लिंग्वाफोन: भाषा बोलना एक सक्रिय कौशल है, जिसे आप केवल अध्ययन करके नहीं बल्कि करके सीखते हैं। यह भाषा सीखने के लिए लिंग्वाफोन द्वारा अपनाया गया व्यावहारिक दृष्टिकोण है। लिंग्वाफोन भाषा को समझने में सक्षम बनाता है और भाषा बोलने वाले वास्तविक लोगों के साथ बातचीत करने और समझने में सक्षम है। यह उच्चारण, उच्चारण और इंटोनेशन सिखाने में मदद करता है।
इसलिए, यह स्पष्ट हो जाता है कि लिंग्वाफोन अंग्रेजी उच्चारण, उच्चारण और इंटोनेशन सिखाने में बहुत उपयोगी है।

विद्यार्थियों द्वारा सड़क को सरक बोलने का संभावित कारण उनकी मातृभाषा का प्रभाव हो सकता है क्योंकि बच्चों में उच्चारण संबंधी दोष का प्रमुख कारण प्रायः मातृभाषा तथा क्षेत्रीयता का प्रभाव ही होता है। अलग अलग जगहों पर एक ही शब्द का उच्चारण विभिन्न तरीके से किया जाता है, यही कारण है कि शब्दों के उच्चारण में इस बात का प्रभाव पड़ता है कि बच्चा किस क्षेत्र में रह रहा है और किस मातृभाषा का प्रयोग कर रहा है।

• उदाहरण: बिहार में 'ड़' को प्रायः 'र' बोला जाता है- लड़का  लरका, ‘सड़क’ को ‘सरक'
• भोजपुरी बोलने वाले लोग ने का प्रयोग कम करते हैं, तो पंजाबी क्षेत्र के लोग इसका अनावश्यक प्रयोग करते हैं, जैसे- हमने जाना है।
• इसी तरह कहीं ने के बदले ण का प्रयोग, स के बदले ह का प्रयोग, तो कहीं ए, औ और न के बदले ऐ, ओ, ण का प्रयोग आदि के कारण उच्चारण संबंधी दोष उत्पन्न होता है।
• उर्दु के कारण हिंदी का क, ख, ग- क़, ख़, ग़ हो गया है।
• अंग्रेजी के कारण आ का उच्चारण ऑ होने लगा है।

• The word "objective"  refers to being impartial and not influenced by personal feelings, interpretations, or prejudice.
  Example  -  An objective book review focuses solely on the content, style, and structure of the book, not the reviewer's personal preference for the genre.
• Option B, "Biased", means favoring one side unduly or prejudiced, which is the opposite of being objective or impartial.
  Example - A biased referee may unfairly favor one team, leading to uneven calls and penalties.

Therefore, the correct answer is Option 2.

The teacher must analyze their mistakes and will adopt a measure to rectify their mistakes. She should ignore the mistakes that occur due to interference of their first language, and later after seeing the pattern can give effective feedback.

• For students, feedback points out what they have done well and what they should keep doing, as well as what they should adjust and work on next.
• Including both positive and negative or corrective feedback can motivate students and promote a growth mindset, which enables them to see errors as opportunities to learn, grow, and improve.
• Feedback is also valuable for teachers. It gives them an opportunity to analyze student growth in terms of objectives they are trying to meet. It informs teachers about the strengths in the student’s work and the areas where more work is needed.
• Improving student learning is our ultimate reason to implement effective feedback in the classroom.
• Because of what we understand about the developmental nature and the role of errors in language learning, we recognize that feedback that is appropriate for English learners is also balanced, differentiated, and supportive.

To change this sentence to positive, we need to remove negation or 'not', without changing the meaning of the sentence. This is done in option (3).

Plate boundary: these are the zone of motion between two plates

• Constructive plate margins: the boundary between two divergent plate
• Destructive plate margins: the boundary between two convergent plates. These are related to the subduction of the denser plate along the zone of collision/ Benioff zone.
• Conservative plate margins: along which two plates slide each other, also known as parallel/transform fault boundaries

Plate margins and volcanic zones are closely related to each other. Most of the volcanic zones (80%) are located along convergent plate boundaries.

Social Science aims at linking the students with the real-life situations in order to better understand the subject.

Let the present age of Hamid = 'H' years
So, y = H + x
Or, H = y - x ...(i)
Now, age of Rani 15 years ago = (y - 15) years
Age of Hamid 15 years ago = (H - 15) years
So, (1/4) (y - 15) = (H - 15) ...(ii)
Putting the value of H as (y - x) from equation (i) into (ii), we get the following equation:
y - 15 = 4(y - x - 15) ...(iii)
Or, 3y - 4x = 45 which is exactly the same as the equation given in option (1).
Thus, option (1) is correct.

Muhammad bin Tughluq was the Sultan of Delhi from 1325 to 1351.
Muhammad Tughluq:

  • The Mongol army was defeated.
  • Muhammad Tughluq was confident about the strength of his army and his resources to plan an attack on Transoxiana.
  • He, therefore, raised a large standing army.  
• Rather than constructing a new garrison town, the oldest of the four cities of Delhi (Dehli-i Kuhna) was emptied of its residents and the soldiers garrisoned there.
  • The residents of the old city were sent to the new capital of Daulatabad in the south.
• Produce from the same area was collected as tax to feed the army.
  • But to meet the need of the large feed number of soldiers the Sultan levied additional taxes.
  • This coincided with famine in the area.
  • Muhammad Tughluq also paid his soldiers cash paid salaries.
  • But instead of controlling prices, he used a “token” currency, somewhat like present-day paper currency, but made out of cheap metals, not gold and silver.
  • People in the fourteenth century did not trust these coins.
  • They were very smart: they saved their gold and silver coins and paid all their taxes to the state with this token currency.
  • This cheap currency could also be counterfeited easily.
• Muhammad Tughluq’s administrative measures were a failure.
  • His campaign into Kashmir was a disaster.
  • He then gave up his plans to invade Transoxiana and disbanded his large army.
  • Meanwhile, his administrative measures created complications.
  • The shifting of people to Daulatabad was resented.
  • The raising of taxes and famine in the Ganga-Yamuna belt led to widespread rebellion.
  • And finally, the “token” currency had to be recalled.

Thus, we can conclude that statements A, C and D are correct.

Thus, we can conclude that among the given statements, the statement (A) is false, but the statement (B) is true.

Assessment of learning or performance refers to the collection of all possible data and evidence with respect to learning of concepts. These data may be numerical or quantitative like marks or scores and qualitative data like interest in learning of the concepts, interaction capability on the concepts learned involvement in subject-related activities and several other characteristics of the student which are the possible outcomes of learning of the concepts. Assessment becomes an integral part of instruction, as it determines whether or not the goals of education are being met.
While collecting the assessment information regarding the child, the following points should be kept in mind:

• The information or data for assessment of learning can be gathered from various sources using various tools and procedures like achievement tests, the participation of students in the classroom and other activities, his/her performance on project work and other assignments, and such other various situations where the student can show his/her learning performance. So, it is important to know the sources to collect information while assessing the child.
• Information can be collected through various ways, for instance, Teacher-led assessment (using a wide range of methods like written or verbal testing, interactions with students, assignments, observation of student’s activities, etc.), Learner self-assessment (self-reflection on own performance and on others judgments), Peer assessment (Assessment of classmates on the response and performance of the learner), Computer-based assessment (using specially designed software). Thus, the teacher should clearly determine the way through which the information will be collected.
• The teacher should specify the kind of information to be collected and the purpose of the assessment. 

From the above, it is clear that all the above points are true in the context of assessment.
