 Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions 7 to 12.
The phrase What is it like ? stands for a fundamental thought process. How
does one go about observing and reporting on things and events that occupy segments
of earth space ? Of all the infinite variety of phenomena on the face of the earth, how does
one decide what phenomena to observe ? There is no such thing as a complete description
of the earth or any part of it, for every microscopic point on the earths surface differs from
every other such point. Experience shows that the things observed are already familiar,
because they are like phenomena that occur at home or because they resemble the abstract
images and models developed in the human mind.
How are abstract images formed ? Humans alone among the animals possess
language; their words symbolize not only specific things but also mental images of classes
of things. People can remember what they have seen or experienced because they attach a
word symbol to them.
During the long record of our efforts to gain more and more knowledge about the
face of the earth as the human habitat, there has been a continuing interplay between things
and events. The direct observation through the senses is described as a percept; the mental
image is described as a concept. Percepts are what some people describe as reality, in
contrast to mental images, which are theoretical, implying that they are not real.
The relation of Percept to Concept is not as simple as the definition implies. It is now
quite clear that people of different cultures or even individuals in the same culture develop
different mental images of reality and what they perceive is a reflection of these
preconceptions. The direct observation of things and events on the face of the earth is so
clearly a function of the mental images of the mind of the observer that the whole idea of
reality must be reconsidered.
Concepts determine what the observer perceives, yet concepts are derived from the
generalizations of previous percepts. What happens is that the educated observer is taught
to accept a set of concepts and then sharpens or changes these concepts during a
professional career. In any one field of scholarship, professional opinion at one time
determines what concepts and procedures are acceptable, and these form a kind of model of
scholarly behaviour.
7. The problem raised in the passage reflects on
(A) thought process (B) human behaviour
(C) cultural perceptions (D) professional opinion
8. According to the passage, human beings have mostly in mind
(A) Observation of things (B) Preparation of mental images
(C) Expression through language (D) To gain knowledge
9. Concept means
(A) A mental image (B) A reality
(C) An idea expressed in language form (D) All the above
10. The relation of Percept to Concept is
(A) Positive (B) Negative
(C) Reflective (D) Absolute
11. In the passage, the earth is taken as
(A) The Globe (B) The Human Habitat
(C) A Celestial Body (D) A Planet
12. Percept means
(A) Direct observation through the senses (B) A conceived idea
(C) Ends of a spectrum (D) An abstract image

 [ For Blind Students Only ]
Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions 35 to 40.
During the thousands of years since the earliest records of the history of ideas,
learned people have accounted for the order they perceived in the universe in different
ways. The accounts range along a continuum from arbitrary rule by humanlike deities,
through rule by a deity subject to law, through various kinds of cause and effect
relations, to abstract mathematical law. These do not represent successive stages of
increasing sophistication, for all of them can be found in the thinking of ancient Greek
philosophers as well as in the contemporary world. Rule by a deity or deities is a very
ancient concept. In Sumeria, the religious leaders saw a world ruled by living beings
like humans but endowed with superhuman powers and with immortality. Each of these
beings was responsible for the control and maintenance of some features of the world,
such as the flow of rivers, the rise and fall of the tides, the shift of the winds, the
productivity of the harvest and the abundance of game animals. The deities competed
with one another and reacted arbitrarily and often vindictively to human acts. Other
cultures explained matters in terms of a single deity whose acts were frequently subject
to the bestowal of human favour. A very different way of accounting for an ordered
universe is the recognition of cause and effect sequences that take place in accordance
with general law. In some cases the notion of a single deity is retained, but the acts of
this deity are not arbitrary. Some would say that this God is the law. The idea of law
itself is an anthropomorphism that is, a reflection of human experience. Those who
break divine laws are subject to punishment, but those who act in harmony with the law
are rewarded. Of course, there is a great difference between human law and scientific
law : human law governs the behaviour of things, and events are subject to law, but
scientific law is a general description of events.
35. Order in the universe is perceived through various kinds of relations between
(A) men and matters (B) cause and effect
(C) law and punishment (D) sophistication and crudity
36. In Sumeria, religious leaders saw the world as ruled by human beings endowed with
(A) rational thinking (B) religious powers
(C) superhuman powers (D) intuitive powers
37. Law as a reflection of human experience is
(A) punishment or reward for breaking or following it.
(B) that which governs human behaviour.
(C) a general description of events.
(D) that governs natural events.
38. According to the author, various accounts of the world are not evolutionary because
(A) they are found in the thinking of ancient Greek philosophers
(B) ideas do not grow
(C) they have no relation to abstract mathematical law
(D) they are neither ancient nor contemporary
39. The Sumerian view of the deities is that
(A) they are governed by a law
(B) they are competing with one another
(C) they are compassionate to human beings
(D) they are governed by a single deity
40. What is the other way of understanding the world which is different from that of the
Sumerians ?
(A) World governed by cause and effect sequences.
(B) World governed by a single deity.
(C) World is governed by a deity whose will is not arbitrary.
(D) World is governed by law.
