1. Read the passage given below :   
Sifting through the sands of time 
1 ntains, 
skeletons of marine animals, even tiny diamonds. Sand provides a 
mineral treasure- -changing processes. 
2 Sand : as children we play on it and as adults we relax on it. It is 
something we complain about when it gets in our food, and praise 
we would discover an account of a geological past and a history of 
marine life that goes back thousands and, in some cases, millions of 
years.  
3 Sand covers not just sea-shores, but also ocean beds, deserts and 
mountains. It is one of the most common substances on Earth. And it 
is a major element in man-made items too  concrete is largely sand, 
while glass is made of little else. 
4 What exactly is sand ? Well, it is larger than fine dust and smaller 
than shingle. Depending on its age and origin, a particular sand can 
consist of tiny pebbles or porous granules. Its grain may have the 
shape of stars or spirals, their edges jagged or smooth. They have 
come from the erosion of rocks, or from the skeletons of marine 
organisms which accumulate on the bottom of the oceans, or even 
from volcanic eruptions.  
5 
grains may be derived from nearby coral outcrops, from crystalline 
quartz rocks or from gypsum. On Pacific islands jet black sands form 
from volcanic minerals.  
6 Usually, the older the granules, the finer they are and the smoother 
the edges. The fine, white beaches, for instance, are recycled from 
sandstone several hundred million years old. Perhaps they will be 
stone once more, in another few hundred million.  
7 Sand is an irreplaceable industrial ingredient whose uses are legion : 
but it has one vital function you might never even notice. Sand 
does a better job of protecting our shores than the most advanced 
coastal technology.

          Extraction And Purification Of Drinking Water  
1 Some consumers choose to purchase bottled drinking water, rather 
than relying on city tap water supplies. Bottled water has typically 
been extracted from underground sources. If water exists 
underground, but has no natural exit points, bottling companies may 
construct a water table well by drilling down to extract water from an 
unconfined aquifer. This is done when the 
 known as a water table  
In some cases, as with a valley or gully on a mountain, the level of the 
spring can emerge. Bottling companies are permitted to extract this 
water from a hole drilled into the underground spring, but the 
composition of the water must be identical to that of the naturally 
surfacing variety nearby.  
2 Artesian water is drawn from a confined aquifer, a deep underground 
cavity of porous rock that holds water and bears pressure from a 
confining layer above it. This water can be accessed if companies drill 
a vertical channel down into the confined aquifer. Due to the 
pressurised nature of this aquifer, water will often rise up from 
within it and form a flowing artesian well, which appears as an 
explosive fountain at the E
when the surface is lower than the natural water table. If the surface 
is not lower than the natural water table, it is still possible to draw 
artesian water by using an extraction pump.

been subjected to a variety of cleansing processes. A common filtering 
procedure, known as reverse osmosis, involves the water being 
pressed through microscopic membranes that prevent larger 
contaminants from passing through. The microscopic size of these 
holes is such that they can even obstruct germs, but they are most 
effective against undesirable materials such as salt, nitrates and lime 
scale. One disadvantage of reverse osmosis is that a lot of unusable 
water is generated as a by-product of the procedure; this must be 
thrown away.  
4 For treating pathogens, an impressive newer option is ultraviolet 
(UV) light. Powerful UV light has natural antibacterial qualities, so 
this process simply requires water to be subjected to a sufficient 
strength of UV light as it passes through a treatment chamber. The 
light neutralises many harmful germs by removing their DNA, 
thereby impeding their ability to replicate. A particularly impressive 
quality of UV light is its ability to neutralise highly resistant viral 
agents such as hepatitis.  
5 The overall effects of UV light treatment are variable, however, which 
leaves many municipal water treatment processes relying on 
chlorination. Its powerful and comprehensive antimicrobial effect 
notwithstanding, chlorination is also extremely inexpensive and 
remains the only antimicrobial treatment capable of ensuring water 
remains contaminant-free all the way through the pipes and to the 
taps of domestic homes. Many members of the public remain 
suspicious of water that has been treated with such a harsh chemical. 
Its ease of use and affordability has meant that chlorine often plays 
an important role in making tainted water supplies safe for 
consumption immediately after natural disasters have occurred.  
 On the basis of your understanding of the passage, answer any five 
questions from the six given below : 5 1=5 
(i) Under what conditions does a natural spring emerge ? 
(ii) What is a confined aquifer ? 
(iii) What forms a flowing artesian well ?  
(iv)  
(v) How are pathogens treated ? 
(vi) Why is municipal water treated by chlorination ?
