Directions (23-30): Read the passage and answer the questions that follow:
SA
Russia’s allegation that Ukraine was planning to launch a so-called dirty bomb shows how
dramatically the Ukraine conflict has escalated. Russia’s Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu held talks
with many of his global counterparts, including Rajnath Singh, accusing Ukraine of potential “nuclear
terrorism”. A dirty bomb is not a nuclear bomb but a conventional explosive device with radioactive
N
materials, the explosion of which could turn swathes of land uninhabitable for decades.
Ukraine and its western backers have rejected the Russian allegations, saying the Russians, who
BA
have suffered setbacks, are making unfounded claims for a false flag attack. It is difficult to ascertain
what is going on behind the fog of a full-scale war, but the talk of dirty bombs and nuclear terrorism
does not bode well.
Ever since the U.S.’s nuclear bombing of Japan in 1945, the world has largely treated the nuclear
A
option as __________. Even in 1962, when the Soviet Union and the U.S. were on the brink of
conflict, their leaders managed to end the crisis amicably through dialogue. But unfortunately,
Vladimir Putin’s threat of using all means available to him to protect his country and Joe
H
Biden’s warning of a “nuclear Armageddon” are tantamount to normalising the nuclear option
in the middle of a conflict that is in an escalatory spiral.
IS
What is more surprising is that even as the war is steadily deteriorating, there is no conscious effort
by any side to start a dialogue. Russia says it is ready for talks but has not given any concrete
proposals, and its offer for talks cannot be trusted, especially after it announced the annexation of
IM
four partially controlled Ukrainian regions.
Ukraine says it will not hold talks with Russia as long as Mr. Putin is in power and that it intends to
fight till all Ukrainian regions are liberated, including Crimea. Ukraine’s western backers say they
N
would continue to support Ukraine’s resistance “as long as it takes”. As all sides take maximalist
positions, escalation is creating its own dynamic, taking the whole world hostage. Eight months of war
have already created economic and humanitarian disasters. And there are greater fears of a direct
conflict between Russia and NATO, two nuclear forces. What more do the stakeholders of this war
want before they actually begin serious talks?They should realise that unchecked escalation with an
open possibility of a Russia-NATO war would be catastrophic for the whole world. The stakes are
higher than their geopolitical goals. The rhetoric on nuclear attacks and retaliation should stop
immediately and Russia, Ukraine and the West should begin talks to end the conflict. The alternative
would be cataclysmic.

SOL The tone of the lines surrounding the blank is negative, indicating that nuclear bombs are

SOL Only statement 2 can be made out from the given part. Refer to: Vladimir Putin’s threat of
using all means available to him to protect his country and Joe Biden’s warning of a “nuclear
Armageddon” are tantamount to normalising the nuclear option
Statement 1 is incorrect, as there are no indications of the war becoming less severe or coming to an
end. Abatement means ending or subsiding. On the contrary, the war is getting worse, as inferred

from the line: a conflict that is in an escalatory spiral.
Statement 3 is incorrect as the given part doesn’t mention Ukraine.
BA
25.4
SOLStatements 2 and 3 are true.
Statement 2. Refer to: It is difficult to ascertain what is going on behind the fog of a full-scale war.
A
This line corroborates the fact that it is difficult to find out the intentions of the parties in the war
regarding the allegations made.
H
Statement 3. Refer to: What is more surprising is that even as the war is steadily deteriorating, there
is no conscious effort by any side to start a dialogue.
Eight months of war have already created economic and humanitarian disasters. And there are

They should realise that unchecked escalation with an open possibility of a Russia-NATO war would

From these lines, we can conclude that, for now, the parties in the war are unwavering in their current
positions and haven’t taken any steps towards resolving this conflict and putting the fears of a nuclear
war at rest.
N
Statement 1 is not true as the stances of both the leaders have been different. While in 1962,
the leader held talks and put an end to the conflict, the leader now has not given any concrete
proposals regarding talks and has displayed disparity in words and actions.
Refer to: But unfortunately, Vladimir Putin’s threat of using all means available to him to protect his
country and Joe Biden’s warning of a “nuclear Armageddon” are tantamount to normalising the
nuclear option in the middle of a conflict that is in an escalatory spiral.
Russia says it is ready for talks but has not given any concrete proposals, and its offer for talks
cannot be trusted, especially after it announced the annexation of four partially controlled Ukrainian

SOL The author gives information at the start of the passage. In the middle, he shows concern by

asking "What more do the stakeholders of this war want before they actually begin serious talks?" (if
nuclear war starts, consequences will be very harmful)

In the last, the author gives some suggestions.
Vindictive: wanting or trying to hurt somebody without good reason (wrong)

SOLBode well: to show or suggest that future developments or events will be good or favorable.
Sentences 1 and 3 correctly use the phrase. Sentence 2 has, however, used the word in a way that
