Read the passage carefully and select the best answer to each question out of the given four alternatives.Let’s move to the crackling topic of the SC’s firecracker ban in Delhi. Like me and millions of other children raised in India, Masaba must have celebrated Diwali withnew clothes, sweets and the quintessential rockets, anars and phuljharis. But when she supports the ban on firecrackers because of the pollution it creates, theearthworms once again flail desperately, not by quoting statistics or making logical arguments to refute her point but by muck-raking. ‘Don’t mess with our ancienttraditions,’ they say. I would like to tell them that if we stuck to all our traditions just because they’re ancient then we should still be pushing widows into funeralpyres to commit sati and get our children married off at the age of eight.As much as I would like to see the delight on my daughter’s face — the s ame glee I had as a child — while bursting atom bombs and laris, it is the present scenarioand not nostalgia that must dictate my actions. If even doctors welcome the ban as they feel fumes from firecrackers take pollution levels beyond safe limits, thenperhaps we need to change our traditional values and create new ones. If saying that makes me a bad Indian, then so be it.One of the greatest privileges I have — in fact because of the very background that they are trying to smear — stems from t he fact that I was lucky enough to havea mother who has raised me to believe that equality isn’t one of my privileges but it is my right. One that was hard won by some brave and fearless women, womenwho set the right precedent for other women by standing against inequality.The flailing trollers do not realize that you cannot shame us by pulling down our mothers, those fiercely independent women who have lived life on their own terms,who have not just talked the talk but walked the walk. Yes, you can reason with us by presenting a logical argument but this seems to be beyond the resources ofthese anonymous creatures hiding their faces in the mud.And yes one last thing, for all those claiming to be the flag -bearers of ancient traditions, it would be lovely if you adhered to your so-called traditional wayscompletely. Why do you write open letters, tweet and troll in the language of the Brits? Why not go traditional there as well, use only our ancient languages andspare us your venom-filled and grammatically incorrect English?What do you infer by the term "not just talked the talk but walked the walk"?1).It means not just talking but doing some action too.2).It means not just talking but walking too.3). It means presenting logical arguments.4). It means fighting for your rights |

A passage is given with five questions following it. Read the passage carefully and select the best answer to each question out of the given fouralternatives.Just as space permeates everything in the universe, love permeates every part, every aspect of creation. If there is one answer to the question, “How and why doesthis world exist?” the answer, in one word, is ‘Love’. Rather, the answer is ‘Pure Love’, since the word ‘love’ has lost its meaning.Your very existence is an expression of pure unconditional love of the Source (you may call it Consciousness, Creator, God, Divine Self). This is the truth of yourbeing. True love transcends both love and hatred. It is unconditional, unquestioning, boundless, unchanging love. It is overflowing love of the Source for the Sourcethrough all of creation.True love is way beyond the personalized love that two or more individuals assert on one another. Personalized love, though apparently selfless, is rooted in desiresand conditional satisfaction.We have been brought up in a society that judges love based on conditions. We have been made to believe that we can receive love only when we fit into people’sexpectations. If we are not good enough, we will be deprived of love.These beliefs have influenced the collective psyche of families, groups, communities, and societies since generations to such an extent that love has been reduced tofear of denial.We need to shift from the paradigm of false conditional love to the essence of pure unconditional love .The experience of true love comes with surrender of the false ‘I’, in letting go of the feeling of separateness. Without this sacrifice, it is not possible to attain divinelove. When this separate ‘I’ is discarded, you embrace everything in oneness and catch a glimpse of pure love.True love can be experienced only through giving, not by demanding. People who exist in your life are not here to love you. They are here to remind you that youare the Source of Love.By knowing that you are the Source of love, you can love yourself, instead of waiting to receive love from the world. Ask yourself, “Why do I need an agent to lovemyself?” Waiting for the world to love you, is like hiring an agent to love yourself!It is time for you to honor yourself as the Source of love. You have undertaken this human journey to realize and express the boundless love that you truly are.According to the passage, whom to honour as the source of love?1). Family2). Community3). Society4). Yourself |

Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer to each question out of the four alternatives.There may be some merit in this, but clearly, we need to look at the hawkers issue more broadly. For quite some time now, many middle-class citizens groups haveurged strict action against hawkers, asking residents not to favour their business. The terms routinely used to refer to hawkers and vendors is “menace”, with theireveryday businesses described as “encroachments” on public space. This, despite the fact that an existing 2014 central law, the Street Vendors (Protection ofLivelihood and Regulation of Street Vending) Act, protects their presence as a part of the right to livelihood. The law specifies the number of licensed hawkerspermitted and outlines the process to implement a fair street vending policy. Mumbai and other cities have failed to implement the law to date, with the Mumbaimunicipality having frozen hawker licenses since 1978. As a result, only a fraction of Mumbai’s hawkers are licensed. Hawkers desire legal status — their illegalitymakes them vulnerable to extortion and harassment by a whole range of State and non-State actors.Unfortunately, by looking upon the hawkers question as only a clearing of pavements issue, we have neglected to see their contribution in several other ways. Firstly,hawkers are not the only ones sullying our pavements. But they are far easier to target as villains than the middle-class who use pavements for car parking andshops/restaurants who unabashedly extend their shopfronts onto footpaths. Secondly, hawking is also an employment issue. It provides the urban poor a means toearn a legitimate livelihood, and in fact, many sell goods produced in small-scale or home-based industries.What is the positive externality of hawking?1).It makes city dwelling more fruitful2). It is a tourist attraction3). It slows down traffic and hence accidents4).It generates employment opportunities |

Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer to each question out of the four alternatives.It is a labour of love and the result of painstaking research. Chikankari - A Lucknawi Tradition by Paola Manfredi, an Italian, is a book that shows her close and longassociation with the craft. Lucknow’s chikankari is known across the world yet very little research or documentation has been done. Articles or features haveappeared off and on but this book is amongst the first of its kind, which aims to document the vast treasure called Chikan. What makes the book extremelyinteresting is that unlike other books that tend to rely on second hand material, with exhaustive references and quotes, Paola Manfredi has filled her tome withpassionate grass-roots level research. The narrative more in the nature of a personal journey, with all the quirks and street-smart practicality, makes the bookrefreshing. As Paola says in the book, it is not a scholarly or academic research but more of a documentation of the world of chikankari.Paola questions the use of chikan as a word for embroidery, highlighting that it has a broader connotation encompassing haute couture, the fine art of making agarment, embroidering it and finishing it with finesse. She is no stranger to chikankari having worked with SEWA and several craftsmen. Her love for white on whiteembroidery also found a calling in chikan. Paola came to India to work in textile exports and as she says, “If you like textiles … India is a heaven, an inexhaustibletreasure trove.”Name one type of garment design style that Paola loves?1). Embroi dery on cotton cloth2)2).Colorful embroidery3).White on white embroidery4). Silk work on khadi cloth |
