Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions which follow.
America presented itself as a virgin land to the original settlers from Europe. It had no history, no memories, no civilisation that appealed to European traditions or associations. Its inhabitants belonged evidently to the human brotherhood, and their appearance and language, as well as some of their customs, indicated Mongolian kinship and Asiatic origin, but in the eyes of their conquerors they were as strange as if they had sprung from another planet, and the invaders were equally strange and marvelous to the natives. To the Spanish adventurer the wondrous temples of the Aztecs and the Peruvians bore no significance, except as they indicated wealth to be won, and rich empires waiting to be prey to the superior prowess and arms of the Christian aggressor; while the Englishman, the Frenchman, Hollander and Swede, who planted their colors on more northern soil, saw only a region of primeval forests inhabited by tribes almost as savage as the wild beasts upon whom they existed.
The resemblance of the American Indians to the Tartar tribes in language is striking, and in physical appearance still more so, while the difference in manners and customs is no greater than that between the Englishman of the seventeenth century and his descendant in the mountains of West Virginia or Kentucky. It is probable—indeed what is known of the aborigines indicates, that the immigrations were successive, and their succession would be fully accounted for by the mighty convulsions among Asiatic nations, of which history gives us a very dim idea. It is easy to suppose that more than one dusky Eneas led his fugitive followers across the narrow strait which divides Asia from America, and pushed on to the warmer regions of the South, driving in turn before him less vigorous and warlike tribes, seizing the lands which they had made fruitful, and adopting in part the civilization which they had built up. Many of the conquered would prefer emigration to submission, and in their turn push farther south, even to the uttermost bound of the continent.
There was nothing in the civilisation of the most advanced American races worth preserving, except their monuments. The destruction of the Aztec and Peruvian empires was, on the whole, an advantage to humanity. The darkest period of religious persecution in Europe saw nothing to compare with the sanguinary rites of Aztec worship, and bigoted, intolerant and oppressive as the Spaniards were they did a service to mankind in putting an end to those barbarities. The colonial system established by Spain in America was founded on the principle that dominion over the American provinces was vested in the crown, not in the kingdom. The Spanish possessions on this continent were regarded as the personal property of the sovereign.
The viceroys were appointed by the king and removable by him at pleasure. All grants of lands were made by the sovereign, and if they failed from any cause they reverted to the crown. All political and civil power centred in the king, and was executed by such persons and in such manner as the will of the sovereign might suggest, wholly independent not only of the colonies but of the Spanish nation. The only civil privileges allowed to the colonists were strictly municipal, and confined to the regulation of their interior police and commerce in cities and towns, for which purpose they made their own local regulations or laws, and appointed town and city magistrates. The Spanish-American governments were not merely despotic like those of Russia and Turkey, but they were a more dangerous kind of despotism, as the absolute power of the sovereign was not exercised by himself, but by deputy.

Read the passage carefully and answer the questions that follow:
Although Greece (or Hel´las) is only half as large as the State of New York, it holds a very important place in the history of the world. It is situated in the southern part of Europe, cut off from the rest of the continent by a chain of high mountains which form a great wall on the north. It is surrounded on nearly all sides by the blue waters of the Med-it-er-ra´ne-an Sea, which stretch so far inland that it is said no part of the country is forty miles from the sea, or ten miles from the hills. Thus shut in by sea and mountains, it forms a little territory by itself, and it was the home of a noted people.
The history of Greece goes back to the time when people did not know how to write, and kept no record of what was happening around them. For a long while the stories told by parents to their children were the only information which could be had about the country and its former inhabitants; and these stories, slightly changed by every new teller, grew more and more extraordinary as time passed. At last they were so changed that no one could tell where the truth ended and fancy began.
The beginning of Greek history is therefore like a fairy tale; and while much of it cannot, of course, be true, it is the only information we have about the early Greeks.
About two thousand years before the birth of Christ, in the days when Isaac wanted to go down into Egypt, Greece was inhabited by a savage race of men called the Pe-las´gi-ans. They lived in the forests, or in caves hollowed out of the mountain side, and hunted wild beasts with great clubs and stone-tipped arrows and spears. They were so rude and wild that they ate nothing but raw meat, berries, and the roots which they dug up with sharp stones or even with their hands.
For clothing, the Pelasgians used the skins of the beasts they had killed; and to protect themselves against other savages, they gathered together in families or tribes, each having a chief who led in war and in the chase.
There were other far more civilized nations in those days. Among these were the E-gyp´tians, who lived in Africa. They had long known the use of fire, had good tools, and were much further advanced than the Pelasgians. They had learned not only to build houses, but to erect the most wonderful monuments in the world,--the Pyr´a-mids, of which you have no doubt heard.
In Egypt there were at that time a number of learned men. They were acquainted with many of the arts and sciences, and recorded all they knew in a peculiar writing of their own invention. Their neighbors, the Phoe-ni´-cians, whose land also bordered on the Mediterranean Sea, were quite civilized too; and as both of these nations had ships, they soon began to sail all around that great inland sea.
As they had no compass, the Egyptian and Phoenician sailors did not venture out of sight of land. They first sailed along the shore, and then to the islands which they could see far out on the blue waters.
When they had come to one island, they could see another still farther on; for, as you will see on any map, the Mediterranean Sea, between Greece and Asia, is dotted with islands, which look like stepping-stones going from one coast to the other.
Advancing thus carefully, the Egyptians and Phoenicians finally came to Greece, where they made settlements, and began to teach the Pelasgians many useful and important things.

Question 8
Which of the following is true according to the passage?
correct answer:- 1
Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions that follow.
I love hiking and camping in the Rocky Mountains and I have learned how important it is to plan all of my activities early in the day. This is because during the afternoons in the Rockies there are often storm clouds and lightning over the high peaks. You do not want to be anywhere high up in the mountains during a lightning storm because there is nowhere safe to go.
I want to give a little bit of background information so that the risk from lightning is clear. Every year in the United States there are about 49 people killed by lightning. That number may seem high, but compare that to the 90,000 people that die in car accidents every year. That is almost 1,500 times more than die from lightning. Yet, we do not let that keep us from driving in a car. Likewise, you shouldn't let the fear of lightning keep you from enjoying the mountains.
Lightning tends to strike the tallest object in an area. That could be a tall tree,
boulder
, or building. It is important to keep this in mind as you think about what you should do to minimize your risk in a lightning storm. Here are some tips on what to do to minimize your risk, and make you as safe as possible.
The first thing to do is to stay out of the mountains if a lightning storm is coming. Keep your eyes on the weather or forecast and if the forecast is for lightning storms don't go high up in the mountains. This means the best way to be safe is to simply not go in the mountains if you know a big lightning storm is coming.
However, if you are going to head up for some fun in the mountains remember what I said in the beginning, storms
typically
come later in the afternoon in the mountains. So, if possible plan your hikes and activities early in the day. Do not go for a long hike that will have you up high on a mountain later in the day. The best way to avoid being struck by lightning is to not be outside during a storm.
Here are a bunch of things that you should never do during a lightning storm. First, you should never take shelter under an
isolated
tree. The tree will attract the lightning and increase the odds of your getting struck. If the lightning strikes the tree you will not get a direct strike, but you may get hit by a surface arc, which is a short electric
burst
that goes out from the base of the tree in the air. Or you may feel the ground current if you are near an object that gets struck by lightning. The area surrounding a strike often has an extremely high voltage current that travels in the ground.
Secondly, never use a cliff or rocky overhang for shelter. Both of those may attract a lightning strike and you may feel the surface arc or ground current. Third, never lie flat on the ground. That simply makes you a bigger target and assures you will feel any ground current in the area. Contrary to what you may think, a tent is not a safe place to shelter as the metal tent poles conduct electricity.
Now, that we covered what not to do, here are some things to do in a lightning storm. First, get away from water such as ponds, lakes, or other bodies of water. Water conducts electricity. Secondly, get away from open fields or the tops of ridges and hills. If you are in these places you will be the tallest object around and increase your chances of being struck. Third, you should get in your car if you are at a campground and your car is nearby. This is not the safest, but it is better than your other options.
If you are in a forest look for a group of shorter trees and take shelter under them. This is because the lightning will strike the taller trees in the forest. If you are in a group spread out to prevent the current traveling between you, from one person to another. If you are in open areas, look for lower areas in the terrain and seek shelter there. This could be a dry
ravine
, but not one with water in it.
Finally, as a last measure if you have thought about everything else and you are simply stuck somewhere outdoors, get down low. Get into a squatting position with your arms wrapped around your knees. Try to make yourself comfortable as you may sit like this until the storm and immediate threat has passed, which could be quite some time.

Now, that we covered what not to do, here are some things to do in a lightning storm. First, get away from water such as ponds, lakes, or other bodies of water. Water conducts electricity. Secondly, get away from open fields or the tops of ridges and hills. If you are in these places you will be the tallest object around and increase your chances of being struck. Third, you should get in your car if you are at a campground and your car is nearby. This is not the safest, but it is better than your other options.
If you are in a forest look for a group of shorter trees and take shelter under them. This is because the lightning will strike the taller trees in the forest. If you are in a group spread out to prevent the current traveling between you, from one person to another. If you are in open areas, look for lower areas in the terrain and seek shelter there. This could be a dry
ravine
, but not one with water in it.
Finally, as a last measure if you have thought about everything else and you are simply stuck somewhere outdoors, get down low. Get into a squatting position with your arms wrapped around your knees. Try to make yourself comfortable as you may sit like this until the storm and immediate threat has passed, which could be quite some time.

Question 10
With which of the following the author will most likely agree with?
correct answer:- 5
Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions that follow.
I love hiking and camping in the Rocky Mountains and I have learned how important it is to plan all of my activities early in the day. This is because during the afternoons in the Rockies there are often storm clouds and lightning over the high peaks. You do not want to be anywhere high up in the mountains during a lightning storm because there is nowhere safe to go.
I want to give a little bit of background information so that the risk from lightning is clear. Every year in the United States there are about 49 people killed by lightning. That number may seem high, but compare that to the 90,000 people that die in car accidents every year. That is almost 1,500 times more than die from lightning. Yet, we do not let that keep us from driving in a car. Likewise, you shouldn't let the fear of lightning keep you from enjoying the mountains.
Lightning tends to strike the tallest object in an area. That could be a tall tree,
boulder
, or building. It is important to keep this in mind as you think about what you should do to minimize your risk in a lightning storm. Here are some tips on what to do to minimize your risk, and make you as safe as possible.
The first thing to do is to stay out of the mountains if a lightning storm is coming. Keep your eyes on the weather or forecast and if the forecast is for lightning storms don't go high up in the mountains. This means the best way to be safe is to simply not go in the mountains if you know a big lightning storm is coming.
However, if you are going to head up for some fun in the mountains remember what I said in the beginning, storms
typically
come later in the afternoon in the mountains. So, if possible plan your hikes and activities early in the day. Do not go for a long hike that will have you up high on a mountain later in the day. The best way to avoid being struck by lightning is to not be outside during a storm.
Here are a bunch of things that you should never do during a lightning storm. First, you should never take shelter under an
isolated
tree. The tree will attract the lightning and increase the odds of your getting struck. If the lightning strikes the tree you will not get a direct strike, but you may get hit by a surface arc, which is a short electric
burst
that goes out from the base of the tree in the air. Or you may feel the ground current if you are near an object that gets struck by lightning. The area surrounding a strike often has an extremely high voltage current that travels in the ground.
Secondly, never use a cliff or rocky overhang for shelter. Both of those may attract a lightning strike and you may feel the surface arc or ground current. Third, never lie flat on the ground. That simply makes you a bigger target and assures you will feel any ground current in the area. Contrary to what you may think, a tent is not a safe place to shelter as the metal tent poles conduct electricity.
Now, that we covered what not to do, here are some things to do in a lightning storm. First, get away from water such as ponds, lakes, or other bodies of water. Water conducts electricity.

Investments in R&D;, in general, are low.

There are structural issues like a lack of competent human resources and a lack of policy clarity. However, the biggest impediment to agricultural R&D; has been overzealous opposition to the new technologies from ideologues of the left and right, which are now hampering production.
Course of action:
I) We need to incentivise R&D; in agricultural sectors that are of critical importance.
II) We must engage in debates to clarify the benefits of new technologies in agriculture so that farmers are not swayed by idealogues.
III) As agriculture contributes only about 2% of the GDP of the nation, R&D; investment should be prioritized in other sectors that are more important to the nation.
