SECTION 'A'
(Reading)
Read the following
passage carefully and answer the questions given below:
2/15
The Gita is not an
aphoristic work; it is a great religious po deeper you dive into it, the richer
the meanings you get It being for the people at large there is pleasing
repetition. With every age the important word will carry new and expanding
meanings. But its central teaching will never vary. The seeker is at liberty to
extract from this treasure any meanings he likes so as to enable him to enforce
in his life the central teaching.
Nor is the Gita a
collection of do's and don'ts. What is lawful for one may be unlawful for
another. What may be permissible at one time, or in one place, may not be so at
another time, and in another place. Desire for fruit is the only universal
prohibition. Desire lessness is obligatory.
The Gita has sung the
praises of knowledge, but it is beyond the mere intellect. It is essentially
addressed to the heart and capable of being understood by the heart. Therefore
the Gita is not for those who have no faith. The author makes Krishna say:
"Do not entrust this treasure to him who is without sacrifice, without
devotion without the desire for this teaching and who denies Me. On the other
hand those who will give this precious treasure to My devotees will by the fact
of this service assuredly reach Me. And those who, being free from malice, will
with faith absorb this teaching, shall, having attained freedom, live where
people of true merit go after death."

2 Read the following
passage carefully and answer the questions given below:
Coal is a natural
resource, which constitutes approximately 85 percent of the total fossil fuel
reserves in the world. The coal deposits of India occur in two distinct
stratigraphic horizons Gondwana and its territories. Gondwana coal contributes
about 99% of the country's coal resources. These mines are located peninsular
India, in the South Eastern quadrant, bound by the 78°E longitude and the 24°N
latitude, thus, leaving a major part of the country devoid of any coal
deposits. The major Gondwana coalfields are represented by isolated basins,
which occur along prominent present day, rivers such as Damodar, Koel, Sone,
Mahanadi, pench and Godavari. The relatively minor resource of tertiary coal is
located on the either extremities of peninsular India.
Coal can be broadly
classified in two categories- coking and non-coking. Coking coal are that which
has cacking property and which is used in metallurgical industries. Again
depending on the quality of coke produced by this coal, it is subdivided into
prime coking coal, medium coking coal, and semi-coking coal. similarly,
non-coking coal is also categorised in seven grades, (Grade A to G), depending
on its caloric value.

(i) Make notes on the
above passage in points.
