CG TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 10 (Social Science) - Question 9

निर्देश: निम्नलिखित गद्यांश का ध्यानपूर्वक अध्ययन कर प्रश्नों के उत्तर दीजिए।
काल को हम बांध नहीं सकते। वह स्वत: नियंत्रित है, अबाध है। देवों का आह्वान करते हुए हम सकल कामना सिद्धि का संकल्प व्यक्त करते हुए और फिर विदा करते हुए कहते हैं- 'गच्छ-गच्छ सुरश्रेष्ठ पुनरागमनाय च'। जिसका अर्थ 'हे देव, आप स्वस्थान को तो जाएं, परंतु फिर आने के लिए' है। कितनी सकारात्मक हमारी संस्कृति है, जिसका मूल है- जो मानव मात्र के लिए हितकारी हो, कल्याणकारी हो, वह पुन:-पुन: हमारे जीवन में आए। गत वर्ष के लिए भी क्या ऐसी विदाई देना हमारे लिए संभव नहीं ? यह प्रश्न अनुत्तरित है। यह आना-जाना, आगमन-प्रस्थान सब क्या है ? एक उत्तर है कि ये काल द्वारा नियंत्रित क्रिया- प्रतिक्रियाएं हैं। जो आया है, वह जाएगा। फिर जो गया है, वह भी आएगा। यह हमारी संस्कृति की मान्यता है। हाल ही में एक विद्वान से उनके परिवार में हुई मृत्यु पर शोक संवेदना में कहा- 'गत आत्मा को शांति प्राप्त हो'। उन्होंने तुरंत ही टोकते हुए कहा- शांति प्राप्ति की बात तो पश्चिमी संस्कृति-सभ्यता की बात है। भारतीय परंपरा में तो उचित है- 'गत आत्मा को सद्गति प्राप्त हो'। इसके पीछे का गूढ़ भाव नए वर्ष के आगमन और पुराने वर्ष की विदाई की वेला को पूरी सार्थकता प्रदान करता है। शब्द और अर्थ मिलकर ही काल का, काल की गति का अर्थात् परिवर्तन का बोध कराते हैं।
काल (समय) निराकार है, अबूझ है। मानव ने समय को बांधने का बहुत प्रयास किया- पल, घड़ी, घंटा, दिन, सप्ताह, महीना, साल, मन्वन्तर... फिर भी समय कभी बंधा नहीं, कहीं ठहरता नहीं। 'कालोस्मि भरतर्षभ' कहकर कृष्ण ने काल की सार्वकालिक सत्ता को प्रतिपादित किया। इस सत्ता के आगे नत भाव से, साहचर्य के भाव से हम नया वर्ष मनाते हैं। काल ने जो दिया था, उसे स्वीकार करें और नए वर्ष में जो मिलेगा, उसको अंगीकार-स्वीकार करने के लिए हम पूरी तैयारी, पूरे जोश से तैयार रहें। इसी में पुरातन और नववर्ष के सन्धिकाल की सार्थकता है। यह सत्य है कि परिणाम पर मनुष्य का कोई नियंत्रण या दखल नहीं, पर नया साल भी पुराना होगा। इसलिए मनुष्य एक साल की अवधि के लिए अपने जीवन के कुछ नियामक लक्ष्य तो तय कर सकता है। नए साल का सूरज यही प्रेरणा लेकर आया है। जीवन के चरम लक्ष्य पीछे छूटते जा रहे हैं, खोते जा रहे हैं। ऐसे में नए वर्ष की शुरुआत अपने लक्ष्य निर्धारित करने का अच्छा अवसर है, आत्म निरीक्षण का अचूक मौका है यह। काल शाश्वत है। नए साल का आगमन और पुराने की विदाई यह हमारा कालबोध ही तो है। आगत का स्वागत भारतीय परम्परा के मूल में है। जो आया है, अतिथि है उसे अपना लो। काल के साथ, समय के साथ चलना मनुष्य की नियति है, परंतु काल के कपाल पर कुछ अंकित करने का संकल्प मनुष्य की जिजीविषा का मूल है।

Q. गद्यांश में आत्मनिरीक्षण का अर्थ है:

Detailed Solution for CG TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 10 (Social Science) - Question 9

गद्यांश में आत्मनिरीक्षण का अर्थ स्वयं का निरीक्षण है।

  • आत्मनिरीक्षण में दो शब्द ‘आत्म' एवं 'निरीक्षण' है।
  • आत्म शब्द का अर्थ: स्व या स्वयं से है एवं निरीक्षण का अर्थ: जाँच करना।
  • सम्मिलित रूप में इसका अर्थ हुआ: अपनी समीक्षा करना।
CG TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 10 (Social Science) - Question 10

निर्देश: निम्नलिखित गद्यांश को ध्यानपूर्वक पढ़कर पूछे गए बहुविकल्पीय प्रश्न का उत्तर दीजिए।
चुनाव पूर्व सर्वेक्षण एवं एक्जिट पोल का लोकतन्त्र में क्या महत्त्व है? यह प्रश्न विचारणीय है। लोकतन्त्र रूपी वृक्ष जनता द्वारा रोपा और सींचा जाता है, इसके पल्लवन एवं पुष्पन में मीडिया की विशेष भूमिका होती है। भारत एक लोकतान्त्रिक राष्ट्र है।लोकतान्त्रिक राष्ट्र में नागरिकों को विशिष्ट अधिकार और स्वतन्त्रताएँ प्राप्त होती हैं। भारतीय संविधान ने भी अनुच्छेद 19 (i) के अन्तर्गत नागरिकों को अभिव्यक्ति की स्वतन्त्रता प्रदान की है, लेकिन जनता के व्यापक हित पर प्रतिकूल प्रभाव डालने वाली स्वतन्त्रता बाधित भी की जानी चाहिए।
भारत जैसे अल्पशिक्षित देश में इस प्रकार के सर्वेक्षण अनुचित हैं। देश की आम जनता पर मीडिया द्वारा किए जाने वाले चुनाव पूर्व सर्वेक्षण और चुनाव के तुरन्त पश्चात् किए जाने वाले एक्जिट पोल का भ्रामक प्रभाव पड़ता है। वह विजयी होती पार्टी की ओर झुक जाती है। आज भी सामान्य लोगों के बीच ये आम धारणा है कि हम अपना वोट खराब नहीं करेंगे, जीतने वाले प्रत्याशी को ही वोट देंगे।
वर्तमान में बाजारवाद अपने उत्कर्ष पर है और मीडिया इसके दुष्प्रभाव से अनछुआ नहीं है। यह कहना अतिशयोक्ति न होगी कि आज मीडिया भी अधिकाधिक संख्या में प्रसार और धन पाने को बुभुक्षित है। मीडिया सत्ताधारी और मजबूत राजनीतिक दलों के प्रभाव में भी रहता है। ये दल धन के बल पर लोक रुझान को अपने पक्ष में दिखाने में सफल हो जाते हैं और सम्पूर्ण चुनाव प्रक्रिया को ही धता बता देते हैं। इस प्रकार सत्ता एवं धन इन सर्वेक्षणों को प्रभावित करते हैं। इन्हें दूध का धुला नहीं कहा जा सकता। भारत जैसे लोकतान्त्रिक राष्ट्र में जहाँ जनता निर्वाचन प्रक्रिया के माध्यम से अपना मत अभिव्यक्त करती है, वहाँ इन सर्वेक्षणों के औचित्य-अनौचित्य पर विचार किया जाना चाहिए।
न्यायालय को यदि संविधान के अनुसार चलने की बाध्यता है, तो संसद को संविधान में संशोधन करने की शक्ति प्राप्त है। वह अपने अधिकारों का प्रयोग करके कोई सार्थक प्रयास कर सकती है।

Q. लेखक ने 'दूध का धुला न होना' किसे कहा है?

Detailed Solution for CG TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 10 (Social Science) - Question 10

लेखक ने 'दूध का धुला न होना' मीडिया से सम्बन्धित लोगों को कहा है।
'दूध का धुला न होना' 
मुहावरे का अर्थ है निर्दोष या निष्कलंक होना।
वाक्य प्रयोग: आज के समाज में कोई दूध का धुला नहीं है।

CG TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 10 (Social Science) - Question 11

दिशानिर्देश: नीचे दिए गए गद्यांश को ध्यानपूर्वक अध्ययन करे और इस पर आधारित प्रश्नो के उत्तर दे:
केंद्रीय माध्यमिक शिक्षा बोर्ड (सीबीएसई) 10वीं कक्षा के अच्छे परिणाम से जहां खुशी का संचार हुआ है, वहीं इससे अन्य छात्रों को बेहतर पढ़ाई की प्रेरणा भी मिली है। कुल 91.46 प्रतिशत छात्र परीक्षा में सफल हुए हैं। पिछले वर्ष की तुलना में इस बार 0.36 प्रतिशत बेहतर नतीजे रहे हैं। अब यह आश्चर्य की बात नहीं कि लड़कियों ने 93.31 के पास प्रतिशत के साथ लड़कों को पछाड़ दिया है। लड़कों के पास होने का प्रतिशत 90.14 रहा है। खास बात यह रही कि इस वर्ष 2.23 प्रतिशत या 41,804 छात्रों ने 95 प्रतिशत से अधिक अंक प्राप्त किए हैं। यह बहुत सकारात्मक बात है कि 18 लाख विद्यार्थियों के बीच 1.84 लाख से अधिक ने 90 प्रतिशत से अधिक अंक हासिल किए हैं। मोटे तौर पर यह कहा जा सकता है कि 10 में से एक विद्यार्थी को 90 प्रतिशत से अधिक अंक हासिल होने लगे हैं, यह कहीं न कहीं बेहतर होती शिक्षा की ओर एक इशारा है।
एक अच्छी बात यह रही है कि सीबीएसई ने कोरोना वायरस के कारण उत्पन्न परिस्थितियों को देखते हुए इस वर्ष 12वीं और 10वीं, दोनों कक्षाओं के टॉपरों का एलान नहीं किया है। शिक्षाविद भी मानते हैं कि टॉपरों के एलान से लाभ कम और नुकसान ज्यादा होते हैं। आज छात्रों के बीच चिंता का माहौल है, वे घरों में रहने को विवश हैं, उनमें अकेलापन, अवसाद और अन्य तरह की समस्याएं बढ़ी हैं। अत: आज शिक्षा बोर्ड को ऐसी कोई पहल नहीं करनी चाहिए कि छात्रों की बड़ी जमात में किसी तरह का असंतोष, दुख या अपमान पैदा हो। कोरोना के इस दौर में हमें यह भी ध्यान रखना चाहिए कि 10वीं की परीक्षा ढंग से नहीं हो पाई है। अनेक विषयों की परीक्षा कोरोना के कारण स्थगित करनी पड़ी है। परीक्षा फिर से लेने के प्रयास भी सफल नहीं रहे हैं। ऐसे में, विद्यार्थी जिन विषयों की परीक्षा नहीं दे पाए हैं, उनमें उन्हें आनुपातिक रूप से ही अंक दिए गए हैं। इसलिए यह कहना गलत नहीं होगा कि परिणाम संपूर्ण नहीं है। यदि कोई छात्र परीक्षा रद्द होने से पहले तीन से अधिक विषयों की परीक्षा दे चुका था, तो उसे तीन उच्चतम प्राप्त अंकों के हिसाब से बाकी विषयों में अंक दिए गए हैं। इस व्यवस्था में उन छात्रों के साथ अच्छा नहीं हुआ है, जो तीन से कम विषयों की परीक्षा दे पाए थे। ऐसे विद्यार्थियों के परिणाम की गणना में आंतरिक, व्यावहारिक और परियोजना मूल्यांकन के अंकों पर भी गौर किया गया है।
बेशक, परीक्षा परिणाम सामने हैं, लेकिन कामचलाऊ ही हैं। उम्मीद करनी चाहिए कि कोरोना काबू में आएगा और दोबारा इस तरीके से मूल्यांकन की जरूरत नहीं रह जाएगी। गुणवत्तापूर्ण शिक्षा के लिए भी सामान्य शिक्षा, परीक्षा और परिणाम की बहाली बहुत जरूरी है। फिर भी एनसीईआरटी और सीबीएसई जैसी संस्थाओं को ऑनलाइन परीक्षा के पुख्ता तरीकों पर भी काम करना होगा। आने वाले दिनों में जो परीक्षाएं होंगी, उनका ढांचा कैसा हो? कैसे विद्यार्थियों का सही मूल्यांकन हो सके? इसके पैमाने चाक-चौबंद करने होंगे। आगे शिक्षा की चुनौतियां बहुत बढ़ रही हैं। शिक्षा की गुणवत्ता बनाए रखने के लिए विशेष प्रयास करने ही होंगे। दसवीं और बारहवीं की अगली परीक्षाओं में अब छह-सात महीने ही बचे हैं। सुनिश्चित करना होगा कि आगामी परीक्षाओं में सफल विद्यार्थियों की संख्या में कोई कमी न आने पाए।

Q. केंद्रीय माध्यमिक शिक्षा बोर्ड के इस वर्ष के परिणाम में कितने प्रतिशत बच्चों ने 95 % से ज्यादा अंक अर्जित किये?

Detailed Solution for CG TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 10 (Social Science) - Question 11

खास बात यह रही कि इस वर्ष 2.23 प्रतिशत या उपरोक्त गद्यांश के इस भाग के अध्ययन से ज्ञात होता है कि इस वर्ष 2.23 प्रतिशत या 41,804 छात्रों ने 95 प्रतिशत से अधिक अंक प्राप्त किए हैं।

CG TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 10 (Social Science) - Question 14

Directions: Read the given passage and answer the question that follows by selecting the most appropriate option.
The scene presented by a community of bees is the more astonishing, the more we become acquainted with its details. Each hive is a commonwealth, of which the queen is nominally the head, receiving the greatest honour and care from her industrious subjects. With a greater wisdom than can be claimed by men, these creatures allow no disputes about the succession to the throne to induce them to injure each other; but they require the parties themselves individually to settle the quarrel between each other, without prolonged interference with the duties of the hive. Indeed, they may be said with truth to have adopted the advice: Let those who make the quarrels, be the only ones to fight. Only one queen is permitted to hold office in the community at a time; but while her claims are undisputed, she is treated with singular respect and affection. Indeed, her presence, and the prospect of a future generation, appear the chief motives of the insects to exert themselves.

Q. 'To exert themselves' means the bees are

Detailed Solution for CG TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 10 (Social Science) - Question 14

'To exert themselves' means the bees are busy toiling.

CG TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 10 (Social Science) - Question 15

Read the following passage carefully.
Discursive writing refers to a style of writing that presents a balanced argument by considering various points of view. This type of writing allows the writer to explore different perspectives and draw conclusions based on evidence and reasoning. Discursive writing provides an opportunity for the writer to critically analyze a topic and consider different perspectives. This style of writing can also be used to present a convincing argument and persuade the reader to accept a particular viewpoint. Additionally, discursive writing helps the writer to develop analytical skills and improves critical thinking abilities.
However, discursive writing can also have some disadvantages. One of the main challenges is finding credible sources of information to support one's arguments. In addition, it can be difficult to keep the writing objective and neutral, especially when dealing with controversial or sensitive topics. Moreover, discursive writing can become repetitive and monotonous if the writer focuses too much on presenting different perspectives without offering a conclusion. To effectively write a discursive essay, it is important to research the topic thoroughly and gather relevant information from credible sources. The writer should also aim to present a balanced argument by considering both sides of the issue. Additionally, the writer should focus on developing clear and well-structured paragraphs and use transitional words to guide the reader through the argument.
In conclusion, discursive writing is a valuable tool for exploring different perspectives and drawing well-reasoned conclusions. However, it is important to approach the task with care and consideration to ensure that the writing is objective and presents a balanced argument. With the right preparation and strategy, discursive writing can be an enjoyable and effective way to express one's opinions and thoughts on a particular topic.

Q. What is the part of speech of the word "perspectives" as used in the second paragraph of the passage?

Detailed Solution for CG TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 10 (Social Science) - Question 15

CG TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 10 (Social Science) - Question 16

Directions: Read the given poem and answer the question that follows by selecting the most appropriate option.
As I Watch You Grow
Do you know how much you mean to me?
As you grow into what you will be.
You came from within, from just beneath my heart.
It's there you'll always be, though your own life will now start.
You're growing so fast it sends me a whirl,
With misty eyes I ask, Where's my little girl?
I know sometimes to you I seem harsh and so unfair,
But one day you will see, I taught you well because I care.
The next few years will so quickly fly,
With laughter and joy, mixed with a few tears to cry.
As you begin your growth to womanhood, this fact you must know,
You'll always be my source of pride, no matter where you go.
You must stand up tall and proud, within you feel no fear,
For all you dreams and goals sit before you very near.
With God's love in your heart and the world by its tail,
You'll always be my winner, and victory will prevail.
For you this poem was written, with help from above,
To tell you in a rhythm of your Mother's heartfelt love!
-KayTheese

CG TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 10 (Social Science) - Question 17

Direction: Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow.
She was one of those pretty and charming girls born, as if by an error of fate, into a family of clerks. She had no dowry, no expectations, no means of becoming known, understood, loved, or wedded by a man of wealth and distinction. So she let herself be married to a minor official at the Ministry of Education.
She dressed plainly because she had never been able to afford anything better, but she was as unhappy as if she had once been wealthy. Women don't belong to a caste or class; their beauty, grace, and natural charm take the place of birth and family. Natural delicacy, instinctive elegance, and a quick wit determine their place in society and make the daughters of commoners the equals of the very finest ladies.
She suffered endlessly, feeling she was entitled to all the delicacies and luxuries of life. She suffered because of the poorness of her house as she looked at the dirty walls, the worn-out chairs, and the ugly curtains. All these things that another woman of her class would not even have noticed tormented her and made her resentful. The sight of the little Brenton girl who did her housework filled her with terrible regrets and hopeless fantasies. She dreamed of silent antechambers hung with Oriental tapestries, lit from above by torches in bronze holders, while two tall footmen in knee-length breeches napped in huge armchairs, sleepy from the stove's oppressive warmth. She dreamed of vast living rooms furnished in rare old silks, elegant furniture loaded with priceless ornaments, and inviting smaller rooms, perfumed, made for afternoon chats with close friends - famous, sought after men, who all women envy and desire.
When she sat down to dinner at a round table covered with a three-day-old cloth opposite her husband who, lifting the lid off the soup, shouted excitedly, "Ah! Beef stew! What could be better," she dreamed of fine dinners, of shining silverware, of tapestries which peopled the walls with figures from another time and strange birds in fairy forests; she dreamed of delicious dishes served on wonderful plates, of whispered gallantries listened to with an inscrutable smile as one ate the pink flesh of a trout or the wings of a quail.

Q. Which of the following is false?

Detailed Solution for CG TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 10 (Social Science) - Question 17

The last line of the first paragraph states, "So she let herself be married to a minor official at the Ministry of Education."
From the above line, it is clear that she was married to a minor official instead major, and Thus, option (B) is false.

CG TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 10 (Social Science) - Question 18

Children’s errors and misconceptions:

Detailed Solution for CG TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 10 (Social Science) - Question 18

Error: When a learner can’t master a topic, he/she is vulnerable to make errors. Errors are nothing but incorrectness made by a child during learning. 
Misconceptions: It takes place due to the mismatch in previously assimilated and newly accommodated knowledge. 
Children’s errors and misconceptions:

  • are significant steps in the teaching-learning process.
  • are necessary in the learning process to give insight into children's thinking.
  • help the teacher to be aware of learners' learning styles, to cater them according to their needs.
  • are considered as a part of the teaching-learning process as it helps to understand the child.

So, it could be concluded that children’s errors and misconceptions are a significant step in the teaching-learning process.

CG TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 10 (Social Science) - Question 19

Direction: Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions that follow.
The morning of June 27th was clear and sunny, with the fresh warmth of a full-summer day; the flowers were blossoming profusely, and the grass was richly green. The people of the village began to gather in the square, between the post office and the bank, around ten o’clock; in some towns, there were so many people that the lottery took two days and had to be started on June 20th, but in this village, where there were only about three hundred people, the whole lottery took less than two hours so that it could begin at ten o’clock in the morning and still be through in time to allow the villagers to get home for noon dinner.
The children assembled first, of course. The school was recently over for the summer, and the feeling of liberty sat uneasily on most of them; they tended to gather together quietly for a while before they broke into boisterous play, and their talk was still of the classroom and the teacher, of books and reprimands. Bobby Martin had already stuffed his pockets full of stones, and the other boys soon followed his example, selecting the smoothest and roundest stones; Bobby and Harry Jones and Dickie Delacroix—the villagers pronounced this name “Dellacroy”—eventually made a great pile of stones in one corner of the square and guarded it against the raids of the other boys. The girls stood aside, talking among themselves, looking over their shoulders at the boys, and the tiny children rolled in the dust or clung to the hands of their older brothers or sisters.
Soon the men began to gather, surveying their own children, speaking of planting and rain, tractors and taxes. They stood together, away from the pile of stones in the corner, and their jokes were quiet, and they smiled rather than laughed. The women, wearing faded house dresses and sweaters, came shortly after their menfolk. They greeted one another and exchanged bits of gossip as they went to join their husbands. Soon the women, standing by their husbands, began to call to their children, and the children came reluctantly, having to be called four or five times. Bobby Martin ducked under his mother’s grasping hand and ran, laughing, back to the pile of stones. His father spoke up sharply, and Bobby came quickly and took his place between his father and his oldest brother.

Q. Which of the following statements are true concerning Bobby Martin?
A. Bobby Martin ducked under his mother’s grasping hand and ran, laughing, back to the pile of stones.
