3. Write reports on the following in about 200 words each :

(a) Corruption in politics (CAPF 2017)

(b) Environmental pollution (CAPF 2017)

4. Attempt a précis of the given passage in one-third of its length. Do not suggest a title.

Write, as far as possible, in your own words. The précis must be written only in the précis-

format given below:

During the launching of a satellite, the rocket must travel in exactly the right direction and at

exactly the right speed. Radio signals are automatically sent back to earth from the rocket. The-

se signals tell men on the ground how the rocket is travelling and help them to make sure that it

is going as it should. The signals go to special calculating machines called computers that work

very fast. The computers work out whether the rocket is travelling correctly. If it is not, they

calculate what correction is needed. Radio signals send the correction to the rocket and make it

automatically change its direction or speed as necessary.

Artificial satellites are used for many things. By sending them through the upper parts of the

atmosphere we can find out more about the atmosphere. The more air there is, the more slowly

the satellite will travel, until it falls to earth. By sending satellites round the earth at different

heights, we can find out how much air there is at each height.

We can find out more about the shape of the earth by means of satellites. If the earth is not per-

fectly round, its gravity will not be the same everywhere. Because the pull of the earth's gravity

Page 4: GENERAL STUDIES, ESSAY AND COMPREHENSIONpathfindersacademypune.com/downloads/ZRhD4kUuIq.pdf · (b) Cashless transactions : Scope and future prospects in India (CAPF 2017) (c) India

FATHFINDERS’ ACADEMY PUNE by Dr. Prashant Jagtap Sir. Asst. Commandant CISF

www.pathfindersacademypune.com

keeps the satellite in its orbit, any change in the gravity will change the orbit. By watching the

way a satellite travels, we can find out whether the earth's gravity changes anywhere. If it

does, we know that the shape of the earth is different at that place. In this way artificial satel-

lites have shown us that the poles of the earth are flattened,

and that the South Pole is flattened more than the North.

Satellites can give us information about the weather. By sending up satellites with television

cameras on board, we can get pictures of the clouds below. Each picture shows an area the

size of one or more whole countries. By looking at these pictures, we can see bad weather be-

fore it comes to us. By getting warning of hurricanes or typhoons in this way, people can get

ready to shelter from them. Weather satellites can also show us when rain will come. Men are

now trying to forecast weather all round the world with the help of satellites.

5. Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow :

If we look back at India's long history we find that our forefathers made wonderful progress

whenever they looked out on the world with clear and fearless eyes and kept the windows of their

minds open to give and to receive. And, in later periods, when they grew narrow in outlook and

shrank from outside influences, India suffered a set-back, politically and culturally. What a mag-

nificent inheritance we have, though we have abused it often enough. India has been and is a vital

nation, in spite of all the misery and suffering that she has experienced. That vitality in the realm

of constructive and creative effort spread to many parts of the Asian world and elsewhere and

brought splendid conquests in its train. Those conquests were not so much of the sword, but of

the mind and heart which bring healing and which endure when the men of the sword and their

work are forgotten. But that very vitality, if not rightly and creatively directed, may turn inward

and destroy and degrade.

Even during the brief span of our lives we have seen these two forces at play in India and the

world at large — the forces of constructive and creative effort and the forces of destruction.

Which will triumph in the end ? And on which side do we stand ? That is a vital question for each

one of us and, more especially, for those from whom the leaders of the nation will be drawn, and

on whom the burden of tomorrow will fall. We dare not sit on the fence and refuse to face the

issue. We dare not allow our minds to be befuddled by passion and hatred when clear thought and

effective action are necessary.

(i) What hurdled the progress of India ?

(ii) What is the uniqueness of the Indian vitality ?

(iii) Why are the men of the sword and their work forgotten?

(iv) Why are the conquests of India always remembered ?

(v) What is the vital question referred to at the end of the passage and what is your answer to that

question ?

4) Attempt a précis of the given passage in one-third of its length. Do not suggest a title.

Write, as far as possible, in your own words. The précis must be written only in the

précis-format given below:

During the launching of a satellite, the rocket must travel in exactly the right

direction and at exactly the right speed. Radio signals are automatically sent back to

earth from the rocket. These signals tell men on the ground how the rocket is travel-

ling and help them to make sure that it is going as it should. The signals go to spe-

cial calculating machines called computers that work very fast. The computers

work out whether the rocket is travelling correctly. If it is not, they calculate what

correction is needed. Radio signals send the correction to the rocket and make it

automatically change its direction or speed as necessary.

Artificial satellites are used for many things. By sending them through the upper

parts of the atmosphere we can find out more about the atmosphere. The more air

there is, the more slowly the satellite will travel, until it falls to earth. By sending

satellites round the earth at different heights, we can find out how much air there is

at each height.

We can find out more about the shape of the earth by means of satellites. If the

earth is not perfectly round, its gravity will not be the same everywhere. Because

the pull of the earth's gravity keeps the satellite in its orbit, any change in the gravi-

ty will change the orbit. By watching the way a satellite travels, we can find out

whether the earth's gravity changes anywhere. If it does, we know that the shape of

the earth is different at that place. In this way artificial satellites have shown us that

the poles of the earth are flattened,

and that the South Pole is flattened more than the North.

Satellites can give us information about the weather. By sending up satellites with

television cameras on board, we can get pictures of the clouds below. Each picture

shows an area the size of one or more whole countries. By looking at these pictures,

we can see bad weather before it comes to us. By getting warning of hurricanes or

typhoons in this way, people can get ready to shelter from them. Weather satellites

can also show us when rain will come. Men are now trying to forecast weather all

round the world with the help of satellites.

5. Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow :

If we look back at India's long history we find that our forefathers made wonderful

progress whenever they looked out on the world with clear and fearless eyes and

kept the windows of their minds open to give and to receive. And, in later periods,

when they grew narrow in outlook and shrank from outside influences, India suf-

fered a set-back, politically and culturally. What a magnificent inheritance we have,

though we have abused it often enough. India has been and is a vital nation, in spite

of all the misery and suffering that she has experienced. That vitality in the realm of

constructive and creative effort spread to many parts of the Asian world and else-

where and brought splendid conquests in its train. Those conquests were not so

much of the sword, but of the mind and heart which bring healing and which endure

when the men of the sword and their work are forgotten. But that very vitality, if not

rightly and creatively directed, may turn inward and destroy and degrade.

Even during the brief span of our lives we have seen these two forces at play in India

and the world at large — the forces of constructive and creative effort and the forces

of destruction. Which will triumph in the end ? And on which side do we stand ?

That is a vital question for each one of us and, more especially, for those from whom

the leaders of the nation will be drawn, and on whom the burden of tomorrow will

fall. We dare not sit on the fence and refuse to face the issue. We dare not allow our

minds to be befuddled by passion and hatred when clear thought and effective action

are necessary.

(i) What hurdled the progress of India ? (3)

(ii) What is the uniqueness of the Indian vitality ? (3)
