SBI PO Model Test Paper with Answers

Directions(Q.1-10):
Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given elow it. !ertain words have
een printed in old to help you locate the" while answering so"e of the questions.
#ccording to the $nited %tates &nviron"ental 'rotection #gency ($%&'#)( plastic ags are a etter
option than paper ags fro" the environ"ent)s point of view. *any studies co"paring plastic versus
paper show that plastic ags have less net environ"ental effect than paper ags( requiring less
energy for transport( production and recycling and ecause of all these( plastic generates less
greenhouse gases. +hey cause less air and water pollution and can get co"pressed to a s"all si,e in
landfills. 'lastic ags are sterile and thus are a etter option for the transportation of eatales and
"edicines.
-owever there is another side of using plastic. 'lastics are "anu-factured fro" petroleu". +his rings
a host of other issues e.g. destruction of haitat. +heir "anufacturing invo-lves che"icals( "any of
which have not een sufficiently tested for their to.icological i"pact on hu"ans and ani"als.
&.acerating the prole" is that science has only advanced to detect plastic co"ponents in hu"an
odies and then lin/ it to hu"an ail"ents and diseases.
0here science has een unale to help is that it has largely failed to invent a solution to the ha,ards
caused y it. *a/ing the situation dis"al is the fact that the ha,ard is closer than it appears. +eflon(
'1!( 'olyethylene( polysty-rene in utensils and various silicones in hair and ody care products
accu"ulate in the ody and lead to serious diseases.
'lastic producing co"panies are often che"ical co"-panies or susidiaries of che"ical co"panies(
oth with poor trac/ records when it co"es to their adherence to regulatory co"pliance and their
willingness to perfor" to.i-cological analysis on the products that they "a/e.
'lastics often drain co"ponent che"icals( including ha,ardous che"icals when te"perature changes
eyond a certain point.
2t is for this reason that to.icologists do not reco""end storing very cold food in plastics or heating
food ("icrowa-ving especially) in plastics. #lso( plastics are durale "aterials. +hus( they are hard to
eli"inate once used and create tre"endous waste. 0hile so"e co""on plastics can e recycled the
vast "a3ority cannot e recycled.
%cientists suggest the use of 4io-degradale plastics as an alternative to this persisting prole".
+hese are the plastics that can deco"pose in the natural environ"ent. 4iodegra-dation of plastics can
e achieved y enaling "icroorganis"s in the environ"ent to "etaoli,e the "olecular structure of
plastic fil"s to produce an inert hu"us-li/e "aterial that is less har"ful to the environ-"ent. +hey
"ay e co"posed of either io-plastics( which are plastics whose co"ponents are derived fro"
renewale raw "aterials( or petroleu"-ased plastics. +he use of io-active co"pounds co"pounded
with swelling agents ensures that( when co"ined with heat and "oisture( they e.pand the plastic)s
"olecular structure and allow the io-active co"pounds to "etaolise and neutrali,e the plastic.
1arious countries have een adopting different "ethods to discourage the use of plastic. 5rowing
awareness in the $6 of the prole"s caused y indiscri"inate use of plastic ags is encouraging
retailers to reward custo"ers who ring their own ags or who reuse or recycle e.isting ags. +his is
called the )5reen 4ag %che"e). 2n other countries retailers have stopped providing free plastic ags
with pur-chases and have een selling cloth ags for very "ini"alistic prices.

10. #lthough har"ful at e.tre"e te"perature( why does $%&'# reco""end transport of eatales and
