Read the following passage and answer the questions given after it.

Hunting has been a major cause of the decline in elephant populations. Elephants became prized trophies for big-game hunters after Europeans arrived in Africa. More recently, and more devastatingly, hunters have slaughtered elephants for their ivory tusks. The ivory trade became a serious threat to elephants in the 1970s.

A sudden oil shortage caused the world economy to collapse, and ivory became more valuable than gold. In fact, ivory has been called "white gold" because it is beautiful, easily carved, durable, and pleasing to the touch. Most of the world's ivory is carved in Japan. Hong Kong, and other Asian countries, where skilled carvers depend on a supply of ivory for their livelihoods.

Hunting elephants is no longer legal in many African countries, but poaching was widespread until very recently. For many the high price of ivory, about $100 a pound in the 1980s, was too tempting to resist. Local people often had few other ways to make a living, and subsistence farmers or herders could make more by selling the tusks of one elephant than they could make in a dozen years of farming or herding.

As the price of ivory soared, poachers became more organized, using automatic weapons, motorized vehicles, and airplanes to chase and kill thousands of elephants. To governments and revolutionaries mired in civil wars and strapped for cash, poaching ivory became a way to pay for more firearms and supplies.

Poaching has caused the collapse of elephants social structure as well as decimating their numbers. Poachers target the biggest elephants because their tusks are larger. They often kill all the adults in the group, leaving young elephants without any adults to teach them migration routes. dry-season water sources, and other learned behavior. Many of Africa's remaining elephant groups are leaderless sub-adults and juveniles.

Read the following passage and answer the questions given after it.

Climate change is a long-term shift in global or regional climate patterns. Often climate change refers specifically to the rise in global temperatures from the mid 20th century to the present.

Earth's climate has changed many times. For example, fossils from the Cretaceous period (144 to 65 million years ago) show that Earth was much warmer than it is today. Fossilized plants and animals that normally live in warm environments have been found at much higher latitudes than they could survive at today. For instance, breadfruit trees, now found on tropical islands, grew as far north as Greenland.

at least Earth has also experienced several major ice ages four in the past 500,000 years. During these periods, Earth's temperature decreased, causing an expansion of ice sheets and glaciers. The most recent Ice Age began about 2 million years ago and peaked about 20,000 years ago. The ice caps began retreating 18,000 years ago. They have not disappeared completely, however. Their presence in Antarctica and Greenland suggests the Earth is still in a sort of ice age. Many scientists believe we are in an interglacial period, when warmer temperatures have caused the ice caps to recede. Many centuries from now, the glaciers may advance again.

Climatologists look for evidence of past climate change in many different places. Like clumsy criminals, glaciers leave many clues behind them. They scratch and scour rocks as they move. They deposit sediment known as glacial till. This sediment sometimes forms mounds or ridges called moraines. Glaciers also form elongated oval hills known as drumlins. All of these geographic features on land that currently has no glaciers suggest that glaciers were once there.

Scientists also have chemical evidence of ice ages from sediments and sedimentary rocks. Some rocks only form from glacial material. Their presence under the ocean or on land also tells scientists that glaciers were once present in

भारतवर्ष की सबसे बड़ी विशेषता यहाँ व्याप्त विविधता में एकता है और यह विविधता समाज के हर स्तर पर देखी जाती है। इन्हीं विशेषताओं में ही भाषायी विविधता का भी अपना एक अलग ही स्वरुप है। यहाँ जितनी विविधता भाषाओं की है उतनी ही विविधता मानवीय संस्कृतियों की भी है। परंतु इन सबके बीच सबसे खास बात यह है कि अलग-अलग राज्यों और विभिन्न संस्कृतियों का प्रतिनिधित्व करती सभी अलग-अलग भाषाओं को आपस में जोड़ने का काम करती है हिन्दी भाषा। भारत की कई भाषाओं के मध्य राजभाषा, संपर्क भाषा और राष्ट्रभाषा के रूप में अपना स्थान बनाने वाली एक मात्र भाषा हिन्दी ही है। भाषा मनुष्य की मानसिक और बौद्धिक स्वतन्त्रता की सूचक होती है साथ ही भाषा से उत्पन्न होने वाली शक्ति हमारी संस्कृति की गतिशीलता की पहचान का परिणाम भी है।
