I. Read the following passage carefully and answer the following

questions:
A dance which is created or choreographed and performed according
to the tenets of the Natya Shastra is called a classical dance. The two
broad aspects of classical dancing are the Tandava and the lasya.
Power and force are typical of the Tandava, grace and delicacy , of the
lasya . Tandava is associated with Shiva and lasya with Parvati. Dance
which is pure movement is called nritta , and dance which is
interpretative is called nritya. The four main schools of classical
dancing in India Bharat Natyam Kathakali, Manipuri and Kathak .
Bharata Natyam is the oldest and the most popular dance form of India
. Earlier it was known by various names. Some called it Bharatam
some Natyam some desi Attam and some Sadir. The district of Tanjore
and Kanchipuram in Tamil Nadu where the focal points in the
development of Bharata Natyam. It was danced as a solo performance
by devadasis on all auspicious occasions. Later kings and rich people
lent their patronage to it and it started shedding it's purely sacred
character.
The dancer is directed by the natuvanar who is a musician and
invariably a teacher . Another musician plays the cymbals. The music
for Bharatanatyam is from the Carnatic schools of music. The
mridangam played on both sides with the hands, provides the rhythm.
The home of Kathakali is Kerala . Kathakali means “story play”. It
combines music, dance, poetry, drama and mime. Its present form has
evolved out of older form such as Ramanattan and Krishnattam.
Kathakali dance dramas last from dusk to dawn . The artistes use
elaborate costumes; mask like makeup and towering head dresses.
The dancers are all males. Female roles are played usually by boys .
There is no stage a few mats are spread on the ground for the
audience to sit on . The only “stage lighting” is a brass lamp fed with
coconut oil.
Two singers provide the vocal music. The chenda , a large drum ,
which is beated on one side way with two slender curved sticks, is an
integral part of the Kathakali performance . A metal gong , a pair of
cymbals and another drum complete the orchestra . Besides providing
the beat, they are also the means by which all the sound effects are
created.

Read the passage given below and answer the following questions:
The Chipko (literally ‘to cling’ in Hindi) movement or Chipko andolan
2. is a social-ecological movement that practises the Gandhian methods of
satyagraha and non-violent resistance through the act of hugging trees to
protect them from being cut.
The Chipko movement started in the early 1970s in Garhwal with

growing resentment towards rapid deforestation. The landmark event in
this struggle took place on 26th March, 1974, when a group of peasant
women in Reni village, Uttarakhand, acted to prevent the cutting of
trees and reclaimed their traditional forest rights that were threatened by
the contractor system of the state Forest Department. Their actions
inspired hundreds of such actions throughout the region. By the
2
1980s the movement led to the formulation of people-sensitive forest
policies, which put a stop to the cutting of trees in regions as far
reaching as the Vindhyas and the Western Ghats. 8
The first recorded event of Chipko however, took place in village
Khejrali, Jodhpur, in 1731, when 363 Bishnois led by Amrita Devi
sacrificed their lives while protecting Khejri trees, considered sacred by
the community, by hugging them, and braved the axes of loggers sent
by the local ruler. Today, it is seen as an inspiration and an originator
for Garhwal’s Chipko movement.
Though primarily a livelihood movement rather than a forest

conservation movement, it went on to become a rallying point for many
future movements all over the world and created a model for non-
violent protest. It occurred at a time when there was hardly any
environmental movement in the developing world, and its success
meant that the world immediately took notice. It inspired many eco-
groups by helping to slow down rapid deforestation, increase ecological
awareness and demonstrate the possibility of people power. Above all, it
stirred up the existing civil society in India, which began to address the
issues of tribal and marginalised people. So much so that, a quarter of a
century later, ‘India Today’ mentioned the people behind the ‘forest
satyagraha of the Chipko movement as amongst the hundred people
who shaped India.
Today, it is also being seen increasingly as an eco-feminism movement.

Women were its backbone and core because they were the ones most
affected by the rampant deforestation, which led to a lack of firewood
and fodder as well as drinking and irrigation water. In 1987, the Chipko
movement was awarded the Right Livelihood Award.
Answer the following questions :

2. A.
I) What was the landmark event in Garhwal’s Chipko
movement?
II) What did the Chipko movement ultimately lead to?
III) What event in history was an inspiration for
Garhwal’s Chipko movement?
IV) Why was the Chipko movement awarded the
Right Livelihood Award

Read the following passage very carefully.

3 It is hard to think of an Indian snack that is not fried. However, we
need to be aware of what happens to oil when it is heated. When oil
begins to smoke, it is a good indication that it has been heated too
much. At this temperature chemical changes begin to take place which
have many health risks . Of course this is tricky. If the oil is not hot
enough, then mode of it is absorb and the resultant product is quite
soggy and unfit to eat. Further , prolonged heating of oil at high
temperature that is at its smoking point or higher, leads to its
degradation. A substance called acrolein is formed which can irritate
the stomach lining . Oil that has decomposed to acrolein will be dark
and viscous. Normally this does not happen when food is fried at home
but as oil is expensive, we are not willing to throw it down the drain
after having used it only once. The common tendency is to set aside
any oil that is leftover, to be used another time. And repeated use of
the same oil guarantees the formation of acrolein with all its
undesirable effects.
In fact, some experts suggest that oil should not be held at its smoking
temperature for more than 15 minutes at a time. This time span, as
everyone knows, is hardy sufficient to prepare the required number
of puris for even a small family of four. Sadly, olive and corn oils are
not widely available in our markets. Both these oils can be heated to a
high temperature before they start smoking. Even heart-friendly oils
like those made from sunflower are not spared from these effects.
Harmful chemical changes will take place if oil is heated to high
temperature for a long time or if it is used over and over again. Still ,
vegetable fats are recommended for frying over animal fats like butter
and ghee because they are less likely to cause heart diseases. Another
problem arises when the used oil is stored under less than satisfactory
conditions. If the oil is not stored in an airtight container which does
4
not allow like to pass through, then it will deteriorate further
because of the effect of Oxygen and light on the oil. By and large,
these undesirable effects result when food is deep - fried so eat deep-
fried food occasionally. This does not mean that we can no longer
enjoy the flavour and palatability of fried foods . Some foods like tikkis
lend themselves to both deep and shallow frying. Oil from shallow
frying is rarely leftover, so that takes away the worry of decomposed
oil. And every batch of frying will require fresh oil. Oil that has not
been used before.
The practice of heating small amount of mustard , black gram , dal,
curry leaves , chilies and the like in a little oil before they are added to
curries and vegetables and meat dishes, is called tempering.
Tempering is not meant only to lend a fine flavour to the food it has a
nutritional benefit as well. Certain vitamin A, D, E AND K are soluble
only in fat, and in order that they are absorbed in the human gut ,
some fat has to be present in same meal , preferable in the same dish.
To get the benefit of carotene in carrots, for example, temper them
with the little oil, mustard and curry leaves.

raising or lowering some weight connected to it . The first law of
thermodynamics is the general law of conservation energy applied to any
system in which energy transfer from a system to the surroundings occurs
through heat and work. According to the first law of thermodynamics, if
some heat is supplied to system which is capable of doing work, then the

SECTION-D
31. Read the passage given below and answer the following
questions:
The rotation of carbon-carbon single bond (s-bond), due to

cylindrical symmetry of molecular orbitals long internuclear axis, in
alkanes results into different spatial arrangements of atoms in
space, that are interconvertible. These arrangements are called
conformations. However, weak repulsive interaction are present
between the adjacent bonds in alkanes so the rotation of C—C
single bond is not completely free and is hindered by a small energy
barriers of 1-20 kJ mol-1. The repulsive interaction between the
adjacent bond is due to electron cloud. The two types of
conformations are very common, i.e., staggered and eclipsed. The
conformation in which the hydrogen atoms attached to the two
carbon atoms are as far apart as possible is called the staggered
conformation. The conformations in which the hydrogen atoms
attached to the two carbon atoms are as closed as possible is called
eclipsed conformation. Any intermediate conformation between the
above two is called skew or gauche conformation. Alkanes As
already mentioned, alkanes are saturated open chain hydrocarbons
containing carbon – carbon single bonds.
Methane (CH4) is the first member of this family. Methane is a gas
found in coal mines and marshy places. If replace one hydrogen atom
of methane by carbon and join the required number of hydrogens to
satisfy the tetravalency of the other carbon atom, it get C2H6 . This
hydrocarbon with molecular formula C2H6 is known as ethane. Thus
it can consider C2H6 as derived from CH4 by replacing one hydrogen
atom by -CH3 group. Go on constructing alkanes by doing this
theoretical exercise i.e., replacing hydrogen atom by –CH3 group.
The next molecules will be C3H8, C4H10

32. Read the passage given below and answer the following
questions:
5
Branched chain hydrocarbons: In a branched chain compound small
chains of carbon atoms are attached at one or more carbon atoms of
the parent chain. The small carbon chains (branches) are called alkyl
groups. For example:
In order to name such compounds, the names of alkyl groups are

prefixed to the name of parent alkane. An alkyl group is derived
from a saturated hydrocarbon by removing a hydrogen atom from
carbon. Thus, CH4 becomes – CH3 and is called methyl group. An
alkyl group is named by substituting ‘yl’ for ‘ane’ in the
corresponding alkane. A reagent that brings an electron pair to the
reactive site is called a nucleophile (Nu:) i.e., nucleus seeking and
the reaction is then called nucleophilic. A reagent that takes away
an electron pair from reactive site is called electrophile (E+) i.e.,
electron seeking and the reaction is called electrophilic.
Electron Displacement Effects in Covalent Bonds The electron
displacement in an organic molecule may take place either in the
ground state under the influence ofan atom or a substituent group or
in the presence of an appropriate attacking reagent. The electron
displacements due to the influence of an atom or a substituent group
present in the molecule cause permanent polarisation of the bond.
Inductive effect and resonance effects are examples of this type of
electrondisplacements. Temporary electron displacement effects are
seen in a molecule when a reagent approaches to attack it. This type
of electron displacement is called polarisability effect.
1. Define the term electrometric effect . [1]

35. An alkyl halide C5H11Br (A) reacts to ethanolic KOH and produce [5]
an alkene ‘B’, which then reacts with Br2 to produce a compound
‘C’, which goes through dehydrobromination and gives an alkyne
with ‘D’. On treating with sodium metalin the presence of liquid
ammonia, one mole of ‘D’ produces one mole of the
sodium salt of ‘D’ and half a mole of hydrogen gas. Complete
process of hydrogenation of ‘D’ produces a straight-chain alkane.
