Karnataka TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 2 (Science and Mathematics) - Question 1

Psychosocial theory emphasises on which of the following?

Detailed Solution for Karnataka TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 2 (Science and Mathematics) - Question 1

Erikson's (1959) theory of psychosocial development has eight distinct stages. Like Freud, Erikson assumed that a crisis occurs at each stage of development. For Erikson (1963), these crisis are of a psychosocial nature because they involve psychological needs of the individual (i.e. psycho) conflicting with the needs of society (i.e. social).
Industry (competence) vs. Inferiority
It is the 4th stage out of eight. It is at this stage that the child's peer group will gain greater significance and will become a major source of the child's self esteem. The child now feels the need to win approval by demonstrating specific competencies that are valued by society, and begin to develop a sense of pride in their accomplishments.

Karnataka TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 2 (Science and Mathematics) - Question 3

Which of the sequence is appropriate when development proceeds from the centre to the peripheral areas of the body?

Detailed Solution for Karnataka TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 2 (Science and Mathematics) - Question 3

The term development” is generally used to refer to the dynamic process by which an individual grows and changes throughout its lifespan. It is often thought of as the process of qualitative change taking place from conception to death. In this way, development is a broad term and deals with all areas including physical, motor, cognitive, physiological, social, emotional, and personality. It should be noted that developments in all these areas are interrelated. 

Cephalo - Caudal Sequence: The direction of development is from head to limbs i.e, in a longitudinal axis called ‘cephalocaudal.
Proximo distal Sequence: The spinal cord develops before the outer parts of the body. The child's arms develop before the hands and the hands and feet develop before the fingers and toes.  The development direction is from the center to the periphery called ‘proximodistal’.
Locomotion Sequence: Various kinds of motions such as walking, running, jumping, swimming, etc. by the body are known as locomotion. Movement is one of the characteristic features of all living organisms. Locomotion helps us to move from one place to another.
Bilateral Sequence: The human body plan is bilateral with symmetrical sense organs, a fast responding brain, half the body weight in muscles, a powerful heart, miles of arteries and veins, and a brain that coordinates it all.

So, we can conclude that the Proximo distal Sequence is appropriate when development proceeds from the center to the peripheral areas of the body.

Meaning of stagnation in education is:

Detailed Solution for Karnataka TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 2 (Science and Mathematics) - Question 7

Stagnation stands for the retention of a child in a class for a period of more than one year. Gradually when a student takes more than one year to pass a class it is considered a case of stagnation.

Stagnation is one of the most acute problems of tribal education. Absenteeism leads to stagnation and both naturally lead to wastage.
Formerly stagnation used to occur due to lower achievement in the examinations. It means those who fail to secure minimum marks in the class tests will not be sent for the terminal examination and such candidates will have to remain in the same standard for one more year.
But this practice is now stopped, whether a student secures minimum marks in the class tests or not he/she is eligible to sit for terminal examinations. At present minimum attendance is prescribed for students for promotion.

So, it could be concluded that retention of a child in a same class for more than one year is the meaning of stagnation in education.

Karnataka TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 2 (Science and Mathematics) - Question 12

किसी उत्पाद का इस्तेमाल करके उपभोक्ता भी बाजार में भागीदार बन जाता है। यदि उपभोक्ता नही होंगे तो किसी भी कंपनी का अस्तित्व नही होगा। जहाँ तक उपभोक्ता के अधिकार का सवाल है तो उपभोक्ता की स्थिति दयनीय ही कही जायेगी। इसको समझने के लिए आप वैसे दुकानदार का उदाहरण ले सकते है जो कम वजन तौलता है या वह कम्पनी जो अपने पैक पर झूठे वादे करती है। ज्यादातर मिठाई बेचने वाले कच्चे माल में मिलावट करके लड्डू या बर्फी बनाते है। कुछ वर्षो पहले मिलावटी सरसों तेल से फैलने वाली ड्रॉप्सी नाम की बीमारी आपको याद होगी। यदि आपने कभी ट्रेन से सफर किया होगा तो आपको पता होगा कि ट्रेन में बिकने वाले खाने पीने की ज्यादातर चीजे घटिया होती है। यहाँ तक की पैंट्री में मिलने वाला खाना भी घटिया क्वालिटी का होता है। भारत में मिलावट, कालाबाजारी, जमाखोरी, कम वजन आदि की पुरानी परम्परा रही है। 1960 के दशक से भारत में उपभोक्ता आन्दोलन शुरू हुए थे। 1970 के दशक तक उपभोक्ता आन्दोलन केवल आर्टिकल लिखने और प्रदर्शनी लगाने तक ही सीमित था। लेकिन हाल के वर्षो में उपभोक्ता संगठनों की संख्या में तेजी से उछाल आया है।
विक्रेताओं और सेवा प्रदाताओं से लोगो में इतनी अधिक असंतुष्टि थी कि उपभोक्ताओं के पास अपनी आवाज उठाने के सिवा और कोई रास्ता नही बचा था। कई वर्षो के लम्बे संघर्ष के बाद सरकार को इसकी खैर लेने के लिए बाधित होना पड़ा और इसकी परिणति के रूप में 1986 में कंज्यूमर प्रोटेक्शन एक्ट (कोपरा) को लागू किया गया। एक उपभोक्ता को किसी उत्पाद के बारे में सही जानकारी पाने का अधिकार होता है। अब ऐसे कानून है जो किसी उत्पाद के पैक पर अवयवों और सुरक्षा के बारे में जानकारी देना अनिवार्य बनाते है। सही सूचना से उपभोक्ता को किसी भी उत्पाद को खरीदने के लिए उचित निर्णय लेने में मदद मिलती है। किसी भी उत्पाद के पैक पर खुदरा मूल्य लिखना भी अनिवार्य होता है। यदि कूई दुकानदार एमआरपी से अधिक चार्ज करता है तो उपभोक्ता उसकी शिकायत कर सकता है। एक उपभोक्ता को विभिन्न विकल्पों में से चुनने का अधिकार होता है। कोई भी विक्रेता केवल एक ही ब्रांड पेश नही कर सकता है। उसे अपने ग्राहक को कई विकल्प देने होगे। इस अधिकार को मोनोपोली ट्रेंड के खिलाफ बने कानूनों के जरिये लागू किया जाता है।

Q. दुकानदार से उसकी शिकायत करने पर आपको उसका क्या झेलना पडा होगा?

Detailed Solution for Karnataka TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 2 (Science and Mathematics) - Question 12
उपर्युक्त गद्यांश के अनुसार दुकानदार से उसकी शिकायत करने पर हमें उसका दुर्व्यवहार झेलना पड़ता है।
अर्थात दुकानदार की शिकायत करने पर उपभोक्ताओं को उनका दुर्व्यवहार झेलना पड़ता है।
Karnataka TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 2 (Science and Mathematics) - Question 13

निर्देश: गद्यांश को पढ़िए और नीचे दिए गए प्रश्न का उत्तर दीजिए।
प्रेम आत्मा का भोजन है, प्रेम परमात्मा की ऊर्जा है जिससे प्रकृति का सारा सृजन होता है। आध्यात्म जगत में प्रेम से ज्यादा महत्त्वपूर्ण कोई शब्द नहीं है। यही वह रसायन है जो आत्मा को परमात्मा से जोड़ देता है। जब आप प्रेम में उतर जाते हो तो प्रेम का प्रत्युत्तर अपने आप आना शुरू हो जाता है। आप सद्गुरु की आँखों में प्रेम से झांकते हो तो सद्गुरु की प्रेम ऊर्जा आपको ऐसे लपेटने लगती है कि आप मंत्रमुग्ध होकर उसी के हो जाते हो। सद्गुरु को पकड़ो। पकड़ने का अर्थ है – सबसे पहले वहां साष्टांग हो जाओ, झुक जाओ यानि अहंकार के विसर्जन का, प्रेम का, प्रीती का अभ्यास सद्गुरु के चरणों से शुरू करो।  एक बात और है – प्रेम करना नहीं होता, प्रेम तो स्वयं हो जाता है। लेकिन इस प्रेम के होने में बुद्धि सबसे बड़ी बाधा बन जाती है। बुद्धि सोच विचार करती है। तर्क वितर्क करती है, वह खुले ह्रदय से अनुभव नहीं करने देती है।  बुद्धि बंधन है, उसी से मुक्त होना है और उपलब्ध रहना है उन प्रेम के क्षणों में। प्रेम की भूल-भुलैया का जरा अनुभव तो करो, लेकिन बुद्धि से नहीं, ह्रदय खोलकर प्रेम का दिया बनो। प्रेम का अर्थ होता है – दूसरों को इतना अपना बना लेना कि कुछ छिपाने को बचे ही नहीं। एक कसौटी दे रहा हूँ आपको, जब आपको लगने लगे कि उससे छिपाने को कुछ भी नहीं रहा तब समझना कि आपको सच्चे अर्थों में प्रेम हो गया है। सद्गुरु ही एकमात्र व्यक्तित्व है जो निःस्वार्थ प्रेम करता है।  उसे आपसे कुछ पाना नहीं है। उसे तो अपना सब कुछ आपके ऊपर लुटाना है। उसके प्रति प्रेम करने में कठिनाई का अनुभव नहीं होना चाहिए। वह तो खूँटी है। उसी खूँटी से अभ्यास करो। ऋषियों ने कहा है, प्रकृति से प्रेम करो।  फिर धीरे-धीरे मनुष्य पर आओ। मनुष्य से आकर आप सीधे परमात्मा तक पहुंचोगे। ऋषियों ने पहाड़ों को पूजा, नदियों को पूजा, वृक्षों को पूजा, चाँद-तारों को पूजा। किसलिए? उन्होंने सन्देश दिया कि सारी पृथ्वी से प्रेम करो। विराट अस्तित्व ही परमात्मा है। सबके प्रति प्रेम से इतना भर जाओ कि आपकी लय, आपका संगीत, आपका छंद उस परमात्मा से जुड़ जाये।  जो-जो शरीर में है वह सब ब्रह्मांड में है। सारे धर्म इसी बात का विज्ञान हैं और कुछ नहीं। प्रेम की एक ही साधना है, एक ही संकल्पना है जिसके साध लेने पर आध्यात्म की सारी साधनाएँ प्रकट हो जायेंगी।

Q. आध्यात्म जगत में सबसे महत्त्वपूर्ण क्या है?

Detailed Solution for Karnataka TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 2 (Science and Mathematics) - Question 13

गद्यांश के अनुसार, "आध्यात्म जगत में प्रेम से ज्यादा महत्त्वपूर्ण कोई शब्द नहीं है।"
इसलिए, यह निष्कर्ष निकाला जा सकता है कि आध्यात्म जगत में सबसे महत्त्वपूर्ण प्रेम है।

कुमार किसी पठन सामग्री में से किसी शब्द विशेष की पहचान कर लेता है या जब कुछ बोला जाए तब भी शब्द विशेष की पहचान कर लेता है परन्तु स्वयं की भाषा में इसका प्रयोग नहीं कर पता है। आप इस शब्द संपदा को क्या कहेंगे?

Detailed Solution for Karnataka TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 2 (Science and Mathematics) - Question 16

कुमार किसी पठन सामग्री में से किसी शब्द विशेष की पहचान कर लेता है या जब कुछ बोला जाए तब भी शब्द विशेष की पहचान कर लेता है परन्तु स्वयं की भाषा में इसका प्रयोग नहीं कर पता है। आप इस शब्द संपदा को निष्क्रिय शब्द-संपदा कहेंगे।
शब्द संपदा (शब्दकोश, शब्दावली) शब्दों का एक सेट है जो एक व्यक्ति अपने भाषण में समझता है और उपयोग करता है।
शब्द संपदा आमतौर पर दो प्रकारों में विभाजित होती है: सक्रिय और निष्क्रिय।

सक्रिय शब्दावली - ये ऐसे शब्द हैं जो एक व्यक्ति नियमित रूप से मौखिक भाषण और लेखन में उपयोग करता है।
निष्क्रिय शब्दावली - यह उन शब्दों का सेट है जो एक व्यक्ति कान से या पढ़ते समय जानता और समझता है, लेकिन खुद उनका उपयोग नहीं करता है।
जॉन रेनॉल्ड्स और पेट्रीसिया एकर्स के अनुसार, "आपकी निष्क्रिय शब्दावली में सक्रिय से अधिक शब्द होने की संभावना है। अपने लेखन में शब्दावली की सीमा में सुधार करने का एक तरीका है अपने निष्क्रिय से सक्रिय शब्दावली में शब्दों को स्थानांतरित करने का प्रयास करना"

Karnataka TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 2 (Science and Mathematics) - Question 19

Directions: Read the passage given below and answer the question that follows.
Africa was once filled with an abundance of wild animals. But, that is changing fast. One of these animals, the black rhinoceros, lives on the plains of Africa. It has very poor eyesight and a very bad temper! Even though the black rhino is powerful, and can be dangerous, its strength cannot always help it to escape hunters. Some people think that the rhino’s horn has magical powers and many hunters kill rhinos for their valuable horns. This has caused the black rhino to be placed on the endangered species list. The elephant seems to represent all that is strong and wild in Africa. It once had no natural enemies, but is now endangered—killed for its ivory tusks. Wherever people are careless about the land, there are endangered species. Grizzly bears like to wander great distances. Each bear needs up to 1,500 square miles of territory to call its homeland. Today, because forests have been cleared to make room for people, the grizzly’s habitat is shrinking and the grizzly is disappearing. It joins other endangered North American animals, such as the red wolf and the American crocodile.
In South America, destruction of the rain forest threatens many animals. Unusual mammals, such as the howler monkey and the three-toed sloth, are endangered. Beautiful birds like the great green macaw and the golden parakeet are also becoming extinct. They are losing their homes in the rain forest and thousands die when they are caught and shipped off to be sold as exotic pets. The giant panda of Asia is a fascinating and unique animal. Yet, there are only about 1,000 still living in the wild. The giant panda’s diet consists mainly of the bamboo plant, so when the bamboo forests die, so does the panda. China is now making an effort to protect these special creatures from becoming extinct. Unfortunately, it is people who cause many of the problems that animals face. We alter and pollute their habitats. We hunt them for skins, tusks, furs and horns. We destroy animals that get in the way of farming or building. And we remove them from their natural habitats and take them home as pets.

Q. Which of the following questions is not a valid question?

Detailed Solution for Karnataka TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 2 (Science and Mathematics) - Question 19

Option (1) is the correct answer as the passage is about the destruction of habitat and threatened animals. It does not discuss wildlife in general. So, this question is invalid.

Language teaching refers to a process whereby a child gains communicative comprehension or fluency over a language. It involves practice by learners where facilitation is provided by a teacher. There are several methods of English language teaching and Communicative Approach is one of them.
The communicative approach is a method of language teaching which makes learners confident to communicate effectively by involving them in real communication.
It highlights the importance of real communication for learning to take place rather than emphasizing writing skills and grammatical aspects of communication.
In the communicative approach to ELT, development of language learning or teaching involves a shift from form-based to a meaning-based approach as it:

aims to strengthen fluency, not the accuracy.
promotes learners to encounter with real life situations.
focuses on communication rather than grammatical structures.
emphasizes the functional use of language in the real context.
prepares the learners for meaningful and authentic communicative activity.
lays emphasis on using language to communicate meaningfully in the target language.

⇒ a – 3.5, a – 3, a – 2.5, a – 2, a – 0.5, a + 0.5, a + 4, a + 5
Here, the n is 8, which is even
Median =  [(n/2)th + (n/2 + 1)th observations]/2
⇒ [(8/2) + (8/2 + 1)/2] term
⇒ 4th + 5th term
⇒ [(a – 2 + a – 0.5)/2]
⇒ [(2a – 2.5)/2]
⇒ a – 1.25
∴ The median of the data set is a – 1.25.

Detailed Solution for Karnataka TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 2 (Science and Mathematics) - Question 25

Given
A number consists of two digits whose sum is 7
If 9 is subtracted from the number, the digits are reversed.
Calculation
Let the digit at ones place be x
Then digit at tens place be 7 - x
⇒ The number = 10(7 - x) + x
⇒ 70 - 9x
⇒ The number obtained by reversing the digits
⇒ 10x + 7 - x = 9x + 7
According to question
⇒ It is given if 9 is subtracted from the number.,it's digits are interchanged
⇒ 70 - 9x - 9 = 9x + 7
⇒ 54 = 18x
⇒ x = 3
⇒ Digit at ones place = 3
⇒ Digit at tens place 7 - 3 = 4
∴ The number is 4 × 10 + 3 = 43

Karnataka TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 2 (Science and Mathematics) - Question 27

If 32400 = 2p × 3q × 5r where p, q and r are the natural numbers then what is the value of 2pq + 3qr ?

Detailed Solution for Karnataka TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 2 (Science and Mathematics) - Question 27

Given:
32400 = 2p × 3q × 5r
Concept:
"Prime Factorization" is the finding which prime numbers multiply together to make the original number.
Calculation:
32400 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 5 × 5
32400 = 24 × 34 × 52
Now comparing 24 × 34 × 52 with 2p × 3q × 5r
We get, p = 4, q = 4 and r = 2
⇒ 2pq + 3qr = 2 × 4 × 4 + 3 × 4 × 2
∴ 2pq + 3qr = 32 + 24 = 56
