(k) “The incidental expenses are so heavy”, she confides to inquiring friends. Who is the speaker ? What is she referring to here ? (V. Imp.)

Answer:

(a) Mrs. Packletide wished to kill a tiger to counter the fame of Loona Bimberton who had flown in an aeroplane. She couldn’t tolerate her increased social prestige than hers. So to counter it she thought a tiger hunt would put her above her in social circles. So she decided to hunt a tiger to achieve that status. She arranged for the kill through payment and with the help of the villagers and Miss Mebbin.

(b) The feeling of belittling Loona Bimberton by hunting a tiger made her decide to give a party. She intended to offer Loona Bimberton a tiger-claw brooch on her birthday.

(c) Mrs. Packletide offered ? one thousand to the villagers to arrange an old tiger for hunting. She took Louisa Mebbin with her as her hunting companion and paid her for this work. A very old tiger who couldn’t even kill for his food was chosen for the purpose.

(d) The villagers helped Mrs. Packletide a lot in shooting the tiger. They arranged for an old tiger. Then they posted the children to see that the tiger didn’t stray in other hunting grounds. They also asked women crossing the forest not to sing loudly. This was to avoid that the tiger was not disturbed in his sleep.

(e) Miss Louisa Mebbin was Mrs. Packletide’s paid companion. She charged money for sitting with Mrs. Packletide while she hunted the tiger. She was not devoted to Mrs. Packletide at all. She behaved very arrogantly during the tiger hunting. She said that Mrs. Packletide shouldn’t pay if the tiger didn’t touch the goat. Then she pointed out that the shot of Mrs. Packletide killed the goat and the tiger died due to heart failure. She threatened to tell all this to Loona Bimberton to extract money from her.

(f) Mrs. Packletide was not a good shot as her shot killed the goat and not the tiger who was the target.

(g) Miss Mebbin said that Mrs. Packletide’s shot had killed the goat while there was no trace of shot on the tiger’s body. The tiger had died due to heart-failure caused by the sudden report of the rifle. Miss Mebbin made this comment just to blackmail Mrs. Packletide for more and more money. Mrs. Packletide was annoyed at this discovery.

(h) The villagers celebrated the hunt of the tiger by Mrs. Packletide. They started beating the tom-toms. This made Mrs. Packletide very glad and excited.

(i) No, Mrs. Packletide was not able to achieve her heart’s desire because Loona Bimberton declined to attend the luncheon party. Mrs. Packletide had decided to arrange it in her honour. Also she had decided to belittle her in offering her a tiger-claw brooch.

(j) Miss Mebbin blackmailed Mrs. Packletide. She threatened her that unless she bought her the week end cottage, she would tell Loona Bimberton the secret of her tiger hunt. Mrs. Packletide gave in for fear of being exposed and humiliated. She paid the money and Miss Mebbin managed to get the cottage. Miss Mebbin planted many tiger-lilies in her garden as the tiger was behind her acquiring this cottage. Tiger-lilies were synonymous for the tiger.

(k) The speaker of these lines is Mrs. Packletide. She refers to the ‘expenses’ that she met in buying Louisa Mebbin a cottage. These ‘expenses’ also include the money that she paid to the villagers for arranging a tiger.

Question 4.
Discuss the following questions in detail and write the answers in your notebooks :

(a) Do you think the tiger shooting organized by the villagers was a serious affair ? Give f reasons for your answer.

(b) Do you think the writer is trying to make fun of the main characters in the story i.e. Mrs. Packletide, Miss Mebbin and Loona Bimberton ? Pick out instances from the story that point to this fact.

(c) A person who is vain is full of self importance and can only think of himself / herself and can go to great lengths to prove his / her superiority. Do you think Mrs. Packletide is vain ? Give reasons in support of your answer.

(d) Sometimes writers highlight certain negative aspects in society or human beings by making fun of it. This is called satire. In your groups discuss whether you would classify this story as a satire. Give reasons to support your answer.

(e) How does the writer create humour in this story ?
Or
How does the writer create humour in the story Mrs. Packletide’s Tiger’ ? (CBSE 2015)

Answer:

(a) Yes, I think the tiger shooting organized by the villagers was a serious affair because tiger hunting is illegal. Doing anything to help in illegal deeds is also criminal. So the villagers can be challaned in helping in arranging the tiger for hunt illegally. Secondly, tigers are on the extinction list. The hunt becomes a serious criminal act on the part of Mrs. Packletide and the villagers.

(b) I think the writer is trying to make fun of these main characters. The language and tone used for this suggests taunt, derision and fun in an implied manner. The instances are :

For Mrs. Packletide : “Not that the lust to kill had suddenly descended … could successfully counter that sort of thing,” “her movements and motives were … Loona Bimberton.”

For Miss Mebbin : “If it’s an old tiger … money”, “Her energetic intervention had saved many a rouble … sympathetic hands,” “How you shot the goat … pleasant laugh”, “Loona Bimberton would,” said Miss Mebbin,” “I have seen a week-end cottage … have the money.”

For Loona Bimberton : “… that Loona Bimberton had recently been carried eleven miles … of nothing else,” “As for Loona Bimberton, she refused to look … repressed emotions,” “The luncheon party she declined … dangerous.”

(c) Mrs. Packletide is very vain and jealous by nature. She can never tolerate the growing social prestige of Loona Bimberton being carried in an aeroplane. So Mrs. Packletide is so much full of self-importance that she thinks of herself only. She can’t give the No. 1 place to any other woman and at any cost at social level. So she spends so much money. She is forced also to buy Louisa Mebbin a cottage just to keep (up) her foolish sense of social superiority.

(d) Meant for discussion at class level.

The story is essentially a satire on womanhood. The hollowness of Mrs. Packletide, the hypocrisy of Loona Bimberton and their giving more importance to false notions are ridiculed by the author. The doings of Louisa Mebbin and how she blackmails Mrs. Packletide also satirise these traits in women. In fact, all the three women have been satirised humorously in such a way that their hypocrisy and affectation are clearly understood.

(e) The author creates humour through the use of satirical language and creating undertones (through phrases) in description of various aspects of the story. The phrases are: ‘It was Mrs. Packletide’s pleasure and intention’; ‘her sudden deviation’; ‘stimulated the sporting and commercial instinct of the villagers’ ; ‘The one great anxiety was lest he should die of old age’.

Humour is also created through situations. These are : Mrs. Packletide and Louisa Mebbin are on the hunting platform. But they have small sized playing cards to play ‘solitaire’; women asked to hush up their singing lest the tiger should get disturbed in sleep ; villagers’ celebrating the hunting through thumping of tom-toms ; Mrs. Packletide’s hiding the facts of the case calling through ‘incidental expenses’.

This humour is also created through satirical and ironical treatment by the author.

Question 7.
An oxymoron is a figure of speech that combines normally-contradictory terms. The most common form of oxymoron involves an adjective-noun combination of two words like—failed success.

Writers often use an oxymoron to call attention to an apparent contradiction. For example, Wilfred Owen’s poem The Send-off refers to soldiers leaving for the front line, who “lined the train with faces grimly gay.” The oxymoron ‘grimly gay’ highlights the contradiction between how the soldiers feel and how they act: though they put on a brave face and act cheerful, they feel grim. Some examples of oxymorons are—dark sunshine, cold sun, living dead, dark light, almost exactly etc.

The story ‘Mrs. Packletide’s Tiger’ has a number of oxymorons. Can you identify them and write them down in your notebooks ?

Answer:

The following are some oxymorons in the story :

over-much, elaborate carelessness, grand attack, venerable herd-robber, disagreeably pleasant.

Students on their own can find more oxymorons in the story.

Question 8.
WRITING TASK
(a) Years later Mrs. Packletide writes her autobiography. As Mrs. Packletide, write about the tiger episode with the help of the clues given below.

(b) In groups of four construct the dialogues and enact the following situations from the story :

1. Mrs. Packletide and the headman of the village/other villagers discussing the details of the tiger shooting.
2. Miss Mebbin blackmailing Mrs. Packletide into gifting her a cottage.
3. Loona Bimberton and a lady-friend discussing Mrs. Packletide’s hunting success.

Answer:

(a) Loona Bimberton’s being carried in an aeroplane was the talk of the town. She had become very famous due to it and her social prestige had gone onto the top. I couldn’t digest it as her applause had created jealousy in me. Day and night I felt how to counter it. So I thought that a tiger hunt would take me on a higher social pedestal than Loona. I lost no time in arranging a tiger hunt with the help of the villagers who were just thirsty for money.

I paid ₹ one thousand to the villagers for getting an aged tiger in the village forest. A goat with a loud bleat was tied at a convenient place to attract the tiger.

A suitable platform was built in a tree. On the night of the hunt I sat with Louisa Mebbin, my paid companion.

As per pre-arranged plan the tiger came near the goat. He lay flat to regain his strength before attacking his prey. I lost no time in firing the shot. I saw that both the goat and the tiger had been killed. ‘I am on the top’, I simply felt it in my blood.

It was Louisa Mebbin who told me that I had killed the goat with my shot and not the tiger. The tiger had died due to heart failure caused by the rifle shot and old age. She proved herself very cunning and crafty. She blackmailed me that she would tell this fact to Loona Bimberton. This hit my self-esteem. I had no choice except to bow down to her indirect demand. I had to buy a week-end cottage in Dorking for her to shut her mouth to give out the secret of the tiger hunt.

(b) Students to construct the dialogues on their own and enact the same on the given situations. One sample dialogue construction is given below which can be enacted by them at class level :

Mrs. Packletide and the headman of the village/other villagers discussing the details of the tiger shooting.

A (Mrs. Packletide) : Well, gentlemen, I have decided to hunt a tiger in your village. For that I shall be needing your help. Don’t worry about money. What do you say?

B (village headman) : Yes, madam. When you have talked of money, we shall do whatever you say. I think my village people shall fully cooperate.

C (other villagers) : Yes, madam. We are with the headman. Whatever you decide, we shall do.

A (Mrs. Packletide) : For this I shall pay you one thousand. You shall have to arrange for a very weak tiger. You all will direct it on the hunting night to come to his bait. For bait you’ll arrange a goat with a good bleating sound and tie it at a point near the platform in a tree.

B (village headman) : Excuse me, madam. Where shall the platform be built?

A (Mrs. Packletide) : It should be near the place where the goat is to be tied. I and another madam shall sit on this platform in a tree. You all will direct the tiger towards the goat. When I see the tiger coming near the goat, I shall shoot at once.

C (other villagers) : What’ll happen in case the tiger strays out before the date of hunting?

A (Mrs. Packletide) : That’s your responsibility. But one thing. You’re never to disclose whatever we decide now to anybody, come what may.

B (village headman) : You needn’t worry, madam. I am asking the children to see that the tiger doesn’t stray out. Equally all the women have been asked not to sing loudly while coming home through the jungle. It is not to disturb the tiger in his sleep.

A (Mrs. Packletide) : That would be very nice. Please see that whatever we decide actually occurs. If there gets any lapse, you know the consequences…

C (All the villagers) : Yes, madam. You needn’t worry. We shall celebrate the tiger hunt with playing tom-toms.

A (Mrs. Packletide) : Good bye.

TEXTUAL EXERCISES
(Pages 124, 127)

Question 1.
Snakes generate both horror and fascination. Do you agree ? Why ? Why not ?
Answer:
I agree with the statement that snakes generate both unmentionable horror and fascination for the first time. They generate horror (of death) because they are poisonous. A single bite could result in a painful death.

They cause fascination because they are lovely to look at because of the colours and designs on their bodies. The design of a paw on the hood of cobra adds beauty to it. The patterned circles, squares or chequered designs add beauty to pythons. In fact, all species i have beautiful patterns on their bodies. But they cause a sense of revulsion and fear at their vileness in our hearts.

Question 2.
Read what W.W.E. Ross feels when he sees a snake and fill in the table given below :

The Snake Trying

The snake trying
to escape the pursuing stick,
with sudden curvings of thin
long body. How beautiful
and graceful are his shapes !
He glides through the water away
from the stroke. O let him go
over the water
into the reeds to hide
without hurt. Small and green
he is harmless even to children.
Along the sand
he lay until observed
and chased away, and now
he vanishes in the ripples
among the green slim reeds.

What is the snake doing?	Words to describe the snake	Poet’s plea
(a)	(b)	(c)

Answer:

(а) The snake is trying to escape the sticks of the onlookers. It glides through the water to escape these.

(b) Curvings of thin long body, beautiful, graceful are his shapes, glides through, small and green, vanishes in the ripples among the green slim reeds.

(c) The poet’s plea is not to kill the snake because it is a beautiful and graceful creature. It is harmless to all. So it is not good to kill it.

Question 3.
Given below is the summary of the poem Snake in short paragraphs. However they are jumbled. Work in pairs and put the summary into a logical sequence.

(a) After drinking water to satisfaction, the snake raised his head dreamily and flickered his forked tongue and licked his lips. The snake looked around like a God and then slowly proceeded to curve round and move away from the water trough.

(b) The poet felt much like the ancient mariner who had killed the albatross for no reason. He wishes that the snake would come back. He thinks of the snake as a king in exile who has to be crowned again. He also regrets having missed his opportunity of knowing and understanding one of the lords of life.

(c) As the snake put his head into the hole to retreat into the earth, the poet was filled with a protest against the idea of the snake withdrawing into his hole. The poet put down his pitcher, picked up a log and hurled it at the snake. The snake twisted violently and with great alacrity vanished into the hole in the wall.

(d) A snake visited the poet’s water trough on a hot afternoon to quench his thirst. The poet who had also gone to the trough to fill water in a pitcher waited for the snake since he had come at the trough prior to the poet.

(e) The voices of education inside the poet tell him that it was the fear for the snake that made him refrain from killing him. However, the poet feels that though he was quite afraid of the snake, he did actually feel honoured that a snake had come to seek his hospitality from the deep recesses of the earth.

(f) He is guilt-ridden. He feels that he has to atone for the meanness of his action of throwing a log at the snake.

(g) The snake rested his throat upon the stone bottom and sipped the water into his slack long body. After drinking water, he raised his head just like cattle do and flashed his forked tongue, thought for a moment and then bent down to drink some more water.

(h) Education and social conventions make the poet think that the golden brown poisonous snake must be killed and that as a brave man he must undertake the task of killing the snake.

(i) The poet instantly felt sorry for his unrefined and contemptible act and cursed the voices of education and civilization that had shaped his thought processes and urged him to kill the snake.

(j) However, the poet instinctively likes the snake, treats him like a guest and feels honoured that it had come to drink at his water trough. The poet questions himself and wonders whether his not daring to kill the snake proved that he was a coward and whether his desire to talk to the snake reflected his perversity.

Answer:

The logical sequence will be :

(d) →
(g) →
(a) →
(h) →
(e) →
(j) →
(c) →
(f) →
(i) →
(b) →

Question 5.
Answer the following questions briefly :

(a) Why does the poet decide to stand and wait till the snake has finished drinking ? What does this tell you about the poet ? (Notice that he uses ‘someone’ instead of ‘something’ for the snake.) (V. Imp.)

(b) In stanza 2 and 3, the poet gives a vivid description of the snake by using suggestive expressions. What picture of the snake do you form on the basis of this description ?

(c) How does the poet describe the day and the atmosphere when he saw the snake ? (CBSE 2012) (V. Imp.)

(d) What does the poet want to convey by saying that the snake emerges from the ‘burning bowels of the earth’ ?

(e) Do you think the snake was conscious of the poet’s presence ? How do you know ?

(f) How do we know that the snake’s thirst was satiated ? Pick out the expressions that convey this.

(g) The poet has a dual attitude towards the snake. Why does he experience conflicting emotions on seeing the snake ? (V. Imp.) (CBSE 2016)

(k) The poet experiences feelings of self-derision, guilt and regret after hitting the snake. Pick out expressions that suggest this. Why does he feel like this ?

(l) You have already read Coleridge’s poem The Ancient Mariner in which an albatross is killed by the mariner. Why does the poet make an allusion to the albatross ?

(m) T have something to expiate’-Explain. (V. Imp.)

Answer:

(a) The poet decides to stand and wait till the snake has finished drinking because he looks at it as a guest. Secondly, the poet came there after the snake had come. So he must wait on that count. This shows that the poet is understanding, civilized and well-mannered.

(b) From the suggestive expressions in stanzas 2 and 3, the picture emerges very beautiful and clear. The poet is in pyjamas and has his pitcher. The snake has trailed its yellow-brown slack body over the edge of the trough. Resting its throat it is sipping water softly and silently.

(c) The poet describes the day and atmosphere hot. It is clear in the usage of words and phrases like : ‘On a hot, hot day’, ‘in the deep, strange scented shade …’, ‘burning bowels of the earth’, ‘day of Sicilian July, when Etna smoking’.

(d) By this the poet wants to convey that there is intense heat inside the hole of the earth as it is burning.

(e) I think the snake was not conscious of the poet’s presence. If it was, it couldn’t have behaved majestically and as if it were in a dream. It looked around like a god but not at the poet, though it looked in the direction where the poet stood.

(f) The snake’s thirst was satiated as it looked dreamily after drinking the water. The expressions are : ‘And flickered his two-forked tongue’, ‘mused a moment’, ‘He drank enough’, ‘And lifted his head, dreamily’.

(g) The poet has a dual attitude towards the snake. It is because he is governed by human instinct and rational thought (called voice of human education). One, natural human instinct makes him appreciate the snake and love animals. Second, the rational thought says that snakes are poisonous. So they must be killed.

(h) The irony is that the snake itself is withdrawing. It means there is no need of the poet’s throwing a log on the snake. But he does it which is later regretted by him.

(i) The expressions are : ‘And flickered his two-forked tongue/from his lips’, ‘and mused a moment’, ‘But must I confess I liked him’, ‘How glad I was …’, ‘like a guest in quiet’, ‘I stared with fascination’, ‘Like a king in exile’.

(j) At the beginning the snake is thirsty. It draws its slack body over the edge of the water-trough leisurely and slowly. But when the poet strikes a log at it, it ‘convulses and writhes’ like lightning.

(k) The expressions are : ‘A sort of horror, a sort of protest’, ‘I thought how paltry, how vulgar, what a mean act!’, ‘I despised myself, ‘to expiate’, ‘A Pettiness’.

(l) The poet makes an allusion to the albatross because no one wanted that the albatross should be killed by the Ancient Mariner. However, later it was called a right thing.

The mariners wanted it to come to them as it had brought wind to steer the ship clear from the ice. Like this, the poet in ‘Snake’ wants the snake back to accept his hospitality like an honoured guest.

(m) It means that the poet has something to regret for ever. This is that he shouldn’t ; have thrown a log to kill the snake.

Question 6.
The encounter with the snake and the dual response of the poet to his presence at the water trough reflect a conflict between civilized social education and natural human instincts. The poet writes a diary entry highlighting how he was torn between the two voices. Write his diary.

Answer:

Monday, 18th July, 20 – 9 pm

I can’t forget the hot day when I saw an earth-brown snake come to my water trough to drink water. It trailed its yellow-brown slack and soft body over the edge of the stone trough. Then it drank water like the cattle do. It looked majestically all around like a god. It flickered its two-forked tongue and mused for a moment. Instinctively, I felt I charmed by it.

But the voice of civilised social education made me feel that such snakes are poisonous and they must be killed. So I threw a log at the snake. The snake had by then proceeded to enter the hole. The remaining part of its body convulsed and writhed like lightning at the noise at my doing so. In a moment, the snake was gone. But after this act, I felt a sense of guilt. A deep conflict rose between my natural human instincts and civilized social education. I wondered what was this all; cowardice, perversity, wish to talk to the snake or humility ? Then I felt it very bad that I should have intended to kill the snake. It was an honoured guest and an uncrowned king living into the bowels of the earth. It had accepted my hospitality. So as a host I must not have thrown the log at it. But I did and I shall regret it throughout my life !

D.H. Lawrence

Question 7.
Alliteration is the repetition of sounds in words, usually the first sound. Sibilance is
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
To what effect has the poet used these devices ? How has it added to your understanding of the subject of the poem ? You may record your understanding of snake characteristics under the following headings :

(a) Sound
(b) Movement
(c) Shape

Answer:

By using alliteration, sibilance and onomatopoeia D. H. Lawrence has succeeded in creating a kind of visual and sensory effect on us. In line ‘And trailed his yellow-brown slackness soft-bellied down’, we feel the onomatopoeiac effect in ‘trailed’, ‘slackness’, and ‘soft-bellied down’. We almost hear both the sound and the movement of the snake. Equally in line ‘And flickered his two-forked tongue’, |f| sound (sibilance) and onomatopoeiac effect in ‘flickered’ lend a visual and sensory movement to the snake.

In line ‘Softly drank through his straight gums, into his slack long body/Silently’, the |s| sound conveys the snake’s feature of its long body. Obviously, these lines give out the effect of the physical feature of the snake through sibilance. In doing so, the poet has succeeded in making us understand the snake through the sound, movement a d shape. Another example of onomatopoeic word ‘slowly’ and |s| sound indicating the use of sibilance, conveys this effect: ‘And slowly turned his head,/And slowly, very slowly, as if thrice a dream’.

Question 8.
The poet has also used both repetition and similes in the poem. For example—‘must wait, must stand and wait’ (repetition) and ‘looked at me vaguely as cattle do’ (simile).
Pick out examples of both and make a list of them in your notebooks. Give reasons why the poet uses these literary devices.

Answer:

The following are the lines chosen from the poem showing repetition of sounds :

Alliteration

Similes

1. as drinking/cattle do
2. And lifted his head, dreamily, as one who has drunken.
3. And looked around like a god
4. And slowly, very slowly, as if thrice a dream.

Note : Students themselves can find out more similes by seeing comparison between two things where as or like have been used.

Question 9.
A calligram is a poem, phrase, or word in which the handwriting is arranged in a way that creates a visual image. The image created by the words expresses visually what the word, or words, say. In a poem, it manifests visually the theme presented by the text of the poem. Read the poem given below. Try to compose a calligram. You could pick a subject of your choice.

यदि हम इसके विपरीत मान लें 2 + 3√5 कि एक परिमेय संख्या है।
अतः हम ऐसी सहअभाज्य संख्याएँ a तथा b (b ≠ 0) ज्ञात कर सकते हैं कि 2 + 3√5 = \(\frac { a }{ b }\) समीकरण को पुनर्व्यवस्थित करने पर।
चूँकि a तथा b पूर्णांक हैं।
\(\frac { a }{ 3b }\) – \(\frac { 2 }{ 3 }\) एक परिमेय संख्या है अतः √5 एक परिमेय संख्या है जिससे इस तथ्य का विरोधाभास प्राप्त । होता है कि √5 एक अपरिमेय संख्या है।

Answers

उत्तर 1-
चालक कुण्डलित तार में विद्युत धारा तब अभिप्रेरित होती है जब एक स्थिर चुबंक के चुबंकीय क्षेत्र में उस कुण्डलित तार को घुमाया जाता है।

उत्तर 2-
तापीय विद्युत संयंत्र अधिकतर कोयले की खानों तथा तेल के कुओं के निकट लगाए जाते हैं क्योंकि यदि संयंत्रों को इन स्थानों से दूर स्थापित किया तो इनके परिवहन में ही बहुत अधिक खर्च उठाना पड़ेगा।

उत्तर 3-
धावन सोडे के अणु के साथ 10 जल के अणु जुड़े होते हैं। (Na₂CO₃ 10H₂O)
प्लास्टर ऑफ पेरिस अणु के साथ औसतन ½ जल के अणु जुड़े होते हैं।
(CaSO₄.½ H₂O or 2CaSO₄ H₂O). इन्हें क्रिस्टलीय जल अणु भी कहते हैं।

उत्तर 4-

यदि ‘R’ उनका परिणामी प्रतिरोध है, तो

उत्तर 5-
पॉलिथीन पदार्थ का जैवीय अपघटन नहीं होता अतः ये पदार्थ प्रकृति में अविषाक्त रूप से विघटित नहीं हो पाते। यदि पॉलिथीन की थैलियाँ जानवरों द्वारा खा ली जाएं तो यह उनकी आंतों में फंसकर उनकी मृत्यु को कारण बन सकती है। वर्षा के दिनों में ये थैलियाँ नालियों में बहकर सीवर को ब्लॉक कर देती हैं।
पॉलिथीन थैलियों के विकल्पों के लिए दो सुझाव :
(i) पॉलिथीन की थैलियों के बदले हमें घर के बने कपड़े या जूट से बने थैलों का उपयोग करना चाहिए।
(ii) ट्रेन में चाय देने के लिए प्लास्टिक कपों की जगह डिस्पोजेबल पेपर से बने कपों का उपयोग करना चाहिए।
(iii) दुकानदारों को भी पॉलिथीन थैलियों के स्थान पर पेपर से बने थैलों का प्रयोग करना चाहिए। पॉलीथीन व प्लास्टिक की बनी थैलियों को बंद करने पर पर्यावरण के प्रदूषण की समस्या पर कुछ नियंत्रण
हो पायेगा। इससे नालियों तथा नालों के पानी के बहाव में आने वाली रुकावटे भी कम होगी।

उत्तर 6-
(i) P = 25 वाट
V = 250 वोल्ट
I = ?
P = V x I
या I = \(\frac { P }{ V }\)
I = \(\frac { 25 }{ 250 }\) = 0.1 A
(ii) विद्युत ताप उपकरणों में चालक तार मिश्र धातु की बनी होती है क्योंकि इनकी गलनांक ताप उच्च होता है। इनकी प्रतिरोधकता उच्च होती है जिसके कारण विद्युत धारा गुजरने पर यह बहुत अधिक ऊष्मा उत्पन्न करते हैं।

उत्तर 7-
धातु के अयस्क से शुद्ध धातु को प्राप्त करने के लिए प्रयोग की गई सभी भौतिक तथा रासायनिक विधियों को धातु निष्कर्षण कहते हैं। धातु निष्कर्षण के चार मुख्य चरण हैं :
(i) अयस्क का सान्द्रण।
(ii) अयस्क को उसके धातु ऑक्साइड में परिवर्तन होना।
(iii) ऑक्साइड अयस्क का अपचयन।
(iv) धातु का परिष्करण (शुद्धीकरण)

उत्तर 8-

(a) एक छड़ चुबंक को ड्राईंग पेपर पर रखकर, उसके चारों तरफ उसकी परिधि पर पेंसिल से लाइन लगाकर एक दिक्सूचक की सहायता से, चुबंकीय बल रेखाएँ । खींचते हैं। जैसा कि इस क्रियाकलाप के चित्र से दिखाई । देता है कि ये बल रेखाएँ छड़ चुबंक के उत्तरी तथा दक्षिणी ध्रुव के पास अधिक संख्या में बनती हैं। इससे पता चलता । हैं कि ध्रुवों के पास चबंकीय क्षेत्र सबसे अधिक प्रबल दिक्सूचक होता है।

(b) (i) छड़ चुबंक के भीतर चुबंकीय बल रेखाएँ S ध्रुव से N ध्रुव की दिशा में जाती हैं।
(ii) छड़ चुबंक के बाहर चुबंकीय बल रेखाएँ N ध्रुव से S ध्रुव की दिशा में जाती है।

उत्तर 9-
(a) धमनियाँ हृदय से रक्त लेकर शरीर के अन्य भागों तक पहुँचाती हैं। धमनियों में हृदय से रक्त उच्च दाब | से डाला जाता है इसलिए इस उच्च दाब को सहने के लिए धमनियों की दीवारें मोटी होती हैं।
(b) मछलियों में हृदय के केवल दो कोष्ठक होते हैं-एक अलिंद तथा एक निलय। उनमें ऑक्सीकृत तथा अनॉक्सीकृत रक्त अलग-अलग नहीं किया जा सकता जिसके कारण उनके हृदय के माध्यम से रक्त हृदय में एक चक्र में केवल एक ही बार आता है।
(c) पौधे एक ही जगह पर स्थिर रहते हैं इसलिए उन्हें कम कार्य करने पड़ते है। उनकी कोशिकाओं को तीव्रता से पदार्थों की आपूर्ति करने की आवश्यकता नहीं होती जिसके कारण पौधों को कम ऊर्जा की आवश्यकता होती है।

उत्तर 10-
(a) यह कदम स्थानीय लोगों की सुरक्षा तथा स्वास्थ्य के प्रति चिंता व जागरूकता को दर्शाता है।
(b) सुरक्षा मांगने के पीछे लोगों की दो चिंताएँ :
(i) लोगों को जानकारी थी कि नाभिकीय संयत्र में उपयोग होने के बाद बचे हुए ईधन का सुरक्षित भण्डारण एक बड़ी समस्या होगी क्योंकि इस बचे हुए ईंधन से हानिकारक विकिरणें निकलती हैं।
(ii) कभी-कभी इन संयंत्रों में हानिकारक विकिरणों के रिसाव के कारण बड़ी दुर्घटनाएँ घटित हो जाती है। जिनका मनुष्यों तथा वातावरण पर हानिकारक प्रभाव होता है।

उत्तर 11-
प्रकार्यात्मक समूह-किसी कार्बन यौगिक के अणु में उपस्थित एक विशेष परमाणु या परमाणु समूह, जिस पर उस यौगिक के रासायनिक गुण निर्भर करते हैं, उस विशेष परमाणु या परमाणु समूह को उस यौगिक का प्रकार्यात्मक समूह कहते हैं।

उत्तर 12-
(i) पहले समूह के तत्वों के ऑक्साइड :
पहले समूह का तत्व = A संयोजकता = +1
ऑक्साइड = O संयोजकता = -2
∴ रासायनिक सूत्र :

(ii) तेरहवें समूह के तत्वों के हैलाइड :
माना तेरहवें समूह का तत्व = M संयोजकता = +3
माना हैलाइड तत्व = X संयोजकता = -1
∴ रासायनिक सूत्र :

(iii) वह यौगिक जो दूसरे समूह के किसी तत्व तथा सोलहवें समूह के किसी तत्व के संयोजन से बनते
माना दूसरे समूह की तत्व = X संयोजकता = +2
सोलहवें समूह का एक तत्व = Y संयोजकता = -2
∴ रासायनिक सूत्र :

अथवा
(a) (i) संयोजकता-किसी तत्व की दूसरे तत्वों के साथ यौगिक बनाने के लिए मिलने की क्षमता को उस तत्त्वे की संयोजकता कहते हैं।
• किसी भी तत्व की संयोजकता उसके परमाणु के सबसे बाहरी कोश में उपस्थित संयोजकता इलेक्ट्रॉनों की संख्या से निर्धारित होती है।
• संयोजकता एक संख्या है जो यह प्रदर्शित करती है कि जब कोई परमाणु इलेक्ट्रॉन प्राप्त करता है या खोता है या साझा करता है। जब वह अपने ही तत्व के परमाणु से या किसी अन्य परमाणु से आबंध बनाता है। (ii) परमाणु आकार-एक तत्व के एक स्वतंत्र परमाणु के केन्द्र से उसके सबसे बाहरी कोश तक की दूरी को उसका परमाणु साइज़ कहते हैं।
(b) आवर्त में बाएं से दाएं ओर जाने पर तत्वों की संयोजकता पहले 1 से 4 तक बढ़ती है तथा उसके बाद यह घटते हुए 0 (शून्य) तक आती है।
इसी प्रकार आवर्त में बाईं से दाईं ओर जाने पर परमाणु आकार घटता जाता है।

उत्तर 13-
(a) कुछ विशेष प्रकार के जीवाश्मों के अध्ययन से यह पाया गया है कि इन जीवाश्मों में कुछ गुण सरीसृप वर्ग के जीवों के तथा कुछ गुण पक्षियों के पाये गए हैं। उदाहरण के लिए, आर्कियोप्टेरिक्स जीव का जीवाश्म। आर्कियोप्टेरिक्स में पक्षी की तरह पंख वाले पर थे परंतु दांत एवं पूंछ जैसे गुण सरीसृप वाले पाए गए हैं, इसलिए हम कह सकते हैं कि पक्षियों का विकास सरीसृपों से हुआ है।
(b) हम इन जीवों को केवल उनमें आँख होने के आधार पर एक समूह में समूहित नहीं कर सकते हैं। क्योंकि इन सभी जीवों में कुछ अन्य मूल गुण एक-दूसरे से भिन्न हैं, जैसे प्लेनेरिया में हृदय आदि संरचना का न होना। कीटों में खुला रक्त परिवहन तंत्र होता है जबकि कशेरुकियों में बंद रक्त परिवहन तंत्र होता है।

उत्तर 14-
यदि आवर्धन, m = -1
υ = 50 cm
क्योंकि आवर्धन ऋणात्मक है इसका मतलब प्रतिबिंब वास्तविक तथा उलटा बनता है।
∴υ = -50 (वास्तविक प्रतिबिंब के लिए)

उत्तर 15-
जब सूर्य का प्रकाश वायुमण्डल से गुजरता है, तो वायु के सूक्ष्म कण लाल रंग की अपेक्षा नीले रंग (छोटी तरंगदैर्थ्य) को अधिक प्रबलता से प्रकीर्ण करते हैं। प्रकीर्णित हुआ नीला प्रकाश हमारे नेत्रों में प्रवेश करता है अतः स्वच्छ आकाश को रंग नीला दिखाई देता है। यदि पृथ्वी पर वायुमंडल न होता तो कोई प्रकीर्णन न हो पाता, तब आकाश काला प्रतीत होता।
पृथ्वी की परिक्रमा कर रहे अन्तर्राष्ट्रीय अन्तरिक्ष स्टेशन में स्थित किसी अन्तरिक्ष यात्री को आकाश काला प्रतीत होता है, क्योंकि ऊपर अन्तरिक्ष में वायुमंडल नहीं होता है, जिसके कारण, सूर्य के प्रकाश का प्रकीर्णन नहीं हो पाता है, इसलिए आकाश काला प्रतीत होता है।

उत्तर 16-
(a) (i) जब कार्बन की थोड़ी मात्रा को लोहे में मिलाया जाता है तो यह मिश्र धातु बन जाता है जिसे स्टील कहते हैं। यह स्टील कम लचीला तथा भंगुर होता है।
(ii) लोहे में निक्कल (Ni) तथा क्रोमियम (Cr) धातुओं को मिलाने पर यह एक मिश्र धातु बन जाता | है जिसे स्टेनलेस स्टील कहते है। इस धातु पर कभी जंग नहीं लगता। स्टेनलेस स्टील का उपयोग खाने के बरतन, चाकू, कैंची इत्यादि बनाने में किया जाता है।
(b) फ्यूज़ एक मिश्र धातु से बनाया जाता है। जिसका गलनांक ताप निम्न होता है। यह टिन तथा सीसे (लैड, Pb) से बनी हुई मिश्र धातु है जिसमें 63% टिन तथा 37% सीसा होता है।
(c) मिश्र धातु दो या दो से अधिक धातुओं अथवा एक धातु या एक अधातु का समांगी मिश्रण है। मिश्र धातु को बनाने की प्रक्रिया-किसी मिश्र धातु को बनाने के लिए पहले मूल धातु को गलित अवस्था में लाया जाता है एवं उसके बाद दूसरे तत्वों को एक निश्चित अनुपात में इसमें विलीन किया जाता है। फिर इसे कमरे के ताप पर ठंडा करके ठोस रूप दिया जाता है।

उत्तर 17-
(a)

(b) माइक्रोवेव की शक्ति, P = 2 kW = 2000 वाट विभवांतर, V = 220 वोल्ट ।
आवश्यक विद्युत धारा, I = ?
∴I = \(\frac { P }{ V }\) = \(\frac { 2000 }{ 220 }\) = 9A (लगभग)
माइक्रोवेव को 9A की आवश्यकता है परन्तु उसे 5 A विद्युत धारा के परिपथ पर चलाया जा रहा है इस कारण यह माइक्रोवेव ठीक से कार्य नहीं कर पाएगा तथा उसके परिपथ की फ्यूज़ तार जल्दी से पिघल कर टूट जाएगी।

उत्तर 18-

फेफड़ों का गैसों के आदान-प्रदान में कार्य-फेफडों की कृपिकाओं के चारों तरफ रक्त की केशिकाएँ होती। हैं। जब सांस भीतर ले जाने पर, फेफड़ों की कूपिकाओं में वायु भर जाती है तो इन कूपिकाओं से वायु की O₂ गैस केशिकाओं द्वारा रक्त में चली जाती है तथा रक्त से CO₂ गैस केशिकाओं से फेफड़ों में की जाती है। इसलिए अब फेफड़ों में अधिक मात्रा की CO₂ गैस वाली वायु होती है, जिसे सांस छोड़ने की क्रिया से शरीर से नासद्वारों द्वारा बाहर निकाल दिया जाता है।

उत्तर 19-
कार्बन के सबसे बाहरी कोश में 4 इलेक्ट्रॉन होते हैं तथा उत्कृष्ट गैस विन्यास को प्राप्त करने के लिए। इसको 4 इलेक्ट्रॉन प्राप्त करने या खोने की आवश्यकता होती है।
कार्बन परमाणु से C^4- ऋणायन बनने पर इसमें कुल 10 इलेक्ट्रॉन हो जाते हैं, जिन्हें नाभिक के छह प्रोटॉन संतुलित नहीं कर पाते। इसलिए इस प्रकार का ऋणायन नहीं बन पाता है।
कार्बन परमाणु को C⁴⁺ धनायन बनने के लिए 4 इलेक्ट्रॉन खोने पड़ते हैं। बाहरी कक्ष के इन 4 इलेक्ट्रॉनों को खोने के लिए अत्यधिक ऊर्जा की आवश्यकता होती है जो रासायनिक क्रियाओं में उपलब्ध नहीं हो पाती है। इसलिए यह C⁴⁺ धनायन नहीं बना पाता।
यही कारण है कि कार्बन परमाणु अपने परमाणुओं के साथ अथवा दूसरे तत्वों के परमाणुओं के साथ सहसंयोजी बंध बनाकर सहसंयोजी यौगिक बनाता है।
कारण सहित व्याख्या :
(a) सहसंयोजी यौगिक विद्युत के कुचालक होते हैं क्योंकि यह तरल अवस्था में अथवा जलीय विलयन के रूप में अपने आयनों के रूप में विघटित नहीं होते हैं।
(b) इन यौगिकों के अणुओं के बीच अधिक आकर्षण बल न होने के कारण इन यौगिकों का गलनांक और क्वथनांक ताप कम होता है।

उत्तर 20-
(a) पपीते के फूल एकलिंगी फूल हैं। गुड़हल के फूल उभयलिंगी है।
(b) निषेचन के पश्चात् युग्मनज अनेक भागों में विभाजित हो जाता है तथा बीजांड में भ्रूण विकसित होने | लगता है जो कि बीजों में परिवर्तित हो जाता है। अंडाशय बहुत शीघ्रता से वृद्धि करता है तथा परिपक्व होकर फल बन जाता है। बाह्यदल, पंखुड़ी, पुंकेसर, वर्तिका तथा वर्तिकाग्र प्रायः मुरझाकर गिर जाते हैं।
(c) मानव के शरीर के विशिष्ट अंगों में कुछ विशेष प्रकार की कोशिकाओं की परत होती है। जिनमें मनुष्य की कायिक कोशिकाओं की अपेक्षा गुणसूत्रों की संख्या भी आधी होती है तथा DNA की मात्रा भी आधी होती है। अतः जब दो भिन्न जीवों की यह युग्मक कोशिकाएँ युग्मनज बनाती हैं। तो नई संतति में गुणसूत्रों की संख्या एवं DNA की मात्रा पुन:स्थापित हो जाती है। यही कारण है। कि नई संतति में DNA की मात्रा नियत रहती है।
अथवा
(a) मानव मादा जनन तंत्र का भाग :
(i) जो अण्ड उत्पन्न करता है-अण्डाशय।
(ii) जहाँ अण्ड और शुक्राणु का संलयन होता है-अण्डवाहिका।

(ii) यदि मोमबत्ती को 2F से दूर रखा जाएगा तो प्रतिबिंब छोटा तथा वास्तविक बनेगा।

उत्तर 22-
I = 400 mA = \(\frac { 400 }{ 1000 }\) = 0.40 A, V = 8 वोल्ट
R (प्रतिरोध) = \(\frac { V }{ I }\) = \(\frac { 8X10 }{ 4 }\) = 20 Ω

उत्तर 23-
तीनों परिपथों में एक जैसी विद्युत धारा प्रवाहित होगी क्योंकि तीनों परिपथों में दोनों प्रतिरोधक श्रेणी क्रम में जुड़े हुए है।
R1 = 10 Ω
R2 = 10 SΩ
∴R = R1 + R2 = 10 + 10 = 20 Ω
V = 20 वोल्ट
∴I (विद्युत धारा) = \(\frac { V }{ R }\) = \(\frac { 20 }{ 20 }\) = 1A

SECTION A
(Reading – 20 Marks)

Question 1.
Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow: (8)

The Camera Can Lie-Sometimes

1. Much to their annoyance, pen-pushers are routinely reminded that a picture is worth a thousand words—except that sometimes they can be wrong “words” as happened last week when Reuters was forced to withdraw more than 900 pictures taken by a freelance photographer after it was suspected that he had “doctored” two recent photographs of the Israeli-Lebanon conflict.

2. In one picture, the smoke billowing from an apartment block after an Israeli air strike was allegedly thickened by the photographer, Adnan Hajj, to dramatize the impact of the bombardment – and in another two flares were suspected to have been added to an image of an Israeli jet in action over Lebanon.

3. The allegation of doctoring, first made by several bloggers, was confirmed by Reuters after an in-house investigation. Mr. Hajj, who had sold pictures to Reuters for more than 10 years, denied manipulating the two photographs and attributed the thick smoke in the first picture to “bad lighting” and the fact that he was “trying to remove dust marks.” As for the second, he said, “there was no problem with it – not at all.”

4. But Reuters was not convinced and said it was removing all of these pictures from its database and would not be using his service anymore. “This represents a serious breach of Reuters’ standards and we shall not be accepting or using pictures taken by him,” the news agency said.

5. The idea that the camera never lies is as misleading as the notion that all statistics are meant to mislead. What the “eye” sees is not always what it looks like, thanks to the many ways in which first the camera and then the photograph can be – and is often – manipulated. Indeed, a photograph can be manipulated in more ways – and more effectively – to convey a false reality than it is possible to go through the written word. Ask any clever photographer and he will tell you the tricks camera be made to play.

6. At a seminar recently, one journalist recalled how there was a time when British photographers, covering stories about famine or floods in Third World countries, would cany teddy bears ’ with them in order to use them as prop for pictures supposedly showing that all that was left in household, stricken by death and destruction, were children’s toys. (Source: The Hindu)

1.1. On the basis of your reading of the passage, answer any eight the following questions in brief: (1 x 8 = 8)
(a) Why was Reuters forced to withdraw the pictures?
(b) What was Adnan Hajj accused of?
(c) Why is photography manipulated?
(d) Teddy bears were used as props.
(e) What is the meaning of ‘doctored’?
(f) Which statement in the passage resembles the idea that he is ‘camera never lies’ is also misleading?
(g) What has been reminded by pen pushers?
(h) Who can tell us about the tricks played by the camera?
(i) Find the word in paragraph 3 which means the same as ‘controlling’.

Question 2.
Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow: (12)

1. Advertising was initially meant to make people aware of the goods available in the market. It was as simple as announcing what you have in your store or the services you offer in your premises. Over the years, advertising has evolved into a major industry that beyond informing to persuading and influencing. It is a form of brainwashing consumers.

2. Advertising has become a type of culture with ardent followers. In the process, it attracts enviable attention from manufacturers and service providers who fancy an edge over their competitors. Unfortunately, in keeping with the ever-increasing demands of the manufacturers, the advertisers have resulted to creating unnecessary wants and excess consumption in most of us. This is craving for harmful products that we are better off without. It preys on our minds rendering us completely irrational. The billboards (hoardings), television and radio advertisements target us from a very early age, forming our view of the world as we grow into adults. The buzzwords in advertising are, ‘you are cool and sophisticated’, if you use this or that product.

3. The notion that the media is primarily in place to give us news is not very true. If the truth may be told, the media is there to gather enough audience, package them into a pricey commodity and sell it to the advertisers. The advertisers, on the other hand, are always on the lookout for a target audience to persuade them that this product or service is better than that of the competitor.

4. Advertising does influence people. Most of the advertisements are filled with images that equate emotional well-being with material acquisition and associate independence and leisure with consumption of alcohol. Advertising also makes people lavish their products rather than real people, thereby destroying human relationships. We have become trapped in the web of advertising where products like brands of beer and cigarette take over our minds, doing away with our core family values.

5. When you look critically at most of the advertisements on the television, you will discover how persuasive the advertisers are in deciding for us what, when, how much and why to buy. But most people think that they are not influenced by advertisements. This is precisely what the advertisers want us to think, that in the end ‘the people decide’. If you think deeply, nobody in this profit-minded sense will pay so much money to make a thirty-second advertisement, which might not be seen by a hundred people, leave alone convince them to buy. How we strike a healthy balance between the two will definitely have a direct bearing on the future of our country.

2.1. On the basis of your reading of the passage, answer any four of the following questions in brief: (2 x 4 = 8)
(a) What was the purpose of advertising?
(b) How do advertisements make us irrational?
(c) How does advertising affect us?
(d) Give an example to show that people become trapped in the web of advertising.
(e) What do you discover when you look at advertisement critically?

Conservation of Water

Water is a natural resource. It is very precious. Earth’s natural resources are depleting at an alarming rate due to the increase in human population, rapid industrialization, and urbanization. Trees are being cut indiscriminately and the result is groundwater levels are falling and the day is not far when wars will be fought for water. It is needless to say that water is the most essential resource for life. If we need water in the future we should conserve it urgently. We can save water in many ways. First of all the taps should be used properly and kept turned off always. Water should not be wasted while bathing or washing floors. Reuse water wherever possible. Fix alarm to water tanks so that overflow can be prevented. We must keep in mind that water should be conserved, not wasted. Conservation helps prevent water pollution in nearby lakes, rivers, and local watersheds. Conserving water is something that we all should do.

Manali

Sub: Complaint about the double suites
Ref. No: Holiday reference Number BM 3278 M

Sir,
I had booked two double suites of rooms, 111 and 112, at your resort for a week from 10.05.20xx to 16.05.20xx for me and my family. My central complaint is that the hotel fell far short of the description in the brochure.
Although the rooms were billed as four-star accommodation, they were cramped, and the furnishings were worn out and dirty. The hotel grounds, described in the brochure as “Pleasant, tranquil, and spacious”, were in fact next to a busy main road. The swimming pool was closed for repairs.
I registered a formal complaint with the front office detailing these issues. I feel that we are due to a full refund for this hotel stay as it failed to meet our expectations and ruined our holiday. Looking forward to a prompt reply.

Yours faithfully
Arjun Kapoor

Sachin and Amit decided to go to Shimla during their autumn break. This time they had planned to travel without their parents and explore the place on their own. They had done research on the internet and had chalked out their plan accordingly. They did ail their booking outline. Everything seemed to be exactly as they had planned. Little did they know that their trip would end before it took off. They got off at Kalka and decided to take the mini train to Shimla. The train crawled slowly through the thick forest and bridges over gushing streams. Sachin and Amit decided to jump off the train to take some pictures. The train was running at a speed less than 15-20 km/hr. Judging the speed they both were sure that they could run and catch the train in five minutes. After clicking a few photographs they ran towards the train, Sachin hit a big boulder and fell down. He gave out a big scream. He had fractured his leg. Amit panicked but had the presence of mind to run along and signal to the driver to stop the train. Some passengers carried Sachin back to the train. The drivers informed the police about the emergency. When the train entered the station they saw an ambulance waiting for them. It took them to the nearest hospital where his leg was put in plaster. They came down the very next day.

Answer 10.
Goa is very much influenced by the Portuguese. Baking was considered an essential and profitable profession in a traditional Goan village. The Portuguese are famous for preparing the loaves of bread. We can come across the bakers of bread. It is their traditional family work. The villagers were much fond of the sweet bread known as ‘bol’. The marriage gifts were meaningless without it. So the baker’s furnaces were essential. ‘Cakes’ and ‘bolinhas’ formed an important item on various occasions like Christmas and other festivals. The baker would collect the bill at the end of the month. They recorded their accounts on the wall in pencil. Baking was a profitable business in the old days. The baker and his family never starved and they looked happy and prosperous.

A good spy need not be handsome, attractive and smart. Physical strength can be an added advantage but certainly not the essential one. Secret agents have to face critical situations at every step. One night, Ausable found Max in his room. There was an automatic pistol in his hand. He had come there to take the report from Ausable. Max was also a secret agent of another organization. Ausable was not the least afraid of Max’s presence. He thought of a clever trick. He convinced Max about a balcony outside the window. Just then there was a loud knock at the door. Ausable told Max that it was police to provide him security. Max had no time to think. Max rushed towards the window and dropped to the non-existent balcony and met his tragic end. Ausable did not use physical strength. He won over the critical situation by his sheer presence of mind.

Answer 11.
Mrs. Edith Frank was the mother of Anne and Margot Frank. She was born in 1900 as Edith Hollanders in Aachen, Germany. She .lived a luxurious life since her family was well placed. Servants were employed to help her in running the household. She married Mr. Otto Frank in 1925 who was eleven years older to her. They lived a comfortable life in Frankfurt, Germany, where both Margot and Anne were born. In 1933, the Franks moved to Amsterdam, Holland to escape Hitler’s persecution of the Jews in Germany. When the Nazi invaded Holland, she went into hiding with her family in 1942. Anne realized her mistake of misjudging her mother when she grew mature. However, Mrs. Edith Frank was affectionate and displayed good negotiable skills. She proved logical while resolving adults’ fights in the Annexe. Hailing from a rich background, she could not adjust to the life of the Annexe where the scarcity of basic necessities, cramped quarters and putting in hard work greatly irritated her. All these frustrations were vented out on her younger daughter Anne who thought her to be far removed from an Ideal Mother. Mrs. Frank’s partial attitude towards Margot infuriated Anne and intensified her negative feelings about her mother. Therefore she presented her mother in a negative way throughout the diary.

The Franks left Frankfurt, Germany to move to Holland to escape the persecution of Hitter and the Nazis who had overtaken Germany. Bu’ when the Germans invaded Holland in 1940, the same laws imposed on Germany were extended to the Netherlands. Anne thinks the laws are unjust. She explains how the condition of the Jewish people is worsening. It is unfair that Jews cannot use streetcars, that they must wear yellow stars and attend schools meant for Jews. Though she is optimistic about her family’s safety and states that life is bearable, she realizes that they are not safe. Having been forced into hiding, Anne’s entire life and worldview is quickly transformed. She hears her friends are taken to concentration camps. Her fears grow and fail to understand why the Jewish people have been segregated for this discrimination and restrictions are imposed on them. She also questions why she remains quite safe where her friends outside are facing adverse times. On hearing that the Dutch are becoming more anti-Semitic. She is disheartened but remains quite optimistic about the future of the people at large.

A wonderful teacher transforms the lives of his pupils. Real learning is possible only when the learner is ready to receive it and the teacher is genuinely involved to impart the fundamentals of education. “Any teacher can take a child to the classroom, but not every teacher can make him learn”. The arrival of Miss Sullivan was the turning point in the life of Helen. Miss Sullivan’s love for details and descriptive competency was par excellence. Above all, she was familiar with the psyche of the child. Amidst a free environment, Helen was bound to make unprecedented progress. She believed in the depth of knowledge. Sullivan took Helen out of doors to learn about facts of life. Nature was a great teacher and she incorporated this subject to supplement her teaching. The pearls from varied books were also incorporated. It was a joyful experience for Helen and she actively participated in the teaching-learning process. She had learned to accept life as it was offered to her and made the best use of the gift of life that was given to her. Helen felt an inner urge in the quest of knowledge and now generations treasure her, all due to the indomitable determination of Keller and the exemplary role of Miss Sullivan.
OR
Mr. Michael Anagnos was the director of the Perkin Institution for the blind. He recommended Miss Anne Sullivan to be Helen’s private teacher and both of them were bounded in a strong pupil-teacher relationship. He persuaded Anne to bring Helen to study every now and then at the Perkin Institution and introduced her to many people who lived in Boston. Being a good friend of Helen, he encouraged and appreciated her compositions. He got ‘The Frost King’ published in the Institution’s annual report. Soon Helen’s progress began to spread all around the United States. Anagnos hoped that Helen’s successes would prove a good advertisement for the Perkin Institution which had educated Anne as he teaches. But he was horrified to discover that the story was not the original composition of Helen. He remarked that Anne Sullivan had acted too strongly to support Keller in order to win praise for her own success with Helen. This incident put an end to their relationship and both of them could never patch up again.

SECTION A
(Reading – 20 Marks)

Question 1.
Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow: (8)

1. Filmmaker Pankaj Johar’s new film, Still Standing, is about his quadriplegic father, Rajinder Johar, who has not only come to terms with his disability but is a source of inspiration to many. The film is an emotive tribute by a son to his father, a man of immense courage.

2. “I knew that this is a story that the world needs to know,” says Pankaj. “My father has turned a personal disaster into an opportunity to serve society. This film is a dedication to the unbreakable spirit of this man.” Rajinder Johar has learned to accept his disability with stoic acceptance and good cheer. Among the many case studies presented in the film, is one of Sabina who was four years old when she lost both her legs in a train accident. Life became really tough for her. She went to Rajinder Johar who had, in the meantime set up an NGO, Family of Disabled (FOD). He helped her set up a small shop and later gave her a tricycle which she now used to go to work and ferry her children from school.

3. The film also shows a talented painter, Seema, at work. She lost both her hands in an accident at a very young age. But she has trained herself to do a lot of things with her feet, including painting. “When she came to meet my father, she was looking for a platform to showcase her talent. My father helped her but unfortunately, she has not been able to find buyers for her paintings,” says Pankaj. But other painters like Imamuddin, who is speech and hearing impaired, have been luckier.

4. Rajinder Johar’s family bore the brunt of his disability. Pankaj recalls that the family would never go on vacations and he was always embarrassed to bring his friends home. Today Pankaj considers himself lucky to have had the opportunity of watching his inspiring father at close quarters.

5. “People have different celebrities as their role models. I had one right at home,” he says. It shows in his loving portrayal of his father: Still Standing is a moving film for the audience.

1.1. On the basis of your reading of the passage, answer any eight of the following questions in brief: (1 x 8 = 8)
(a) Name the movie of Pankaj Johar. What is it about?
(b) Who was Sabina? What happened to her?
(c) How did Rajinder Johar help Sabina?
(d) What was unfortunate for Seema, besides she worked very hard?
(e) What embarrassed Pankaj?
(f) What was the point that filmmaker Pankaj Johar wants to convey through his film Still Standing?
(g) Why does Pankaj consider himself lucky?
(h) Name another painter who was speech and hearing impaired.
(i) Find the word in paragraph 1, which means the same as ‘homage’.

Question 2.
Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow: (12)

1. Deserts are usually hot and barren places; yet, they are also beautiful. A few plants, rocks and dusty red-brown soil make up the ingredients of most North American deserts where there is sufficient food and water for certain animals to survive.

2. One famous dry and hot place in the world with no visible rock or plant barely any water is the Sahara Desert. It is the largest desert in the world and is located in Northern Africa. It gives the impression of an ocean of pure white sand. Surprisingly, the Sahara is home to many strange animals.

3. These animals have survived over many generations because they were able to adapt to their particular conditions. However, a certain number of species were unable to adapt fast enough to their environment and so died out. One of the most interesting animals in the Sahara is the sand stink which in French means ‘fish of the desert’. The sand stink behaves just like a fish except that instead of in water, it ‘swims’ through the sand. Its legs act as fins and the hard scales on its skin act as armor helping it move through the sand. A piece of transparent skin protects its eyes as it swims through the sand. Its eggs are covered with skin to prevent dehydration.

4. Another desert animal that hides from the sun is the desert shrimp. The lifespan of these tiny animals is only about two weeks because that is about when puddles of water from desert rainstorms dry up. They are able to survive in the hot conditions, but without their main source of survival, they dehydrate and are virtually roasted to death.

5. One of the rare animals able to bask in the desert sun is the camel. For many hundreds of years, the camel has been the ‘horse of the desert’, helping travelers across the desert. This ‘horse’ is slow-moving, yet it is big and strong enough to carry extremely heavy loads. The camel has larger feet almost like snowshoes. This characteristic prevents it from sinking into the sand.

6. A camel is able to drink up to one hundred and eighteen liters of water in a day. Once it is full, it can move for five to seven days without water, carrying its own portable ‘water tank’. Its humps help to store fats which serve as a storage of strength, removing the need for food, sometimes for a week. In fact, the humps become smaller as the camel consumes the fats stored. They also help to regulate the camel’s temperature.

2.1. On the basis of your reading of the passage, answer any four of the following questions in brief: (2 x 4 = 8)
(a) How much water is a camel able to drink up in a day? What is the use of its hump?
(b) Name one of the interesting animals in the Sahara. Describe it.
(c) What prevents camel to sink into the sand?
(d) Why can only certain animals survive in the North American deserts?
(e) Why is the lifespan of desert shrimps very short?

2.2. On the basis of your reading of the passage, answer any four of the following: (1 x 4 = 4)
(a) The water tank of camels is …………
(i) very strong
(ii) portable
(iii) sandy
(iv) hot

(b) In paragraph 4, ……….. means a small pool.

(iii) survive

Answer 3.

Save Nature, Save Mankind

The delicate balance of Nature has been disturbed due to the increased population of human beings. The activities of mankind have led to decreasing in the green cover comprising forest land. This has resulted in many wild animals getting extinct or reaching the brink of extinction. Increased population results in the clearing of forest lands. Encroaching is done for farming, leading to a decrease in living space for wild animals. Poaching for skins, rhino horns, elephant Turks, has led to a decrease in their numbers. Not only has the loss of habitat played havoc but the greed for animal products has caused the dwindling of the species of tigers, rhinoceros, crocodile and many of the birds. This has adversely affected the food chains. There is an urgent need for afforestation and strict implementation of forest laws. More wildlife sanctuaries are needed to protect the forest land. More voluntary agencies need to be active and work for Gandhiji’s message ‘Nature has enough for man’s need but not for man’s greed.’

Answer 11.
There was a call-up for sixteen-year-old Margot Frank by the German Secret Service on Sunday, July 5, 1942. A call-up meant, ‘concentration camps and lonely cells for the Jews. Anne’s father immediately decided to go into hiding with his family. He had already been planning to go there on July 16 but had to move earlier because of the order, on July 6, 1942. The hiding place was Anne’s father’s office, Opekta on Prinsengracht Street. Only his most trusted employees knew about it – Mr. Kugler, Mr. Kleiman, Miep and twenty-three old typists Bep Voskuijil. Bep’s father and Miep’s husband Jan were two more people who helped the Franks. The large warehouse on the ground floor was used as a workroom and storeroom and was divided into several different sections. There was a stockroom, a milling room where the spices were ground. Anne called it our lovely Annexe. She thought her new home was hot bad since they could do their own cooking and listen to the radio in her father’s office.
OR
Anne, before she went into hiding, experienced Racism in many ways. First, the family had to migrate to Holland in 1933 from Germany, their birthplace when Hitler’s Nazi party won in elections. The Franks were among the 300000 Jews who fled Germany between 1933 and 1939. The second experience was when Germany invaded the Netherlands in May 1940 and occupied it. The Germans began to persecute Jews by passing discriminatory laws. The Franks sisters had to leave their Montessori school and join Jewish Lyceum. The Jews were ordered to study in Jewish schools. Her father had to sell his business to Mr. Kleiman and Jan Gies, in Amsterdam. Jews had to wear a yellow star, they had to hand over their bicycles and were banned from traveling in trains or drive cars. They could not visit theatres, cinemas and other places of entertainment and all public sports were prohibited to them. The biggest experience of racism was that the Franks had to go in hiding to escape being deported to other lands. They lived for 25 months in a secret Annexe, where fear of betrayal was their constant companion.
OR
Helen did not clearly remember when she realized that she was different from other people. She noticed that her mother and friends did not use signs like her. They spoke with their mouths—sometimes Helen stood between two people who were talking and touched their lips. Helen tried hard, made gestures and was greatly frustrated. Many times she was so angry that she kicked and screamed and was deeply exhausted. Helen was unfulfilled, so many times she took out her anger on others. She troubled her companion Martha and would dominate her without any reason. Helen would also hurt Ella, her nurse. Many times she was naughty and regretted it later. The whole family tolerated and supported Helen because of her deprivations. Helen admitted that she took unfair advantage of most of the situations. Helen had become temperamental so she would mostly insist on having her way. Once she locked her mother in the store and would not let her out. Helen would upturn the cradle of her little sister Mildred and make her cry. So Helen’s outlet for her pent-up frustrations was her anger and unemotional behavior.
OR
Helen depended upon books not only for pleasure, wisdom but also for information to which she had no access, due to her deprivations. She lacked the company of young girls of her age, so books filled the void of her life and Helen was extremely proud of her “book friend.” Initially, Helen read a few books in raised like print like Our World and Mrs. Sullivan would spell some poems or stories in her hand. Helen’s mind was very impressionable and she retained many words and expressions, so her friends were surprised at the richness of her vocabulary. Her first book that she deeply read with great understanding was Little Lord Fauntleroy. This book sparked Helen’s true interest in reading. She read lots of books like ‘Bible stories’, The Arabian Nights. She especially loved reading Heidi, Robinson Crusoe, and Little Women. Helen also loved reading stories of animals, especially The Jungle Book. She had a great interest in reading books relating to ancient history. She had read the Bible before but understood its stories in their true essence only in her later years. She also enjoyed the German or French literature along with poets like Wordsworth, Herrick, and writers like Mark Twain. Helen befriended books and like true friends they never deserted her.

(i) मैक्सवेल का दक्षिण-हस्त अंगुष्ठ नियम-इस नियम के अनुसार, यदि हमें विद्युत धारावाही चालक तार को अपने दायें चुंबकीय क्षेत्र । हाथ से इस प्रकार पकड़े कि अंगूठा चालक में जाती हुई। विद्युतधारा की दिशा की ओर संकेत करे तो आपकी अंगुलियाँ चालक के चारों ओर चुंबकीय क्षेत्र की क्षेत्र रेखाओं की दिशा । में लिपटी होंगी। मैक्सवेल दक्षिण-हस्त अंगुष्ठ नियम

(ii) चालक तार में विद्युतधारा दिशा Q से P की तरफ है, इसलिए चुबंकीय क्षेत्र की दिशा (दक्षिण-हस्त अंगुष्ठ नियम के अनुसार) ‘A’ बिंदु पर कागज़ के अंदर की तरफ तथा ‘B’ बिंदु पर कागज के बाहर की तरफ होगी। ‘A’ बिंदु पर चुबंकीय क्षेत्र ‘B’ बिंदु की तुलना में अधिक प्रबल होगा क्योंकि चुबंकीय क्षेत्र की प्रबलता चालक तार से बिंदु की दूरी के विपरीत अनुपाती होती है।

उत्तर 7-
(i) फैरस सल्फेट के क्रिस्टल गर्म करने से पहले हरे रंग के होते हैं। गर्म करने पर इनका रंग भूरी हो जाता है। गर्म करते समय फैरिक ऑक्साइड के निर्माण के कारण क्रिस्टलों का रंग भूरा हो जाता है।
(ii) गर्म करते समय SO₂ तथा SO₃ गैसे निष्कासित होती हैं।

उत्तर 8-
(i) विद्युत बल्बों में सामान्यतः रासायनिक रूप से अक्रियाशील गैसें भरी जाती हैं क्योंकि ये गैसें बल्ब के गर्म तंतु (टंगस्टन) के साथ अभिक्रिया नहीं करतीं परिणामस्वरूप विद्युत बल्ब का फिलामेंट लंबी अवधि तक चलता है।
(ii) तांबे तथा एल्युमिनियम की तारों को विद्युत संचारण के लिए उपयोग में लाया जाता है क्योंकि इनकी प्रतिरोधकता बहुत कम है और इसलिए ये धातुएँ विद्युत की बहुत अच्छी सुचालक हैं।
(iii) फ्यूज़ तार को विद्युत यंत्र के साथ श्रेणी क्रम में इसलिए लगाया जाता है क्योंकि विद्युत परिपथ द्वारा अधिक मात्रा में विद्युत प्रवाहित करने पर फ्यूज़ तार गर्म होकर पिघल जाती है। इससे सारी परिपथ टूट जाता है तथा यंत्र खराब होने से बच जाता है।
अथवा
(a) किसी विद्युत धारावाही पाश के प्रत्येक बिंदु पर उसके चारों ओर उत्पन्न चुंबकीय क्षेत्र को निरूपित करने वाले संकेंद्री वृत्तों का साइज़ तार से दूर जाने पर निरंतर बड़ा होता जाता है। वृत्ताकर पाश के केंद्र पर पहुँचते ही, इन बाहरी वृत्तों के चाप सरल रेखाओं जैसे प्रतीत होते हैं। चुबंकीय क्षेत्र प्रबलता वृत के केन्द्र से बिन्दु की दूरी के व्युत्क्रम अनुपाती होती है इसलिए चुबंकीय क्षेत्र रेखाएँ, पाश के केन्द्र से दूर जाने पर एक-दूसरे से दूर हटती जाती हैं।

(b) चुबंकीय क्षेत्र रेखाओं के दो गुण
(i) दो चुबंकीय क्षेत्र रेखाएँ आपस में एक दूसरे को कभी भी काटतीं नहीं हैं।
(ii) ये रेखाएँ उत्तरी ध्रुव से आरंभ होकर चुबंक के दक्षिणी ध्रुव पर समाप्त होती हैं।

उत्तर 9-
मनुष्य के पाचन तंत्र से जुड़ी तीन ग्रंथियाँ निम्नलिखित हैं :
(i) लार ग्रंथियाँ मुख गुहिका में होती हैं तथा यह लार बनाती हैं। लार में लार एमिलेस नामक एक एंजाइम होता है जो कि भोजन में उपस्थित स्टार्च को शर्करा में बदल देता है।
(ii) यकृत सब से बड़ी ग्रंथि है तथा यह पित्तरस बनाती है। पित्तरस आमाशय से आने वाले अम्लीय भोजन को अग्न्याशयिक (pancreatic) एंजाइमों की क्रिया के लिए क्षारीय बनाता है। पित्त लवण भोजन में उपस्थित वसा को छोटी-छोटी बूंदों में अपघटित करता है ताकि वसा का पाचन आसानी से हो सके।
(iii) अग्नाशय एक बड़ी ग्रंथि है जो अग्नाशयी रस स्रावित करती है। अग्नाशय रस में
• एमीलेस एंजाइम, जो स्टार्च को ग्लूकोज़ के रूप में पचाता है;
• ट्रेप्सिन एंजाईम, जो प्रोटीन को एमिनो अम्ल के रूप में पचाता है; तथा ।
• लाइपेस एंजाइम, जो इमल्सीकृत वसा को वसा अम्ल के रुप में पचाता है;
सम्मिलित हैं। अग्नाशयी रस क्षारीय माध्यम में काम करता है।

उत्तर 10-
(a) यह हार्मोन ऑक्सिन है।
(b) जब पौधे पर प्रकाश एक ओर से पड़ता है तो उसका तना प्रकाश की ओर मुड़ जाता है। ऐसा इसलिए होता है क्योंकि तने की छाया वाले भाग में ऑक्सिन अधिक मात्रा में बनता है, जिसके कारण उस तरफ तने की वृद्धि अधिक हो जाती है, जबकि तने के प्रकाश वाले भाग में ऑक्सिन कम बनता है इसलिए उस तरफ तने की वृद्धि कम होती है।

उत्तर 11-
कार्बोक्सिलिक अम्ल, C₂H₄O₂:

उत्तर 12-
(a) यह आवर्त 4 का तत्व है क्योंकि इसके 4 ऊर्जा कोश होते हैं और एक तत्व की आवर्त संख्या इसके ऊर्जा कोशों की संख्या के बराबर होती है।
(b) यह तत्व दूसरे समूह से संबंधित है क्योंकि इसके सबसे बाहरी कक्ष में 2 इलेक्ट्रॉन हैं और किसी तत्व के बाहरी कोश में उपस्थित इलेक्ट्रान से उसके समूह की संख्याएँ संयोजकता ज्ञात होती है तथा कोशों | की कुल संख्या उसकी आवर्त संख्या होती है।
तत्व ‘X’ 2 इलेक्ट्रॉन खोकर या 6 इलेक्ट्रॉन प्राप्त करके निष्क्रिय गैस विन्यास को प्राप्त कर सकता है। क्योंकि 2 इलेक्ट्रॉन को खोकर निष्क्रिय गैस विन्यास को प्राप्त करना आसान है। अतः इसकी संयोजकता 2 है।
अथवा

(i) तत्व Q की संयोजकता 3 है क्योंकि इसके सबसे बाहरी कक्ष में 3 इलेक्ट्रॉन हैं।
(ii) तत्व P व Q धातु हैं क्योंकि ये तत्व निष्क्रिय गैस विन्यास को प्राप्त करने के लिए क्रमशः 2 और 3 इलेक्ट्रॉन खो देते हैं और जो तत्व इलेक्ट्रॉन खोते हैं वे धातु होते हैं।
तत्व R व S अधातु हैं क्योंकि ये तत्व निष्क्रिय गैस विन्यास को प्राप्त करने के लिए या तो इलेक्ट्रॉन खोते हैं या पाते हैं और जो तत्व इलेक्ट्रॉन खोते या पाते हैं अधातु कहलाते हैं।
(iii) तत्व P सबसे अधिक क्षारीय ऑक्साइड बनायेगा क्योंकि यह दिए गए चारों तत्वों में से सबसे अधिक अभिक्रियाशील धातु है।

उत्तर 13-
एक जीव के ऐसे लक्षण (अथवा विशेषता) जो वंशानुगत नहीं होते परंतु वातावरण की प्रतिक्रियास्वरूप उसके द्वारा अपने जीवनकाल में उपार्जित किए जाते हैं, उपार्जित लक्षण कहलाते हैं। जीव के उपार्जित लक्षण उसकी भावी पीढ़ियों में वंशानुगत नहीं होते क्योंकि ये लक्षण उस व्यक्ति या जीव की जनन कोशिकाओं के डी०एन०ए० में परिवर्तन नहीं ला पाते।
उदाहरण : एक खिलाड़ी द्वारा अपने खेल को खेलने के लिए अपनी मांसपेशियों को विशेष प्रकार से तैयार करना। ऐसे लक्षणों को उपार्जित लक्षण कहते हैं।

उत्तर 14-
(i) दंत चिकित्सक अवतल दर्पणों का प्रयोग करते हैं क्योंकि इससे रोगी के दाँतों का सीधा व बड़ा प्रतिबिम्ब दिखाई देता है। जब दंत चिकित्सक दाँत को दर्पण व उसके F बिन्दु के बीच में रखते हैं तो प्रतिबिम्ब सीधा व बड़ी बनता है। इससे दाँत के दोष का पता लगाने में आसानी हो जाती है।
(ii) सौर भट्टियों में बड़े-बड़े अवतल दर्पणों का उपयोग परावर्तक (reflectors) के रूप में किया जाता है। सौर भट्टियों को दर्पण के फोकस पर रखा जाता है। इसके बाद अवतल दर्पण द्वारा सौर किरणों को भट्टी पर फोकस किया जाता है फलस्वरूप सौर भट्टी का तापक्रम बहुत अधिक बढ़ जाता है। यहाँ तक कि इन सौर भट्टियों में स्टील तक को पिघलाया जा सकता है।

उत्तर 15-
इंद्रधनुष को हम बरसात होने के बाद सूर्य निकलने पर देखते हैं। यह सूर्य के सामने उससे विपरीत दिशा की ओर दिखाई देता है।
इन्द्रधनुष का बनना : वर्षा के बाद, जब सूर्य निकलता है तो उस समय, वायुमंडल में उपस्थित जल की बूंदें छोटे-छोटे प्रिज्म के रूप में कार्य कर सौर प्रकाश के सफेद प्रकाश का विक्षेपण कर उसे सात रंगों में तोड़ देती हैं। ये सात रंगों की किरणें उन पानी की बूंदों से बाहर आकर, इन्द्रधनुष बनाती हैं।

उत्तर 16-
(a) ताँबे को उसके सल्फॉइड अयस्क Cu₂S से प्राप्त किया जाता है। अयस्क का सांद्रण झाग प्लवन विधि द्वारा किया जाता है। फिर सांद्रित अयस्क का वायु में भर्जन किया जाता है। तब अयस्क कॉपर ऑक्साईड में बदल जाता है।
2Cu₂S + 3O₂ (g) – Δ→ 2Cu₂O (s) + 2SO₂ (g)
कॉपर ऑक्साइड को वायु की अनुपस्थिति में गर्म किया जाता है। यह कॉपर धातु में Cu₂O को कम कर देता है। इस रासायनिक अभिक्रिया के समय SO₂ गैस उत्पन्न होती है जो प्राप्त हुए कॉपर के अंदर ही फंसी रह जाती है जिसके कारण कॉपर की सतह पर छाले जैसी संरचना दिखाई देती है।
2Cu₂O + Cu₂S – Δ→ 6Cu (s) + SO₂ (g)
(b) ताँबे का विद्युत अपघटनी परिष्करण-इस प्रक्रिया में अशुद्ध ताँबे को ऐनोड (धनात्मक) तथा शुद्ध ताँबे की एक पतली पट्टी को कैथोड (ऋणात्मक) बनाया जाता है। अम्लीकृत कॉपर सल्फेट के विलयन का उपयोग विद्युत अपघट्य के रूप में किया जाता है। उपकरणों को निम्न चित्रानुसार व्यवस्थित किया जाता है :

अम्लीकृत कॉपर सल्फेट को विलयन अपघट्य है। अशुद्ध ताँबा ऐनोड है जबकि शुद्ध ताँबे की पट्टी कैथोड का कार्य करती है। विद्युत धारा प्रवाहित करने पर शुद्ध ताँबा कैथोड पर निक्षेपित हो जाता है।
अथवा
(a) मैग्नीशियम (Mg) और सोडियम (Na) के क्रमशः 2 और 1 इलेक्ट्रॉन अपने परमाणुओं के बाह्यतम कोश में हैं। इसलिए वे आठ संयोजी इलेक्ट्रॉनों के निष्क्रिय गैस विन्यास को प्राप्त करने के लिए अपने इलेक्ट्रॉन खो देते हैं और सकारात्मक आयनों अथवा धनायनों का निर्माण करते हैं।

दूसरी ओर Cl के परमाणु में सात इलेक्ट्रॉन हैं इसलिए वह निष्क्रिय गैस विन्यास को प्राप्त करने के लिए एक इलेक्ट्रॉन को लेता है तथा एक नकारात्मक आयन अथवा ऋणायन का निर्माण करता है।

(c) आयनिक यौगिक अपनी ठोस अवस्था में विद्युतधारा का संचालन नहीं कर पाते क्योंकि ठोस अवस्था में इनके विपरीत आयनों के बीच अत्यधिक आकर्षण बल होने के कारण यह आयनमुक्त अवस्था में संचरण नहीं कर पाते।

उत्तर 17-
(a) अलग-अलग प्रतिरोधों से एक ही विद्युत धारा (I) प्रवाहित होती है, जब इनको एक श्रेणी क्रम में जोड़ा जाता है (जैसा कि चित्र में दिखाया गया है)

उत्तर 18-
(a) (i) सबसे बड़ी ग्रंथि-यकृत
(ii) वह ग्रंथि जो पाचक रस तथा हार्मोन दोनों स्रावित करती है-अग्न्याशय
(iii) वह भाग जहाँ पर पचा हुआ भोजन अवशोषित होता है-छोटी आंत
(iv) वह भाग जहाँ HCl उत्पन्न होता है-आमाशय

(b) प्रवर्ध-छोटी आंत विशेष रूप से भोजन पचाने के लिए अनुकूल है। छोटी आंत की भीतरी परत पर लाखों छोटी-छोटी उंगलियों जैसी संरचनाएँ होती हैं, वह प्रवर्ध (villi) कहलाते हैं, जो छोटी आंत की। भीतरी दीवारों को एक बहुत बड़ा सतही क्षेत्रफल प्रदान करते हैं। बड़ा सतही क्षेत्रफल पचे हुए भोजन को तेजी से अवशोषित करने में मदद करता है। प्रवर्ध में बहुत अधिक रक्त वाहिकाएँ होती हैं जो भोजन को अवशोषित कर शरीर की प्रत्येक कोशिका तक पहुँचाती हैं।

उत्तर 19-
‘X’ यौगिक एथेनॉल एल्कोहल (C₂H₅OH) है।
‘Y’ यौगिक एथीन (C₂H₄) है।

उत्तर 20-
फूलों के नर परागकणों का मादा के वर्तिकाग्र पर पहुँचने के प्रक्रम को परागण कहते हैं।
पादपों में परागण दो विधियों द्वारा होता है : (i) स्वयं परागण तथा (ii) पर परागण।
स्वयं परागण में एक फूल के परागकण, उसी फूल के वर्तिकाग्र पर गिरते हैं।
पर परागण में एक फूल के परागकण, उसी जाति के पौधों के किसी दूसरे फूल के वर्तिकाग्र पर वायु, जल, कीटों आदि द्वारा पहुँचाए जाते हैं।
यदि परागण क्रिया नहीं होगी, तो नर जनन कोशिकाएँ मादी जनन कोशिका (अण्डाणु) के पास नहीं पहुँच पायेंगी, अर्थात् निषेचन नहीं होगा। क्योंकि परागकणों से ही पराग नली में नर-जनन कोशिका बनती है। यही कोशिका अण्डाणु का निषेचन मादा के बीजाण्ड में करती है। इस प्रक्रिया को निषेचन के रूप में जाना जाता है।

उत्तर 21-

SECTION A
(Reading – 20 Marks)

Question 1.
Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow: (8)
1. Sacred trees form an important part of the ecological heritage of India. Most temples, towns, villages- and sometimes even Muslim dargahs- are associated with trees. Some plants are sacred to the individual deity; others are sacred to the place… Several plants have been worshipped in India from time immemorial. Wherever the tulsi grows—from the Indo-Gangetic plains to the shores of the Indian Ocean at Kanyakumari—it occupies a position of pride in the central courtyard of the house, tended to, carefully, by the housewife.

2. Apart from the elaborate myths connecting it to Krishna, the tulsi plant has several medicinal properties.

3. To protect and revere this plant with so many medicinal properties, it was designated as sacred, a fitting tribute to its role in providing invaluable healthcare. The worship of plants is an ancient phenomenon in India. It is probably the oldest form of worship. The association of a single tree with a sacred sthala or sthana is reflected in the chaitya vriksha and sthala vriksha or literature and society.

4. When people turned to food production, the Mother Goddess or the Earth Mother became the chief deity. Fertility, creation, and the world of plants and animals became her blessings to her devotees. The worship of the tree was the adoration of her creative abilities, symbolizing fertility so essential or the survival of the early people. Spirits—good or bad—were believed to reside in trees. If the trees were worshipped, then the resident spirits were pleased. As sacred forests were replaced by agriculture, a single tree was left and was designated as ‘sacred’ tree.

5. The earliest temples were little more than images placed under trees. Later, the tree and the image were enclosed by a fence made of wood, followed even by stone. Numerous references are made in the literature to trees as abodes of gods.

1.1. On the basis of your reading of the passage, answer any eight of the following questions in brief: (1 x 8 = 8)
(a) What forms an important part of Indian ecological heritage?
(b) What kind of trees are found in religious places? ‘
(c) Where can we find the Tulsi plant?
(d) What is the myth regarding the Tulsi plant?
(e) What is one of the oldest forms of worship in India?
(f) How did Mother Goddess become the chief deity?
(g) Why did people in the past worship plants and trees?
(h) How were the temples constructed in the past?
(i) Find the word in paragraph 3 which means the same as ‘costly’.

Question 2.
Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow: (12)
1. The time is now to save these magnificent cats before they vanish from the earth forever. There is little time left to preserve these animals; immediate action is required.

2. I cannot imagine, nor would I wish to live in a world without tigers… without these magnificent creatures in our forests living free—without captive populations carrying on the gene pool. The power and beauty of these animals is indisputable. Tigers are an integral part of the ecosystem, as, they are a major link in the food chain. Tigers have been bestowed magical and supernatural properties by many societies, and have also been revered as gods. All living creatures of mother earth depend on one another for survival. We as human beings are brothers and sisters to every living being, from the plants to the animals to each other.

3. Crimes like these—the killing of tigers—must be stopped. They have often killed in the most barbaric, the most unbelievably cruel ways. I ask you—the reader—if learning of things like this moves you at all, then take that energy and do what you can to stop the killing of these magnificent animals. Write to your government, write to the governments of tiger countries and urge them to protect tigers. Penalties for killing tigers, and other protected wildlife need to be strongly enforced—and strong enough as to be a complete deterrent to the poaching of tigers, and also deter those who profit from such killings.

4. Extremist groups would ban all exotic animals from captivity because of small numbers of individuals that mistreat their animals, and unfortunately, the whole zoo “industry” and caring private owners get painted with the same brush. The vast majority of zoos big and small, treat their animals well, feed them well and give them proper environment and enrichment. The numbers of bad homes are small, but they do exist. The Animals Rights Organization should make sure they target only the bad homes and leave those providing a good, happy and healthy ‘ home for animals alone.

5. They don’t realize that banning all exotics from captivity could spell the end for many species of animals. Species whose numbers in the wild are extremely low, such as the Clouded Leopard, Siberian tiger, South China tiger and so forth. Zoos, sanctuaries, and responsible, knowledgeable and caring private owners are rapidly becoming the last havens to preserve ever-dwindling species of animals. These places may well, in the not so far future, hold the last remaining tigers—gems for the future who should be nurtured and protected.

6. Caring for tigers is our immense responsibility. Not just to the single tiger in your care, but to his or her species, and all tigers. Simply to own a tiger and keep him or her in your backyard as a pet is not enough, nor is it acceptable to keep this animal to yourself. You, the owner, owe it to all tigers—wild and those held in captivity—and to the future generations of these animals to educate the public about tigers—and help to change people’s opinions about wildlife preservation. Education is key to developing sensitivity to and awareness of our environment. Our children hold the hope for the future of the tiger. Heightened awareness of environmental issues will help assure our children grow up to respect and care for our global environment. Think Globally—Act Locally!

2.1. On the basis of your reading of the passage, answer any four of the following questions in brief: (2 x 4 = 8)
(a) Why is the writer unable to imagine a world without tigers?
(b) What can you do to stop killing of tigers?
(c) What are the extremist groups banning? What could be its consequence?
(d) Think Globally—Act Locally! How is this possible?
(e) What should animals rights organization do for animals?

(a) The power and beauty of tigers are ……….
(i) disputable
(ii) indisputable
(iii) within dispute

Answer 10.
Buddha wanted Kisa Gotami to understand that the life of the mortals in this world is troubled, brief and full of pain. There is no way in which those who are born can avoid dying. All young and old, fools and wise are subject to death. The world is afflicted with death and decay. So the wise do not grief knowing the reality of the world. If one does grief, his pain would be greater and his body would suffer. Thus Gotami could understand this when she could not get mustard seeds from any house that was not visited by death. The medicine to bring her dead son back to life was Buddha’s way to tell her reality of life and death.

Answer 11.
Anne is afraid to confide in people even in her own elder sister, Margot because she is scared that she might be ridiculed by her family and friends. When Anne remarks that paper is more patient than people, she wants to convey the difficulty she has in expressing herself openly in front of others. Anne, again and again, claims that there are two distinct sides of her personality – one who is happy, frivolous while the other one is serious, sensitive and pure. She is afraid that if people see her other side of personality which is pure and genuine, they will make fun of her and consider her ridiculous and sentimental. So she never shows her inner self. She adds that what she says is not what she feels. People in the Annexe think that she is a flirt, boy-crazy and talkative. Even if it hurts her, she pretends that it does not bother her.

Anne tends to be the happy-go-lucky in public, but we, the readers, get a direct view of her serious, sensitive and warm personality. She wears a mask of a frivolous, carefree teenager but when we go through her thoughts and feelings towards others, we find a different Anne—a very matured and serious girl. She herself admits that she is always being taken as a ‘light-hearted’. Anne thinks that she is used to putting up with. The nice Anne never comes up on stage in public. She comes up when she is alone. She sometimes feels sad and hurt as she is not able to bring out her original self because she is surrounded by negative opinions, dismayed looks and mocking faces that do not allow her to show her inner self. It is a double personality syndrome that nearly all people have, but Anne’s two personalities keep out of her diary and everyone can read and notice them.
OR
Anne moved to Annexe when she was just thirteen. She thought that she would be in the Annexe for a short while. Soon the suffocating atmosphere became part of her life, a constant companion. Her fear and depression increased. It was difficult for a teenager to control her emotions and outbursts. Gradually she experiences physical and emotional transformation. She started maturing and ripening. She accepted the prevailing circumstances and got ready for the worst. Nature now became her source of inner happiness and she learned to enjoy it from her hiding place. The scarcity of provisions stopped tormenting her. She became adjusting in nature. She found that she could be the master of her nature and needed no outside support. She acquired self-confidence and this gave her extra strength to control her temper. She stopped pinpointing faults in other people. Her thoughts underwent a change. She became pensive, thoughtful and much balanced. She penned down those ideas which could be expressed only by an intellectual. She became analytical and that gave her the power to see the world objectively. A girl transformed into a woman and that too very thoughtful and understanding.

During the rainy days, Helen kept busy indoors, amusing herself like other girls of her age. She liked to knit, crochet or play a game of chess with her friends. She also loved to play solitaire with playing cards. Helen enjoyed the company of little children, the best. Their prattle frolic and interest pleased her immensely. They could not spell in her hands nor could Helen read their lips but their happiness gave great joy to Helen. Helen could not play ‘dumb show’ with them and her mistakes would let the children burst into noise laughter. Helen was interested in going to museum and art stores and these visits were very inspiring to her. She traced every line and curve with her fingertips and could sense the emotions of the artists. She was particularly impressed by the medallion of Homer, the blind poet and could imagine his glorious songs. Helen was also fond of visiting the theatre. She preferred and enjoyed the plays better when they were being performed rather than reading them. She also had the privilege of meeting some great actors and actresses like Mr. Jefferson. Helen could not forget Mr. Jefferson’s enactment of the role “Rip Van Winkle”. After the play, Helen was much excited to touch his flowing hair and his dress. So Helen’s family provided all kinds of amusement to Helen and Miss Sullivan remained her constant companion and helper in all these activities. All these amusements add to her personality and Helen enjoyed them.

Helen appeared for her preliminary examinations for Radcliffe from 29th June to 3rd July in 1897. The subjects she had opted were Elementary and Advanced German, French, Latin, English, Greek and Roman History making it nine hours in all. Every student was required to pass in sixteen hours—twelve for elementary and four for advanced. The papers were brought to Radcliffe by a special messenger. Every student had a Roll. No. Helen was asked to sit in a separate room so that the noise of the typewriter should not disturb the others. On the first day of examination, Mr. Gilman read out the paper sentence by sentence and made Helen repeat the words. He read out by means of manual alphabet. The papers were difficult and Helen typed the answers on the typewriter. Mr. Gilman read out the answers and Helen made whatever corrections or changes she wished to make. Helen never had this kind of advantage later and she had no chance to correct her errors. Later Mr. Gilman dispatched her papers with his certificate. Helen could fare better in her preliminaries because of the great help rendered by Mr. Gilman and because of the subjects which had been more interesting to her. Helen passed in every subject and received honors in German and English.
