Q18)
Light is a form of energy which induces sensation of vision to our
eyes. It becomes visible when it bounces off on surfaces and hits
our eyes. The phenomenon of bouncing back of light rays in the
same medium on striking a smooth surface is called reflection of
light.
If parallel beam of incident rays remains parallel even after
reflection and goes only in one direction is known as regular
reflection. It takes place mostly in plane mirrors or highly polished
metal surfaces. The mirror outside the driver side of a vehicle is
usually a spherical mirror and printed on such a mirror is usually
the warning "vehicles in this mirror are closer than they appear."

CASE-BASED QUESTIONS
1.Read the source given below and answer the questions that follow:
Frederic Sorrieu prepared a series of four prints visualizing his dream of a world made up
of ‘democratic and social Republics’, as he called them. The first print of the series shows
the peoples of Europe and America – men and women of all ages and social classes –
marching in a long train, and offering homage to the Statue of Liberty as they pass by it.
Artists of the time of the French Revolution personified Liberty as a female figure. She
bears the torch of Enlightenment in one hand and the Charter of the Rights of Man in the
other. On the earth in the foreground of the image lie the shattered remains of the symbols
of absolutist institutions. In Sorrieu’s utopian vision, the peoples of the world are grouped
as distinct nations, identified through their flags and national costume. Leading the
procession, way past the Statue of Liberty, are the United States and Switzerland, which
by this time were already nation-states. France, identifiable by the revolutionary tricolour,
has just reached the statue. She is followed by the peoples of Germany, bearing the
black, red and gold flag.
Answer the following MCQs by choosing the most appropriate option:
a. Who was Frederic Sorrieu?
1.French artist
2.German Artist
3.Italian Artist
4.British Artist
Q2.Read the extract given below and answer the questions that follow:
In 1956, an Act was passed to recognise Sinhala as the only official language, thus
disregarding Tamil. The governments followed preferential policies that favoured Sinhala
applicants for university positions and government jobs. A new constitution stipulated that
the state shall protect and foster Buddhism. All these government measures, coming one
after the other, gradually increased the feeling of alienation among the Sri Lankan Tamils.
They felt that none of the major political parties led by the Buddhist Sinhala leaders was
sensitive to their language and culture. They felt that the constitution and government
policies denied them equal political rights, discriminated against them in getting jobs and
other opportunities and ignored their interests. As a result, the relations between the
Sinhala and Tamil communities strained over time. The Sri Lankan Tamils launched
parties and struggles for the recognition of Tamil as an official language, for regional
autonomy and equality of opportunity in securing education and jobs. But their demand for
more autonomy to provinces populated by the Tamils was repeatedly denied. By 1980s
several political organisations were formed demanding an independent Tamil Eelam in
northern and eastern parts of Sri Lanka.
1. What is the moral reason behind power sharing?
A. It gives absolute power to the government
B. It gives absolute power to the people.
C. It is the very spirit of democracy
D. It ensures development.
2. Which is the official language of Sri-Lanka?

B. Tamil
C. Sinhala
D. None of these
3. Sri-Lanka emerged as an independent country in----
A.1956
B.1948
C .1947
D.1951
Q3. Read the extract given below and answer the questions that follow:
Besides seeking more income, one-way or the other, people also seek things like equal
treatment, freedom, security, and respect of others. They resent discrimination. All of
these are important goals. In fact, in some cases, these may be more important than more
income or more consumption because material goods are not all that you need to live.
Money, or material things that one can buy with it, is one factor on which our life depends.
But the quality of our life also depends on non-material things. Consider an example: If
you get a job in a far-off place, before accepting it you would try to consider many factors,
apart from income, such as facilities for your family, working atmosphere, or opportunity to
learn. In another case, a job may give you less pay but may offer regular employment that
enhances your sense of security. Another job, however, may offer high pay but no job
security and also leave no time for your family. This will reduce your sense of security and
freedom. Similarly, for development, people look at a mix of goals. It is true that if women
are engaged in paid work, their dignity in the household and society increases. However, it
is also the case that if there is respect for women there would be more sharing of
housework and a greater acceptance of women working outside. A safe and secure
environment may allow more women to take up a variety of jobs or run a business. Hence,
the developmental goals that people have are not only about better income but also about
other important things in life.
