TS TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 9 (Social Science) - TS TET MCQ

Exceptional children are those who deviate from the normal population and need special education services to meet their needs. It includes children who are gifted, backward, creative, learning disabled, educationally retarded, etc.
The above-mentioned characteristic is related to 'Educationally retarded children' as a class consists of students with varying learning abilities as some learn fast and some learn slowly.
'Educationally retarded children': 

• An educationally retarded child is not mentally retarded or physically disabled.
• He may have a neurological handicap or emotional disorder which hinders their abilities.
• Appropriate training is required to make educationally retarded children learn some self-care and communication skills.
• Educationally retarded children show the inability to do the work of the class below that which is normal for their age.

So, it could be concluded that if a child 'who is in the middle of his school (that is about ten and half years) is unable to do the work of the class below that which is normal for his age" is known as 'Educationally retarded children'.
Mental retardation: It refers to an intellectual disability characterized by low Intelligence Quotient (IQ) and impairments in adaptive daily life skills. 
Moron: A child with mild intellectual disability and an IQ of (51-70).
Idiot: A child with the least intelligence on the IQ scale (0-25).

The primary role of the teacher should be to give plenty of opportunities to children to share their own understanding and knowledge. This only can help to realise the aims and objectives of a curriculum.

Creative thinking aims at novelty in the first instance rather than truth. Creative thinking is always 'constructive' as it aims at novelty. It necessarily has to be different from the conventional modes of thinking.

उपर्युक्त गद्यांश के अनुसार उपभोक्ता किसी उत्पाद का इस्तेमाल करके बाजार में भागीदार बना जाता है।
गद्यांश से

• "किसी उत्पाद का इस्तेमाल करके उपभोक्ता भी बाजार में भागीदार बन जाता है। यदि उपभोक्ता नहीं होंगे तो किसी भी कंपनी का अस्तित्व नहीं होगा।"

चयन और उन्नयन का सिद्धांत:
भाषा सामग्री के चयन को अच्छे शिक्षण की पहली आवश्यकता माना जाता है। यह व्याकरणिक मदों और शब्दावली और संरचनाओं के संबंध में किया जाना चाहिए।
भाषा सामग्री के उन्नयन का अर्थ है भाषा की वस्तुओं को क्रम में रखना। इसमें समूहन और अनुक्रम शामिल है।

• भाषा प्रणाली को समूहबद्ध करने का अर्थ है कि क्या ध्वनियाँ, शब्द, वाक्यांश और अर्थ सिखाए जाने हैं। इस प्रकार हमारे पास फोनेटिक ग्रुपिंग, लेक्सिकल ग्रुपिंग, ग्रामेटिकल ग्रुपिंग, सिमेंटिक ग्रुपिंग और स्ट्रक्चर ग्रुपिंग है।
• अनुक्रम का अर्थ है कि किसके बाद क्या आता है। एक विदेशी भाषा को पढ़ाने में, अनुक्रम वाक्यांशों (व्याकरणिक अनुक्रम) शब्दों (शाब्दिक अनुक्रम), और अर्थ (शब्दार्थ अनुक्रम) की व्यवस्था में होना चाहिए।

इसलिए, हम यह निष्कर्ष निकाल सकते हैं कि किसी विदेशी भाषा को पढ़ाने में अनुक्रमण के सिद्धांतों में ध्वन्यात्मक अनुक्रम शामिल नहीं है।

व्याकरण किसी भी भाषा की रीढ़ होता है। यह गर्भ है जो वाक्यों को जन्म देता है। इन वाक्यों को सही और उपयुक्त भाषण बनाने के लिए व्याकरण का उपयोग करके निषेचित किया जाता है।

• व्याकरण को भाषा के सिद्धांत के रूप में परिभाषित किया गया है। हम भाषा को ध्वनि, शब्द निर्माण और संरचना से संबंधित नियम-शासित व्यवहार मानते हैं। यहां व्याकरण आकृति विज्ञान और वाक्य रचना से संबंधित नियमों का एक सबसेट है।
• व्याकरण के नियमों को आसान बना दिया जाता है यदि उन्हें संदर्भ में उदाहरणों का उपयोग करके दिया जाता है और संदर्भ में व्याकरण शिक्षण लक्ष्य भाषा में सटीकता प्रदान करता है।
• उदाहरणों का उपयोग करके संदर्भ में व्याकरण सीखना शिक्षार्थियों को यह देखने की अनुमति देगा कि वाक्यों में नियमों का उपयोग कैसे किया जा सकता है।
• संदर्भ में व्याकरण का अभ्यास करने का अवसर प्रदान करने से शिक्षार्थियों को यह समझने में मदद मिलेगी कि भाषा कैसे काम करती है और इससे उनके संचार कौशल में सुधार होगा।

इस प्रकार, यह निष्कर्ष निकाला जाता है कि (A) सही है, लेकिन (R) सही नहीं है।

किसी विषय, वस्तु, दृश्य, घटना या वातावरण के संदर्भ में हम जो कुछ मौलिक ढंग से सोचते हैं, जो विचार हमारे मन में आता है, उसकी कल्पना में जो चिन्तन चलता है तथा जिन्हें हम शब्दों और वाक्यों की सहायता से मौखिक या लिखित रूप में व्यक्त करते हैं, वह 'स्वतंत्र अभिव्यक्ति' कही जाती है।

• 'स्वतंत्र अभिव्यक्ति' भाषा का आवश्यक अंग है।
• इसकी सहायता से सहज ही भाषा में कुशलता प्राप्त की जा सकती है।
• भाषा के सृजनान्तक विकास के लिए आवश्यक है कि बच्चों में स्वतंत्र रूप से बोलने और लिखने की कला का विकास हो।
• इसके लिए बच्चों के स्तर और परिवेश को ध्यान में रखकर उन्हें स्वतंत्र अभिव्यक्ति के लिए प्रेरित करना चाहिए।
• हम स्वयं अनुभव करेंगे कि बच्चे भाषा को उसकी शुद्धता और सुगमता के साथ सीख रहे हैं, क्योंकि हम सभी जानते हैं कि भाषा एक कौशल है।
• यह कौशल विभिन्‍न प्रयोगात्मक कार्यों से और निखरता है।
• बच्चों में स्वतंत्र अभिव्यक्ति की समझ विकसित हो, उनकी मौखिक, लिखित शैली बेहतर हो इसके लिए जरूरी है कि उनके सामने ऐसा वातावरण बनाया जाय, जहाँ पर वे अपने भाव, विचार और चिन्तन को निःसंकोच शब्द का रूप दे सकें।

उपर्युक्त पद्यांश के अनुसार जौ और गेहूँ में बालियाँ आ जाने से धरती खुशी से रोमांचित लग रही है।
पद्यांश से

• "रोमांचित सी लगती वसुधा.. आई जौ गेहूँ बाली"

पद्यांश की निम्न पंक्तियों से स्पष्ट है कि आषाढ़ के महीने का सम्बन्ध वर्षा ऋतु से होता है:-

• पानी वक्त पर आए नहीं तो तिलमिलाता है
  अगर आषाढ़ के पहले दिवस के प्रथम इस क्षण में

वर्षा ऋतु आषाढ़ से श्रावण तक रहती है। 

उच्च प्राथमिक स्तर पर व्याकरण शिक्षण के लिए पढ़ाए जा रहे पाठ के संदर्भ में आए किसी व्याकरणिक बिंदु को स्पष्ट करना सर्वाधिक प्रभावी है।
व्याकरण किसी भाषा के बोलने तथा लिखने के नियमों की व्यवस्थित पद्धति है अर्थात व्याकरण भाषा को व्यवस्थित करने का कार्य करती है। उच्च प्राथमिक स्तर पर हिंदी भाषा शिक्षण का महत्वपूर्ण उद्देश्य बच्चों को हिंदी भाषा के विविध स्वरूपों की जानकारी देना है। 

• उच्च प्राथमिक स्तर पर व्याकरण शिक्षण के लिए पढ़ाए जा रहे पाठ के संदर्भ में व्याकरणिक बिंदु को स्पष्ट करना सर्वाधिक प्रभावी तरीका है।
• यह तरीका 'संदर्भ में व्याकरण' को पोषित करता है अर्थात पाठ में निहित व्याकरणिक नियमों का उल्लेख कर व्याकरण सीखने पर बल देता है।
• शिक्षण कार्य या पाठ के दौरान पाठ में आने वाले शब्दों का उपसर्ग-प्रत्यय, संधिविच्छेद, आदि बताकर व्याकरणिक नियमों को आसानी से समझने में सहयोग करता है।

From the lines, "Similarly, I owe a duty to my parents—to be obedient and respectful to them. This duty originates from the sense of responsibility which is directly related to our conscience."

'The prospect of a future generation' suggests that the writer is nationalistic in his/her outlook.

• Option 1 is true as per the passage, which states that "we live in a hyperconnected era, where the boundary between the real and virtual worlds is increasingly blurred."
• Option 2 is also true. The passage mentions that digital platforms have "catapulted us into an era of unprecedented convenience and opportunity."
• Option 3 is incorrect. The passage portrays information overload and digital fatigue as potential pitfalls or negative consequences of the digital revolution, not as positive outcomes.
• Option 4 is indeed true according to the passage, which concludes with the assertion that "it's how we use it [technology] that ultimately defines its impact."

Therefore, the statement in Option 3 is false.

It is generally accepted that a precis should be a third of the passage given. If the original passage has 300 words, the precis should not be more than 110 words in length.

Quaint means old-fashioned and unusual. So, modern is the word which is opposite in meaning to the given word. Unfamous is the opposite of famous. Small and real are not opposites of quaint. 

Classroom Discussions play a vital role in shaping or constructing the overall personality of a child. The discussions help the child to not only presents his or her point of view but to get an idea of other's perception as well and this helps in shaping the all-round thinking of a child.
Gender Bias:

• It refers to the belief that someone prioritizes one gender more than another. 
• It is a form of unconscious bias, or implicit bias, which occurs when one individual attributes certain attitudes and stereotypes to another person or group of people.
• It is a preference or prejudice toward one gender over the other for example preferring boys over girls during an activity. Bias can be conscious or unconscious and may manifest in many ways, both subtle and obvious.

Examples of Gender Bias in Teaching and at school:

• Stereotypical expressions of male and female characters in textbook content.
• Assigning work differentially to boys and girls.
• Girls being given lesser opportunities to participate in school and classroom events.

Gender Constancy: The concept of gender constancy refers to a cognitive stage of development of children at which they come to understand that their gender (meaning their biological sex) is fixed and cannot change over time.
Gender Relevance: It is an important consideration in development. It is a way of looking at how social norms and power structures impact on the lives and opportunities available to different groups of men and women.
Gender Identity: It is a personal conception of oneself as male or female. This concept is intimately related to the concept of gender role, which is defined as the outward manifestations of personality that reflect gender identity.
So, during a classroom discussion if a teacher pays more attention to boys than girls then it will be regarded as an example of Gender Bias.

A method of teaching refers to the systematic and organized approach used by a teacher to deliver instructional content, facilitate learning, and achieve desired educational objectives in a structured manner.

To be marginalised is to be forced to occupy the sides or fringes and thus not be at the centre of things.

• In the social environment too, groups of people or communities may have the experience of being excluded.
• Their marginalisation can be because they speak a different language, follow different customs or belong to a different religious group from the majority community.
• They may also feel marginalised because they are poor, considered to be of ‘low’ social status and viewed as being less human than others.
• Sometimes, marginalised groups are viewed with hostility and fear.
• This sense of difference and exclusion leads to communities not having access to resources and opportunities and in their inability to assert their rights.
• They experience a sense of disadvantage and powerlessness vis-a-vis more powerful and dominant sections of the society; who own land, are wealthy, better educated and politically powerful.
• Thus, marginalisation is seldom experienced in one sphere.
• Economic, social, cultural and political factors work together to make certain groups in society feel marginalised.

Thus, option 4 is correct.

Silent Valley National Park is a national park with a core zone of 236.74 square kilometres (91 sq. mi) (making it the second largest national park in Kerala). It is located in the Nilgiri Hills, within the Palakkad District of Kerala, South India.

• The invention of the spinning jenny by James Hargreaves in 1764 enhanced the output of the conventional spindles.
• John Kaye invented the spinning frame in the year 1767.
• A single worker could run a spinning jenny, a machine with numerous spindles on which thread was spun, and as the wheel was turned, all the spindles rotated.
• One of the major advancements in the early Industrial Revolution's industrialization of textile production was the multi-spindle spinning frame known as the spinning jenny. With the ability to work eight or more spools at simultaneously, this equipment lowered the amount of labour required to create cloth.
• On 7 July 1854 at Tardeo, Cowasjee Nanabhoy Davar founded Bombay Spinning and Weaving Company, the city's first cotton mill (1815-73).
• Sir William Fairbaim created the design for the Bombay Spinning and Weaving Company, and this mill started operating on February 7, 1856, under the direction of British engineers and expert cotton workers.

Marble is a metamorphic rock composed of recrystallised carbonate minerals, most commonly calcite or dolomite.

This is an inappropriate statement, and hence the correct answer. Social Science lets the students know about our pasts, and not about the lives of kings and battles. Without the knowledge of history we cannot have the background of our religion, customs institutions, administration and so on. Our present conditions are thus the result of the past problems.

Adiabatic Lapse Rate (ALR):

• The lapse rate is the rate of temperature change that is seen as an object rises through the Earth's atmosphere.
• The lapse rate is positive when the temperature is regarded as decreasing with height when.
• When constant with elevation it is zero and increasing with elevation when it is negative (temperature inversion).
• Radiation, convection, and condensation all have an impact on the lapse rate (ALR).
• The troposphere has an average lapse rate of  6.5 °C/km.

Dry Adiabatic Lapse Rate (DALR):

• The rate at which the temperature falls with altitude for a parcel of dry or unsaturated air.
• Air with less moisture that is rising under adiabatic conditions is known as the dry adiabatic lapse rate (DALR).
• Relative humidity in unsaturated air is less than 100%.
• The Earth's atmosphere has a dry adiabatic lapse rate of 10° C/km. 
• The dry adiabatic lapse rate is related to stable conditions.

Wet Adiabatic Lapse Rate (WALR):

• Some of the water vapour will condense and produce latent heat when a water-filled air parcel rises.
• The parcel cools more slowly as a result of this process than it would if it weren't saturated.
• Because the amount of water vapour in the air is so varied, the moist adiabatic lapse rate changes greatly.
• The adiabatic lapse rate decreases as the amount of vapour increases. WALR is 4° C/km on average.
• It is mainly associated with unstable conditions.

Stable and Unstable Conditions:

• When the ALR > DALR, it results in anti-cyclonic conditions. Hence, option 1 is incorrect.
• When the WALR > ALR, it results in cyclonic conditions. Hence, option 3 is correct.
• When the DALR > ALR > WALR, it results in conditional stability with anti-cyclonic conditions. Hence, option 2 is incorrect.
• When the DALR > WALR, it results in anti-cyclonic conditions. Hence, option 4 is incorrect.

Reliability refers to the consistency or stability of a test's results over time. It is important to ensure that the test measures what it intends to measure and produces consistent results each time it is administered. This is particularly important for objective-type tests where the results are based on the objective scoring of the test takers' responses.

History is a continuous process of interaction between historians and their facts, an unending dialogue between the present and the past.

• History teaching aims to stimulate the children’s interest and understanding of the life of people who lived in the past.

Khan Abdul Ghaffar Khan started a powerful non-violent movement in North-West Frontier Province, known as Khudai-Khidmatgar Movement.
Ghaffar Khan's goal was the formation of a united, independent, secular India. To achieve this end, he founded the Khudai-Khidmatgar ("Servants of God"), commonly known as the "Red Shirts" (Surkh Pōsh), during the 1920s.

The atmosphere around the earth:

• The atmosphere consists of different layers with varying densities and temperatures.
• The column of the atmosphere is divided into five different layers depending upon the temperature condition.
• They are troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, and exosphere.

There are many harbours and ports in Atlantic Ocean because the coast line of the Atlantic Ocean has such an indented pattern which makes it suitable for natural harbours. These indents are also deep. Hence, there is a geographical advantage and humans are making use of it.

Right to Property was removed from Part III of the Constitution by the 44th Amendment in 1978.
