings hold true even now, especially the last one.
We see a lot of people wearing saffron clothes, but not all of them are sanyasis in the true
sense of the word. A sanyasi is one who guides his followers on the right path.

Recently, I attended the inaugural function of a home for destitute women in


Mysore. In most cases, the women were there because they were either harassed by their
in- laws or tortured by drunken husbands. Owing to their socio-economic conditions, even
the parents of the victims were unable to take them in and care for their hapless children.
There had also been instances when young girls, lured by romance, had run away from

their homes and had been deserted by their lovers after the honeymoon. These girls usually
did not dare return to their parents.

The saying that ‘success has many fathers, but failure has none' is true indeed. We
get to see only the distressed women and their children, while the main cause of their
problems remains hidden in the background. So the victims cannot be blamed altogether.
Often it is circumstances that force them into such drudgery. These women and girls need
to be psychologically strong and determined to face difficulties with courage and go on
with their lives.

96. The main reason for the main cause of their problems remaining hidden is:

(1) people are waiting for it to come out in the open

(2) people don't want to be bothered with others' problems

(3) nobody has tried to expose it

(4) nobody has bothered to find out the real cause

97. The opening sentence Not all that glitters is gold means:

(1) one must not be deceived by appearances

(2) only gold has that unmistakable shine

(3) glitter is the true quality of truth

(4) all metals that shine must necessarily be as good as gold

98. Wearing saffron clothes does not make one a sanyasi is another way of saying:

(1) saffron is not the favourite colour of the sanyasis

(2) saffron must be changed to some other colour

(3) anybody who wears saffron is a sanyasi

(4) saffron must only be worn by true ascetics

Read the passage given below carefully and answer. Question number 96 to 100
based on it.

There is a general consensus that 'International Understanding’ need to be taught as


a separate subject at the school stage as that would add to the curricular load which is
already too heavy. Instead it should be woven into the curriculum and the numerous
opportunities that present themselves while teaching normal school subjects may be
intelligently and imaginatively used by the teacher to promote International
understanding.

The school subjects which can be most profitably used for this purpose are History,
Geography, Civics, Economics, Sociology, Political Science, Social Sciences, Languages as
well as Physical and Life Sciences. However, at the higher education level, international
education can be prescribed as a separate subject of study. In fact, the present situation in
India broadly conforms to this consensus so far as the school stage is concerned.

At the under-graduate and the post-graduate levels, courses of study in subjects like
History, Geography, Economics, political Science, International Relations, International Law
and International Organization have been prescribed by most of the universities and these
contain content which has a direct or indirect bearing on promoting UNESCO ideals.

96. How International Understanding can be taught at the school level?

(1) Through various subjects like History, Civics, Geography, etc.

(2) By giving numerous opportunities to the students.

(3) By combining the subject content with the curriculum.

(4) All of these

Read the passage given below carefully and answer. Question number 96 to 100
based on it.

During the 1850s and 1860s, many people began to experiment with the artistic
possibilities of photography. Landscapes and architecture were popular subjects for early
art photographers. In these two decades, a number of governments commissioned
photographers to make visual records of important buildings and natural features in
various countries. Photographs were taken of the scenery in the American West as well as
many other major landmarks. Some of these pictures were remarkable not only for their
technical excellence but also for the effort involved in taking them.

Some of the most dramatic photographs of the mid-1800s are battlefield scenes. The
photos of the American Civil War (1861-1865) made by Mathew Brady and his assistants
rank among the finest war pictures of all time.

In 1888, Geoige Eastman, an American manufacturer, introduced the Kodak box


camera. The Kodak was the first camera designed specifically for mass production and
amateur use. It was lightweight, inexpensive, and easy to operate. With this invention,
picture taking became a favorite pastime.

The Kodak system also eliminated the need for photographers to process their own
pictures. The Kodak used a roll of gelatin-coated film that could record 100 round
photographs. The plant developed the film, made prints, and then returned the camera
loaded with a new roll of film - The Kodak slogan declared, "You Press the Button, We Do
the Res."

(1) A historian (2) A photographer

(3) A civil war hero (4) A Kodak employee

97. Which of the following is not a subject of commissioned photographers?

(1) Important buildings (2) Landmarks

Read the following passage carefully and answer the question number 96 to 100
given below it:

Now India’s children have a right-to receive at least eight years of education, the
growing question is whether it will remain on paper or become a reality. One hardly
needs a reminder that this right is different from the others enshrined in the
Constitution, that the beneficiary – a six year old child cannot demand it, nor can she or
he fight a legal battle when the right is denied or violated. In all cases, it is the adult
society which must act on behalf of the child. In another peculiarity, where a child’s
right to education is denied, no compensation offered later can be adequate or relevant.
This is so because childhood does not last. If a legal battle fought on behalf of a child is
eventually won, it may be of little use to the boy or girl because the opportunity missed
at school during childhood cannot serve the same purpose later in life. This may be
painfully true for girls because our society permits them only a short childhood, if at all.
The Right to Education (RTE) has become law at a point in India’s history when the
ghastly practice of female infanticide has resurfaced in the form of foeticide. This is
“symptomatic of a deeper turmoil” in society which is compounding the traditional
obstacles to the education of girls. Tenacious prejudice against the intellectual potential
of girls runs across our cultural diversity and the system of education has not been able
to address it.

Read the following passage carefully and answer the question number 96 to 100
given below it:

In any awkward situation or a misadventure, a man with a sense of humour can


take a detached view of it, and laugh at the absurdity. Such laughter, such a sense of
humour is a great relief. The English have it in a marked degree, whereas the French
and the Germans lack it.

Whenever one wonders why this sense of humour is required, one should
consider the reactions of a person with a sense of humour and those who have no
humour, and is either too serious or too sentimental. A man with a sense of humour
looks at the victims of laughter in a sympathetic, loving light, and even if the laugh is
turned against himself, he takes it with detachment, in a sportsman-like spirit.

A sense of humour means a sense of proportion. A wise man has a sense of


proportion. He is not carried away by an exaggerated or a one-sided view, however
exalted it may be. This sense of proportion may be called common sense. A humourist,
in proportion as he is great, is a wise man, a man of sound common sense, and his
laughter is of the highest type. Comedy of the highest type includes, as its soul, this
sense of humour.

The spirit of humour teaches us the important philosophy of acceptance. Instead


of vainly and fleetingly trying to reform the world - 'mould the sorry state of things' -
the humourist accepts the incongruity of the world - the absurdity - and laughs at it, and
enjoys it. As the mystic at the highest moment of his trance, is one with the world,
accepts it, so the humourist at the best, is satisfied with the world, accepts it, and laughs,
and enjoys the very absurdity of it. This laughter of the highest type has naturally a
social value. It opens the eyes of the readers to the incongruity and the absurdity of life
around us.

96. Choose the word with the closest meaning to the word underlined in the
sentence.

The spirit of humour teaches us the important philosophy of acceptance.

(1) to reject (2) to receive

(3) to laugh (4) none

97. A humourist is compared to a mystic because :

(1) He remains detached from others.

(2) He is always in a trance.

(3) He accepts the world as it is.

(4) He tries to change the world.

98. Choose the correct option as per the passage.

'to open the eyes' means :

(I) to blink rapidly (2) to make aware

(3) to make sure (4) to take a quick look

Read the following passage carefully and answer No’s 96 to 100 based on it.

It is very important to remember especially now when we have regained our


freedom from British rule, that it was contact with western ideas that made our own
people wake up and work for a new India. Many great men and women have worked for
the making of the new India in many different ways. They had different ideas of what
the new India should be. Some wanted to reform the Hindu religion by getting rid of
idol-worship, caste and other ideas which were not in the Hindu religion of ancient
times. Swamy Dayanand, who founded the Arya Samaj, had this aim. Others waded to
get rid of old ideas completely and make India a modem country, with the help of
scientific knowledge gained from the west. Some wanted to bring about changes more
slowly, by spreading education through newspapers and schools. But all these people
got their ideas though hearing or reading about the changes which had been taking
place in Europe and America. They got to know about these changes from people who
came to India from the west, first to trade with them, and then to rule over them. They
did not like being ruled over by foreigners, but they could not help seeing that unless
they got the new knowledge which the foreigners had, they would not be able to make a
new India and rule it themselves.

96. How did Indians respond to the foreigners who came to India ?

(1) Indians offered warm hospitality to the foreigners,

(2) Indians isolated themselves from the foreigners

(3) Indians disliked being ruled over by foreigners.

(4) None of the above.

Read the following passage carefully and answer No’s 96 to 100 based on it.

The world had witnessed number of diseases in every decade in which almost every
country suffered and accordingly other countries had to give their hands to get over of that
evil immediately as this might cause to another nation as well. Being very collectively
responsible member of the whole universe every country contributed toward the peace
and prosperity particularly in health section every nation had been as quick as today they
are!

In May 1966, the World Health Organization was authorized to initiate a global
campaign to eradicate smallpox. The goal was to eradicate the disease in one decade.
Because similar projects for malaria and yellow fever had failed, few believed that smallpox
could actually be eradicated but eleven years after the initial organization of the campaign,
no cases were reported in the field. The strategy was not only to provide mass vaccinations,
but also to isolate patients with active smallpox in order to contain the spread of the
disease and to break the chain of human transmission. Rewards for reporting smallpox
assisted in motivating the public to aid health workers. One by one, each smallpox victim
was sought out, removed from contact with others and treated. At the same time, the entire
village where the victim had lived was vaccinated. Today smallpox is no longer a threat to
humanity. Routine vaccinations have been stopped worldwide.

96. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?

1) The World Health Organization

2) The Eradication of Smallpox

3) Smallpox Vaccinations

4) Infectious Diseases

Read the following passage carefully and answer No’s 96 to 100 based on it.

Since the most ancient times India has been not only periodically invaded by greedy
hordes, but also visited by tradesmen and travelers, scholars and sight-seers. Some of them
have written books. The books of these writers have become all the more important
because there are not too many of them, and they have served as rich sources for the
historians. It is especially in this context that observations provided by the great Chinese
writer Hiuen Tsailg became very relevant.

Already in the 7th century, Buddhism was a powerful cultural force among the
educated classes of China. It was common for Chinese pilgrims to come to India, the native
land of the Buddha, to pay their respects to the founder of their religion. Perhaps the most
famous of them all was this gentle observer who has studied and travelled extensively in
China before entering the Indian sub-continent. Being both scholarly and sophisticated, he
was not given to easy praise. Within India itself he traversed deserts and climbed
mountains, stayed in villages and lived in capitals, practiced in monasteries and studied in
universities and spent time in some royal courts as well.

He went to Mathura and Ayodhya, to Prayag and Pataliputra, to Gaya and Kamarupa.
He studied Sanskrit and Pali to delve deeper into Buddhist philosophy and Hindu
traditions. Most important of all, he wrote down in detail his many experiences and
impressions.

96 The purpose of Hiuen Tsang to travel to India was….

(1) to study the influence of Buddhism on Hindu religion.

(2) to spread his religion in India.

(3) to undertake pilgrimage and enhance knowledge.

(4) to study powerful cultural forces in India.

Read the passage carefully and answer the questions (96 to 100)

As everyone knows, bombs have increased in power from the 20-ton chemical
bombs of the early 1940s to the 20-thousand-ton atomic bombs of 1945 and on o he 20-
million-ton hydrogen bombs after 1953. Today’s there are enough hydrogen bombs of the
greatest destructive power (100 million tons) to wipe out all life on our planet. Will we
make even larger bombs in the future? We can if we want to, but even for the most
overwhelming military purposes we do not need to.

We have already reached some sort of limit. How much more dangerous can the
situation get? At the present time, we are very near the edge of death. Every year or two, in
some major international crises- Korea, Suez, Berlin, Cuba, Vietnam, Kashmir- there is a
serious probability of an ‘accident’ that could lead to a nuclear war. Dedicated men have
worked hard and long in each of these situations to avoid a nuclear incident, but we may
not continue to be so lucky. Next time, it may be a nuclear terrorist or a mad man or a
mistaken junior officer or just faulty equipment. It is foolish of us to boast of the decrease in
our death rate and the increase in the length of individual human lives in the 20th century,
as long as this nuclear danger is so uncontrolled. This is the first time in the history of the
human race that babies all babies everywhere have had such a small chance of living to an
old age. We are indeed very near the limit in this danger. This situation cannot continue.
We cannot live very long walking on loose at the edge of a cliff. Either in 10, 20, or 30 years
we fall over the nuclear cliff; or else very soon, before that time runs out, we arrive at an
international understanding and move back from the danger.

Some people talk of yet another possibility: We might have a nuclear war with a few
people surviving by going underground into shelters and mines. But this, even if it could
work, would only temporarily postpone the horrible problem. Do the survivors come out of
the shelters and mines at last to bury, to clean up and to rebuild only to have their
survivors go underground again after a revival of nuclear powers in another 20 years of so?
And then again 20 years after that?

This is obviously not an alternative at all. It is noting more than a refusal to face the
necessity of finally agreeing on a foolproof method of international nuclear control. We
must conclude that if we live and if we work to live, then we still have a chance to survive
and to keep from passing the point of no return. But time is fast running out. It is up to the
men of today, in this present generation, within the very next few years, to permanently
decide: will we, the human race, live or die?

96) The writer warns us against making larger bombs because……….

1) we are already threatened with complete destruction

2) it is highly immoral

3) there is a persistent nuclear crisis in one part of the world or other

4) the bombs already hoarded in the world are sufficiently large.

97) The passage says that as long as the nuclear danger is uncontrolled ___________

1) a junior officer will rescue us

2) we will have to depend on big nations for survival

3) we are at the mercy of such things as faulty machines and mad men

4) more babies will not be born in this world

1) will become a reality in 20 years and every 20 years thereafter

2) can be avoided through an international understanding

3) will be like climbing a cliff

4) will not exist after 10 to 30 years because we will not exist

1) shelters and mines will provide sufficient protection

2) more and more shelters and mines will have to be dug to bury the dead in

3) many people will be able to live in shelters and mines

4) a few people may survive by going underground into shelters and mines

100) Why don’t we need to make bombs more destructive than the ones we already
possess?

1) Because they might use for other business purposes to control the trade.
2) Because the bombs we already possess are destructive enough to wipe out all life
on our planet.

3) Because other giant countries could be the control of such destructive weapons.

4) Because there are many treaties which might get violated.
