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. किसी उत्पाद का इस्तेमाल करके बाजार में क्या बन जाता है?

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.

Direction: Read the passage and answer the questions that follow. Some words may be highlighted for you. Pay careful attention.
Elon Musk’s SpaceX has been testing the Starlink satellite broadband service which boasts of a speed boost of around 300mbps and latency reduction to around 20ms. Musk confirmed the speed boost in response to a tweet by a user who received the Starlink broadband kit in the United States and shared a screenshot of the service offering them broadband speeds of 130mbps. "Speed will double to ~300Mb/s & latency will drop to ~20ms later this year," he said. During the beta testing phase, Starlink offered users a broadband speed between 50mbps and 150mbps with the latency expected between 20ms and 40ms, depending on location. In this phase, the Starlink kit included a phased-arrayed satellite dish, a tripod and a Wi-Fi router. SpaceX says that the Starlink satellite broadband service will cover most of the Earth by the end of the year which means that the service could also be expanded in India although there is no confirmed roadmap for the same. SpaceX has already submitted its recommendations to the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) last year for introducing satellite broadband in India.
"Most of Earth by end of the year, all by next year, then it’s about densifying coverage. Important to note that cellular will always have the advantage in dense urban areas. Satellites are best for low to medium population density areas," tweeted Musk.

Q. Give another word for the underlined word in the given line - "SpaceX has already submitted its recommendations to the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) last year for introducing satellite broadband in India."

Direction: Read the following information carefully and answer the given questions.
Initiatives such as “4 per mille” and Terraton aim to sequester huge amounts of carbon in the soil. The 2018 U.S. Farm Bill includes the first-ever incentives for farmers to adopt practices aimed at improving soil health and sequestering carbon. But these initiatives are missing a key point: not all soil carbon is the same.
The very different lifetimes of particulate organic matter and mineral-associated organic matter have important implications for these efforts. For example, adding low-quality crop residues to agricultural fields would likely create more particulate organic matter than mineral-associated organic matter. This could increase soil carbon in the short term - but if that field later is disturbed by tilling, a lot of it would decompose and the benefit would be quickly reversed. The best practices focus on building up the mineral-associated organic matter for longer-term carbon storage, while also producing high-quality particulate organic matter with lots of nitrogen to help boost crop productivity.
Natural healthy soils show us that providing continuous and diverse plant inputs that reach all the way to deep soil is key for achieving both high mineral-associated organic matter storage and particulate organic matter recycling. There are many promising ways to do this, such as maintaining plant cover on fields year-round; growing diverse crops that include high-nitrogen legumes and perennials with deep roots; and minimizing tillage.
However, not all soils can accumulate both mineral-associated organic matter and particulate organic matter. Before implementing any management practices for carbon sequestration, participants should first assess the carbon storage potential of the local soil, much as a doctor studies a patient before prescribing a cure. Sequestering soil carbon effectively requires an understanding of how particulate organic matter and mineral-associated organic matter work, how human actions affect them, and how to build up both types to meet our planet’s climate and food security needs.

Q. Select the option whose meaning is opposite to the word 'accumulate'.

Directions: Read the passage given below and answer the question that follows.
Once upon a time, there lived a sparrow in a tree. He was very happy to have a beautiful and comfortable nest of his own in the tree. The sparrow used to fly to far off places to pick at grains from so many fields, full of crops. At the Sun set, he would return to his perch. One day, the sparrow ate his fill, but could not return to his nest because of the heavy rains which continued for the whole night. The sparrow had to spend the whole night in a big banyan tree a little distance away from home.
The next morning, when the rain stopped and the sky became clear, the sparrow returned to his tree. He was astonished to find a rabbit occupying his beautiful and comfortable nest. The sparrow lost his temper and spoke to the rabbit, "It's my home you're sitting in. Please quit this place at once".
"Do not talk like a fool", replied the rabbit. "Trees, rivers and lakes do not belong to anyone. Places like these are yours only so long as you are living in. If someone else occupies it in your absence, it belongs to the new occupant. So, go away and do not disturb me anymore".
But, the sparrow was not satisfied with this illogical reply. He said, "Let's ask a person of wisdom and only then our case will be settled".
At a distance from the tree, there lived a wild cat. The cat, somehow, overheard the discussion that took place between the sparrow and the rabbit.
The cat immediately thought of a plan, took a holy dip in the river, and then sat like a priest and began chanting God's name in a loud tone. When the rabbit and the sparrow heard the cat chanting God's name, they approached him with a hope to get impartial justice and requested him to pass a judgement in the matter.
The cat became very happy to have both of them in front of him. He pretended to listen to their arguments. But, as soon as the right opportunity came, the cat pounced upon both of them and killed and ate them together with great relish.

Q. This story can be used for teaching

In a classroom, while reading the text a teacher is emphasizing pronouns, determiners, and conjunctions. It means she is focusing over:

Direction: Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow by selecting the most appropriate options:
(1) We embarked along the sapphire route along National Highway 17 for a sun-soaked holiday. This route along Karnataka’s Karavali coast is India’s best beach and temple country. Flanked by the soaring Western Ghats on the east and the Arabian Sea on the west, the Karavali stretch is a scenic treat all the way.
(2) The first halt in our coastal circuit in Uttara Kannada district was Bhatkal. Bhatkal is where Konkani begins to share space with Tulu. A 4-km drive out of town took us to the beach and the small fishing wharf. At the bazaar, we tried out the two local specialities – date halwa and a salted roti. One also shouldn’t miss the Bhatkal biriyani.
(3) Gokarna is a charming little town with temples, a wide expanse of beach, two principal streets and clusters of traditional tile-roofed brick houses. You’ll also find quaint Udupi food joints, souvenir shops, and cyber cafes here.
(4) Once the ‘temple fatigue’ set in, we indulged in some sedate sea-watching. Om beach, one of Gokarna’s famed five, takes the shape of an ‘Om’, a spiritual symbol. The road twists through alleys, past people’s houses, temple chariots and ‘Way to Beach’ signs. The other pristine beaches, wedged between gigantic cliffs that protrude like delicate fingers into the sea, are Gokarna, Kudle, Half Moon and Paradise.
(5) The last halt in our coastal itinerary was Karwar. Karwar was the erstwhile trading outpost of foreigners. It is said that even the great explorer Vasco da Gama walked on the golden sands of Karwar. Apart from the excellent harbour, four beaches that offer sun, sand, surf and sport and five islands, Karwar has much more to offer.
(6) A short boat ride away you’ll find the excellent Devbagh Beach and five idyllic islands. With its pristine beach, and an eco-friendly resort with ethnic log huts, it is a romantic hideaway offering complete privacy and solitude sans the five-star trappings.
(7) We followed Tagore’s footsteps and took a boat cruise up the Kali from the mouth. We spotted dolphins as they gracefully dived into azure waters. From the island one can have a gorgeous view of the sea, sand and the neighbouring islands. As we returned from our coastal odyssey, we realised Karnataka is not short of fabulous beaches but lacks salesmen of its ravishing beauty.

Q. Which of the following words is an antonym to the word – 
‘quaint’

Everything that men do or think concerns either the satisfaction of the needs they feel or the need to escape from pain. This must be kept in mind when we seek to understand spiritual or intellectual movements and the way in which they develop, for feeling and longing are the motive forces of all human striving and productivity – however nobly these latter may display themselves to us.
What, then, are the feelings and the needs which have brought mankind to religious thought and to faith in the widest sense? A moment’s consideration shows that the most varied emotions stand at the cradle of religious thought and experience.
In primitive people, it is, first of all, fear that awakens religious ideas – fear of hunger, of wild animals, of illness, and of death. Since the understanding of causal connections is usually limited on this level of existence, the human soul forges a being, more or less like itself, on whose will and activities depend the experiences which it fears. One hopes to win the favor of this being, by deeds and sacrifices, which according to the tradition of the race are supposed to appease the being or to make him well disposed to man. I call this the religion of fear.
This religion is considerably established, though not caused, by the formation of priestly caste which claims to mediate between the people and the being they fear and so attains a position of power. Often a leader or despot will combine the function of the priesthood with its own temporal rule for the sake of greater security, or an alliance may exist between the interests of political power and the priestly caste.
Q. What feeling promoted primitive man to create religion?

Certain groups feels marginalised due to factors, like:
