631. Read the passage and answer the question. In the Mithila region, which spreads across southern Nepal and northern India, women have for generations decorated the walls and floors of their homes with bright paintings. The pictures show gods, animals, plants and scenes from daily life, often filled with fine lines and patterns. Traditionally they were made for festivals and weddings and were washed away or painted over afterwards. Since the late twentieth century, artists have also painted on paper and cloth, which has allowed the art to be sold and has given many women an income of their own. What change in Mithila art does the passage describe?

     कThe paintings stopped showing scenes from daily life. खBright colours were replaced by black and white. गMen replaced women as the main painters. घArtists began painting on paper and cloth that could be sold.

635. Read the passage and answer the question. Imagine a village pasture that everyone may use freely. Each herder gains by adding one more animal, while the cost of overgrazing is shared by all. If every herder thinks this way, the grass is soon destroyed and everyone loses. The ecologist Garrett Hardin called this situation 'the tragedy of the commons' in a 1968 essay. Critics later pointed out, however, that many real communities, including some community forest groups, have managed shared resources successfully for generations by agreeing on rules and watching that everyone follows them. What happens to the pasture if every herder thinks only of himself?

     कIt becomes more fertile. खIt is destroyed by overgrazing. गIt is divided equally. घIt is sold to an outsider.

What is the critics' main point?

     कCommunities can avoid the problem by agreeing on rules and making sure they are followed. खShared resources are always destroyed in the end. गHardin's example was about forests, not pastures. घPrivate ownership is the only solution.

638. Read the passage and answer the question. In a famous series of studies in the late 1960s and 1970s, psychologists offered young children a choice: they could eat one marshmallow immediately, or wait alone for about fifteen minutes and receive two. Years later, the researchers reported that children who had waited tended to do better at school. Many people concluded that self-control in early childhood predicts success. However, more recent research with larger and more varied groups found that the link was much weaker once family income and background were taken into account. In the last sentence, what does 'taken into account' mean?

     कconsidered खremoved from the study गcounted twice घignored
