Section-A
Read
the passage given below carefully and choose the correct options to answer the
questions.
In
recent years, climate change has emerged as one of the most pressing global
issues. Scientists agree that the Earth's temperature is rising due to the
increase in greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous
oxide. These gases trap heat in the atmosphere, leading to a phenomenon known
as global warming. The impacts of climate change are far-reaching. Rising sea
levels threaten coastal cities, extreme weather events such as floods and
droughts are becoming more common, and many species are struggling to survive
as their habitats change or disappear. In some regions, farmers are facing
reduced crop yields due to unpredictable rainfall patterns. Addressing climate
change requires a collective effort. Governments must implement policies to reduce
carbon emissions, invest in renewable energy sources like solar and wind power,
and protect forests that absorb carbon dioxide, Individuals, too, can
contribute by using energy efficiently, reducing waste, and adopting
sustainable lifestyles. The future of our planet depends on the choices we make
today. If action is delayed, the damage caused by climate change may become
irreversible, putting both the environment and human life at risk.

earth will face severe consequences like food scarcity, loss of biodiversity,
and rising sea levels. Governments across the world are promoting renewable
sources of energy such as solar and wind power to reduce dependence on fossil

Dear
Anshu,
Hope
you're doing great! I wanted to share with you about how I am preparing for our
upcoming Class 10 Board Examination. I have started it with full vigour and
intensity. I have made a study timetable to manage all the subjects
efficiently. Each day, I spend around two to three hours revising different
subjects. I focus on understanding concepts rather than just memorizing them. I
am giving special focus on Math and Science.
For
difficult topics, I solve extra practice questions and refer to our textbooks
and notes thoroughly. I'm also tackling past papers to understand the pattern
and practice. I get help from teachers for tricky topics. I also try to take
short breaks between study sessions to stay fresh and avoid stress.
I
hope with this approach I will perform well in the exams. How's your
preparation going? Let's exchange tips. It will help us both.
Looking
forward to your reply.
Yours
sincerely,

Ans.
Education is the answer to all social ills. Illiteracy and ignorance bring
nothing but poverty, suffering and misery. Bholi lacks confidence initially
because of her disabilities. She is silent, timid and weak in mind. Her
ugliness and stammer do not let her progress. She is afraid to speak.
Education
changes her life completely. It empowers her and opens a new world of hope for
her. Her teacher treats her with love and kindness. Her affection and support
help Bholi to have faith in herself. She studies and grows into a confident
woman. She knows her rights and she asserts them as well.
Her
mother does not think it necessary to take Bholi's consent for her marriage.
The groom is old and lame. Still he demands dowry. Her father is also ready to
pay him. It is the girl herself who raises her voice against this marriage. She
refuses to marry a man who demands dowry. She is firm and decides the course of
her life. Thus, education empowered Bholi to face challenges in society.

the street, gathering information about the bus route and town. She learned the
bus timings, fare, and distance by observing, calculating, and asking
questions.
Valli's
courage is evident in the story. She boldly planned her journey and boarded the
bus, facing the unknown. She confidently interacted with the conductor and
fellow passengers.
She
acted independently without any adult supervision. She planned and executed the
entire bus trip alone. She saved money for months, forgoing treats and toys to
fund her adventure. She managed her money and journey responsibly, avoiding
distractions and overspending.
In
essence, Valli is a character ahead of her age, using her curious mind and
courage to explore the unknown world independently.
