Passage Based MCQ

Passage No. 1

Disability refers to any kind of physical or mental incapacity that limits a person’s ability to work. Yet it is seldom that we have thanked God for the gift of Good health and well being. The smallest actions like seeing the sunrise, brushing our teeth, popping peanuts into your mouth come so naturally and effortlessly, and Yet we are never satisfied, always discontented. It is not so for the disabled. For them it requires immense concentration, effort, will power, energy and a lot of time. Despite this, it could be a long way of perfection.

It takes great courage and determination to cope with disability.Give them encouragement, facilities and resources, and then watch them as they learn, earn, play, work and even start their families.

He saw that the first mason reported for his work late, did his work halfheartedly and sluggishly enjoyed longer respite, frequently checked the time on his wrist-watch and left the work before time.
The second mason was very punctual in arriving and leaving, and did his work methodically and conscientiously. The third mason,however, would come before time, took little rest in the interval and often worked overtime.
The man naturally got curious and wanted to know the three masons’ outlook towards their work. He asked them what they were doing.

Passage No. 4
 
Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow :
What is soil?
Soil is the loose top layer of Earth’s surface. Plants, depend on soil. It holds them up. It provides them with food and water.
Soil is made of particles. These very small pieces mostly come from rocks broken down by weathering. Other soil particles come from rotting remains of plants and animals. The part of soil that comes from living things is called organic matter.
Many small organisms live in soil. They include worms, bacteria and fungi. Fungi are like plants, but they aren’t green. And they have no leaves, flowers or roots. The organisms feed on dead plants and animals.
They cause them to decay or break down. The decayed plant and animal matter is called humus. Humus makes the soil dark. It provides the nutrients, plants need to grow.
Soil develops in layers. The top layer consists mostly of humus. It is called topsoil. The next layer down is called subsoil. Subsoil contains more rock particles than topsoil and less humus. It is not as good for growing plants. The layer below the subsoil has many pieces of rocks. The pieces get bigger when they are deeper in the ground. Most plants cannot grow in this rocky layer. The soil layers all rest on solid rock. It is called bedrock. There are many types of soil. Soil can be of many colours. They can also have different textures. Texture is the size of the particles that make up soil.
Clay is a type of soil with many small particles. The particles are packed together tightly. Clay can hold a lot of water, which makes it heavy and sticky. Sand has much larger particles than clay. It feels rough. There’s a lot of air space between the particles, so water drains through this soil easily.
Loam contains a mix of sand and clay. Loam is the best soil for growing plants. It lets just the right amount of water pass through for plant roots to take in.

(a) Humus

(c) Subsoil
(d) Rock bed
 
Answer: A

Answer: B
 
Question. Where do we find microorganism which help in the formation of humus?

Passage No. 5
 
Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow :
Some animals in a forest decided to start a school. The students included a bird, a squirrel, a fish, a dog, a rabbit and a mentally retarded eel. A board was formed to determine the curriculum and it was decided that flying, tree climbing, swimming and burrowing would give a broad-based education. All animals were required to take all subjects.
The bird was excellent at flying and was getting A’s but when it came to burrowing, it kept breaking its break and wings and started failing. Pretty soon, it started making C’s in flying and, of course, in tree climbing and swimming it was getting F’s. The squirrel was great at tree climbing, but was failing in swimming. The fish was the best swimmer but couldn’t get out of the water and thus got F’s in everything else. The dog didn’t join the school, stopped paying taxes, and kept fighting with the administration to include barking as part of the curriculum. The rabbit got A’s in burrowing but tree climbing was a real problem. It kept falling and landing on its head, suffered brain damage, and soon couldn’t even burrow properly and got C’s in that too.
The mentally retarded eel, who did everything half as well, became the valedictorian of the class. The board was happy because everybody was getting a broad-based education. A true broad-based education prepares students for life, without losing their areas of specialization and competence.
