समस्याओं का हल ढूंढने की क्षमता पर एक अध्ययन किया गया। इसमें भारत में तीन तरह के बच्चों के बीच तुलना की गई - एक तरफ़ वे बच्चे जो दुकानदारी करते हैं पर स्कूल नहीं जाते, ऐसे बच्चे जो दुकान सँभालते हैं और स्कूल भी जाते है और तीसरा समूह उन बच्चों का था जो स्कूल जाते है पर दुकान पर कोई मदद नहीं करते।
उनसे गणना के व इबारती सवाल पूछे गए। दोनों ही तरह के सवालों में उन स्कूली बच्चों ने जो दुकानदार नहीं हैं, मौखिक गणित या मनगणित का प्रयोग बहुत कम किया, बनिस्बत उनके जो दुकानदार थे। स्कूली बच्चों ने ऐसी गलतियाँ भी कीं, जिनका कारण नहीं समझा जा सका। इससे यह साबित होता है कि दुकानदारी से जुडे़ हुए बच्चे हिसाब लगाने में गलती नहीं कर सकते क्योंकि है इसका सीधा असर उनके काम पर पड़ता है, जबकि स्कूलों के बच्चे वहीं हिसाब लगाने मेँ अवसर भयंकर ग़लतियाँ कर देते है।
इससे यह स्पष्ट होता है कि जिन बच्चों को रोज़मर्रा की जिंदगी में इस तरह के सवालों से जूझना पड़ता है, वे अपने लिए जरूरी गणितीय क्षमता हासिल कर लेते हैं।
लेकिन साथ ही इस बात पर भी गोर करना महत्त्वपूर्ण है कि इस तरह की दक्षताएँ एक स्तर तक और कार्य- क्षेत्र तक सीमित होकर रह जाती है। इसलिए वे सामाजिक व सांस्कृतिक परिवेश जो कि ज्ञान को बनाने व बढाने में मदद करते है, वहीं उस ज्ञान को संकुचित और सीमित भी कर सकते हैं।
Q. 'मनगणित' का अर्थ-

Read the passage and answer the following questions.
There is a lovely story of a tree and a little boy who used to play in its shade. They had become friends. One day, the boy sat leaning against the trunk of the tree, crying. He was hungry. "Eat my fruit" said the kind tree bending down one of its branches. The boy ate the fruit and was happy. The boy grew up. One day, he sat under the tree with an anxious look on his face. "What is the matter?" asked the tree. "I am going to marry and I want a house to live in," said the young man. "Cut down my branches and build your house." said the tree. The young man built a house with the branches of the tree. The young man became a sailor. One day, he sat under the tree with a worried look. "What is the matter?" asked the tree. "My captain is a cruel fellow. I want a ship of my own." said the sailor. "Cut down my trunk and build a ship." The sailor lost his ship and returned home as a helpless old man. On a cold winter's day, he stood where the tree once was, leaning on his stick and trembling with cold. "Make a fire of me, and warm yourself' said the stump of the tree. The stump of the unselfish tree burnt in the fire, softly humming a tune.
Q. The synonym of 'trembling' is:
Directions: Go through the passage carefully and answer the question that follows:
Summer break was fast approaching, and all Ram wanted to do was to go to a hill station. Unfortunately, Ram’s parents had different plans. They had booked a week-long tropical cruise. Ram hated warm weather and asked if he could just stay at his best friend’s house so he could he could go to any hill station with his buddies. His parents didn’t want to hear anything of it. He kept debating with them about the topic, but they would not change their minds. Family time was important to them, and it was a tradition that they spend the summer break together.
The week of the cruise arrived, and Ram continued to mumble his complaints as he and his family left their house to head south. Ram’s dad told him that he would only make the vacation worse for himself if he didn’t change his attitude and open his mind to a new experience. Ram still couldn’t stop thinking about all the hill stations he was leaving behind.
When they arrived at the port to board the ship, Ram had a hard time admitting that he was actually impressed with the size of the ship. He had seen the brochures but seeing the ship in person was a whole new ball game. Then he remembered that the brochure said something about a surfing pool. Maybe surfing would be somewhat fun at a hill station.
Ram climbed aboard the ship with his parents, and then they walked around to check everything out. He couldn’t believe how extravagant the accommodations were. The dining room looked like a royal hall; the game room had all of his favorite games; the ship’s deck had several different swimming pools for different purposes. Then Ram saw the surfing pool. It was incredible. It wasn’t a big pool, but it had big waves, and the girl who was demonstrating how to ride the waves made it look like a ton of fun.
Ram asked his parents if he could go put his swim shorts on so that he could try surfing. They said, “Of course.” They wanted to put their swim suits on as well, and, much to Ram’s surprise, they wanted to try surfing too.
They enjoyed themselves, and by the time the week-long cruise was over, Ram had new friends he planned to keep in touch with, a new hobby, and great memories. He apologized to his parents for initial moaning and groaning and told them that it was his best vacation ever.
Q. Why did Ram apologize to his parents in the end?
Read the given passage and answer the questions that follow:
The National Statistical Office (NSO) released a set of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) numbers earlier this week. The most recent data, namely, GDP growth for the quarter ending December 2022, came at 4.4%. This is 30 basis points (0.3 percentage point) lower than what a Bloomberg poll of economists expected the number to be. NSO has retained a projection of 7% growth in 2022-23 between its first and second advance estimates, which means that GDP growth in the quarter ending March will have to be 5.1%. This goes against the widespread opinion among economists that the Indian economy is losing, not gaining growth momentum at the moment.
NSO’s latest data release includes other sets of GDP numbers as well. They include the first revised estimate for 2021-22, the second revised estimate for 2020-21 and the final estimate for 2019-20. It is not Chanakya’s intent to overwhelm the readers with bureaucratic processes involving the release of statistics, but these revisions to past GDP numbers have significantly changed the facts as far as the Indian economy’s performance is concerned. GDP growth rates for 2019-20, 2020-21 and 2021-22 have been revised upwards from the earlier figures of 3.7%, -6.6% and 8.7% to 3.9%, -5.8% and 9.1%, respectively.
The revisions have had an effect on the latest growth statistics as well. If the December 2022 quarter GDP was compared to the December 2021 GDP numbers before the latest revision, the economy would have shown an expansion of 5.1% instead of 4.4%. To be sure, there is nothing one can do about this problem of comparing hitherto revised statistics with one that will undergo a revision two years down the line. And while one can claim to be wise in hindsight, Chanakya believes that such large adjustments in a crucial economic indicator like GDP have a blindsiding effect on economic policy which ideally requires data in real-time.
But deficiencies in our statistical system are a topic for another column; let us return to the state of the economy at the moment. Any modern economy has its share of headwinds and tailwinds to growth at a given moment in time. What are the most pressing headwinds for the Indian economy right now? First is the dissipation of pent-up consumption demand, which soared after being shackled due to pandemic-era restrictions. Private consumption is the single most important driver of the Indian economy. It had a share of 60% in total GDP in the December 2022 quarter. This is not to say that private consumption is going to plunge.
