Read the following passage about endangered birds and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions from 23 to 30.

There are approximately 8,000 species of birds in the world today. However, only a few of these are widely recognized: sparrows, pigeons, eagles, parrots, and others. So, what about the lesser-known bird species? According to the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), nearly one-third of the world's bird species are now at risk of extinction, with some having populations of fewer than 1,000 individuals. Over the past century, about 150 bird species have gone extinct.

Sadly, when we lose a bird species, we lose a piece of nature's balance. Birds play crucial roles in various ecosystems, such as controlling insect populations, pollinating plants, and dispersing seeds. One example is the honeycreeper, a brightly colored bird native to Hawaii. Honeycreepers are essential pollinators for certain tropical flowers, and their unique feeding habits demonstrate a close relationship with their habitat.

Efforts are being made to save endangered bird species. In the Galapagos-Islands, conservation programs focus on protecting habitats critical to birds like the Galapagos penguin. In India, special reserves help protect endangered species like the Great Indian Bustard.

Read the following passage about dependence on technology and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions from 31 to 40.
 

DEPENDENCE ON TECHNOLOGY: TIME FOR CHANGE!

(I) Los Angeles dancer, Brian Perez, was eating out with his friends one evening when suddenly everyone went quiet. (II) To his horror, he saw that the reason for this was that people were checking their phones. (III) What if they all put their gadgets in a pile in the middle of the table until they had finished the meal? (IV) If anyone picked up their phone, that person would have to pay the whole bill. And so, it is said, the game of ‘phone stacking’ was born.

The necessity for action like this highlights a major problem in today’s society: our inability to disconnect from technology. But while Brian’s idea deals with the obsession in a social context, measures also need to be taken at home. Some people drop their smartphones into a box the moment they arrive home, which gives them the chance to interact with the people they live with. The fact that the phone cannot be heard – it is on silent – not seen the flashing lights are hidden by the box – means that they are no longer tempte– to use it

A less drastic s–lution is to ban electronic devices at certain times of day when the whole family is likely to be together, for example at meal times. This can be hard for everyone, from teenagers desperate to text friends to parents unable to switch off from work. On a normal day, however, dinner takes less than an hour, and the benefits of exchanging opinions and anecdotes with the rest of the family certainly makes up for the time spent offline.
