Direction: Read the following passages carefully and answer the question that follows.
Although an Eco-friendly process and one of the important ways to save the environment, recycling is not gaining pace in the industry. The recycling undergoes many process. First is collecting and sorting of garbage. This required a lot of manpower and tools which are expensive. Another disadvantage of recycling which makes it unviable is that for the manufacturers economically, the recycled material is not highly demanded since its quality is not as good as the original material. So, if the marketing of recycled goods is not worthwhile then the whole process of recycling cannot be economically efficient. Recycled products face other disadvantage as well, such life, difficult in de-linking the dyed products and less durability etc.
Why is the marketing of recycled products not worthwhile according to the author ?
1. The original products are being sold at a much lower price as compared to the recycled products.
2. The overall effects of recycle on the environment is detrimental rather than beneficial.
3. It does not give appropriate economic returns since recycled products lack demand in the market.
Q. Which of the above statement is/are correct ?
Direction: Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions. Your answer to these questions should be based on passage only.
A stout old lady was walking with her basket down the middle of a street in retrograde to the great confusion of the traffic and no small peril to herself. It was pointed out to her that the pavement was the place for foot-passengers, but she replied, 'I m going to walk where I like. We have got liberty now.' It did not occur to the dear lady that if liberty entitled the foot-passenger to walk down the middle of the the road it also entitled the taxi-drive on the pavement, and that the end of such liberty would be universal chaos. Everything would be getting in everybody else's way and nobody would get anywhere. Individual liberty would have become social anarchy
Q. It was pointed out to the lady that she should walk on the pavement because she was?

Direction: In 1900, to a shipping clerk---Alexander Fleming---a career in science seemed like a distant dream. Alexander the youngest son of a Scottish farmer from Ayrshire was born on 6, August, 1881. He was able to complete High school but then his family funds ran out. At sixteen he took a job as a shipping clerk and stayed there for four years. In 1901. Alexander came across a small legacy which enabled him to continue his education, and, on the advice of one of his brothers who was a doctor, he chose to prepare for a career in medicine. Alexander did unusually well in medical school along with rifle shooting, swimming, water polo and painting. After his graduation, his teacher Prof. Wright asked him to join him in bacteriological research, which he readily agreed.
Q. Whom should we thanks for enabling Alexader to fulfil his distance dream ?
Direction: Read the following passages carefully and answer the question that follows.
A new consciousness is to dawn. Science has not been able to demystify existence. This is now recognized not by ordinary technicians but by geniuses, because they are the pioneers; they can see the dawn very close by, they are the prophets. Albert Einstein said that science has failed in demystifying existence, that on the contrary, it has mystified things even more.
e.g., it was so easy-just 100 years ago-for the scientist to say that all is matter. Now matter has disappeared; in neon-physics there is no entity called matter. The deeper the physicist went into the world of matter, the less matter was found ; it is all pure energy . Can we define energy ? Energy can not be material; it is something totally different from matter . Matter is static, energy is dynamic; matter is a noun, energy is a verb. Matter is measurable. That is exactly, the meaning of the word 'matter'. It comes from 'measure', the root means 'measurable'. Matter can be measured, that's why it is called matter. Energy is immeasurable, it can not be called matter. Hence, physicists get more puzzled the more they probe into the world energy.

Direction: Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions. Your answer to these questions should be based on passage only.
In spring, polar bear mothers emerge from dens with three months old cubs. The mother bear has fasted for as long as eight months but that does not stop the young from demanding full access to her remaining reserves. If there are triplets, the most persistent stands to gain an extra meal and it may have the meal at the expense of other. The smallest of the litter forfeits many meals to stronger siblings. Females are protective of their cubs but tend to ignore family rivalry over food. In 21 years of photographing polar bears, I've only once seen the smallest of triplets survive till autumn.
