Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer to each question out of the four alternatives.I don’t know whether the Madras Photographic Society has anything to do with the recently-publicised Chennai Photo Biennales, the first last year and the nextscheduled for 2018, but participant or not, it certainly deserves a bow for being the country’s first photographic society. Its founder was an Army doctor, AlexanderHunter. The Society was founded in 1857, shortly after Lord Canning arrived as Governor-General. Canning and Lady Canning, both photography enthusiasts, wereresponsible for creating the famed Government series, The People of India. Hunter had still earlier, in 1850, privately started the Madras School of Arts. The School,taken over by Government in 1852, moved from Popham’s Broadway to Poonamallee High Road. There, he and an eight-member committee revised the syllabus,offering two streams, Industrial and Artistic. Hunter was put in charge of the institution, renamed the Government School of Industrial Arts, in 1855. It was the firstformal school of Art in the country. In it, Hunter introduced Photography.Hunter retired in 1868, to be succeeded by Robert Chisholm. No mean ph otographer, Hunter encouraged the School, it is now the Government College of Arts andCrafts to build up a photographic collection. Unfortunately, little is left of his work, especially the monuments of South India captured by Government photographerLinnaeus Tripe and his assistant C Iyahsawmi. Hunter himself did a series of pictures of the ‘Seven Pagodas’ (Mahabalipuram) and worked with his wards onphotographs of the five hill tribes of the Nilgiris. It was at a prize-giving of the School that Hunter urged the Governor to provide it more suitable premises. Theycame up on the PH Road site in Chisholm’s time and to his design — and remain there.Besides Artistic which was the other course on offer at the erstwhile Madras School of Arts?1).Industrial2). History3). Journal ism4). Craft |

Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer to each question out of the four alternatives.As the 23rd conference of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change in Bonn shifts into high gear, developing countries including India are focussing on theimperatives of ensuring adequate financing for mitigation and adaptation. They are moving ahead with specific instruments for loss and damage they suffer due todestructive climate-linked events. India's progress in reducing the intensity of its greenhouse gas emissions per unit of GDP by 20-25% from 2005 levels by 2020,based on the commitment made in Copenhagen in 2009, has been positive. Early studies also suggest that it is on track to achieve the national pledge under the2015 Paris Agreement for a 33-35% cut in emissions intensity per unit of growth from the same base year (2015) by 2030, and thus heed the 2°C global warminggoal. Since this performance is predicated on a growth rate of just over 7%, and the parallel target for 40% share of renewable energy by that year (2030), thenational road map is clear. What is not, however, is the impact of extreme weather events such as droughts and floods that would have a bearing on economicgrowth. It is in this context that the rich countries must give up their rigid approach towards the demands of low and middle income countries, and come to an earlyresolution on the question of financing of mitigation, adaptation and compensation. Of course, India could further raise its ambition in the use of green technologiesand emissions cuts, which would give it the mantle of global climate leadership.What is the Paris Agreement's central aim?1). To kee p rise in global temperature below 2°C2). To compel rich countries to give up their rigid approach3). Force developing countries to be more ambitious in thei r emission cuts4). The world should have atleast 40% energy from renewables |

Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer to each question out of the four alternatives.Eight north Indian Ocean countries, namely, Bangladesh, India, the Maldives, Myanmar, Oman, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Thailand, were asked to contribute names sothat a combined list could be compiled. Each country gave eight names and a combined list of 64 names was prepared. This list is currently in use, and all cyclonesarising in the north Indian Ocean are named from this list, with one name from each country being used in turn. Almost 38 or 39 names from the list have been usedup, but since many cyclones dissipate long before they hit land, their names rarely figure in the papers or other media. The names that people do know about, andremember are, naturally, those that were most destructive ones, or very recent. Aila, in 2009 is remembered with a shudder for the enormous destruction it caused inWest Bengal and Bangladesh; Phaillin, also for the damage it caused when it hit the Odisha coast in 2013. Two harmless cyclones, which also might remain inpeople’s memory, are the more recent ones of 2014 — Hudhud, which threatened the east coast of India and Nilofar, which was expected to, but did not, devastate thewestern coast. The names in the cyclone list are usually words one associates with storms; words which mean water or wind or lightning in various nationallanguages. Sometimes they are names of other things — birds or flowers or precious stones. The name ‘Aila’, contributed by the Maldives means ‘fire’, the name‘Phaillin’ from Thailand means sapphire, the name ‘Hudhud’ from Oman is the name of a bird, probably the hoopoe, and the name ‘Nilofar’, given by Pakistan, is theUrdu name of the lotus or water lily. The eight names suggested by India, and which are in the list of 64, are Agni, Akaash, Bijli, Jal, Leher, Megh, Sagar and Vayu,meaning in that order, fire, sky, lightning, water, wave, cloud, sea and wind. Five of these names (that is, up to Leher) have been used so far.Which name suggested by India has not been used so far?1). Leher2). Agni3). Bijli4). Vayu |
