Q11. Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow:

As their name suggests, desert locusts normally live and breed in semi-arid/desert regions. For

laying eggs, they require bare ground, which is rarely found in areas with dense vegetation. So,

they are more likely to breed in Rajasthan than in the Indo-Gangetic plains or Godavari and

Cauvery delta.

While green vegetation is good for hopper development – the stage between the nymph that

has hatched and before its turning into a winged adult moth – such cover is not widespread

enough in deserts to allow growth of large locust populations.Locusts are not dangerous if they

are individual hoppers/moths or small isolated groups of insects, in what is called the “solitary

phase”. It is when their population grows to large numbers – the resultant crowding induces

behavioural changes and transformation from the “solitary” to “gregarious” phase – that they

start forming swarms. A single swarm contains up to 40-80 million adults in one square km and

these can travel up to 150 km in one day.

It appears that such conditions have been there since the start of this year. The main locust

breeding areas in the Horn of Africa, and Pakistan recorded widespread rains in March-April.

A proactive exercise of control, through aerial spraying of ultra-low volume of concentrated

insecticides in all potential breeding sites, is required, along with continuous monitoring of the

crops during the ensuing kharif season.

i. Choose the correct option:

A. Locusts are:

1. a collection of certain speciesof short-horned grasshoppers.

2. a collection of birds.

B. For laying eggs, they require:

1.a bare garden

2.a bare ground

ii. How can we control it?

iii.Name the main breeding areas of Locusts in the world.

Q12. Did you know?

i. Earthquakes happen when two large pieces of the Earth's crust suddenly slip. This causes

shock waves to shake the surface of the Earth in the form of an earthquake.

ii. Earthquakes usually occur on the edges of large sections of the Earth's crust

iii. The largest earthquake ever recorded in the world was in Chile in 1960. It measured a 9.6 on

the Richter Scale. The largest in the US was a 9.2 magnitude in Alaska in 1964.

iv. They can cause huge waves in the ocean called Tsunamis.

A. Write any 4 Preventive measures at the time of Earthquake.

Q1- Read the following passage and answer the questions given below.

One of the most widely spread of bad habits is the use of Tobacco. Tobacco is now smoked or

chewed by men, women and even by children almost all over the world. It was brought to

Europe from America by Sir Walter Raleigh, four centuries ago and has spread everywhere. I

very much doubt whether there is any good in the habit even when tobacco is not used in

excess, and it is extremely difficult to get rid of the habit once it has formed.

Alcohol is taken in almost all cool and cold climates, and to a very much less extent in hot ones.

Thus, it is taken by those people who live in the mountains, but not nearly so much by those

who live in the plains of India. Alcohol is not necessary for anyway to anybody. Millions of

people are begging to do without it entirely. In India, it is not required by the people at all and

should be avoided by them. The regular use of alcohol even in small quantities tend to cause

harm in many ways to various organs of the body. It affects the liver, it weakens the mental
