3861. Read the passage and answer the question. The Eastgate Centre, an office and shopping building in Harare, Zimbabwe, has no conventional air-conditioning system. Its architect, Mick Pearce, studied how termites keep their mounds at a steady temperature by allowing air to flow through tunnels. The building copies this idea: cool night air is drawn in and stored in its thick walls and floors, and warm air escapes through chimneys. As a result, it uses much less energy than similar buildings. Which of the following best describes the passage?

      कA history of air-conditioning खA study of how termites find food गA comparison of buildings in Zimbabwe and elsewhere घAn example of design inspired by nature

3862. Read the passage and answer the question. The Titanic was described as almost unsinkable when it left Southampton for New York in April 1912. On its first voyage it struck an iceberg in the North Atlantic and sank in less than three hours. More than 1,500 people died, partly because the ship carried lifeboats for only about half of the people on board. After the disaster, new international rules required ships to carry enough lifeboats for everyone. What is the main point of the last sentence?

      कMost passengers survived in lifeboats. खShips stopped sailing across the North Atlantic. गThe disaster led to improved safety rules at sea. घThe Titanic had more lifeboats than other ships.

3863. Read the passage and answer the question. When the Eiffel Tower was built for the Paris World's Fair of 1889, many leading artists and writers signed a letter calling it useless and ugly. The tower was given a permit to stand for only twenty years. It survived partly because it proved valuable as a tall antenna for radio communication. Today it is one of the most visited monuments in the world. According to the passage, what helped save the Eiffel Tower from being taken down?

      कA letter from famous artists खIts popularity with tourists in 1889 गA new permit for another World's Fair घIts usefulness for radio communication

3864. Read the passage and answer the question. In 1968, Spencer Silver, a chemist at the company 3M, was trying to develop a very strong glue. Instead, he produced a weak adhesive that stuck lightly to surfaces and could be peeled off without leaving a mark. For years nobody found a use for it. Then, in 1974, his colleague Art Fry, who was tired of his paper bookmarks falling out of his hymn book, tried coating them with Silver's adhesive. The idea eventually became the sticky note. Why was Silver's adhesive at first considered a failure?

      कIt left marks on paper. खIt was too expensive to produce. गIt only stuck to bookmarks. घIt was much weaker than he had intended.
