मैं अटका कब, कब विचलित में, सतत डगर मेरी संबल
रोक सकी पगले कब मुझको यह युग की प्राचीर निबल
आँधी हो, ओले-वर्षा हों, राह सुपरिचित है मेरी,
फिर मुझको क्या डरा सकेंगे ये जग के खंडन-मंडन।
मुझे डरा पाए कब अंधड़, ज्वालामुखियों के कंपन,
मुझे पथिक कब रोक सके हैं अग्निशिखाओं के नर्तन।
मैं बढ़ता अविराम निरंतर तन-मन में उन्माद लिए,

निर्देश: गद्यांश को पढ़कर निम्नलिखित प्रश्न में सबसे उचित विकल्प को चुनिए।
प्राचीन भारत में शिक्षा, ज्ञान प्राप्ति का सबसे बड़ा स्रोत माना जाता था। व्यक्ति के जीवन को सन्तुलित और श्रेष्ठ बनाने तथा एक नई दिशा प्रदान करने में शिक्षा का महत्त्वपूर्ण योगदान था। सामाजिक बुराइयों को उसकी जड़ों से निर्मूल करने और त्रुटिपूर्ण जीवन में सुधार करने के लिए शिक्षा की नितान्त आवश्यकता थी। यह एक ऐसी व्यवस्था थी, जिसके द्वारा सम्पूर्ण जीवन ही परिवर्तित किया जा सकता था। व्यक्ति को अपने व्यक्तित्व का विकास करने, वास्तविक ज्ञान को प्राप्त करने और अपनी समस्याओं को दूर करने के लिए शिक्षा पर निर्भर होना पड़ता था। आधुनिक युग की भाँति प्राचीन भारत में भी मनुष्य के चरित्र का उत्थान शिक्षा से ही सम्भव था। सामाजिक उत्तरदायित्वों को निष्ठापूर्वक वहन करना प्रत्येक मानव का परम उद्देश्य माना जाता है। इसके लिए भी शिक्षित होना नितान्त अनिवार्य है। जीवन की वास्तविकता को समझने में शिक्षा का उल्लेखनीय योगदान रहता है। भारतीय मनीषियों ने इस ओर अपना ध्यान केन्द्रित करके शिक्षा को समाज की आधारशिला के रूप में स्वीकार किया। विद्या का स्थान किसी भी वस्तु से बहुत ऊँचा बताया गया। प्रखर बुद्धि एवं सही विवेक के लिए शिक्षा की उपयोगिता को स्वीकार किया गया। यह माना गया कि शिक्षा ही मनुष्य की व्यावहारिक कर्तव्यों का पाठ पढ़ाने और सफल नागरिक बनाने में सक्षम है। इसके माध्यम से व्यक्ति का शारीरिक, मानसिक और आत्मिक अर्थात् सर्वांगीण विकास सम्भव है। शिक्षा ने ही प्राचीन संस्कृति को संरक्षण दिया और इसके प्रसार में मदद की। विद्या का आरम्भ ‘उपनयन संस्कार’ द्वारा होता था। उपनयन संस्कार के महत्त्व पर प्रकाश डालते हुए मनुस्मृति में उल्लेख मिलता है कि गर्भाधान संस्कार द्वारा तो व्यक्ति का शरीर उत्पन्न होता है पर उपनयन संस्कार द्वारा उसका आध्यात्मिक जन्म होता है। प्राचीन काल में बच्चों को शिक्षा प्राप्त करने के लिए आचार्य के पास भेजा जाता था। शतपथ ब्राह्मण के अनुसार, जो ब्रह्मचर्य ग्रहण करता है। वह लम्बी अवधि की यज्ञावधि ग्रहण करता है। छान्दोग्योपनिषद् में उल्लेख मिलता है कि आरुणि ने अपने पुत्र श्वेतकेतु को ब्रह्मचारी रूप से वेदाध्ययन के लिए गुरु के पास जाने को प्रेरित किया था। आचार्य के पास रहते हुए ब्रह्मचारी को तप और साधना का जीवन बिताते हुए विद्याध्ययन में तल्लीन रहना पड़ता था। इस अवस्था में बालक जो ज्ञानार्जन करता था उसका लाभ उसको जीवन भर  मिलता था। गुरु गृह में निवास करते हुए विद्यार्थी समाज के निकट सम्पर्क में आता था। गुरु के लिए समिधा, जल का लाना तथा गृह-कार्य करना उसका कर्त्तव्य माना जाता था। गृहस्थ धर्म की शिक्षा के साथ-साथ वह श्रम और सेवा का पाठ पढ़ता था। शिक्षा केवल सैद्धान्तिक और पुस्तकीय न होकर जीवन की वास्तविकताओं के निकट होती थी।

Q. प्राचीन भारत में शिक्षा ________ होती थी।

Detailed Solution for Karnataka TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 6 (Science and Mathematics) - Question 4

Karnataka TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 6 (Science and Mathematics) - Question 9

बहुभाषिक कक्षा में एक बालक हिंदी तथा दूसरा हड़ौती बोली बोलता है। वैज्ञानिक दृष्टि से भाषा और बोली में-

Detailed Solution for Karnataka TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 6 (Science and Mathematics) - Question 9

'बोली' किसी भाषा का कोई प्रभेदक शैलीरूप न होकर स्वयं भाषा होती है जो अपने सामाजिक प्रकार्य में किसी अन्य भाषा पर आश्रित होती है। दूसरे शब्दों में यह कहा जा सकता है कि शुद्ध भाषावैज्ञानिक दृष्टि से इस संदर्भ में बोली और भाषा में भेद करता संभव नहीं। उदाहरण के लिए खड़ी बोली के रूप में मान्य जिसे हम हिंदी भाषा कहते हैं, उसमें ब्रज, अवधी, भोजपुरी, मैथिली आदि उसकी बोलियों में शब्द, रूपरचना या व्याकरण के आधार पर भाषा-बोली का भेद करना संभव नहीं। शुद्ध भाषिक रचना की दृष्टि से जिस प्रकार खड़ीबोली एक “भाषा” है उसी प्रकार ये बोलियाँ भी 'भाषा' हैं क्योंकि इनमें भी उसी प्रकार भाषिक प्रतीकों की संरचनात्मक व्यवस्था मिलती है, जिस प्रकार खड़ी बोली में।
अतः हम कह सकते हैं कि भाषा वैज्ञानिक दृष्टि से भाषा और बोली में- अंतर नहीं होता।

Karnataka TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 6 (Science and Mathematics) - Question 10

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.

Karnataka TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 6 (Science and Mathematics) - Question 16

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. What conclusion can be drawn from the given passage?

Detailed Solution for Karnataka TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 6 (Science and Mathematics) - Question 16

The correct answer is 'To meet our food security and climate needs proper balance between mineral and particulate-based organic matter is required, considering human interaction.'
Let's refer to the following lines of the passage:
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.

Karnataka TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 6 (Science and Mathematics) - Question 17

Which of the following are the ways to teach language to children in a classroom?
I. Teaching through activities
II. Telling the summary of the lesson after explaining it
III. Telling the children to study the lessons by themselves only
IV. Teaching them science instead of languages to boost their scientific analysis

Detailed Solution for Karnataka TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 6 (Science and Mathematics) - Question 17

There are many ways to teach language to children. Some of the ways are as follows:

  • Teaching through various activities, summarizing the lesson after explaining it, getting children to formulate answers to various types of questions, problem-solving techniques, making them undertake surveys, and the like.
  • Each technique belongs to a specific language teaching method that has a specific set of principles. Some teachers teach in ways that do not belong to any specific language teaching method.
  • In natural settings, children automatically acquire the rules of his/her language because there is considerable exposure, and because (s)he receives all the care and affection that makes language learning possible. Yet, without an innate faculty for language, it would be impossible to acquire structures as complex as those of language. We need to activate this language faculty optimally in school.
  • The teacher should pay attention to selecting and communicating study material. Analysis of study material should be minimum and children should be motivated to find and search for things independently.
  • The teacher must synchronize the mental level of children, their curiosity, their participation, her own intervention levels, challenging activities, and conceptual clarity.

From the above, we can it is clear that we can teach language to children in a classroom through activities and by telling the summary of the lesson after explaining it.

Karnataka TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 6 (Science and Mathematics) - Question 18

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. "temple fatigue" as mentioned in the passage means –

Detailed Solution for Karnataka TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 6 (Science and Mathematics) - Question 18

Neha, a language teacher tells her students to visit at least three schools in your neighborhood and find the difference in the English language proficiency of learners and teachers, languages known/spoken by learners, and languages used inside and outside the classroom in the school. She is focusing on:

Detailed Solution for Karnataka TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 6 (Science and Mathematics) - Question 20

India’s linguistic diversity is both a challenge and an opportunity in schooling. It is a challenge as the language-in-education policy could not, accommodate (all) the languages of the children in the curriculum and is merit and opportunity in terms of availability of languages in a typical Indian classroom where employing multilingualism as a strategy for teaching-learning of languages as well as the ‘content’ subject is possible and necessary. The language-in-education policy attempts to accommodate at least three languages within ten years of schooling. However, many tribal and minor languages are yet to find a place in the school curriculum.
If a teacher tells the students to visit at least three schools in your neighborhood and find the difference in the English language proficiency of learners and teachers, languages known/spoken by learners, and languages used inside and outside the classroom in the school then she is focusing on multilingualism and language education.

  • Multilingualism is a natural phenomenon that relates positively to cognitive flexibility and scholastic achievement.
  • Several recent studies have effectively demonstrated the positive relationship of bilingualism with cognitive growth and scholastic achievement. There is a highly positive relationship between bilingualism, cognitive flexibility, and scholastic achievement.
  • Bilingual children not only have control over several different languages but are also academically more creative and socially more tolerant.
  • The wide range of linguistic skills that they control equips them to negotiate different social situations more efficiently. 

Thus it is clear that Neha is focusing on multilingualism and language education.

Karnataka TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 6 (Science and Mathematics) - Question 21

The radius of curvature of the curved surface of a plano-convex lens is 20 cm. If the refractive index of the material of the lens be 1.5, then focal length of lens will be:

Detailed Solution for Karnataka TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 6 (Science and Mathematics) - Question 21
  • For a plano-convex lens, one of the surfaces is flat (Plano) and the other is curved (convex).
  • The radius of curvature of the curved surface is given as 20 cm, and the refractive index of the material of the lens is 1.5.
  • The focal length of the lens can be calculated using the lens maker's formula:

1/f = (n - 1) × (1/R1 - 1/R2)
where
f is the focal length of the lens,
n is the refractive index of the lens material,
R1 is the radius of curvature of the first surface (the flat surface in this case, which is infinite), and
R2 is the radius of curvature of the second surface (the curved surface in this case).
Since the first surface is flat, the radius of curvature R1 is infinite, and the term (1/R1) becomes zero. Therefore, the lens maker's formula simplifies to:
1/f = (n - 1) ×  (1/R2)------(1)
Calculation:
Substituting the values in equation (1), we get:
1/f = (1.5 - 1) × (1/20)
1/f = 0.025
f = 1/0.025
f = 40 cm
Therefore, the focal length of the plano-convex lens is 40 cm.
The correct answer is option (4)

  • This energy is used to synthesize (prepare) food from carbon dioxide and water. 
  • Since the synthesis of food occurs in the presence of sunlight, it is called photosynthesis.
  • Photo means light and Synthesis means to combine.
  • We find that chlorophyll, sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water are necessary to carry out the process of photosynthesis.
  • It is a unique process on the earth.
  • The solar energy is captured by the leaves and stored in the plant in the form of food.
  • Thus, the sun is the ultimate source of energy for all living organisms. 
  • By the middle of the nineteenth century, the key features of plant photosynthesis were known, namely, that plants could use light energy to make carbohydrates from CO2 and water.

Karnataka TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 6 (Science and Mathematics) - Question 28

Which among the following geographical events that occur due to convection:
1. Land breeze
2. Heat from the sun on Earth
3. Rainfall
4. Melting of glaciers
Select the correct answer using the codes given below:

Detailed Solution for Karnataka TET Paper 2 Mock Test - 6 (Science and Mathematics) - Question 28
  • Convection refers to a process by which heat is transferred by the movement of a heated fluid such as air or water.
  • Natural convection results from the tendency of most fluids to expand when heated i.e., to become less dense and to rise as a result of the increased buoyancy.

Examples of Convection:
Rainfall and thunderstorms:

  • Clouds are formed when water in the ocean gets warmed and rises up. These warm water droplets, in turn, saturate which leads to the formation of clouds.
  • The small clouds which are formed by this process collide with each other to develop bigger clouds. These large clouds which are commonly referred to as cumulonimbus result in rainfall and thunderstorm. Hence, 3 is correct. 

Melting of glaciers:

  • The melting of ice is yet another example of convection. The temperature of the surface or boundary of ice increases as warm air blows over the surface; or water, which is at a higher temperature as compared to the ice, flows underneath it.
  • As the temperature of the surface or boundary of ice alters, the ice melts. Hence, 4 is correct. 

Land and sea breeze:

  • During the day, the land gets heated faster than the water. The air over the land becomes hotter and rises up.
    • The cooler air from the sea rushes in towards the land to take its place. The warm air from the land moves towards the sea to complete the cycle. The air from the sea is called the sea breeze. 
  • At night it is exactly the reverse. The water cools down more slowly than the land. So, the cool air from the land moves towards the sea. This is called the land breeze. Hence, 1 is correct.

From the sun the heat comes to us through another process known as radiation.

  • It cannot reach us by conduction or convection as there is no medium such as air in most parts of the space between the earth and the sun.
  • The transfer of heat by radiation does not require any medium. It can take place whether a medium is present or not. Hence, 2 is not correct.
