Q2. Blood is a fluid connective tissue. Blood consists of a fluid medium called plasma in which the cells are
suspended. Plasma transports food, carbon dioxide, and nitrogenous wastes in dissolved form. Oxygen is
carried by the red blood corpuscles. Many other substances like salts, are also transported by the blood. We
thus need a pumping organ to push blood around the body, a network of tubes to reach all the tissues, and a
system in place to ensure that this network can be repaired if damaged. The force that blood exerts
against the wall of a vessel is called blood pressure. This pressure is much greater in arteries than in veins. The
pressure of blood inside the artery during ventricular systole (contraction) is called systolic pressure and
pressure in the artery during ventricular diastole (relaxation) is called diastolic pressure. The normal systolic
pressure is about 120 mm of Hg and diastolic pressure is 80 mm of Hg.

Q3. COVID-19 is a respiratory disease, one that especially reaches into your respiratory tract, which includes
your lungs. Now, think of your respiratory tract as an upside-down tree. The trunk is your trachea or windpipe.
It splits into smaller and smaller branches in your lungs. At the end of each branch
are tiny air sacs called alveoli. The new coronavirus travels down your airways. The lining can become
irritated and inflamed. In some cases, the infection can reach down into your alveoli.
i. What is the function of alveoli?
a) This is where SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19 finally affects.
b) This is where plasma, proteins, and blood cells escape in the tissues
c) This is where oxygen goes into your blood and carbon dioxide comes out.
d) Alveoli carry fat and drain excessive fluid back into the blood.
ii. Your blood oxygen level indicates how much oxygen your red blood cells are carrying. High blood
oxygenation plays an essential role in ensuring that your muscles, brain, and other organs receive the
energy they need to function properly. That's why it is so important to measure your current level and
determine whether it is within an acceptable range.
Why is it important to measure your current oxygen level?
a) To know how much blood is flowing
b) To know how much oxygen is flowing in the blood.
c) To know how your brain is working
d) To know the heart rate
iii. The lungs are the organ most commonly affected by COVID-19. If large parts of the lungs are affected,
people struggle to absorb enough oxygen and are admitted to hospital. Another severe effect is acute
respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) – also known as “wet lung”. This sees severe inflammation spread
quickly throughout the lungs. People who develop this may need mechanical ventilation in an intensive care
unit, sometimes for a prolonged period. COVID-19 has a further, unusual effect on the body. Compared to
other respiratory viruses, it causes marked clotting in the small blood vessels of the lungs and other organs.
How are the lungs affected by COVID-19?
A. blood clotting
B. Lack of oxygen
C. Severe inflammation
Now choose the correct option.
a) A and B only
b) B and C only
c) None of these
d) A, B, and C or either of these
iv. Haemoglobin is an iron-containing respiratory pigment that carries oxygen through red blood cells. The
presence of hemoglobin gives a metallic taste to the blood. Haemoglobin is an intracellular protein that
acts as a primary vehicle for transporting 97% of oxygen in the blood. This is not true about hemoglobin.
a) It is a respiratory pigment.
b) It has a high affinity for oxygen and carbon dioxide.
c) It is present in RBCs.
d) Its deficiency causes anemia.
v. In the given picture, A represents
Page 5 of 11
a) Rings of cartilage which ensure that the air passage does not collapse while going into the lungs.
b) Diaphragm which contracts and flattens upon inhalation.
c) Alveoli where the exchange of gases can take place.
d) Fine hairs for air filtration.
Q4. Blood is a fluid connective tissue that helps in the transportation of nutrients to all parts of the body. It
consists ofplasma, a colorless fluid that helps in the transportation of food, gases, nitrogenous wastes, etc. It
also prevents coagulation of blood inside blood vessels and blood cells. Blood cells are of three types RBCs
(contains haemoglobin), WBCs, and platelets. Below Table X shows the range of haemoglobin in the blood a
normal person should have:
Observe the table and find out who is suffering from low levels of hemoglobin.
a) John and his wife
b) John’s wife and his son

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.
Q1. Who was Frederic Sorrieu?
Q2. What does Statue of Liberty carry in her hands?
Q3. Give characteristic features of the first print of Frederic Sorrieu`s painting.

Zehn Millionen Deutsche haben es schon getan, fünf Millionen tun es immer wieder: Sie rufen
einen Fernsehsender an und bestellen ein Produkt. Sie tun genau das, was der freundliche Herr im
Fernsehen gesagt hat: „Rufen Sie uns an und bestellen Sie dieses wunderschöne Produkt!“ Richtig,
wir reden über Einkaufen im Fernsehen, neudeutsch auch „Homeshopping“ genannt. Früher hatte
diese Art des Einkaufens kein gutes Image, aber die Zeiten haben sich geändert. Seit zehn Jahren
ist der Wirtschaftszweig Homeshopping stark gewachsen – jedes Jahr um 50 Prozent. Im letzten
Jahr hat das Tele-Geschäft zum ersten Mal einen Umsatz von einer Milliarde Euro gemacht. Täglich
kann man auf diesen Fernsehkanälen 24 Stunden lang Kosmetik, Schmuck, Haushaltsgeräte oder
Reisen kaufen, immer nett präsentiert von lächelnden Moderatoren. Doch wer kauft im Fernsehen
ein? Die meisten Käufer beim Homeshopping sind weiblich, verheiratet und nicht mehr ganz jung.
Das Durchschnittsalter liegt bei 53 Jahren. Gemütlich zu Hause im Sessel einkaufen – das kann man
natürlich auch im Internet. Immer mehr junge Bundesbürger nutzen das Internet für einen Bummel
durch Online-Kaufhäuser. Das beliebteste Produkt beim Online-Einkauf sind Bücher. 43 Prozent
der Käufer haben in den letzten zwölf Monaten Bücher per Internet bestellt. Auf dem zweiten Platz
folgen CDs mit 34 Prozent, auf dem dritten Platz Angebote von Auktionsfirmen wie eBay.
Beantworte die Fragen:
1. Wie ist die Tendenz beim Homeshopping? Wie viele Deutsche kaufen im Fernsehen ein?
2. Was kann man im Fernsehen kaufen?
3. Welche Kunden kaufen im Fernsehen ein? Bei welchem Alter ist Homeshopping beliebt?
4. Wer kauft im Internet ein? Welchen Vorteil bringt der Online-Einkauf dem Kunden?
5. Welche Produkte sind beim Online-Einkauf beliebt? Nenne zwei Produkte.

Gut oder Günstig ?
Großes Testessen für Schulkantinen in Köln Lehrer, Schüler und Eltern probieren in vielen Schulen
in Köln Alternativen zum bisherigen Kantinenangebot und geben Noten von 1 bis 6 für Aussehen,
Geschmack und Qualität der neuen Gerichte.
Jeder glaubt, dass Kinder und Jugendliche Pommes und Pizza lieben, also eher die fetten, nicht sehr
gesunden Gerichte. Aber das stimmt nicht. Auf den Fragebögen der Testesser sieht man, dass
gesunde Gerichte wie Karotten oder Kartoffelsuppe den Schülern ebenso gut schmecken wie
Pommes oder Nudeln mit Soße. Nur frisch müssen die Zutaten sein, gut gekocht und schön serviert.
, sagt auch Rosemarie Gassner, Direktorin von der Gutenbergschule. Da helfen uns die ehrlichen
Antworten unserer Testesser sehr. Und für gutes Essen zahlen die meisten Eltern gern als nur
günstig.
Beantworte die Fragen in 2- 3 Sätze :
1. Wo wird das Testessen gemacht ? 1
2. Welche Gerichte sind bei den Kindern und Jugendlichen beliebt ? 2
3. Wann essen die Kinder gesunde Gerichte ? 2
4. Wie heißt die Direktorin der Schule ? Was sagt sie dazu ? 2
5. Wie können die Testesser helfen ? 1
6. Was ist das Motto von der Schule ? Was wollen die Eltern ? 2

Sketch a rough outline of your semi-abstract landscape painting on the provided sketching paper. Pay
attention to composition and the arrangement of elements. Use a pencil for this task.
Using acrylic colors, create a semi-abstract landscape painting based on your sketch. You can choose any
landscape scene as your subject but focus on representing it in a semi-abstract style. Consider using
techniques such as simplification of forms, exaggeration of colors, and experimentation with
brushstrokes.
Present your completed painting neatly and professionally. Mount it on the provided art board or frame it
appropriately. Ensure that your name and class are clearly written on the back of the painting.
Write a short reflection on your painting process. Discuss the artistic choices you made, the challenges
you faced, and what you learned from this experience. Your reflection should be thoughtful and
demonstrate your understanding of semi-abstract landscape painting.
