Our thinking about the dimensions of emotional intelligence (El) and their accompanying competencies has evolved and streamlined as new data has been analysed. Readers familiar with earlier versions of emotional intelligence model will notice some changes here. Where we formerly listed five domains of El, we now have simplified the model into four domains: self-awareness, self-management, social awareness and relationship management with eighteen competencies instead of the original twenty five. For instance, an El domain would be social awareness; a competency in that domain would be empathy or service. The result is an El model that more clearly links specific clusters of competencies to the underlying brain dynamics that drive them. Recent findings about emotions and the brain make clearer the neurological basis of these competencies. This lets us sketch their dynamics more thoroughly, while providing practical guidelines for building leadership skills. These El competencies are not innate talents but learned abilities, each of which has a unique contribution to making leaders more resonant, and therefore more effective. Guided by the neurology underlying El framework, we can make a sharp distinction between what works and what does not when it comes to learning the art of leadership.
The basic argument in a nut shell is that primal leadership operates better through emotionally intelligent leaders who create resonance. Underlying that proposition is the theory of performance, one that surfaces the link between the neurology of the four fundamentals of emotional intelligence and the El competencies that build on these fundamentals. These El competencies are in turn the building blocks of the modes of leadership that foster resonance in the group. Interestingly, no leader we have ever encountered, no matter how outstanding, has strengths across board in every one of the many El competencies. Highly effective leaders typically exhibit a critical mass of strength in half a dozen or so El competencies. Moreover there is no fixed formula for great leadership: There are many paths to excellence and super leaders can possess very different personal styles. Still, we find that effective leaders typically demonstrate strengths in at least one competence from each of the four fundamental areas of emotional intelligence.

Directions: Read the given passage and answer the question that follows.
Worry has become the most dreaded part of human existence. In this age of hurry, competition and divided aims it has become synonymous with a disease personified. Medical researches have proved that worry is the single major cause of heart diseases, high blood pressure, rheumatism, ulcers, skin problems, bronchitis, asthma etc and other psychosomatic diseases. "Businessmen," writes Dr. Alexis Carrel, a Nobel Prize Winner in Medicine said, "who do not know how to fight worry die young". To corroborate Dr. Carrel, it can be said that lawyers, banking officials, clerks etc who do not control this die too, of course, in their youth.
What lies behind this state of mind is not difficult to guess. The fast-paced life style, competitive living, frustration or failure in things contribute largely to our anxieties. Shortages, fears imaginary or non-imaginary, dissatisfaction, verbal squabbles, all these add to the burden on the mind. The result is easily guessed; worry is contracted. Plato, the Greek philosopher had foreseen the need to control worry as far back as 400 BC. He had said, "The greatest mistake physicians make is that they attempt to cure the body without attempting to cure the mind. Mind and body are one and should not be treated separately."
This is the basis that laid the foundation stone of the modern methods of fighting psychosomatic diseases. The maxim 'A healthy body depends on a healthy mind' is the latest version than 'A healthy mind in a healthy body' that has gained ground in today's medical sciences.
Man is an emotional being. Emotions like futility, anxiety, frustration, depression, defeat, fear, worry are there which have come out of the modern life style to trap him. Worry is the single factor which creates tension and there starts the nightmare of diseases. The need of the hour is to avoid as much as possible this fountainhead of all diseases.

Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below:
Sociologists study how people get along together in groups. They study culture, social groups and how they affect individuals. The sociology of depression looks at the cultural context in which people live. It also looks at the social stresses that people encounter as a part of life. The sociological aspects of depression are both influenced by and also influence the other biological and psychological aspects of people's lives.
Culture and the ethnic group that people come from are important aspects of health and illness. A new branch of medicine, known as ethnomedicine, focuses on the role of culture, perception, and context in shaping someone's physical and mental health.
Previously, it was thought that depression primarily affected people in developed Western nations and that other cultures did not suffer from this condition. Ethnomedical studies suggest that this idea may have more to do cultural perceptions of what symptoms become labeled as a depressive disorder. It also has to do with how occurrences of depression are recorded for statistical purposes and how depression is thought of within particular cultures.
Ethnomedical research suggests that cultural differences in focusing on oneself and one's place within the social group are linked to the amount of depression that occurs. Some of this difference comes from the individualistic vs. collectivistic orientation of a particular culture. In Western cultures, individuals are ideally viewed as independent, separate people striving for individual achievement and success. In contrast, other cultures view the family or society as being of more importance than the individual. Many times, personal happiness is sacrificed for the good of the larger group in such cultures. Very little thought is given to particular individuals within such cultures. For example, in traditional Asian cultures it is common for one member of the family to work hard and share a paycheck with the entire extended family. Some authors suggest that because people from collectivistic cultures are not encouraged to place much importance on personal gratification, they do not spend time feeling frustrated about their failure to achieve personal success. As a result, the lack of focus on the self can lead to a decrease or absence of the development of depressive disorders.
Whereas social integration involves relationships characterized by closeness, support, and friendship, social stratification involves interactions featuring differences in power, status, and resources. A considerable body of research indicates that people who are more powerful, of higher status, and wealthier have mental health problems as compared with those who possess fewer resources. In addition, relationships that are relatively egalitarian promote more overall positive mental health than those that feature sharp distinctions in the amount of power and control that each member has.

Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below:
The phenomena of monsoon refer to the seasonal reversal of winds. It is because while the South West Monsoon winds blow from sea to land at the end of the summer season, the North east winds blow from land to sea during the winter season.
During the summer season the Indian mainland gets intensely heated up creating low pressure. High pressure area is created over the Indian Ocean due to the differential heating of the land and the sea. Because the winds blow from high pressure to low pressure areas, the South West Monsoon winds blow from the Sea towards the Indian mainland. When moisture laden winds strike the Western Ghats and the mountains of north eastern parts of the country, they shed their moisture causing rainfall on the places lying on the windward side of the mountains. The Monsoon is also aided by the Inter Tropical Convergence Zone or Monsoon trough near the Equator where winds from northern and southern hemisphere merge. During winters, the Indian mainland begins to cool down creating high pressure areas. Thus the north eastern winds blow from land and hence do not cause enough rainfall. They cause rainfall over the Coromandel Coast during winters.
Cloud droplets are tiny, only 1/100 mm in diameter, and are thus very light and practically float freely in the air. As the droplets collide, with time some grow larger than others and start to slowly fall, falling faster as they accumulate more and more droplets. If the cloud of droplets is dense enough to form droplets greater than 1/10 mm in diameter through this process, the droplets survive the fall through the air below the cloud, despite evaporation, and reach the ground as rain. This process develops what is known as ‘warm rain’, but in our part of the world it is responsible for only the weakest drizzle from near surface clouds. In the warm tropics it is responsible for intense rainfall from clouds lower than 5 km.
