Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer to each question out of the four alternatives.

"Tryst with Destiny" was a speech delivered by Jawaharlal Nehru, the first Prime Minister of independent India, to the Indian Constituent Assembly in Parliament, on 14th August 1947. It is considered to be one of the greatest speeches of all times and to be a landmark oration that captures the essence of the triumphant culmination of the largely non­violent Indian independence struggle against the British Empire in India.

"Long years ago we made a tryst with destiny, and now the time comes when we shall redeem our pledge, not wholly or in full measure, but very substantially. Freedom and power bring responsibility. The responsibility rests upon the assembly, a sovereign body representing the sovereign people of India. The service of India means the service of the millions who suffer. It means the ending of poverty and ignorance and disease and inequality of opportunity. We cannot encourage communalism or narrow­mindedness, for no nation can be great whose people are narrow in thought or in action.

To the people of India, whose representatives we are, this is no time for petty and destructive criticism, no time for ill will or blaming others. We have to build the noble mansion of free India where all her children may dwell".

Q:

Find the odd one out of the following number series?

9 5 6 14 56 488

A) 56 B) 6
C) 14 D) 5
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 56

Explanation:

The given number series follows a pattern that,

9

9 x 0.5 + 0.5 = 5

5 x 1 + 1 = 6

6 x 2 + 2 = 14

14 x 4 + 4 = 60 (not equals to 56)

60 x 8 + 8 = 488.

 

Hence, the odd one in the given number series is 56.

Q:

Statement I :

Incised meanders are formed in the mature stage of a river.

Statement II :

Incised meanders are characterized by rejuvenation and upliftment of land.

A) Both the statements are individually true and Statement II is the correct explanation of Statement I B) Both the statements are individually true but Statement II is not the correct explanation of Statement I
C) Statement I is true but Statement II is false D) Statement I is false but Statement II is true  
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Statement I is false but Statement II is true  

Explanation:

Rejuvenation occurs when the river’s base level falls (i.e. when sea level falls). This can be a consequence of either a fall in the amount of sea water or the land rising. Incised meanders are meanders which are particularly well developed and occur when a river’s base level has fallen giving the river a large amount of vertical erosion power, allowing it to down cut. Hence, 2nd statement is correct.

There are two types of incised meanders, entrenched meanders and ingrown meanders.As they are products of rejuvenation, they are not formed in mature stage of a river

Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer to each question out of the four alternatives.


Manja, or the glass-coated string used for flying kites, not only poses threat to humans, animals and birds but also to trees. A study by the country's oldest botanical garden has revealed that it poses a great threat to trees. But how can a snapped string struck in a tree kill the tree? Apparently, it does so by allying with the creepers in the garden.


A research paper by three scientists of the Acharya Jagdish Chandra Bose Indian Botanic Garden, located in West Bengal's Howrah district, illustrates in detail how the manja, in collusion with climbers, does the damage. "The abandoned, torn kite strings act as an excellent primary supporting platform for the tender climbers, giving easy passage to reach the top of the trees. Lateral branches from the top of the climber and other accessory branches from the ground reaches the top taking support of the first climber, completely covers the treetop, thus inhibiting the penetration of sunlight," says the research paper.


Abandoned, torn kite strings stuck in trees benefits whom?

 

A) Humans B) Creepers
C) Birds D) Trees
