A.2 Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions that follow. (5)

Mirrors have been used since ages. It is said that Archimedes used huge mirrors to focus the heat of the sun’s rays on the enemy ships to burn them. The same principle is used in solar cookers where mirrors are used to reflect and focus the sun’s rays on to cooking containers. Astronomers use huge concave mirrors to focus starlight. The mirrors used in telescopes are polished by giving a thin coat of silver or aluminum to the glass. With the telescopes, astronomers can see the heavenly bodies but even without the telescopes one can see the moon. A full moon shining overhead is a beautiful sight. But it is also a puzzle because if the sun and the moon both give the same sunlight, then why is the moonlight more pleasant?

The reason is that the moon reflects very little sunlight, in fact, only seven percent of the light is receives. The earth reflects about half of the radiation that it receives from the sun. Imagine how bright the earth must be looking from the moon? One can even read a book on the moon in the earth light. However, you do not have to travel all the way to the moon to realize how strong the earthlight is. Observe the crescent moon soon after the new moon. The bright crescent is illuminated by the sun. The rest of the moon is illuminated by earthlight. In other words, the light reflected by the earth is falling on the moon. This is being reflected back to us and is strong enough to show the moon faintly. As the crescent increases in size, this effect disappears.

Fresh snow is the best reflector of sunlight in nature. The bright light reflected by it can dazzle and harm your eyes. Mountaineers, therefore, use dark glasses.

a) Archimedes used mirrors to focus the heat of the sun’s rays :

i) to bake some pots ii) to create a warm environment

iii) to burn enemy ships iv) to boil water

b) Mirrors used in telescopes are polished by giving the glass a thin coat of :

i) gold ii) silver and gold

iii) silver or aluminium iv) tin and white paint

c) The principle of focusing the sun’s rays is used in :

i) solar cookers ii) radio

iii) public address system iv) computers

d) The bright light reflected by fresh snow can :

i) harm your body ii) dazzle and harm your eyes

iii) harm and dazzle your heart iv) dazzle and harm your liver

e) How much of the radiation received from the sun does the earth reflect?

i) about half ii) about one-fourth

iii) all of it iv) about three-fourth

A.3 Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow : (10)

1. Without oil the modern world could not exist. Oil is needed for travel, because it powers our motor cars, buses, trains, aeroplanes and ships. Oil helps machines of all kinds to run easily. Oil also gives us other substances, such as artificial rubber, artificial materials for clothing, and new materials for making things. Yet till a hundred years ago no one used oil for any of these purpose. In fact, no one knew that much oil existed.

2. Men do not make oil; they find it. They look for oil in many ways. They begin by making a map of the land where they are searching. Then they use the map to help them in choosing a site to explore with more care. They start their work by examining the rock from under the surface and come to know whether oil is likely to be underneath the rock.

3. To find out how deeply the oil is buried they need to know how far under the surface the rock is. If everything seems hopeful the men now decide to drill down through the rock. In this way they will find out whether oil really does lie underneath it. Often this test-well, as it is called, is far away from any town and there is much work to do before any drilling starts. Houses and roads must be built for the people coming to drill the test-well. Then the big derrick that carries the drill must be put up. This derrick is a strong framework of steel about 45 metres high. The drill is raised and lowered from inside the derrick.

4. Drilling for oil often means making a well that goes very deep into the earth. Such deep wells have never been made until modern times. The rate of drilling depends upon the kind of rock being drilled: it can be as fast as 60 metres an hour. Drilling is usually done on dry land, but we can also drill the rock under lakes or seas by putting the derrick on a special platform above the water.

Read the above passage carefully & answer the questions that follow:

i) How is oil useful to machines? (2)

ii) How do men go about looking for oil? (2)

iii) Drilling for oil often means ___________. (1)

iv) The rate of drilling depends upon ___________.

v) Drilling is usually done on ___________. (1)

vi) To find out how deeply the oil is buried we need to ___________. (1)

vii) Find the words from the passage which mean :

a) make a hole (para 3)

b) a kind of crane with a movable pivoted arm. (para 3)
