Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer to each question out of the four alternatives.<\/p>\n The problem of water pollution by pesticides can be understood only in context, as part of the whole to which it belongs \u2013 the pollution of the total environment of mankind. The pollution entering our waterways comes from many sources, radioactive wastes from reactors, laboratories, and hospitals; fallout from nuclear explosions; doemstic wastes from cities and towns; chemical wastes from factories. To these is added a new kid of fallout \u2013 the chemcial sprays applied to crop lands and gardens, forests and fields. Many of the chemical agents in this alarming melange initiate and augment the harmful effects of radiation, and within the groups of chemicals themselves there are sinister and little \u2013 understood interactions, transformations, and summations of effect.<\/p>\n Ever since the chemists began to manufacture substances that nature never invented, the problem of water purification have become complex and the danger to users of water has increased. As we have seen, the production of these synthetic chemicals in large volume began in the 1940\u2019s. It has now reached such proportion that an appalling deluge of chemical pollution is daily poured into the nation\u2019s waterways. When inextricably mixed with domestic and other wastes discharged into the same water, these chemicals sometiems defy detection by the methods in ordinary use by purification plants. Most of them are so complex that they cannot be identified. In rivers, a really incredible variety of pollutants combine to produce deposits that sanitary engineers can only despairingly Question 14:\u00a0<\/b>The main argument of paragraph 1 is:<\/p>\n a)\u00a0that there are sinister interaction in the use of chemicals<\/p>\n b)\u00a0that there are numerous reasons for contamination of water supplies<\/p>\n c)\u00a0that there are many dangers from nuclear fallout<\/p>\n d)\u00a0that pesticides are dangerous<\/p>\n Question 15:\u00a0<\/b>From the given answer figures, select the one in which the question figure is hidden\/embedded a)\u00a0 b)\u00a0 c)\u00a0 d)\u00a0 Question 16:\u00a0<\/b>How many 9\u2019s are followed by and preceeded by numbers divisible by 2 ? a)\u00a06<\/p>\n b)\u00a08<\/p>\n c)\u00a010<\/p>\n d)\u00a012<\/p>\n Question 17:\u00a0<\/b>In the following list of English alphabets, one alphabet has not been used.
