Read the passage and answer the question. Before the Panama Canal opened in 1914, a ship sailing from New York to San Francisco had to travel around the southern tip of South America, a voyage of more than 20,000 kilometres. The canal cut this distance by more than half. Because the land in the middle of Panama is higher than the sea, the canal uses a series of locks: water-filled chambers that raise ships up to an artificial lake and then lower them down to the other ocean. Each crossing uses a large amount of fresh water from the lake, so long dry seasons can limit the number of ships that pass through. Which journey does the passage use to show how the canal shortened sea travel?
सही उत्तर: क) New York to San Francisco
The passage compares the route 'from New York to San Francisco' before and after the canal.

Why can long dry seasons reduce the number of ships using the canal?
सही उत्तर: क) The locks depend on fresh water from a lake.
'Each crossing uses a large amount of fresh water from the lake', so less rain means fewer crossings.

Read the passage and answer the question. In AD 79, the volcano Mount Vesuvius erupted and buried the Roman town of Pompeii under several metres of ash and stone. Although the disaster killed many people, it also preserved the town remarkably well.

Because daily life stopped so suddenly, Pompeii gives historians a rare picture of how ordinary Romans lived. Why is Pompeii so valuable to historians?
सही उत्तर: क) It shows ordinary Roman life as it was at one moment.
'Because daily life stopped so suddenly, Pompeii gives historians a rare picture of how ordinary Romans lived.'

Read the passage and answer the question. In 1974, farmers digging a well near the city of Xi'an in China found pieces of a clay figure. Archaeologists soon discovered that they had found part of a huge underground army: thousands of life-sized terracotta soldiers, along with horses and chariots, buried more than 2,000 years ago to guard the tomb of China's first emperor, Qin Shi Huang. The soldiers differ in height, uniform and hairstyle, and many experts believe that no two faces are exactly alike. What does the phrase 'many experts believe' suggest about the claim that no two faces are alike?
सही उत्तर: ग) It is widely accepted but not completely proven.
'Many experts believe' shows a common view among specialists, not a proven fact.
