मैत्री की राह बताने को,
सबको सन्मार्ग पर लाने को,
दुर्योधन को समझाने को,
भीषण विध्वंस बचाने को,
भगवान हस्तिनापुर आए,
पाण्डवों का सन्देश लाए।
'दो न्याय अगर तो आधा दो
पर इसमें भी यदि बाधा हो,
तो दे दो केवल पाँच ग्राम,
रखों अपनी धरती तमाम।
हम वहीं खुशी से खाएँगे,
परिजन पर असि न उठाएँगे।'

हम सब की मिली-जुली ज़िंदगी में कला के रूपों का ख़ज़ाना हर तरह बेहिसाब बिखरा चला गया है। सुंदरता का अवतार हमारे सामने पल-छिन होता रहता है। अब यह हम पर है, ख़ासतौर से कवियों पर, कि हम अपने सामने और चारों ओर की इस अनन्त और अपार लीला को कितना अपने अंदर बुला सकते हैं। इसका सीधा-सादा मतलब हुआ अपने चारों तरफ़ की ज़िंदगी में दिलचस्पी लेना, उसको ठीक-ठीक यानी वैज्ञानिक आधार पर समझना और अनुभूति और अपने अनुभव को इसी समझ और जानकारी से सुलझाकर स्पष्ट करके, पुष्ट करके अपनी कला-भावना को जगाना। यह आधार इस युग के हर सच्चे और ईमानदार कलाकार के लिए बेहद ज़रूरी है। इस तरह अपनी कला-चेतना को जगाना और उसकी मदद से जीवन की सच्चाई और सौंदर्य को अपनी कला में सजीव से सजीव रूप देते जाना : इसी को मैं 'साधना' समझता हूँ, और इसी में कलाकार का संघर्ष छिपा हुआ देखता हूँ। कला में भावनाओं की तराश-खराश, चमक, तेज़ी और गर्मी सब उसी से पैदा होंगी, उसी 'संघर्ष' और 'साधना' से, जिसमें अन्तर-बाह्य दोनों का मेल है। कला के इस सौंदर्य और उससे मिलने वाले आनंद के शत्रु वे जहाँ और जिस भेष में भी होंगे, जो भी होंगे-परिस्थितियाँ, व्यक्ति या दल-हर ईमानदार कलाकार के शत्रु होंगे।
कला जीवन का सच्चा दर्पण है। और आज के सभी देशों के जीवन में कायापलट तेज़ी के साथ आ रही है; क्योंकि आज किसको नहीं दिखाई दे रहा है कि यह क्रान्ति का युग है। थके हुए पुराने कलाकारों की आहों को भी उससे चमक मिलती है। नयों की तो वह काव्य सामग्री ही है ; क्योंकि वही उनके और उनके आगे की पीढ़ियों के लिए नये, उन्मुक्त, सुखी, आदर्श जीवन की नींव डालनेवाला है।

Q. उपर्युक्त अनुच्छेद के आधार पर बताइए कि ईमानदार कलाकार के शत्रु कौन हैं?

प्राथमिक स्तर की पाठ्य-पुस्तक में कार्टून, भाषण, विज्ञापन आदि बच्चों के भाषा-क्षमता विकास में ____ हैं।

निर्देश: नीचे दिए गए गद्यांश को पढ़कर निम्नलिखित प्रश्न में सबसे उचित विकल्प चुनिए ।
सारा संसार नीले गगन के तले अनंत काल से रहता आया है । हम थोड़ी दूरी पर ही देखते हैं क्षितिज तक, जहाँ धरतीऔरआकाश हमें मिलते दिखाई देते हैं । लेकिन जब हम वहाँ पहुँचते हैं, तो यह नज़ारा आगे खिसकता चला जाता है, और इस नज़ारे का कोई ओर-छोर हमें नहीं दिखाई देता है । ठीक इसी तरह हमारा जीवन भी है ।
ज़िंदगी की न जाने कितनी उपमाएँ दी जा चुकी हैं, लेकिन कोई भी उपमा पूर्ण नहीं मानी गई, क्योंकि जिदगी के इतने पक्ष हैं कि कोई भी उपमा उस पर पूरी तरह फ़िट नहीं बैठती । बर्नार्ड शॉ जीवन को एक खुली किताब मानते थे, और यह भी मानते थे कि सभी जीवों को समान रूप से जीने का हक़ है । वह चाहते थे कि इंसान अपने स्वार्थ में अंधा होकर किसी दूसरे जीव के जीने का हक न मारे । यदि इंसान ऐसा करता है, तो यह बहुत बड़ा अन्याय है । हमारे विचार स्वाभाविक रूप से एक-दूसरे से मेल नहीं खाते हैं, लेकिन इसका मतलब यह नहीं होता कि हम दूसरों को उसके जीने के हक़ से वंचित करें ।
यह खुला आसमान, यह प्रकृति और यह पूरा भू -मंडल हमें दरअसल यही बता रहा है कि हाथी से लेकर चींटी तक, सभी को समान रूप से जीवन बिताने का हक़ है । जिस तरह से खुले आसमान के नीचे हर प्राणी बिना किसी डर के जीने , साँस लेने का अधिकारी है, उसी तरह से मानव-जाति का स्वभाव भी होना चाहिए कि वह अपने जीने के साथ दूसरों से उनके जीने का हक न छीने । यह आसमान हमें जिस तरह से भय से छुटकारा दिलाता है, उसी तरह से हमें मानव-जाति से उन जीवों को डर से छुटकारा दिलाकर उन्हें जीने के लिए पूरा अवसर देना चाहिए । दूसरों के जीने के हक़ को छीनने से बड़ा अपराध या पाप कुछ नहीं हो सकता ।

Q. यदि किसी का ओर-छोर नहीं है, तो-

Directions: Read the passage carefully and answer the following questions.
Every year about two million people visit Mount Rushmore, where the faces of four U.S. Presidents were carved in granite by sculptor Gutzon Borglum and his son, the late Lincoln Borglum. The creation of Mount Rushmore Monument took 14 years - from 1927 to 1941 - and nearly a million dollars. These were times when money was difficult to come by and many people were jobless. To move the more than 40,000 tons of rock, Borglum hired laid-off workers from the closed-down mines in the Black Hills area. He taught these men to dynamite, drill, carve, and finish the granite as they were hanging in midair in his specially devised chairs. which had many safety features.  Borglum was proud of the fact that no workers were killed or severely injured during the years of blasting and carving.
During the carving, many changes in the original design had to be made to keep the carved heads free of large fissures that were uncovered. However, not all the cracks could be avoided, so Borglum concocted a mixture of granite dust, white lead, and linseed oil to fill them.
Every winter, water from melting snows gets into the fissures and expands as it freezes, making the fissures bigger. Consequently, every autumn maintenance work is done to refill the cracks. The repairers swing out in space over a 500-foot drop and fix the monument with the same mixture that Borglum used to preserve this national monument for future generations.

Between the Miles 
Because existence can become severe 
in one day 
just sense me and I’ll be there.
In the mind’ eye,
I’m not so far away
If you hold out your hand,
In the whispers, 
I’ll become the zephyr ……
And besiege you.
If your eye’s upon the stars,
In the crystalline darkness,
I’ll become the moon.
And the light shall guide you.
If you rest upon the ground,
In the warmth,
I’ll become the grass.
And embrace you 
If you turn outside,
In the wetness,
I’ll become the rain.
And upon your forehead, kiss you.
If you free the air,
In the light of day,
I’ll become the sun.
And smile for you.
Between the miles
If you need me.
If you need a friend.
Let me be the friend, I want to be.

Read the passage given below and answer the question that follows by selecting the most appropriate option.
In this floating village in Brazil, there is only one way to travel. Students go to school by boat. Locals go to worship by boat. Taxis arrive by boat. Even the soccer field is often a boat. There are three homemade fields on land, but they are submerged now in the annual flooding of the Black River. If the wooden goal posts had nets, they would be useful this time of the year only for catching fish. So, young players and adults improvise. They play soccer at a community centre that has a roof but no walls. They play on the dock of a restaurant. And they play on a parked ferry, a few wearing life jackets to cushion their fall. The high-water mark in the Rio Negro this year was the fifth-highest in more than a century of measurements.
As scientists study the impact of deforestation on the Amazon basin, and the cooling and warming of the Pacific Ocean, extreme patterns observed over the last 25 or 30 years raise an important unanswered question: “Are these trends human-induced climate change, or can we explain this with natural variability?” Villagers said that passing boats sometimes knocked down power lines during periods of exceptionally high water. And while the soccer fields are usually available for about half the year, the land has recently been dry enough for only four or five months of play. “We don’t have a place for the children to play,” said de Sousa, a shop owner. “They are stuck in the houses, bored.” The most adventurous, though, will find a game somewhere.

Directions: Read the poem given below and answer the question that follows by selecting the most appropriate option.
THE LAST CONQUEROR
Victorious men of earth, no more
Proclaim how wide your empires are;
Though you bind-in every shore
And your triumphs reach as far
As night or day,
Yet you, proud monarchs, must obey
And mingle with forgotten ashes, when
Death calls ye to the crowd of common men.
Devouring famine, plague and war,
Each able to undo mankind,
Death’s servile emissaries are;
Nor to these alone confined,
He hath at will
More quaint and subtle ways to kill;
A smile or kiss, as he will use the art,
Shall have the cunning skill to break a heart.

Q. "... mingle with forgotten ashes" __ means

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.
