QUESTIONS BASED ON HIGHER ORDER THINKING SKILLS

SECTION A

1. RIGHT MENTAL ATTITUDE

Thinking the right, positive way makes for success, happiness and a satisfying life. Negative way leads to failure, unhappiness and dissatisfaction. Many develop the way of thinking that others are watching them with a sharp and critical eye and disapproving them. It makes them shrink mentally and emotionally. The potential remains unused. Living to win others’ approval makes for a major personality defect. The fact is that others have neither the time nor the inclination to examine us as we think. They are too busy living their own life. Anyway, why fuss about them? Unsuccessful people are under self- created pressure. They say, ”What will others say?” ”What’s their thinking about me?” Another form of wrong attitude is, “I must act as Mr. S does.” “If I am not like him, I am a failure.” When you are pre- occupied by such thoughts, you are trying to become someone else. You become a pretender, losing all your ownness. You become frustrated and a failure. Many greenhorn writers, for example, instead of developing their own talent, ape a celebrity and end up with a pile of rejection slips. Then give up. Many greet troubles, which make their life harsher. They mar it because it makes them uneasy and distressed. Practical, positive, constructive thoughts bring the best out of you without distortion. Do what can be done about a setback without brooding over the morbid and miry side of it. Heed facts without pushing them under the carpet. Be rational. Sentimentalism besets and befogs the mind. Self-pity has never converted failure into success. The do-it yourself man learns to accept disappointments. He gets more out of life. He respects his own efforts and recognizes their values. One who learns from his mistakes, makes a full man. He emerges a winner in the long run. One who ignores mistakes, emerges a whiner.A whiner, when trouble or defeat comes his way, blames somebody else: bad luck, circumstances, work conditions, hostile environment or some other influence. He never thinks of heart-searching and self-analysis to get to the root of his failure. He does not discover his own faults. Self-analysis could be of tremendous help to him, and bring about the needed transformation. Failure is success inside turned outside.

K suffers from a sense of inferiority. He is very often in a state of misery. Consequently, he is full of self-pity. Life has, for him, become a nightmare. Failure is his fate, in his own words.It works wonders when you recognize faults which should be corrected. This attitude brings a sense of satisfaction.

It also builds self confidence and character, develops personality, mental toughness which enhances one’s ability to face life courageously. Your success depends on your own attitude more than any other factor.

On the basis of your reading the passage answer the following questions.

(a) Many people shrink mentally and emotionally and their potential remains unused. Explain what affects their minds.

(b) “Unsuccessful people are under self created pressure.” Which pressure leads such people to be unsuccessful?

(d) When a ‘whiner’ is unsuccessful in his aim/object, he reacts and blames. How does he explain his failure

The following factors bring out of you the best without distortion.

a) ______________

b) _______________

c) _______________

(i) To get to the root of failure one must think of ____________________and ____________________.

(iii) Complete the following blanks with the suitable antonyms from the passage.

a) Negative thinking leads to ________________.

b) Many think that others are disappointing them. This _____________ constitutes a major personality defect.

c) Self pity cannot change a failure into ________________.

d) Our thinking may shrink or ________________ our _________________ ability to face life.

2. WILDLIFE CONSERVATION

Wildlife is a collective term that includes animals, bees, butterflies, crustacean, fish, moths, aquatic and land vegetation which forms a part of any habitat. Wildlife is a national resource that maintains ecological balance and is beneficial for economic, recreational and aesthetic purposes. With the expansion of agricultural and industrial activities the number of wild animals has gradually become less. Some of the species become extinct and others are on the verge of being so. Mass scale killing of wild animals for their meat, bones, fur, hair, skins has depleted their numbers. Therefore, the need for wildlife conservation has now become a necessity.

Pollution, climate change, deforestation, industrialization and population explosion have destroyed the natural habitat of wildlife. Along with illegal hunting, habitat reduction and its degradation has threatened the biodiversity in the industrial world.

Certain regions that are very rich in species are known as hot spots.

Out of 25 hot spots of the world, two (eastern Himalayas and Western Ghats) are found in India, and these extend into the neighboring countries also. Important threats leading to extinction of species and consequent loss of biodiversity are as follows:

* Destruction of habitat

* llegal poaching in wildlife

* Over-exploitation

* Pollution

* Other threats

On the basis of degree of threat, following three categories have been identified:

a. Endangered Species: These are those species whose number has been reduced to a critical level. So these may become extinct if the same factors continue to operate.

(b)Vulnerable Species: Populations of these species are still abundant but their home range has been adversely affected, so these may become endangered if the same factors continue.

(c) Rare Species: These are those threatened species, which are very less in number and are usually confined in a specific area.

(d)Endemic Species: The organisms or species confined to a definite region for their distribution are called endemic species. This definite region may be a continent or a country, a province or even a small freshwater pool. In India about five thousand plant species are endemic.

Read the passage and answer the following questions.

(1) Ecological balance is important to sustain nature and life. How wildlife, that is, a national resource maintains ecological balance?

(2) Wildlife is gradually depleting and some species are becoming extinct. What are the factors which are affecting their number?

(3) How is biodiversity being threatened in industrial areas?

(4) There are certain regions which are rich in wildlife. What are these regions called and where are they?

(5) How many categories of wildlife are identified? What is the basis of their identification?

Find the word/phrases having same meaning.

(b) Illegal killing of animals __________________

(d) To find out/locate __________________

3. GLOBAL WARMING STIRRING UP STORMS?

IPCC report has said it is likely that global warming would make cyclones more intense

David Adam

LONDON: Meteorologists are predicting a more active hurricane season than usual this year, but there is no way to know whether global warming has caused an individual event such as a hurricane , or whether it has made such storms worse. On the other hand, some scientists argue that storms such as Gustav are more likely in a warming world, because warmer seas make more powerful storms. If anything , the science has become fuzzier in the years after Hurricane Katrina, with studies suggesting that future storm strength could increase in places but decrease in others – studies seized on by both sides of the debate.

Last year’s report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) said it was “likely” that global warming would make future cyclones more intense. Studies of hurricane records suggest this trend can already be seen. Some scientists have linked an increasing number of hurricanes in the north Atlantic to global warming. Although, globally the number of tropical storms each year has hovered around 90 years over the past century, in the north Atlantic there has been a clear increase. From 1850-1990, the overall average of tropical storms in the north Atlantic was about five hurricanes. Since 1995, the 10-year average has risen, with the 1997-2006 average at about 14, including about eight hurricanes. The IPCC report said this was “more likely than not” down to global warming.

A number of factors prevent more definitive conclusions. It is difficult to use climate models to simulate the conditions that allow a hurricane to form. Although sea surface temperature is important, so are other variables, including the difference between the temperature of the sea and air, as well as the formation of high level winds that stop storms developing. It is also unclear how reliably historical records of hurricane strength can be compared, while storm activity in some regions seems to rise and fall in nature cycles over several decades.

On the basis of your reading of the passage complete the following sentences

1. Meteorologists have predicted . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

2. In a warming world storms . . . . . . . .as . . . . . . . . . . . .

4. PRESERVING GOOD WATER

An important call to protect the world’s fresh –water supplies has come from scientists, government leaders, and civil society representatives who met recently in Stockholm for World Water Week. As population and incomes grow concomitant consumption ,there is a sharp rise in the demand for water for direct use ,and as an input for food production .Many countries are also experiencing rising demand for water to grow biofuel crops.The global supply of fresh water ,which every individual needs at the rate 1,000 cubic metres per year to meet minimum drinking ,hygiene ,and subsistence requirements ,is under strain .Unpredictable monsoon patterns attributed to climate change are adding to the distress.The message to governments is that they must respond urgently with practical schemes or face escalating conflicts over water in the not-so-distant future .The priority must be to reduce water intensity in farming ,the biggest single user .Even a small but significant saving in irrigated agriculture can deliver more water for the people .That is clear from an International Water Management Institute forecast:without improved farm productivity ,including measures such as waterproofing of canal surfaces ,the volume of water lost due to evaporation annually could ,by mid-century ,be nearly double the present level of 7,130 cubic kilometers.

Conservation of water requires consumers to act wisely .Food contains a great deal of embedded water (a kilo of wheat needs 1,000 litres to produce ,according to data presented at the Stockholm conference) and discarding it as garbage wastes the precious resource .The conference heard distressing evidence of a large amount of food being thrown away every year ,mainly in the developed world .According to a policy brief released at the conference ,in the United States ,as much as 30 percent of the food produced ,valued at $48.3 billion ,is thrown away; that wastes an estimated 40 trillion litres of water ,enough to meet the needs of 500 million people .In developing countries ,a lot of produced perishes right on the farm ,in storage ,and during transport .Cumulatively ,this represents colossal burden of waste .The challenge before all countries is to translate the improved awareness into effective conservation policies .Some may choose to charge for excessive water use and also deploy technologies such as desalination to increase availability. But these represent the low-hanging fruit .A sustainable future will depend on creating strong watersheds for farming ,forming community tanks and lakes for rainwater harvesting ,and strictly enforcing rules that compel cities and towns to reuse grey water.

On the basis of your reading of the passage answer the following questions.

1. What important call was made at World Water Week in Stockholm?

2. What is individual’s approximate need of fresh water?

3. What should the government do to meet the fresh water requirement?

4. Which is the biggest single unit of water?

5. For what the consumers should act wisely?

6. What is a colossal burden of water?

7. How can the countries translate the improved awareness into effective conservation policies?
