Vibrant salads, wholesome bites, vegan baking, all vegetarian!\u201d Thus proclaimed a billboard on a stand placed just outside The Lighthouse Cafe. Well, well, well, I thought to myself, another one of those places designed to attract tourists; can\u2019t be genuine, can it? I couldn\u2019t have been more wrong. I\u2019d embarked on a walking tour of Galway, a city facing the Atlantic, in the Republic of Ireland, and my guide was Billy Murray who told me at the outset that I would be the solitary walker \u2013 others had stayed away because of the dismal weather. The weather had indeed been unfriendly, with beating rain, thunder, poor visibility and of course, gray and cold, especially on the Wild Atlantic Way where I had braved the weather and carried on with a coach tour I\u2019d booked earlier, after having spent the previous day driving down to Galway from Dublin. But today the rains had stopped and the sky was clear but still gray and yet, I found the ambience rather romantic and full of promise. \u201cOf course, we\u2019ll go on that walking tour,\u201d I said to a surprised Billy who led me out of the Tourist Centre in downtown Galway and on to the rain-washed street. At the end of the rather comprehensive tour I asked Billy for advice \u2013 where should I eat my lunch? And he\u2019d recommended the Lighthouse Cafe near Lynch\u2019s Castle (now a bank) when I specified that I was vegetarian.
\nIt seems there are quite a few local residents who are vegetarian and more are exploring this choice, mainly because of health and environmental reasons. But the decor inside the restaurant suggested that the owner turned to this choice due to compassion. I remembered then that Billy did mention that Kerry Legh and her spouse, who run the place, practise Sahaj Marga meditation. The lotus flower was a dominant feature of the restaurant\u2019s interior. Be that as it may, my lunch turned out to be one of the best vegetarian ones I\u2019ve ever had anywhere in the world. When I\u2019d entered the restaurant, a large dog that answers to the name of \u2018Chieftain\u2019 was seated beside his owner, intently watching him eat, without begging even once. Maybe they too practise some kind of meditation, I figured.<\/p>\n

The Russian doping scandal continues to cast a long shadow over international sport as the 2018 Winter Olympics begin in Pyeong Chang, South Korea, on February 9. In December, the International Olympic Committee banned Russia from competing in the Games following investigation into an alleged state-sponsored doping programme at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia. The decision to ban Russia came after the IOC\u2019s Disciplinary Commission, headed by former president of the Swiss Confederation Samuel Schmid, confirmed \u201csystemic manipulation of the anti-doping rules and system in Russia\u201d. The IOC had stated, however, that clean Russian athletes would be allowed to compete as neutrals and last month invited 169 of them \u2013 each to be known as Olympic Athlete from Russia (OAR) \u2013 to participate in the Pyeong Chang Games. The announcement did not go down well outside Russia, even though the IOC declared that \u201cmore than 80%\u201d of those athletes had not competed in Sochi and had been carefully vetted. That the OAR will form one of the largest contingents at the Games, although there will be no place for the Russian flag and anthem, makes the \u2018ban\u2019 seem a bit of a farce. Further, Russian athletes could be allowed to march under their own flag at the closing ceremony if they comply with the IOC\u2019s conditions during the Games. There is a sense that the IOC is not able to punish a sporting superpower like Russia.<\/p>\n

Where was the Winter Olympic 2014 held?
\nOptions:
\n1) Pyeong Chang, South Korea
\n2) Sochi, Russia
\n3) Vancouver, Canada

Question: 324 – Read the passage carefully and select the best answer to each question out of the given four alternatives.<\/p>\n

Religious architecture forms a major portion of India\u2019s built heritage. These structures are not only unwritten documents of history, they are also stamps of the might of the rulers who built them and articulations of grand visions.
\nSecular and religious structures are products of their location \u2013 the material used to build them depended on what was available to the kings and workers at that time. They were also a reflection of the piety of the artisans and workers, for nothing else can explain the hard work that went into cutting through solid natural rock to carve out temples and spectacular sculptures. Rock-cut architecture never fails to awe me with all its majesty, precision, and intricate detail.
\nThe earliest rock-cut architecture is from the Mauryan dynasty, but the Ajanta caves, which I had visited a few decades ago and which left me awestruck, are among the earliest rock-cut temples.
\nThe Udayagiri caves, in Vidisha, Madhya Pradesh, are not as popular but they are worth a visit, for they contain some of the oldest Hindu temples and iconography. They were built during the Gupta period (350-550 CE).
\nThese caves were not just an expression of religious piety but also a political statement. They lie on two low sandstone hills between the rivers Betwa and Beas. It is possible that when these caves were carved out, they fell directly on the Tropic of Cancer and thus the name translates to Mount of Sunrise. On the day of summer solstice, the sun would have been directly overhead, making this a place of worship.<\/p>\n

From what all materials the kings in the past used to build beautiful architectures?
\nOptions:
\n1) The material that was available to the kings and workers at that time.
\n2) Special kind of raw material was asked to be produced by the people by the king to build these architectures.
\n3) Most of the material was imported from outside India by the kings.
\n4) None of these

Religious architecture forms a major portion of India\u2019s built heritage. These structures are not only unwritten documents of history, they are also stamps of the might of the rulers who built them and articulations of grand visions.
\nSecular and religious structures are products of their location \u2013 the material used to build them depended on what was available to the kings and workers at that time. They were also a reflection of the piety of the artisans and workers, for nothing else can explain the hard work that went into cutting through solid natural rock to carve out temples and spectacular sculptures. Rock-cut architecture never fails to awe me with all its majesty, precision, and intricate detail.
\nThe earliest rock-cut architecture is from the Mauryan dynasty, but the Ajanta caves, which I had visited a few decades ago and which left me awestruck, are among the earliest rock-cut temples.
\nThe Udayagiri caves, in Vidisha, Madhya Pradesh, are not as popular but they are worth a visit, for they contain some of the oldest Hindu temples and iconography. They were built during the Gupta period (350-550 CE).
\nThese caves were not just an expression of religious piety but also a political statement. They lie on two low sandstone hills between the rivers Betwa and Beas. It is possible that when these caves were carved out, they fell directly on the Tropic of Cancer and thus the name translates to Mount of Sunrise. On the day of summer solstice, the sun would have been directly overhead, making this a place of worship.<\/p>\n

What qualities of the architecture made the author to be awestruck while seeing them?
\nOptions:
\n1) Its majesty
\n2) Its precision
\n3) Its intricate detail
\n4) All of these
\nCorrect Answer: All of these<\/p>\n

Question: 329 – Read the passage carefully and select the best answer to each question out of the given four alternatives.<\/p>\n

Malnutrition affects millions of people worldwide and is responsible for one-fifth of deaths in children under the age of five. Children can also experience impaired cognitive development and stunted growth.
\nAccording to Finlay and UBC PhD student Eric Brown, malnutrition can be difficult to treat because it affects the good bacteria that live in the gut. People suffering from malnutrition often show signs of a disease known as environmental enteropathy, which is an inflammatory disorder of the small intestine and is likely caused by ingesting pathogenic fecal bacteria early in life from a contaminated environment. This shifts the balance of the original healthy bacteria in the gut and leads to poor absorption of nutrients.
\nThe study, published in Nature Communications, explains how the research team developed a mouse model to reproduce the symptoms of environmental enteropathy and malnourishment.
\n\u201cWe were able to see how a malnourished diet has a strong, measurable impact on the microbes in the small intestine,\u201d said Brown. \u201cThis new model gives us the opportunity to examine the impact of malnutrition on gut microbiology and assess the role of infections.\u201d
\nPathogenic bacterial infections like salmonella and E. coli are huge problems in developing countries because they are much more harmful to people suffering from malnutrition, leading to chronic diarrhea and inflammation.
\n\u201cTreatments and vaccines created in developed nations and tested on healthy people often don’t work in malnourished populations,\u201d said Finlay, distinguished professor at UBC’s Peter Wall Institute for Advanced Studies. \u201cPeople suffering from malnutrition respond differently.\u201d
\nWith an animal model, Finlay said researchers will be better able to test treatments and understand how malnutrition impacts a child’s development.<\/p>\n

Why malnutrition is difficult to be treated?
\nOptions:
\n1) As it is a communicable disease.
\n2) No vaccine is available for it.
\n3) People don\u2019t consider malnutrition a serious problem at all.
\n4) As it affects the good bacteria in the gut.
\nCorrect Answer: As it affects the good bacteria in the gut.<\/p>\n

Question: 344 – Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer to each question out of the four alternatives.<\/p>\n

The elusive and charismatic snow leopard has lost its endangered status in the Red List of the International Union for Conservation of Nature, causing genuine worry among wildlife biologists, who believe this sends out the wrong signal to those working to protect it. If the argument for a downgrade to vulnerable status from endangered is that conservation actions have reduced the threat to the cat, there is an equally persuasive response on how little scientists know about its population health, given its remote habitat in the alpine zones of the Himalayas and trans-Himalayas. As a major range country, India has worked to protect these animals, and even launched a programme on the lines of Project Tiger for its conservation, covering 128,757 sq. km of habitat in Jammu and Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Sikkim and Arunachal Pradesh. There is also an upcoming international collaborative effort, the Global Snow Leopard and Ecosystem Protection Program, involving the countries that make up the range of this graceful animal. It is vital that this momentum should not be lost merely on account of the technicality that the estimated numbers have crossed the threshold for an ‘endangered’ classification, which is 2,500. If anything, studies on its vulnerability have to be intensified, and the task of monitoring its entire habitat of high mountains speeded up.<\/p>\n

Which countries will be involved in the collaboration to protect the snow leopard?
\nOptions:
\n1) Member countries of International Union for Conservation of Nature
\n2) Countries which are financing the project to conserve the snow leopard
\n3) Same countries which participated in Project Tiger
\n4) Countries where the snow leopard is found

As a major range country, India has worked to protect these animals, and even launched a programme on the lines of Project Tiger for its conservation, covering 128,757 sq. km of habitat in Jammu and Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Sikkim and Arunachal Pradesh. There is also an upcoming international collaborative effort, the Global Snow Leopard and Ecosystem Protection Program, involving the countries that make up the range of this graceful animal. It is vital that this momentum should not be lost merely on account of the technicality that the estimated numbers have crossed the threshold for an ‘endangered’ classification, which is 2,500. If anything, studies on its vulnerability have to be intensified, and the task of monitoring its entire habitat of high mountains speeded up.<\/p>\n

On what factor is the classification of a species decided?
\nOptions:
\n1) How critical that species is in the food web
\n2) Its population
\n3) Its habitat
\n4) On expert opinion
\nCorrect Answer: Its population<\/p>\n

Question: 349 – Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer to each question out of the four alternatives.<\/p>\n

As the 23rd conference of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change in Bonn shifts into high gear, developing countries including India are focussing on the imperatives of ensuring adequate financing for mitigation and adaptation. They are moving ahead with specific instruments for loss and damage they suffer due to destructive climate-linked events. India’s progress in reducing the intensity of its greenhouse gas emissions per unit of GDP by 20-25% from 2005 levels by 2020, based on the commitment made in Copenhagen in 2009, has been positive. Early studies also suggest that it is on track to achieve the national pledge under the 2015 Paris Agreement for a 33-35% cut in emissions intensity per unit of growth from the same base year (2015) by 2030, and thus heed the 2\u00b0C global warming goal. Since this performance is predicated on a growth rate of just over 7%, and the parallel target for 40% share of renewable energy by that year (2030), the national road map is clear. What is not, however, is the impact of extreme weather events such as droughts and floods that would have a bearing on economic growth. It is in this context that the rich countries must give up their rigid approach towards the demands of low and middle income countries, and come to an early resolution on the question of financing of mitigation, adaptation and compensation. Of course, India could further raise its ambition in the use of green technologies and emissions cuts, which would give it the mantle of global climate leadership.<\/p>\n

The rich and the poor countries have not yet agreed on which issue?
\nOptions:
\n1) The time frame by which each country should achieve their climate goals
\n2) The amount of acceptable rise in global temperature
\n3) How to fund the costs for mitigation, adaptation and compensation
\n4) The share of renewables in energy generation
\nCorrect Answer: How to fund the costs for mitigation, adaptation and compensation<\/p>\n
