1261. Read the passage and answer the question. Periodical cicadas of eastern North America spend most of their lives underground as young insects, feeding on the sap of tree roots. Depending on the species, they stay below ground for either 13 or 17 years. Then, in a single spring, millions emerge at almost the same time, climb trees, and fill the air with the loud calls of the males. One explanation for this strange timing is that predators such as birds cannot possibly eat so many insects at once, so most of the cicadas survive long enough to mate and lay eggs. Where do young periodical cicadas spend most of their lives?

      कIn the tops of trees खUnderground गIn rivers and lakes घInside birds' nests

1262. Read the passage and answer the question. In 1967, a bank in north London installed what is often described as the first cash machine. Customers did not use plastic cards; instead, they inserted special paper cheques that had been treated with a mildly radioactive substance, and then typed a personal number. The machine could pay out a maximum of ten pounds at a time. Some customers were nervous about it, and many bank staff feared that machines would replace them. In fact, in some countries the number of bank cashiers kept rising for decades after cash machines became common. What does the last sentence suggest?

      कCash machines were removed after a few years. खCustomers stopped using banks. गBanks stopped employing cashiers after 1967. घThe staff's fears were not immediately proved right.

1265. Read the passage and answer the question. Iodine is needed in very small amounts for the thyroid gland to work properly. People who do not get enough may develop a swelling in the neck called a goitre, and iodine deficiency in pregnant women can harm the development of the baby's brain. Because iodine is scarce in the soil of many mountain regions, people who eat only locally grown food are especially at risk. Adding small amounts of iodine to table salt has proved to be one of the cheapest and most effective ways of solving the problem, since almost everyone uses salt every day. What does the word 'deficiency' mean in this passage?

      कa lack of something needed खa method of treatment गan excess of something घa type of disease of the neck

1268. Read the passage and answer the question. Bar-headed geese spend the summer in Central Asia and the winter in South Asia, and many of them cross the Himalaya twice a year. They can fly over high mountain passes where the air contains less than half the oxygen found at sea level. Researchers have found that the birds' blood carries oxygen unusually efficiently, and that they breathe more deeply rather than simply faster. Surprisingly, studies tracking the geese show that they often follow valleys and climb only as high as they need to, rather than flying straight over the highest peaks. Why does the writer use the word 'Surprisingly' in the last sentence?

      कThe geese never cross the Himalaya. खThe valleys are higher than the peaks. गPeople might expect the geese to fly straight over the highest peaks. घResearchers had not tracked the geese before.
