Question No. : 35
On August 3, 1492 , Christopher Columbus set sail from Palos , Spain , with less than a hundred crew members to discover a
new route to Asia. After spending a difficult time at sea, the party sighted land early on the morning ofOctober 12, 1492. They
set foot on an island in the Bahamas which they named Al Salvador. Columbus presumed that the indigenous people were
Native Indians as he was under the mistaken belief that he had set foot on Indian soil. Probably some 10 million American
Indians were natives to the land before the large-scale inhabitation by Europeans and subsequent annihilation of Native
Americans started.

However, it took more than a hundred years after Columbus discovered America for the Europeans to finally take the
momentous decision to make the New World their home.

The Native Americans actually welcomed the pale-skinned visitors primarily out of curiosity than anything else. They were
fascinated by the steel knives and swords, fire spewing cannons, brass and copper utensils, etc. that these visitors brought with
0
them. Eventually, cultural differences erupted. The natives could not stomach the arrogance of the newcomers and the scant
respect they paid to nature. The European settlers viewed every resource — plants, animals, and people as something to be
36
commercially exploited.

The native Indians were vastly outnumbered in the wars that ensued. The resistance they put up never proved enough to stop
the European settlers. The nomadic lifestyle of the Indians, the relatively unsophisticated weapons at their disposal, the
unwillingness of some of their own people to defend themselves, and the diseases of the white men — all contributed to the
virtual elimination of their race. Some of the diseases brought by Europeans from their overcrowded cities that decimated the
S
natives were: small pox, plague, measles, cholera, typhoid, and malaria. These deadly diseases, to which most natives had
developed no resistance, devastated many tribes between 1775 and 1850.

R
America was named after an Italian navigator, Amerigo Vespucci, who explored the Northern parts of South America in 1499
and 1500 and later announced to the world about the discovery of a new
continent.
E
Why did the natives welcome the settlers from Europe?

E
A) They were not an aggressive lot and refrained from fighting

B) They did not anticipate the evil designs of Columbus and his crew
C) They were not aware that the Europeans were infected with communicable disease.

D) They were fascinated by the novel articles brought by the settlers.

The strength of Indian democracy lies in its tradition, in the fusion of the ideas of democracy and national independence which
was the characteristic of the Indian nationalist movement long before Independence. Although the British retained supreme
authority in India until I947, the provincial elections of 1957 provided real exercise in democratic practice before national
independence; during the Pacific war, India was not overrun or seriously invaded by the Japanese and after the War was over,
the transfer to power to a government of the Indian Congress Party was a peaceful one as far as Britain was concerned. By 1947
‘Indianisation’ had already gone far in the Indian Civil Service and Army, so that the new government could start with effective
instruments of central control. After independence, however, India was faced with two vast problems; the first, that of
economic; growth from a very low level of production, and the second was that of ethnic diversity and the aspirations of sub
nationalities. The Congress leadership was more aware of the former problem than of the second; as a new political elite which
had rebelled not only against the British Raj but also against lndia's old social order, they were conscious of the need to initiate
economic development and undertake social reforms, but as nationalists who had led a struggle against the alien rule on behalf
of all parts of India, they took the cohesion of the Indian nation too much for granted and underestimated the centrifugal
0
forces of ethnic division, which were bound to be accentuated rather than diminished as the popular masses were more and
more drawn into politics. The Congress Party was originally opposed to the idea of recognizing any division of India on a
36
linguistic basis and preferred to retain the old provinces of British India which often cut across linguistic States was conceded as
the basis for a federal `Indian Union`. The rights granted to the States created new problems for the Central Government. The
idea of making Hindi the national language of a united India was thwarted by the recalcitrance of the speakers of other
important Indian languages, and the autonomy of the States rendered central economic planning extremely difficult. Land
reforms remained under the control of the States and many large—scale economic projects required a degree of cooperation
between the Central Government and one or more of the States which it was found impossible to achieve. Coordination of
S
policies and difficult even when the Congress Party was in power both in the States and at the Centre; when a Congress
Government in Delhi was confronted with non-Congress parties in office in the states, it became much harder
R
Why was central economic planning found to be difficult?
A) It was difficult because of Multiplicity of States and Union Territories

QNo:- 1 ,Correct Answer:- C
Explanation:-
3P + 10S + 12E = 38 ...............(1)
10P + 3S + 1E = 79................(2)

Add both the equations, we get;
13P + 13S + 13E = 117.
So, (P + S + E) = 117/13 = Rs 9.

Explanation:-
Repayment amount on loan of Rs. 2000000 = 18000×20×12 = 4320000
Repayment amount on loan of Rs. 1500000 = 20600×15×12 = 3708000

Total amount repaid over a period of 25 years = 12650×12×25 = Rs. 3795000

A
Explanation:-
C
Monthly repayment is reduced by Rs. 1000. So the total reduction = 1000×12×20 = 2,40,000.
Explanation:-
Difference between the repayment for a period of 15 years and repayment period for 10 years = 10300 × 15 × 12 – 19400 × 10 ×
12 = Rs. 474000

S
Explanation:-
R
The speed of train in m/s is 54 x 5/18 = 15 m/s.
The train crosses the man in 20 seconds, therefore length of train is (15 x 20) = 300m.

E
Now, let the length of platform be P.

E
=> 300 + P = 540

=> P = 240
R
A
Explanation:-
C
Explanation:-
15M = 24W = 36B
so 12W = (15/2)M and 6B = (15/6)M
so let number of men required = x
[x+(15/2) +(15/6)]M = (x+10)M
M H D W
15 8 12 1
(x+10) 6 30 9/4
on solving we get
15*8*12*(9/4) = (x+10)*6*30*1 => x = 8
0

Explanation:-
Solve this equation and get the radius as 9 cm.

Explanation:-
Total cases = 4 × 3 = 12. (as we have 4 values of x and 3 values of y)
Now, favourable cases are (1 × 6),(2 × 5),(2 × 6),(2 × 7),(3 × 6),(4 × 5),(4 × 6),(4 × 7).
Total 8 cases, so, probability = 8/12 = 2/3

Explanation:-
0
36
QNo:- 20 ,Correct Answer:- B S
Explanation:-
R
E
Explanation:-
E
Let the numbers be x, x+2, x+4, x+6, x+8, x+10, x+12. As the average of these numbers is 20.as number of terms = 7 i.e. odd so
avg must be (7+1)/2 =4th term
which is x+6 = 20
R
Therefore on solving we get x = 14.

Thus the smallest number is 14 and the largest is 26. So product is 14×26 = 364

A
C
Explanation:-
LCM (4, 5, 6, 8, 9) = 360. We need a multiple of 13 and no remainder should be there, So it will be in the form 360 k + 2. We will
check for the multiple of 13 where it satisfies. If the value of k is 7 then it satisfies. i.e. 2520 + 2 = 2522 is totally divisible by 13.
Explanation:-
% time spent in school = (105/360)×100 = 29.16% = 30% (approx)
Explanation:-
% time spent in games in comparison to sleeping = (30/120)×100 = 25%
Explanation:-
% reduction in sleeping time = (15/120)×100 = 12.5%
Explanation:-
3 (x+3) × 9 (2x-5) = 3 (3x+7);
3 (x+3) × 3 (4x-10) = 3 (3x+7);
3 (5x-7) = 3 (3x+7) ;
so, 5x - 7 = 3x + 7
x=7
