प्रश्न1 - यिम्नयिखखि गद्ािंर् को पढ़कर पूछे गए प्रश्नोिं के उत्तर दीयिए- (1x4=4)
उपिास रखना केिल धावमणक विवध-विधान या कमणकां ड का ही अं ग नहीं है । उपिास-व्रत भारतीय संस्कृवत के पूर्ण
स्वास्थ्य के सूत्र हैं । ऋतु -पररितणन के समय व्रत इसवलए रखे जाते हैं वक बदलते मौसम में कई वकस्म की बीमाररयााँ
आती हैं । बीमाररयों से लड़ने की रोग-प्रवतरोधक शक्ति तभी प्राप्त होगी, जब शारीररक और मानवसक शुद्धता होगी।
इसी से जीिनी-शक्ति भी प्राप्त होती है , वजससे बल ि बुक्तद्ध का बराबर संतुलन बना रहता है ।उपिास के दौरान शरीर
के पाचन-संस्थान को पू र्ण रूप से विश्राम वमलता है तथा शरीर में विद्यमान पुराने खाद्य अिशेष और दू वषत पदाथण नष्ट
होकर बाहर वनकल जाते हैं । गलत खाद्य पदाथण ही विजातीय ्रव्य यानी विष का काम करते हैं । इस विष को जब शरीर
रोग द्वारा वनकालने का प्रयत्न करता है तो भूख स्वतः समाप्त हो जाती है । अतः उस समय उपिास करना अवनिायण हो
जाता है । भोजन लेने से तीव्र वनष्कासन वक्रया रुक जाती है । भूख न रहने पर भोजन न वकया जाए तो पू र्ण रूप से
शारीररक सफाई होकर रोग का कारर् जड़ से समाप्त हो जाता है । उसके पश्चात् वनयवमत तथा उपयुि आहार दे ने पर
रोग के लौटने की आशंका नहीं रहती।

कदावचत सीधापन संसार के वलए उपयुि नहीं है । दे क्तखए न, भारतिावसयों की अफ़्रीका में क्या दु दणशा हो रही है ? क्यों
अमरीका में उन्हें घुसने नहीं वदया जाता? बेचारे शराब नहीं पीते , चार पैसे कुसमय के वलए बचाकर रखते हैं , जी
तोड़कर काम करते हैं , वकसी से लड़ाई-झगड़ा नहीं करते , चार बातें सुनकर ग़म खा जाते हैं विर भी बदनाम हैं । कहा
जाता है , िे जीिन के आदशण को नीचा करते हैं । अगर िे ईंट का जिाब पत्थर से दे ना सीख जाते तो शायद सभ्य

गधे का एक छोटा भाई और भी है , जो उससे कम ही गधा है । और िह है 'बैल'। वजस अथण में हम 'गधा' का प्रयोग करते
हैं , कुछ उसी से वमलते -जु लते अथण में 'बवछया के ताऊ' का भी प्रयोग करते हैं । कुछ लोग बैल को शायद बेिकूफी में
सिणश्रेष्ठ कहें गे, मगर हमारा विचार ऐसा नहीं है । बैल कभी-कभी मारता भी है , कभी-कभी अवड़यल बैल भी दे खने में
आता है । और भी कई रीवतयों से अपना असं तोष प्रकट कर दे ता है , अतएि उसका स्थान गधे से नीचा है ।

I.बैल को ll.गधे को lll.भैंस को lV. ताऊ जी को

(ग) बैि का स्थाि गधे से िीचा ै। ऐसा क्ोिं क ा गिा ै ?
I. बैल सब सह लेता है । lll. बैल कभी -कभी विरोध भी करता है ।
ll. िह गधे से आकार में बड़ा होता है । lV. िह गधे से अवधक सहनशील होता है ।
(घ) सभ्य िायििोिं में िापाि की गर्िा क्ोिं ोिे िगी ?
I.क्योंवक उसने अन्याय का विरोध वकया। III. जापावनयों ने अमेररका का अनु करर् वकया।

ऐसा कोई वदन आ सकता है , जबवक मनुष्य के नाखूनों का बढ़ना बंद हो जाएगा। प्रावर्शास्त्रिर्ों का ऐसा अनुमान है वक
मनुष्य का र्ह अनािश्यक अंग उसी प्रकार झड़ जाएगा, वजस प्रकार उसकी पूूँछ झड़ गई है । उस वदन मनुष्य की पशुता
भी लुप्त हो जाएगी। शार्द उस वदन िह मारर्ािों का प्रर्ोग भी बंद कर दे गा। तब तक इस बात से छोटे बच्ों को
पररवित करा दे ना िां छनीर् जान पड़ता है वक नाखून का बढ़ना मनुष्य के भीतर की पशुता की वनशानी है और उसे नहीं
बढ़ने दे ना मनुष्य की अपनी इच्छा है , अपना आदशण है ।
बृहत्तर जीिन में अि-शिों को बढ़ने दे ना मनुष्य की पशुता की वनशानी है और उनकी बाढ़ को रोकना मनुष्यत्व की
आिश्यकता । मनुष्य में जो घृर्ा है , जो अनार्ास वबना वसखाए आ जाती है , िह पशु त्व का द्योतक है और अपने को संर्त
रखना, दू सरे के मनोभािों का आदर करना मनुष्य का स्वधमण है । अभ्यास और तप से प्राप्त िस्तुएूँ मनुष्य की मवहमा को
सूवित करती हैं । मनुष्य की िररताथणता प्रेम में है , मैत्री में है , त्याग में है , अपने को सबके मंगल के वलए वन:शेष भाि से दे
दे ने में है । नाखूनों का बढ़ना मनुष्य की उस अंध सहजात िृ वत्त का पररर्ाम है , जो उसके जीिन में सफलता ले आना
िाहती है , उसको काट दे ना उस स्व-वनधाण ररत, आत्म-बंधन का फल है , जो उसे िररताथणता की ओर ले जाती हैं ।

हर वकसी मनुष्य को अपने राष्ट्र के प्रवत गौरि, स्वावभमान होना आिश्यक है । राष्ट्र से जु डे समस्त राष्ट्र प्रतीकों के प्रवत भी
हमें स्वावभमान होना चावहए। राष्ट्र प्रतीकों का यवद कोई अपमान करता है , तो उसका पुरजोर विरोध करना चावहए। प्रत्येक
राष्ट्रावभमानी व्यक्ति के हृदय में अपने दे श, अपने दे श की संस्कृवत तथा अपने दे श की भाषा के प्रवत प्रेम होना स्वाभाविक
भािना ही है ।
राष्ट्र के प्रवत हर राष्ट्रिासी को राष्ट्र-वहत में अपने प्रार्ों का उत्सगण करने को तैयार रहना चावहए। वजस दे श के वनिावसयों
के हृदय में यह उत्सगण भािना नहीं होती है , िह राष्ट्र शीघ्र ही पराधीन होकर अपनी सु ख, शां वत और समृक्ति को सदा के
विए खो बैठता है । दे शभक्ति एिं सािण जवनक वहत के वबना राष्ट्रीय महत्ता का अक्तस्तत्व ही नहीं रह सकता है । वजसके हृदय
में राष्ट्रभक्ति है उसके हृदय में मातृ भक्ति, वपतृभक्ति, गुरुभक्ति, पररिार, समाज ि सािणजवनक वहत की बात स्वतः ही आ
जाती है ।
इन उपयुणि भािनाओं से िह आत्मबिी होकर अन्याय, अत्याचार ि अमानिीयता से िडने को तत्पर हो जाता चे मानि
धमण का अनुयायी होकर धमण एिं न्याय के पक्ष में खडा होता है । अतः राष्ट्र -धमण एिं राष्ट्र -भक्ति ही सिोपरर है । यवद हम
ऐसा नहीं करें गे तो स्वयं के प्रवत, ईश्वर के प्रवत एिं राष्ट्र के प्रवत अनु त्तरदायी ही होंगे। वकसी को हावन पहुुँ चाकर स्वयं के
विए अनुवचत िाभ उठाना अन्याय है । अपने राष्ट्र के प्रवत कत्तण व्य से विमुख न होना ही सच्ची राष्ट्रभक्ति है ।

(1) ANIMAL RIGHTS
People who support animal rights recognise that all animals have an inherent worth, a value
completely separate from their usefulness to humans. Every being with a will to live has the right
to live free from exploitation and suffering.
All animals have the ability to suffer in the same way and to the same degree that humans do.
They feel pain, pleasure, fear, frustration, loneliness, and familial love. Whenever we consider
doing something that would interfere with their needs, we are morally obligated to take them
into account.
People often ask if animal rights mean that animals should have the right to vote or drive a car.
Of course, that would be silly because those aren't rights that would benefit animals. But animals
have the right not to suffer at the hands of humans and to live their lives free from suffering and
exploitation because they have an interest in doing so. That is the difference between equal
consideration and equal treatment.
Almost everyone cares about animals in some context, whether it's a beloved family companion,
an irresistibly cute kitten or a majestic wild animal seen in a documentary. After all, we each
have some built-in capacity for empathy and compassion, as can be seen from the lengths that
children often go to in order to help animals.
Logically and morally, there is no reason to differentiate in the way we treat the animals we share
our homes with and those who are farmed for food. They are all individuals, with the same
capacity to a feel pain and fear. Animal rights help us to look past the arbitrary distinctions
1 of 7
between different species, to rediscover our innate compassion, and to respect all animals
equally.
Anyone who cares about animals can start putting these principles into practice every single day
with the food they eat, the clothes they wear and the products they buy. These choices are a form
of non-violent protest that makes a real difference both by reducing the profits of corporation
that harm or kill animals and by creating a growing market for cruelty- free food, fashion,
services and entertainment.

is the odd one out?

(c) Create a market for cruelty- free food, fashion etc.
(d) Recognize that all animals don’t have inherent worth.
v. Tick the antonym of ‘Majestic”-
(a) Exalted 1
(b) August
(c) Elevated
(d) Pathetic

Playing videogames provides entertainment and many social and psychological rewards.
However, videogame addiction also needs to be considered. Researchers have noted that
the number of hours spent playing videogames is not necessarily a core indicator of
addiction. Instead, several factors such as how fun or challenging a game is, or being able
to play with friends are also important determinants to understanding whether a game
is addictive or just engaging.
A study investigated the reasons for smartphone game addiction. This was done by
analysing the reviews of games. Reviews were collected from games across different
categories in an app store. A total of 25,200 reviews were collected containing references
to the game being addictive. These reviews were analysed and the number of times
different factors were mentioned for terming a game as addictive was recorded.
2 of 7
It was seen that 22.37% of the total reviews in the study that described a game as
'addictive', also described it as 'challenging'. This was the most common factor
associated with addictive games, out of all the 9 factors. This was followed by 15.7% of
the reviews mentioning the factor of ' friends'. Although it is a cliché, the ubiquity of the
internet has made the world a global village. Friends can now play and interact as a
group, build virtual relationships within the game, and attain social recognition from
others, without even meeting in person. All of these factors can be highly engaging to
players, and for some, these could become addictive.

LITERATURE.

(1) Once a tourist remarked, "I visited the Eastern States this time where the people talk in songs and
they always dance." The eastern region of India is no doubt charmingly novel in many of its features.
Mizoram, literally the land of Mizos is an expanse of blue-green hills. Mizoram is broken up
lengthwise into five major mountain ranges gradually descending from the south to the north. The
hills are rugged and their heights uneven. The name of the state Mizoram is made of two words. "Mi'
means human beings, ‘Zo’ means a hill. So, a 'Mizo' is a human dweller of a hill, Mizoram means the
land of the hill-dwellers. Aizawl is the capital town of the State built in tiers along the hill.
The Mizos have three main festivals Mim Kut, Chapchar Kut and Pawl Kut. These festivals are
associated with their agricultural activities during which they enjoy life by singing and dancing The
Mizos, blessed as they are with a beautiful environment and rich culture, are a vibrant and social
people. They love to dance as much as they love to sing. They boast a number of folk and community
dances handed down from one generation to the other through the ages. The dances are expressions
of the gay, carefree spirit of the Mizos. It should he noted here that these dances are not intended for
stage performance, rather they have been evolved for community involvement and participation.

.
The North-East of India is a melting pot of variegated cultural mosaic of people and races, an
ethnic tapestry of many hues and shades. Yet, these states are lesser explored as compared to the
rest of the country. The new generations of travellers who are ‘money rich and time poor’ are
increasingly looking for unique experiences --a phenomenon being called the emergence of the
‘experience economy’. For this new and growing breed of tourists, the North-East with its variety
and uniqueness holds immense attraction.
A study conducted in 2020 by Dr. Sherap Bhutia, revealed that the foreign tourist arrival in the
North-East increased from 37,380 persons in 2005 to 118,552 in 2014. The overall growth rate of
tourist (both domestic and foreign) in the North-East was as high as 26.44% during 2005-06. A
high and positive growth of 12.53% was registered in foreign tourist visits to North-East States of
India during 2012 from 2011, which further rose to register a growth of 27.93% during 2013 from
2012. Foreign tourist arrivals in the North-East witnessed a growth of 39.77% during 2014 from
2013, according to data provided from the Ministry of Tourism, Government of India.
The study recommendations for tourism planners included the need to concentrate on some key
areas like enhancement of tourist facilities, tourism financing, focus on community involvement
and others for the formulation of a sustainable tourism strategy in the North-East States of India.

LITERATURE.

(1) Located at about 1,200m above sea level, the valley, tucked away in the north-eastern corner of
Andhra Pradesh, shares a border with Odisha. For guests and participants at the Araku Balloon
Festival (ABF), held between 18-20 January every year, this is sightseeing like nothing else. The
drive to far-flung coffee estates takes us through the five northern mandals of Anantha giri,
Dumbriguda , Hukumpeta. Munchingi Putu and Araku valley. The name Araku for the coffee was
chosen simply because it sounded poetic. The view from the ground level is as impressive as the
one from above- the landscape changes from densely forested hills to sweeping valleys and
terrace farms surrounding occasional village clusters. The journey of Araku Coffee from a
livelihood initiative by the Naandi Foundation to a globally appreciated product has been in the
making for over a decade. It is also intrinsically tied to the history of how coffee arrived in this
valley. It was a British civil servant, N.S. Brodie, who introduced coffee to these hill tracts in 1898.
Today, Araku coffee is a brand that works with 517 villages and 10,986 farmers, all of whom are
estate owners and entrepreneurs with a stake in the business. The reason the coffee is of such
high quality is that it follows the best practices of bio-dynamic farming by creating an
interconnected and symbiotic ecosystem .The soil is enriched through composting and a variety
of shade trees are planted, including cash-yielding fruit trees like mango and jackfruit. Terroirs
are assessed and careful standard operating procedures are put in place from "sapling to
savouring", which ensures healthier plants and sweeter cherries and eventually a far superior
coffee aroma and flavour.

Business activities can be classified as under: 5
Statistical methods play a vital role in major business activities. Commerce and industry
in the modern age require a great deal of planning and forecasting of various kinds.
Statistics comes to the aid of the business planner in many ways.
The producer or the manufacturer has to estimate demand for his goods in the
immediate as well as distant future. This is done by market research for which all the
steps of statistical methods have to be followed. A cost accountant uses statistical tools
to help the producer fix the prices of various commodities.
Similarly, the trader—wholesaler or retailer—depends heavily on methods of statistical
analysis for finding out solutions to problems regarding buying and selling activities.
For profitable trade he must know what the customers want and also how long the
demand would last. This is very important for international trade. For this purpose
2 of 7
statistics of export-import for various commodities and regions are collected and
analysed for decision making.
Statistics are equally important for subsidiaries of trade. The banker plays an important
role in commerce and industry. He provides finances to the producer and trader.
Therefore, he has to forecast when the demand would be high and accordingly decide
what amount of reserves he must have. Similarly, he must estimate what amounts would
be required by his depositors, otherwise his bank would fail. For this, detailed analysis of
money transactions is required where statistical tools are indispensable.
Insurance companies function on the basis of estimates of mortality rates, that is life
expectations and on this basis of calculated insurance premiums. Accordingly, they
decide what proportion of their capital can be invested and what proportion can be kept
ready for payments of matured policies.
Other public utility bodies, such as the Road transport Companies, the Railways,
Advertising concerns, Warehouses, etc., which contribute to commerce in a significant
way, also make use of statistical data for their efficient functioning. For instance, they
have to determine the extent of demand that would be made on their services and the
rates they might fix for the same. In fact, no modern organisation can survive and
efficiently function without analysis of the complex factors that influence commerce.
For systematic business analysis statistical tools are absolutely essential.
Modern business management, therefore, is an activity that requires a great deal of
analysis or making proper decisions in the face of a large number of uncertainties.

Reading Comprehension Through Unseen Passages
(1) Carrying a credit card is common these days and has become an important part of our financial
life. Some consider it as a status symbol while some consider it important for their day-to-day
purchases.
Well, one of the best things about having a credit card is the ease that you get to purchase
essential or even luxury items even when you don’t have money to buy them. But, irrespective of
all these there is always a debate going on whether to have a credit card or not? Some love it for
the great benefits while others believe it can lead to debt.
The fact is- a credit card can be best when managed properly and carefully.
(2) One of the biggest advantages of having a credit card is the easy access to funds. Credit cards are
basically an account with a bank, where you get a pre-approved upper limit from which you can
borrow anytime you want. All you need to do is swipe your card. This means by using your card
you can pay for your purchases later. So, you don’t have to worry about any of your purchases
even if you are out of money.
(3) Many credit cards offer rewards to their customers, these rewards hold a lot of value as it has
the potential to reduce the cost of your future purchases.
But there is one important thing which you have to be aware of, that is about the various reward
programs offered by your card and how to use them. So, while selecting your credit card do
check for the reward programs as well, compare it with various credit cards available in the
market and then opt for a particular one.
Some rewards can be spent on flight tickets while others can be spent on petrol purchases,
groceries, and shopping. So, choose the card which can provide maximum benefit to you
depending on your uses.
(4) On the off chance that you are planning to make a big purchase that too without affecting your
bank balance, then going with a credit card is the best option for you. A credit card offers you an
EMI facility using which you can buy costlier things in one short without disturbing your
monthly budget or account balance. The fund used through credit cards can be repaid through
monthly instalments (EMIs). However, you need to pay some interest on the money used if not
repaid in the interest-free period.

(1) There has been an increase in forest loss in India’s mountainous states along its Himalayan
frontier, which are already in the throes of climate change, according to the latest report by the
Forest Survey of India (FSI).
India’s State of Forest Report is a biennial publication. The report for 2021 was released by Union
Minister for Environment, Forest and Climate Change, Bhupender Yadav January 13, 2022.
The report has classified India’s forests into four categories. One of them is Very Dense Forest
(with tree canopy density of 70 per cent or above).
(2) The Union territory (UT) of Jammu and Kashmir, which had very dense forests of 4,270 square
kilometres (sq km) area in 2019, had 4,155 sq km of the same forest category in 2021. This is the
highest loss of very dense forests anywhere in India.
Another category of forest as defined in the report is Open Forest (tree canopy density of 10 per
cent or above but less than 40 per cent).
Jammu and Kashmir has lost very dense forests but gained open forests, according to the report.
This has led to an increase in the UT’s total forest area to 21,387 sq km in 2021, from 21,358 in
2019. The increase in open forests is led by commercial plantations.
(3) The total forest area of Himachal Pradesh, another mountainous state, has increased by 9 sq km.
But there has been loss of open and Moderately Dense Forest (tree canopy density of 40 per cent
or above but less than 70 per cent). Moderately dense forests are usually close to human
habitations.
Himachal Pradesh had an area of 7,126 sq km under moderately dense forests in 2019. This
reduced to 7,100 sq km in 2021. The state had open forests spread across 5,195 sq km of its area
in 2019. This reduced to 5,180 sq km in 2021.
The report has attributed the loss of forest cover in the Himalayas and North East to an increase
in developmental activities as well as agriculture.

SECTION A : READING SKILLS (10 marks)

Reading Comprehension Through Unseen Passages
(1) Politeness has been well defined as benevolence in trifles. It is the desire to put those whom we
meet perfectly at their ease, and save them from every kind of petty discomfort and annoyance.
The limited part of benevolence called politeness requires only an inclination to make them
happy temporarily, while they are in our presence, and when this can be done without any
sacrifice on our part or only with a slight sacrifice of personal comfort.
(2) Politeness is said to be one of the important characteristics of civilised person. Politeness is the
art of choosing among your thoughts. It must be implemented in every walk of life. When we
deal with people elder to us we are polite. But, an honest polite person is polite with everyone,
people of lower status, workers and even children. Not only with humans but also with animals
we must be polite as they are our helpers.
(3) Politeness is a skill. Like any other skill, you can master it with practice. The greatest enemy of
politeness is ego. To be a polite person, you have to sacrifice your ego. It is difficult for an egoist
to be polite. You have to imply politeness in your thinking, speech and actions. Actions work
more than words. Polite actions will give fine results. Politeness will reduce your stress and
boost you to be productive. Apart from your present benefits, you protect your future. Being
polite makes you mentally healthy. In our daily life we come across many incidents with people
nearby and ourselves.
(4) Different rules of behaviour have to be observed, accordingly as we are in the street or in the
drawing room, at home or at school, in the company of friends or of strangers. There is also to
be considered the great diversity of social etiquette which distinguishes one country from
another.
(5) Politeness, besides being a duty that we owe to others, is a valuable possession for ourselves. It
costs nothing, and yet may in many cases bring much profit. The great advantage of this
excellence of conduct was very clearly expressed by Dr. Johnson, when he said that the
difference between a well-bred and an ill- bred man is that one immediately attracts your liking,
the other your dislike.

Like South Africa, India’s Constitution was also drawn up under very difficult circumstances. The making
of the constitution for a huge and diverse country like India was not an easy affair. At that time the
people of India were emerging from the status of subjects to that of citizens. The country was born
through a partition on the basis of religious differences. This was a traumatic experience for the people
of India and Pakistan. At least ten lakh people were killed on both sides of the border in partition related
violence. There was another problem. The British had left it to the rulers of the princely states to decide
whether they wanted to merge with India or with Pakistan or remain independent. The merger of these
princely states was a difficult and uncertain task. When the constitution was being written, the future
of the country did not look as secure as it does today.
