1. THE FIRST WAR OF INDEPENDENCE - 1857

7. Two political causes responsible for the First War of Independence are:
(a) The introduction of the Doctrine of Lapse by Lord Dalhousie. This
doctrine imposed an unsentimental law of ‘no adoption policy’ for
rulers and in the absence of a natural heir the kingdom would fall into
the hands of the British.
(b) Introduction of the British policy of annexation of kingdoms under the
pretext of inefficient administration of the rulers [2014]

8. By 1857, the Mughal dynasty had already been rendered irrelevant by the
British political domination. The Mughal Emperor had become a mere titular
ruler of Delhi and the real power was held by the English East India Company
officials. After the 1857 rebellion was unsuccessful, Bahadur Shah Zafar
was deported to Yangon and the Mughal dynasty officially came to an end.
[2016]

9. Causes of the Revolt of 1857:


(a) Political Causes
Doctrine of Lapse: Lord Dalhousie successfully annexed many Indian
states to the English East India Company. This was done by using the
provisions of the Doctrine of Lapse. This led to extreme resentment
among the successors of rulers who died without a natural heir.
Policy of Expansion: The British authorities annexed many independent
Indian states on one pretext or the other. As a result, the Company
became the supreme ruling power in India and the rest of the ruling
class became mere puppets in their hands.
Annexation of Awadh: On 13 February 1856, Lord Dalhousie annexed
Awadh to the Company’s territories. This was done under the pretext of
alleged misrule by the Nawab Wajid Ali Shah. However, this led to a lot
of resentment among the ruling elite of Awadh and the Indian sepoys
working under the East India Company.
(b) Military Causes
Ill-treatment of Indian soldiers: The East India Company discriminated
against their Indian sepoys. They were poorly paid, ill-fed and badly
housed. They were forbidden from wearing any caste or sectarian marks,
beads or turbans. As a result, there was resentment among the Indian
troops.
General Service Enlistment Act: The General Service Enlistment Act of
1856 required Indian soldiers to be sent overseas for deployment if
required. However, traditionally, it was a taboo for Brahmins to cross
the seas. Hindus reacted negatively to this decision which was taken in
complete disregard to their religious beliefs.
Larger Proportion of Indians in the British Army: In 1856, the Company
army had 2,38,000 Indians and 45,322 British soldiers. Dalhousie had
recommended the recruitment of more British troops, but it was not
done at that point of time. As a result, it became easier for the rebelling
Indian troops to overwhelm their British colleagues.

(c) Economic Causes


Exploitation of Economic Resources: Under British rule, India was turned
into an exporter of raw materials such as raw cotton, raw silk, indigo,
tea and food grains. British goods were brought in either duty free or at
nominal duty rates. On the other hand, Indian products were subjected
to high import duties in England. Indian handmade goods were not in a
position to compete with machine-made British goods. This resulted in
the ruin of Indian industry, unemployment among artisans, reduction in
agricultural surplus and a steep increase in the price of raw materials.
Drain of Wealth: Till the Battle of Plassey (1757), the British brought
gold into India to buy Indian cotton and silk. However, after the conquest
of Bengal, the purchase was done with the surplus revenue from Bengal
profits acquired from duty-free inland trade. This unilateral transfer of
wealth from India to England is called the ‘Drain of Wealth’. The drain
included the salaries, incomes and savings of the Englishmen, British
expenditure in India on military goods, office establishments, interest on
debts and military expeditions.
Decay of Cottage Industries and Handicrafts: Because of the British policy
of preferential treatment to British businesses, Indian industries were
gradually destroyed. By the middle of the 19th century, export of cotton
and silk goods had practically ceased. The misery of the unemployed
artisans was further complemented by the disappearance of their
traditional patrons and buyers, i.e. the princes, chieftains and zamindars.
Inhuman Treatment of Indigo Cultivators: Indigo cultivation had proved
to be extremely beneficial for the British planters. However, the conditions
of work were horrible for the Indian peasants. They were forced to plant
only indigo on their lands, and if they disobeyed, their crops would be
destroyed and cattle confiscated as punishment. [2016]

10. (a) Political causes of the Revolt of 1857 :


(i) Lord Dalhousie’s policy of annexation and the Doctrine of Lapse made
the Indian rulers angry and insecure. The prominent states which
fell victim to the Doctrine were : Satara, Jhansi and Nagpur.
(ii) Lord Canning declared that Bahadur Shah’s successor would not be
allowed to use the imperial title i.e. the ‘King’.
(iii) Lord Dalhousie stopped the pension of Nana Saheb.
(iv) The kingdom of Oudh was annexed in 1856 on the grounds of alleged
misrule.
(b) The immediate cause of the revolt was the introduction of Enfield rifles.
There was a rumour that the cartridges to be used for the rifles were
greased with the fat of cows and pigs. This sparked off the Mutiny. On
10th May, 1857 all the three sepoy regiments at Meerut rose in revolt.
(c) (i) End of Company’s Rule : The Revolt ended the East India Company’s
rule in India and the Indian empire came under the direct control of
the British Crown. Queen Victoria became the Empress of India.
(ii) Position of Secretary of State : The Act of 1858 abolished the Company’s
Board of Control and the Board of Directors. All their powers were
transferred to a Cabinet Minister, known as the Secretary of State.
He was to be advised by a Council consisting of 15 members.
3
X - ICSE (History & Civics)  MT EDUCARE LTD.

(iii) Position of Governor-General : The designation of the Governor-


General was changed. He was designated as the Viceroy while
representing the British government in England. It was his duty to
run the Indian administration on behalf of the Crown. He was under
the control of the Secretary of State for India.
(iv) Appointments to the Civil Service : It was decided that appointments
to the Civil Service were to be made by open competition under rules
made by the Secretary of State. [2018]

11. New recruits were required to serve anywhere in India or overseas which
was contrary to Hindu religion. [2019]

2. GROWTH OF NATIONALISM

6. The press helped in promoting nationalist sentiments among Indians in the


following ways:

freedom, equality, home rule and independence, spread among people.
(b) It made the exchange of views between different social groups from
different parts of the country possible.
(c) It carried on daily criticism of the unjust politics of the British towards
the Indians.
(d) It made the people of India aware of the happenings taking place all over
the world. [2014]

7. Two basic reasons responsible for the Surat Split in 1907 were:
(a) The Early Nationalists wanted to confine the movements of Swadeshi
boycott to Bengal, at the same time the Assertive Nationalists wanted to
extend these movements to the rest of the country.
(b) The Early Nationalists wanted Rashbehari Gosh as the President of the
Surat session, while the Assertive Nationalists wanted Lala Lajpat Rai.
[2014]

8. (a) The Indian National Congress was established in 1885 . Wyomesh Chandra
Banerjee presided over its first session
(b) (i) Promotion of close friendly relations between nationalist workers
from different parts of the country.
(ii) Development and consolidation of the feeling of national unity,
irrespective of caste, religion or region.
(iii) The formulation of popular demands on main Indian problems and
their presentation before the Government.
(iv) To train and organise public opinion in the country. [2014]

9. Following are two important contributions of Jyotiba Phule which helped in


preparing the ground for the National Movement:
(a) Mahatma Jyotiba Phule established the Satya Shodhak Samaj in the
year 1873. The aim of this organisation was to attain social justice for
the suppressed sections of the Indian society.
(b) He also laid the foundation of the ‘widow remarriage’ movement in
Maharashtra and worked tirelessly for the education of women. [2015]

10. The immediate objectives of the Indian National Congress were:


(a) To promote cooperation and friendly relations among the national political
workers from all over the country.
(b) To promote a sense of national unity by opposing and discarding all racial,
religious and provincial prejudices. [2015]

11. The names of the presidents who presided over the first two sessions of the
Indian National Congress are Womesh Chandra Bonnerjee and
Dadabhai Naoroji. [2016]

12. Two Repressive Colonial policies of Lord Lytton were:


(a) He passed the Vernacular Press Act in 1878. According to it, the Indian
newspaper could not print against the government. He also passed the
Indian Arms Act in 1879. Under this Act, Indians could not keep arms
without the valid license.
(b) He reduced the maximum age limit for the Indian Civil Service Examination
from 21 to 19 years, thus making it difficult for the Indians to compete
for it. [2017]

13. Two main associations that were the precursors of the Indian National
Congress were the Indian Association (1876) and the Indian National
Conference (1883). [2017]

14. Three contributions of Raja Ram Mohan Roy were:


(a) It was largely due to the efforts of raja Ram Mohan Roy that the practice
of sati was made a crime punishable by law.
(b) He opposed the caste system and stressed over the equality of all human
beings. He founded the famous Brahmo Samaj in 1828.
(c) He also opposed restrictions on the freedom of press. [2017]

15. Two economic factors responsible for the growth nationalism in india :
(a) Peasantry was reduced to an impoverished state because of land
revenue policies of the British.
(b) The artisans lost patronage due to decline of princely rulers. [2018]

16. Congress session 1885 - Wyomesh Chandra Bannerji.


Congress session 1886 - Dadabhai Naoroji. [2018]

17. Jyothiba phule founded Satya shodhak samaj Raja Ram Mohan Roy
founded Brahmo samaj. [2019]

18. The second half of the 19th century witnessed the growth of a strong feeling
of Nationalism. With reference to the statement, answer the following:
(a) The Vernacular Press Act crushed the freedom of the vernacular news
papers. The Act required the editors to publish nothing that would excite
disaffection against the Government. Many editors who opposed the Act
were sentenced to jail.
The Indian Arms Act (1878) made it a criminal offence for the Indians to
keep or bear arms without licence. Surendranath Banerjee’s reaction
was that the Act “imposed on us a badge of racial inferiority”.
A bill was prepared in 1883 by Ilbert, the Law Member of the Governor-
General’s Executive Council. This Bill was introduced by Viceroy Lord
Lytton to do way with the racial discrimation practised in Indian judiciary.
5
X - ICSE (History & Civics)  MT EDUCARE LTD.

The Anglo-Indian community carried on a wild agitation to protect their


special privileges. The Government ultimately withdrew the Bill and
negotiated a compromise.
(b) The newpapers played a significant role in developing a strong national
sentiment among the Indians. It did so in the following manner:
(i) It was through the press that the message of patriotism and modern
liberal ideals of liberty, freedom, equality, home rule and
independence, spread among the people.
(ii) The press carried on daily criticism of the unjust policies of the British
Government in India and exposed the true nature of British rule in
India.
(iii) It made possible the exchange of views among different social groups
from different parts of the country and organising political movements.
(iv) It made Indians aware of what was happening in the world. This
awareness helped them to understand the political and social
development of the outside world and shape their own policies and
programmes.

[2019]

3. FIRST PHASE OF THE INDIAN NATIONAL MOVEMENT

4. Dadabhai Naoroji exposed the economic exploitation of India through his book
‘Poverty and Un-British rule in India’. [2013]

5. Gopal Krishna Gokhale is regarded as the political guru of Mahatma Gandhi.


It is so believed because he played an important role in both, Gandhi coming
back to India permanently, and as well as Gandhi’s decision to not involve
himself in India’s political life immediately after return. It was because of
Gokhale’s advice that Gandhi chose to travel through the length and breadth
of India’s rural hinterland first and understand the situation here. [2015]

6. Two contributions of Dadabhai Naroji were as follows:


(i) Dadabhai Naroji as an economic thinker explained the theory of ‘Drain of
Wealth’. He pointed out the British government was draining the Indian
wealth to England in various ways like by paying the salaries and pensions
of the British officers in India from the Indian exchequer.
(ii) Dadabhai was one of the founding members of the Indian National
Congress and he demanded ‘Swarajya’ or ‘self government’ in the initial
meetings of the INC. [2015]

7. Dadabhai Naoroji’s “Poverty and UnBritish rule in India” and


“Condition of India” to explain the “Drain of India’s wealth”. [2019]

4. SECOND PHASE OF THE INDIAN NATIONAL MOVEMENT

9. (b) The moderates differed from the radical nationalists in the realisation of
their objectives. This becomes clear from the fact that the moderates
were asking for Dominion Status, i.e. self-government under the British
crown whereas the radicals were demanding purna swaraj or complete
independence.
(c) Tilak brought a new wave in Indian politics through his new, radical
political beliefs, his scathing criticisms of the British government and in
the manner in which he attempted to mobilize the masses and assimilate
them into the mainstream of the national movement.
 Tilak’s three pronged approach to independence was ‘ swaraj’,
‘swadeshi’ and ‘boycott’.
 Through his weeklies – ‘Kesari’ and ‘Mahratta’ – he regularly launched
offensives against the government in a language that roused the
masses.
 In order to revive the Indians’ pride in their ancient civilisation and
culture, he began the celebration of the Ganpati festival and
Shivjayanti on a large scale. To this effect, he also organised akharas
and lathi clubs for the youths.
 In the year 1896 he led a ‘no rent campaign’ and asked the peasants
not to pay land revenue to the government.
 He opposed the partition of Bengal and transformed the anti-partition
movement into a movement for swaraj. He was also responsible for
launching the Home Rule movement later in the year 1916.
 Through his writings and political strategies, Tilak slowly but surely
radicalised the gamut of India’s social, political struggles. [2013]

10. Two important contributions of Lala Lajpat Rai:


(i) He started the monthly magazine ‘Young India’ to spread the message of
the right of India to attain Swaraj.
(ii) He was influential in the expansion of D.A.V. College in Lahore in 1886.
He also opened various orphanages, hospitals and schools. [2014]

11. Following are the two causes for the rise of Assertive Nationalism:
(i) Many leaders within the Indian National Congress had become frustrated
with the British authorities. They had realised that the so called British
idea of ‘justice’ and ‘fairplay’ was nothing but colonial propaganda and
that the British never intended to devolve any power to the Indians.
(ii) The Early Nationalists had failed to achieve anything concrete. They
insisted on constitutional agitation and refused to do anything when
faced with government apathy and suppression, clinging to their belief in
the British sense of justice. As a result, the young emerging leadership
within the Congress, i.e., the Assertive Nationalists, had became frustrated
with them. [2015]

12. When the decision to partition the Province of Bengal was announced, Lord
Curzon put forward several flimsy arguments as the cause behind the partition.
He said that the Province of Bengal was too large to be administered by a
single provincial government. In this context, Lord Curzon further stated that
the partition of Bengal was necessary for administrative efficiency. [2016]

13. (a) The Swadeshi Movement created a rift between early and assertive
nationalists. While the assertive nationalists wanted to use the Swadeshi
and Boycott Movements as a weapon to unsettle the British in India, the
early nationalists did not support the Boycott Movement as it was contrary
to their policy of ‘petition and persuasion’. While the assertive nationalists
wanted to spread the movement outside Bengal, the early nationalists
wanted the movement to remain confined within Bengal. The differences
between the two sections of the INC became apparent in the 1907 session
of Congress held in Surat. While the assertive nationalists proposed the
name of Lala Lajpat Rai as the President of the Surat session, the early
nationalists proposed the name of Rashbehari Ghosh for the chair. There
were discussions and debates in the Surat session among both factions.
However, there was no conciliation between both groups leading to the
split in Congress in 1907.
(b) (i) The three personalities were popularly known as ‘Lal, Bal and Pal’.
(ii) They represented the Assertive nationalists.
(iii) The Assertive Nationalists had faith in the masses and proposed to
win freedom through mass action. They also believed that India could
not gain independence from the British rule until and unless a fierce
fight is given to them in the form of Swadeshi and the boycott
movement.
(c) Four methods that were advocated by the Assertive Nationalists for the
achievement of their aims were:
(i) Swadeshi: Swadeshi means the use of goods which are produced by
indigenous industries. It aimed at making the country self-reliant and
self-sufficient. The assertive nationalists used Swadeshi as a tool not
only to promote the Indian industries but also to hit the British economic
interests.
(ii) Boycott: The assertive nationalists stressed on the boycott of foreign
goods in an effort to boost local Indian industries. It also aimed at
providing employment opportunities to the people.

(iii) National Education: A national scheme of education was planned as


an alternative of the government-controlled universities.
(iv) Passive Resistance: The Assertive Nationalists followed the policy of
nonviolent resistance and strong political action to achieve
independence of the country. [2017]

14. Bal Gangadhar Tilak.


Tilak started newspapers such as ‘Kesari’ and ‘Maratha’ which exposed British
empire. [2018]

15. (i) He started the Servants of the Peoples Society for the welfare of the
downtrodden and outcastes.
(ii) He also laid the foundation of the Dayanand Anglo - Vedic College at
Lahore. [2019]

5. THE MUSLIM LEAGUE

4. Hindu- Muslim Unity - It was the year when Lucknow Pact was signed
which created understanding between Muslim League and Congress.
(i) Unity within the Congress - It was the year in which both Early Nationalist
and Assertives decided to work together.
(ii) Swaraj - The pact led to the gradual development of self - governing
institutions. [2013]

5. (a) The following are three important factors that led to the formation of the
Muslim League in India.
British Policy of Divide and Rule – The revolt of 1857 had made the
British aware of how fragile their rule was in India if the Indians were
allowed to unite against the foreign masters. In order to avoid this, the
British devised a policy of ‘di vide and rule’ to perpetuate their hold over
India. In the pursuit of this policy, a strategy of appeasement was followed
towards the zamindars and other power elite of the Indian peninsula. At
the same time, deliberate attempts were made through the State
propaganda machinery to sow the seeds of disunity and communal hatred
among the two major religious communities – the Hindus and the Muslims.
Realising that it was the resentment amongst the Muslims, formerly the
chief ruling class in India that caused the 1857 rebellion to spread like
wild fire, the Muslims were singled out for persecution.
Religious/Revivalist Orientation of Congress Leaders – The radical
Congress leaders like Tilak and Lala Lajpat Rai did not shy away from
using religious terminology and symbols in their political discourse. In
fact many a times they drew inspiration from the traditional concepts of
Hinduism. Tilak, on his part, started celebrating public festivals of Ganesh
Chaturthi and Shiva Jayanti in order to instil pride among the Indians
for their ancient culture. This was also done in order to mobilise the
masses on a large scale. Though this was not done with a communal
agenda, it ultimately did alienate the Muslims from Congress politics.

The efforts of Sir Syed Ahmed Khan.


(i) Sir Syed Ahmed Khan was one of the most important leaders of the
Muslims.
(ii) He was the first leader who strove hard to remove the hostility of the
British rulers towards the Muslims.
(iii) He opposed the activities of the Indian National Congress and advised
the Muslims not to join it.
(iv) He founded Mohammedan Anglo-Oriental College which later on became
the nucleus of Aligarh Movement which worked to instill into the minds
of the Muslims a spirit of loyalty towards the British crown.
(v) In 1888, he founded United Indian Patriotic Association to counter the
Congress propaganda.
(vi) He also founded Mohammedan Anglo-Oriental Defence Association to
combat the growing influence of the Congress.
(b) The following are the three important demands made by the Muslim
deputation to the Viceroy Lord Minto:
 There should be representation of Muslims in elected bodies on the
basis of their political eminence and not on the basis of their numerical
strength.
 There should be separate electoral constituencies for the Muslims in
the provincial council and the imperial legislative council.
 Preference should be given to members of the Muslim community
while nominating members to the Viceroy’s Council. [2013]

6. (b) The following are three important factors that led to the formation of the
Muslim League in India.
British Policy of Divide and Rule – The revolt of 1857 had made the
British aware of how fragile their rule was in India if the Indians were
allowed to unite against the foreign masters. In order to avoid this, the
British devised a policy of ‘di vide and rule’ to perpetuate their hold over

strength.
 There should be separate electoral constituencies for the Muslims in
the provincial council and the imperial legislative council.
 Preference should be given to members of the Muslim community
while nominating members to the Viceroy’s Council. [2016]

7. Objectives of the Muslim League :


(i) To put forth the interest of Muslim community in gentle and mild language.
(ii) To make Muslims harmonious with other religious communities.
(iii) To convince the Muslims about the intentions of British.. [2018]

6. MAHATAMA GANDHI AND THE NATIONAL MOVEMENT

6. Mohammad Ali and Shaukat Ali were the leaders of the Khilafat movement
that was launched in India to champion the cause of the Caliph of Turkey.
[2013]

7. The Indians boycotted the Simon Commission because it had no Indian


members. The fact that the British government thought it appropriate to leave
out Indians from an institution that was to decide the political future of their
country was considered a grave insult. Since the Commission was completely
unrepresentative of Indian concerns, it was decided to boycott it completely.
[2013]

8. The Gandhi-Irwin Pact of 1931 was signed between Mahatma Gandhi and
Lord Irwin because both wanted peace in the country. The following are one
provision each of the pact:
(i) The British government decided to release all political prisoners excluding
the ones that were guilty of violence.
(ii) In return, the Congress agreed to suspend the Civil Disobedience
Movement. [2014]

11

9. (a) Non-cooperation is ‘a way of protesting in which one does not cooperate


with the evil doer’. Gandhi had asked the people to refuse cooperation to
the British colonial rulers in order to protest against the injustice meted
out to them.
(b) The following were the objectives of the non-cooperation movement:
(i) Attaining self government within the British Empire if possible and
outside if necessary.
(ii) Annulment of the Rowlatt Act and remedying the ‘Punjab wrong’,
i.e., the British government should express its regret over happenings
in Punjab and particularly in Amritsar.
(iii) Remedying the ‘Khilafat wrong’, i.e., the British should adopt a lenient
attitude towards Turkey and restore the old status of the Sultan of
Turkey.
(c) The following are the different facets of the impact of the non-cooperation
movement on India’s freedom struggle:
(i) Non-cooperation turned the Indian national movement into a mass
movement since it drew participants from such sections of society as
peasants, workers, students, teachers, women, etc.
(ii) The non-cooperation movement turned the Indian National Congress
from a deliberative body into an organisation for action. It actually
became an organiser and leader of a mass movement.
(iii) The non-cooperation movement brought an element of Hindu-Muslim
unity in national politics by merging the Khilafat issue with that of
non-cooperation.
(iv) The movement promoted prohibition and removal of untouchability.
Many national schools and colleges were also set up in different
parts of the country.
(v) Though the movement had the goal of attaining ‘swaraj’ or self rule
within the British empire and outside it if necessary, it actually
radicalised many of its later actions. Though it failed to achieve swaraj
in the immediate period, it definitely speeded up activities in that
regard.
(vi) While earlier, the activities of the INC had been limited to the urban
areas and involved only the upper classes and castes, the non-
cooperation movement actually extended nationalist politics to every
nook and cranny of the Indian rural landscape. The Congress was
organised into provincial committees at the Nagpur session of
December 1920 and hence began the process of reaching out to the
rural poor through regional endeavours.
(vii) It also instilled a certain confidence among the people and generated
a desire amongst them to challenge colonial rule and attain freedom .
[2014]

10. The Simon Commission was rejected by the Congress as it had no Indians
members. This was seen as a violation of the principle of self-determination
by the members of the Congress. [2015]

11. (a) Dandi March is the famous march undertaken by Gandhiji. He began
this march from the Sabarmati Ashram in Ahmadabad to Dandi, a village
located on the sea coast of Gujarat.

12

(b) As the Civil Disobedience Movement could not be suppressed by the


government, a pact known as the Gandhi-Irwin Pact was signed between
Lord Irwin and Gandhi. Two main features of the Pact were:
(i) While the Congress agreed to suspend the Civil Disobedience
Movement, the government agreed to withdraw all ordinances and
end persecutions.
(ii) The Congress agreed not to press the government for investigations
into police excesses and the government agreed to release all political
prisoners except those who were guilty of violence. Further, the
government also permitted peaceful picketing of liquor and shops
selling foreign clothes.
(c) In the Second Round Table Conference, many socially backward depressed
classes demanded separate electorates. Apart from them, separate
electorates were also demanded by the Indian Christians, Muslims and
Anglo Indians. The question of granting of dominion status receded into
the background. As the government refused to give dominion status to
India, Gandhi returned to India and restarted the Civil Disobedience
Movement in India. [2015]

12. It was at the 1929 Session that the Indian National Congress passed the
famous Poorna Swaraj Resolution. The Congress President unfurled the Indian
flag for the first time at this session, and Indians were asked to observe 26
January as Independence Day. [2016]

13. (a) Causes for Gandhiji to launch the Non-Cooperation Movement:


Khilafat Movement: The treatment meted out by the British government
to the Caliph of Turkey disturbed Indian Muslims as he was seen as
their religious head. As a result, they started the Khilafat Movement
under the leadership of the Ali brothers— Maulana Azad and Hasrat
Mohani. Gandhiji saw this as an opportunity to achieve the much desired
Hindu–Muslim unity and made efforts to make common cause with the
Khilafat leaders. He was elected as the President of the All-India Khilafat
Conference in 1919 and advised the Khilafat Committee to adopt a policy
of non-cooperation with the British government. The Khilafat leaders
agreed and campaigned accordingly. Thus, the Khilafat Movement
furthered the cause of the Non-Cooperation Movement.
Rowlatt Act: The Rowlatt Act of 1919 authorised the British government
to arrest and imprison any person without trial and convict him in a
court. The authorities could arrest an Indian without a warrant and
could conduct his trial in seclusion. Also, the Act implied severe
restrictions on the movement of individuals and the suspension of the
Right of Habeas Corpus. These were seen as a major breach of trust by
Indians who were expecting the British to deliver on their promise of
providing self-government. Gandhiji appealed to the Viceroy to withhold
his consent to the Act, but his plea fell on deaf ears.
Jallianwala Bagh Tragedy: The Jallianwala Bagh massacre and the
subsequent British reaction to it was a watershed event in the Indian
freedom struggle. It led to a huge furore all over the country and hardened
the Congress resolve to attain selfgovernment.
(b) The Uprising of 1942 was named the ‘Quit India Movement’. Two causes
of the Uprising of 1942:

13
X - ICSE (History & Civics)  MT EDUCARE LTD.

Failure of the Cripps’ Mission: The Cripps Mission was sent to India under
Stafford Cripps for suggesting constitutional reforms in India. However,
the proposals of the Mission were soundly rejected by all sections of
Indian society for the following reasons:
 The Cripps’ Mission did not mention any plan of political independence
for India in the near future.
 The plan proposed the partition of India.
 The Muslim League was against the creation of a single union. The
Cripps proposals did not accept the two-nation theory and refused to
recognise the right of self-determination of the Muslims.
 The Hindu Mahasabha rejected the proposals as it was against the
partition of India.
 The Sikhs, Indian Christians, Anglo-Indians and labour leaders
refused to accept the proposals as they provided no safeguards for
their interests.
Japanese Threat: As Gandhi said, the British presence in India was
an invitation for the Japanese to attack her. The withdrawal of the
British would remove the bait. The Indian nationalists did not want
to fall into the clutches of Japanese slavery from British colonial
domination. To ensure that this did not happen, the Quit India
Movement was launched.
(c) Following were the different ways in which the Non-Cooperation Movement
affected the nature and course of the broader Indian National Movement:
Indian National Movement became a Mass Movement: For the first time
since its inception, the national movement developed a true mass
character with the participation of different classes—workers, peasants,
women, children, students and professionals—in the Non-Cooperation
Movement.
Instillation of Confidence among Indians: The Non-Cooperation Movement
instilled a new confidence among the Indian nationalists and made them
believe that they could fight the mighty British Empire and gain
independence from it.
The Congress became a Party of Action: The Non-Cooperation Movement
turned the Indian National Congress from a deliberative body to an action-
oriented one. The mass character of the movement boosted the radical
elements within the Congress.
Fostered Communal Harmony: With the assimilation of the Khilafat
demands within the programme of the Non-Cooperation Movement, there
developed a semblance of Hindu–Muslim unity within the larger confines
of the Indian National Movement.
Promotion of Social Reforms: As a result of the benign programmatic
ideals of the movement, major progress was made in the avenue of social
reforms. Untouchability was made undesirable within the Hindu social
fold and efforts were taken to assimilate the downtrodden within the
national mainstream. [2016]

14. The Khilafat Movement was launched by Muhammad Ali and Shaukat Ali
against the British attack on Turkey during the First World War. Turkey was
the seat of the Caliph who was considered as the religious head by the Muslims.
The Muslims felt that the weakening of the position of the Caliph would
adversely affect the position of the Muslims. [2017]

(iii) The question of Independence or setting up of a responsible


Government receded into the background.
(iv) The British government refused to concede the immediate grant of
dominion status. Gandhiji returned to India disappointed. [2019]

7. QUIT INDIA MOVEMENT

1. (a) The following are the reasons for the passing of the ‘Quit India’
resolution.
Failure of the Cripps Mission – The failure of the Cripps Mission had
generated a lot of anger among the Indian masses and the Congress
leaders in particular. The general view was that the British government
was just not prepared to extend even a semblance of self-government to
the Indians. Indian national leaders wanted the Viceroy to act as the
Constitutional Head till a new Constitution was framed. However, the
British rulers did not accept this demand. As a result, the Congress
could no longer remain quiet.
Worsening of the Communal Problem – At the Lahore session of the
Muslim League held in 1940, the demand for the creation of a separate
state for Muslims, ‘Pakistan’, was adopted. Mohammed Ali Jinnah and
other leaders of the League proclaimed that the Muslims could not be
expected to be treated fairly by the Hindu dominated Congress and hence
would have to have their own separate state. This resulted in a worsening
of the already precarious communal situation.
Resignation of the Congress Ministries – The Congress ministries had
resigned on the war issue. Their objection was that the British government
had dragged India into a major war without consulting even the central
legislature or the provincial governments. The British government on its
part did not make any significant attempt to convince the Indians of their
war aims. The Viceroy failed to read out and merely declared Dominion
Status as the aim of British policy in India. Therefore the Congress
Ministries resigned towards the end of October 1939.
The Japanese Threat – Gandhi thought that the situation now called for
complete independence from the British yoke. Only then could the country
deal with an imminent Japanese invasion or any other threat to the
territorial integrity of India.
Failure of the August Offer – The August offer made by the Viceroy Lord
Linlithgow failed to impress the leadership of both the Hindus as well as
the Muslims.
(b) The British government reacted in a violent and repressive manner to
the nonviolent Quit India movement. The State apparatus was used
ruthlessly in the name of maintaining law and order in order to suppress
popular discontent. Mobs of protesting Indians were often lathi charged,
dispersed by the fire of pistols, rifles and occasionally even machine
guns. Captured protestors were subjected to flogging, beatings and extreme
torture. Women were stripped and assaulted and even children were
subjected to atrocities. A huge number of protestors were thrown into
jail without trial with long terms of imprisonment.
The Quit India movement was an important landmark in India’s struggle
for freedom from British colonisation. It instilled a new confidence among
the Indian masses and aroused a spirit of total sacrifice in them. The
16
 MT EDUCARE LTD. X - ICSE (History & Civics)

movement attracted participation from a large number of people including


such varied professions as peasants, workers, lawyers, teachers, soldiers,
etc. Men and women of all age groups formed the cadre of the movement.
The most important effect of the Quit India Movement was that it made
the British realise that in the context of the crippling effects of the
Second World War on Britain’s resources and the bitter opposition to its
rule India, it would be very difficult to continue ruling the Indians. [2013]

2. (a) The ‘Mass struggle on non-violent lines’ means participation of the common
people peacefully in the National Movement for freedom struggle.
Resolution of Quit India Movement was passed on the 8th of August,
1942 leading to a mass struggle on non-violent lines.
(i) Failure of the Cripps Mission : The failure of the Cripps Mission left no
meeting ground between the Congress and the government. It was clear
from the proposals that the government was not willing to grant
independence in the near future. The Indians were also not happy at the
proposals of Cripps Mission because proposals contained within them
provisions which could divide India into hundreds of independent
provinces.
(ii) War Situation : There was every possibility that India might be attacked
by Japan and the Indians were helpless because they had no power or
means to resist the attack. So, the Indian leaders felt that the situation
called for complete independence. Gandhiji also felt that an orderly and
peaceful withdrawal of the British could save India from internal anarchy
and external aggression.
(iii) Internal Anarchy : The communal situation was worsening day by day.
The Muslim League was demanding a separate state i.e., Pakistan. This
had spoiled the communal situation.
(b) (i) It demonstrated the depth of the national feelings : The movement
showed the depth of the national will and convinced the Britishers
that the days of their domination in India were numbered. People
from all parts of India fought together against the Britishers.
(ii) Setback to the Britishers : Now the British officials had realized
that the British would not be able to retain their hold on India.
(iii) Parallel Government : A significant feature of the Quit India
Movement was the emergence of parallel governments in Ballia in
Uttar Pradesh. Midnapur in Bengal and Satara in Maharashtra.
(iv) Strengthening of the Congress Socialist Party : The Quit India
Movement helped in strengthening the Congress Socialist Party
because of its magnificent and heroic role in the movement, Roles of
Lohia and J.P. Narayan stand out remarkably. [2018]

8. FORWARD BLOC AND THE INDIAN NATIONAL ARMY

4. The main objectives of the Indian National Army were as follows:


(i) To organise a provisional government of Free India in order to mobilise
all the forces effectively.
(ii) Total mobilisation of Indian man-power and money for a total war.

17
X - ICSE (History & Civics)  MT EDUCARE LTD.

(iii) To organise an armed revolution and to fight the British army of occupation
with modern arms.
(iv) The armed revolution had to be arranged by the Indians living abroad,
particularly in East Asia as it was not possible for the Indians staying in
India to organise it. [2014]

5. The Forward Bloc was founded by Subhas Chandra Bose. One of its important
objectives was the establishment of socialism in India. [2015]

6. The Indian National Army proved to be a watershed event. It proved to the


British that apart from non-violent resistance, Indians could explore the option
of armed struggle as well and that it could prove to be a serious threat to
British colonialism. It gave a major boost to the mainstream nationalist morale
and intensified the efforts of the non-violent nationalists towards Indian
independence. [2016]

7. Two objectives of the Indian National Army were:


(i) To organise an armed revolution to fight the British army with modern
arms.
(ii) To organise a provisional government of Free India in order to mobilise
all the forces effectively. [2017]

8. (a) Subhash Bose


Political Party - Forward Bloc
Military Organisation - Indian National Army
(b) Forward Bloc’s immediate objective was liberation of India with the support
of workers, peasants, youths and other organisations.
Forward Bloc would work for the establishment of a Socialist State through:
(i) reorganisation of agriculture and industry on socialist lines;
(ii) abolition of the Zamindari system; and
(iii) introduction of a new monetary and credit system.
(c) The main objectives of the INA were the following:
(i) To organise an armed revolution and to fight the British army of
occupation with modern arms.
(ii) Since it was not possible for the Indians to organise an armed
revolution from their homeland, this task must depend on Indians
living abroad, particularly on Indians living in East Asia.
(iii) To organise a provisional government of Free India in order to mobilise
all the forces effectively.
(iv) Total mobilisation of Indian man-power and money for a total war.
(v) The motto of the INA was ‘unity, faith, sacrifice’. [2018]

9. INDEPENDENCE AND PARTITION OF INDIA

4. The two proposals related to the princely states in the Mountbatten Plan
were as follows:
 All treaties with the princely states would come to an end.
 The princely states would be free to join any one of the dominions
(India or Pakistan) or remain independent. [2013]

18
 MT EDUCARE LTD. X - ICSE (History & Civics)

5. The three members of the Cabinet mission were:


(i) Lord Pethic Lawrence
(ii) Sir Stafford Cripps
(iii) A.V. Alexander [2014]

6. (a) The Viceroy in the picture is Lord Mountbatten.


(b) Lord Mountbatten was sent to India in order to execute the transfer of
power from the British crown to the Indians. The immediate task entrusted
to him was to restore peace among the two warring factions – the Congress
and the League – both in his executive council and the country at large.
(c) Lord Mountbatten felt that the differences between the political leadership
of the major religious communities in India were irresolvable. He also
opined that the Cabinet Mission Plan was unworkable and a partition of
India was necessary if any future trouble was to be avoided. He therefore
intended to execute the transfer of power without any delay.
(d) The following are three important reasons why the Congress accepted
the Mountbatten Plan:
(i) The horrific communal riots that had taken place between the Hindus
and Muslims of the country had resulted in Congress leaders resigning
themselves to the inevitability of the partition of the country.
(ii) The Muslim League had joined the interim government to obstruct
and not to cooperate. The experience of working with its ministers
had made the Congress realise that it would be impossible to work
with them.
(iii) The only alternative to partition was a Federation with a weak Centre.
The Congress felt that a smaller India with a strong central authority
was better than a bigger State with a weak centre. [2014]

7. (a) The Cabinet Mission proposed many plans for setting up of a Constitution
making body. It proposed that a Constituent assembly would be set up to
frame a new Constitution of the country. It would consist of 389 members
out of which 296 members would be elected from the British Provinces
and 93 members would be appointed from the Princely States. Further,
the Cabinet Mission proposed that the members of the Constituent
Assembly would be elected by the Provincial Legislative Assemblies. In
order to avoid any delay in making the Constitution, the principle of
adult suffrage was not granted.
(b) Two clauses of the Indian Independence Act, 1947, were:
(i) India would be partitioned and two new Dominions – India and Pakistan
– would be created on August 15, 1947. The Act provided legislative
supremacy of both the Dominions. The territories of the two
Dominions were divided in such terms that Pakistan would comprise
of Sindh, British Baluchistan, North West Frontier Province, West
Punjab and East Bengal. India was to comprise of all the remaining
territories included in British India. The exact boundaries of the
Dominion would be decided by the Boundary Commission.
(ii) The Princely States were free to join either India or Pakistan. They
were also given the choice of not joining either Indian or Pakistan
and remain independent.
(c) Congress accepted the Mountbatten Plan due to the following reasons:
(i) The gruesome communal violence which had engulfed the country
at that point of time had convinced the Congress political leadership
19
X - ICSE (History & Civics)  MT EDUCARE LTD.

that partition was inevitable. Not accepting it would amount to even


more hatred and sectarian violence.
(ii) The Muslim League had joined the Interim government to obstruct
and not to cooperate. Experience of working with the League had
convinced the Congress that it could not run a joint administration
with the League.
(iii) The only alternative to partition was a Federation with a weak centre.
A smaller India with a strong central authority was considered to be
better than a bigger State with a weak centre.
(iv) The Congress leaders felt that causing further delay in the transfer
of power would result in the beginning of a civil war in India. [2015]

9. On 6th August 1945 the first atom bomb was dropped on Hiroshima. It destroyed
half of the city killing thousands of people. Despite the terrible destruction,
the Japanese still refused to surrender. On 9 th August , 1945 another bomb
was dropped on Nagasaki. So Japan surrendered unconditionally. [2016]

10. Four clauses of the Cabinet Mission Plan were :


(i) The Cabinet mission proposed the formation of the federal union of the
British Provinces and princely states in India. The Central Government
was to have control of the defence, foreign affairs and communications
in the country.
(ii) It was laid down that the Indian Union was to have its own executive and
legislature and Provinces had the power to enjoy complete autonomy for
all subjects other than union subjects.
(iii) The British Provinces were to be divided into groups. There were three
major groups and a province could opt out of any group and join another
by a majority of votes.
(iv) It proposed the setting up of a Constituent Assembly to frame the
Constitution of India. It was to consist of 389 members. The members
were to be elected by the Provincial Legislative Assemblies. [2017]

11. (i) Lord Mountbatten.


(ii) Provisions of Indian Independence Act.
 Appointment of Boundry Commission to divide the two proposed
new domonions of India and Pakistan.
 Princely states were free to join either of the two dominions or
remain independent. [2018]

12. (i) Division of the Country : The country would be divided into two Dominions
i.e., India and Pakistan.
(ii) Relations between the two new Dominions : It was for the two
Dominions to decide what relations they would have with the British
Commonwealth and with each other.
(iii) The Constituent Assembly : The existing Constituent Assembly would
continue to work, but the Constitution framed by it would not be applied
to Pakistan. A separate Constituent Assembly would be constituted for
those parts which decided in favour of partition.
(iv) The Princely States : The Princely States would be free to choose their
own option, (either join India or Pakistan) and treaties signed with them
would soon come to an end.
(v) A Boundary Commission : A Boundary Commission would be set up to
decide about the boundary disputes.
(vi) Partition of Bengal and Punjab : The provinces of Bengal and Punjab
were also to be divided as per the opinion of their respective Legislative
Assemblies.
(vii) Sindh : The Legislative Assembly of Sindh was to take its own decision at
a special meeting.
(viii) North-West Frontier Province : A plebiscite was to be held in the North-
West Frontier Province to ascertain whether the people wanted to join
India or Pakistan.
(ix) The District of Sylhet : The Muslim majority district of Sylhet was to decide
by referendum whether it would join East Bengal or remain in Assam.
(x) Act for Transfer : The British Parliament would pass an Act for the
transfer of power before August 15, 1947. [2018]

13. (i) Non-Cooperative attitude of the League : The League had joined the
Interim Government to obstruct the working of the Congress and not to
cooperate with it.
(ii) Communal Riots : The large scale communal riots that engulfed the
whole country convinced all that the only solution to the communal
problem lay in the partition of India. These riots were the outcome of
‘Direct Action Day’ observed by the League. [2019]

14. (i) Cabinet Mission: It recommended a two-tier federal type of government


for the whole of India including British India and Princely States.
(ii) Central Government was to have important subjects under its jurisdiction,
namely defence, foreign affairs and communication and also have the
power to raise finances required for these subjects.
(i) Formation of Interim Government : An Interim Government would be
formed at the Centre with 14 members. For the time being the Viceroy
would reconstitute his Executive Council consisting of representatives of
all communities.
(ii) Freedom to join the Commonwealth : The Union of India would be free
to remain in or walk out of the British Common wealth.
(iii) Representation of Minorities : Separate representation was to be given
to Muslim and Sikhs. [2019]

10. THE FIRST WORLD WAR

6. The immediate cause of the First World War was the Sarajevo Crisis.
The crisis took place on 28th June 1914, when the crown prince of Austria,
Archduke Francis Ferdinand and his wife were assassinated at Sarajevo
(Capital city of Bosnia). It was traced that the assassination was planned by
the ‘Black Hand’ – patriotic terrorists of a secret society in Serbia - because
they wanted to unite all south Serbians under a single Serbian state. However,
Austria sent them an ultimatum. The Serbian government refused to accept
some of the demands, resulting in Austria declaring war against Serbia.
[2013]
7. (a) The following are two important terms of the Treaty of Versailles:
(i) It held Germany responsible of aggression that resulted in the war.
(ii) It confirmed that Belgium, Poland, Yugoslavia and Czechoslovakia
were completely independent nation-states.
(b) Two factors responsible for the failure of the League of Nations were:
(i) The League of Nations could not take any effective action against
China when it attacked Manchuria, or when Italy attacked Abyssinia.
(ii) The USA never joined the League. This was a major setback as USA
was a major world power.
(c) Two functions of the General Assembly are:
(i) To make recommendations for the peaceful settlement of disputes.
(ii) To consider and make recommendations on the principles of
cooperation, in the maintenance of international peace and security.
[2014]
8. The two rival blocs formed in Europe before World War I were the ‘Triple
Entente’ and the ‘Triple Alliance’. [2015]

9. (a) Militant nationalism was one of the major causes of the War of 1914.
Militant nationalism arose in Europe in the latter part of the 19th century.
It meant outright wars by the European countries to achieve their goals.
Militant nationalism included two main features: First, the mechanism
of maintaining great large standing armies and navies. This was
accompanied by espionage, suspicion, fear and hatred, etc. Second, the
existence of a powerful class of military and naval officers, headed by
staff, who tended to dominate, especially at a time of political crisis, over
the civilian authorities. Militant nationalism was caused by aggressive
nationalism, economic competition and international tension.
Aggressive nationalism meant love for one’s own country and hatred
towards other countries. Each nation thought about its own national
interests and did not care for the interests of the other nations. Countries
developed expansionist policies in the name of nationalism. Therefore,
military might became synonymous with national prestige and power,
and all countries began to increase their military power.
By the end of the 19th century, England and France had built up huge
colonial empires in the continents of Asia and Africa. These colonies
provided raw material for their industries and acted as a readily available
market for their finished products. As a result, even newly emergent
nations like Russia, Italy and Japan made efforts to acquire colonies. As
the scramble for colonies became fiercer, the political situation became
more and more hostile, which resulted in the War of 1914.
22

(b) The Treaty of Versailles crippled Germany’s military strength in the


following ways:
(i) The Rhine Valley was demilitarised and the German territory located
to the west of the Rhine Valley was occupied by the troops of the
Allies for next 15 years.
(ii) The strength of the German army was reduced. While the number of
soldiers was restricted to one lakh, the navy was limited to only
15,000 men and 24 ships.
(iii) Use of air force and submarines was banned.
(c) The peace treaties signed after the First World War dramatically altered
the political map of the world and of Europe in particular. Three ruling
dynasties were destroyed – the Romanovs in Russia during the War itself,
the Hohenzollern in Germany and the Hapsburg in Austria-Hungary. Soon
after the war, the Ottoman Empire of Turkey ceased to exist. Austria and
Hungary became separate independent States and so did Czechoslovakia
and Yugoslavia. Multicultural and multiethnic empires came to an end and
in their place largely culturally and ethnically homogenous nation states
emerged. These included Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Yugoslavia.
Alsace and Lorraine were restored to France and Schleswig-Holstein was
restored to Denmark. [2015]

10. (a) The immediate cause of the First World War was the assassination of
Archduke Francis Ferdinand who was the heir to the throne of Austria
and Hungary. He was assassinated at the Bosnian capital of Sarajevo on
28 June 1914. The assassination was planned by a secret society named
‘Black Hand’ which aimed at uniting all Serbians into a single Serbian
state. After his assassination, Austria served an ultimatum to Serbia
making eleven demands. Serbia accepted most demands but refused some.
As a result, Austria declared war on Serbia on 28 July 1914. Russia
supported Serbia and started making preparations for war. On 1 August
1914, Germany declared war on Russia. On 4 August, Britain declared
war on Germany. Soon after many countries joined the war.
(c) Four terms of the treaty of Versailles which affected Germany after
World War I were:
(i) Germany was held guilty of aggression. She was required to pay a
huge war reparations of 33 billion dollars for the losses of the victorious
nations.
(ii) The Rhine Valley in Germany was to be demilitarised, and German
territory to the west of Rhine was to be occupied by the Allied troops for
15 years.
(iii) Germany lost Alsace-Lorraine to France and Schleswig to Denmark
and coal mines in Saar, Germany, were given to France for 15 years.
(iv) The size of the German army and navy was restricted, and its air
force and submarines were banned. [2017]

11. (a) (i) There was a scramble among the European nations for new territories
in Africa and Asia in the 19th century. Most of the countries were
occupied by Britain and rest by France, Spain, Holland, Portugal and
Belgium. These colonies were used as captive markets for the sale of
goods. Germany was left behind. But when Germany entered the
race of establishing colonies and wanted a share in the world market,
then Britain, France etc. became concerned. This was the beginning
23
X - ICSE (History & Civics)  MT EDUCARE LTD.
of clashes between Germany and other colonial powers.
Moreover, there were small wars between France and Italy over Tunis;
Britain and Russia over Persia; France and Germany over the control
of Morocco and Britain and France over their possession in Egypt and
Sudan.
(ii) Nationalism had become competitive and aggressive. Love for ones
nation meant hatred towards the other. France and Germany were
old rivals as Germany had seized its provinces, Alsace and Lorraine
in the Franco-Prussian War 1871. Competitive nationalism, economic
competition and international tension led to piling up of stock of
weapons. Britain and France felt concerned with German war-
preparations and growing strength, hence they were forced to enter
the arms race.
(b) (1)
(i) The German territory to the West of Rhine Valley was to be occupied
by the Allied Troops for 15 years.
(ii) Germany was to return Alsace and Lorraine to France.
(iii) She was to hand over Eupen and Molmedy to Belgium.
(iv) She also had to give Schleswig to Denmark.
(v) The German city of Danzing was made a free port in the Polish territory.
(2) (i) Britain and France shared Togoland and the Cameroons.
(ii) Other German colonies were shared between England, Belgium,
Portugal and South Africa.
(iii) Japan was given Shantung and fort Kiao-chow in China.
(iv) New Zealand was given Samoa Islands. [2018]

12. The German army was disbanded. She was allowed to keep only one lakh
soldiers. The air force and sub marines were also banned. Her navy
was limited to 15,000 men and 24 ships. [2019]

13. Germany, Austria - Hungany and Italy signed the Triple Alliance in 1882. [2019]

14. The league of Nations was established to prevent was and promote
international cooperation. It was created in accordance with Woodrow
Wilson’s Fourteen Points. [2019]

11. RISE OF DICTATORSHIPS IN EUROPE

3. (a) The leader in the picture is Adolf Hitler.


(b) The four factors that led to the rise of dictatorships in Germany and Italy
are as follows:
The Treaty of Versailles – The terms of the Treaty of Versailles were
humiliating to say the least. The treaty was especially harsh on the
German nation. The Germans were forced to cede large chunks of their
territory in Europe to France, Poland, Belgium and Denmark. The overseas
possessions were also taken from Germany and divided among the Allies.
The total strength of the once powerful German army was significantly
reduced by the treaty. This caused bitter resentment among the Germans.
Dissatisfaction of Italy with the Peace Treaties – Italy had joined the war
on the side of the Allies and contributed a great deal to the Allied triumph.
However, when it came to sharing the spoils of the war, the other powers
24
 MT EDUCARE LTD. X - ICSE (History & Civics)
of the alliance had sidetracked Italy. It was felt by the Italians that
despite investing a great deal in the War, both in terms of men and
money, they had not gained much due to the self-centred approach of
their Allies. Hence, there was great dissatisfaction among the Italians.
Economic Conditions – The repercussions of the First World War were
especially severe in Italy and Germany. In Italy, war debts and budget deficits
were putting a great strain on State finances. Urban professionals, peasants,
industrial labourers were feeling the pinch of the post War inflation. While
there were agrarian riots in the countryside, strikes in the urban centres
were increasing. In Germany also, people were suffering from many economic
hardships. Condition was even worse in Germany in terms of inflation and
unemployment. In addition to its economic woes, the Allied countries had
imposed huge reparations on Germany as war indemnity.
Political Instability – The post War governments in Germany and Italy
were politically weak as well as corrupt and inefficient. The political
leadership in both Germany and Italy had failed to respond to the needs
of their people. Italy had failed to control the industrial and agrarian
riots whereas the government in Germany was despised as a symbol of
the Versailles Treaty humiliation.
(c) Hitler had been demanding the possession of the Polish Corridor and the
port of Danzig for a long time. His contention was that these parts were
mainly occupied by the German speaking people and hence had to be
assimilated with Germany. By occupying these territories, he could
connect East Prussia with Germany. To this end, Poland was accused of
committing atrocities on its German speaking subjects. Using this and
other excuses, Hitler attacked Poland.
Fascism and Nazism as ideologies are similar in many respects. To begin
with, both believe in the concept of autocratic rule, the phenomenon of
one ‘Leader’. They have an inherent distaste for democratic governance
and provide elaborate arguments to demonstrate the inefficiency of the
democratic system. Although having an explicit preference for totalitarian
power structure (Nazis even called themselves ‘National Socialists’) both
ideologies are staunchly anti-Communist. Both are jingoistic in
orientation, glorify war and violence and are professedly anti-intellectual.
[2013]

4. (a) The leader in the picture is Benito Mussolini. He was the leader of the
Fascist Party of Italy and later became Italy’s dictator. He occupied the
Islands of Rhodes, Dodecanese and the city of Fiume. He also forcibly
captured Abyssinia in 1936. When this led to outrage in the League of
Nations, he withdrew Italy’s membership from the League.
(b) Three factors which led to the rise of Fascism in Italy:
Discontent after the Treaty of Versailles: Italy joined the Allies in the
First World War to gain territories of Turkey and Germany. However, by
the Treaty of Versailles, she managed to secure only Southern Tyrol and
Trentino, and the coastal regions of Dalmatia.
Economic Crisis: Italy suffered heavy losses during the First World War in
terms of life and property. After the war, she faced large-scale unemployment,
especially among soldiers. There was also a severe shortage of food grains.
Political Instability: Democracy was introduced in Italy for the first time in
1919. However, the elections failed to give a clear majority to any one
25
X - ICSE (History & Civics)  MT EDUCARE LTD.

party. As a result, there was severe political instability in the country and
between 1919 and 1922, Italy saw the rule of six coalition governments.
The coalitions had to have several parties within their fold, which in turn
resulted in fragmented policy-making and execution. These coalition
governments were not able to deal with crises such as unemployment,
strikes and riots which took place during 1921–22. This situation was
exploited by the Fascists under Mussolini who promised a strong and
decisive national government.
(c) Similarities between Fascism and Nazism:
 Both ideologies had faith in totalitarian rule. Both despised democracy
and its political institutions.
 Both ideologies held the view that the State is supreme and it could
suppress the fundamental rights and freedoms of individuals.
 Both upheld one party and one leader for a State.
 Both believed in aggressive nationalism and imperialism.
 Both regarded war as an instrument for furthering national interests.
 Both preferred ultra nationalistic, anti-communist and anti-democrati
rule. [2016]

5. Similarities between the ideologies of Nazism and Fascism :


(i) Totalitarian governments with centralised military rule.
(ii) Anti-communism and Anti-Democracy. [2018]

6. With reference to the Rise of Dictatorships and the Second War, answer the
following:
(a) (1) The war had caused a great economic strain on Italy’s economy :
(i) Thousands of war veterans were unemployed after the war.
(ii) The employed workers were under-paid and their working conditions
were not satisfactory.
(iii) There was a steep price rise and inflation in the country.
(iv) There were frequent strikes, lock-outs, food riots.
(v) War debts and deficit budgets hit them worst.
(vi) Italy suffered from industrial and trade recession.
(2) In 1919, a democratic government was introduced in Italy. But there
came series of short-lived coalition governments with neither consistency
nor continuity in their policies. These governments failed to deal with
lawlessness and food riots in the country. The workers broke the
machinery and captured the factories. The industrialists who were sick
of the labour unrest and sabotages financed the ‘Fascios’ to break these
industrial strikes.
(3) Italy had joined the First World War on the side of Britain and France in
1915. She hoped to get large territories such as Trentino, Trieste, Istria,
Fiume, coastal regions of Dalmatia, Albania and some parts of Germany
and Turkey after their victory. But the Paris Peace Treaties gave her
nothing from the defeated German and Turkish
empires.Hence Italians felt badly cheated by their war­time Allies.
(b) (1) Though England and France were victors but their status and economic
position was lowered. Large scale production, minimum loss during
26
 MT EDUCARE LTD. X - ICSE (History & Civics)

the war and possession of atom bomb made the USA as one of the
Super Powers of the world. Another Super power was the Soviet Union.
The Russian empire was greatly expanded. It included half of Poland,
Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Finland and many parts in Germany. It
also emerged as a dominant power in world politics and occupied
position of a leader of the Communist Bloc.
Two Power Blocs emerged after the Second World War. They were :
(i) The American Bloc
(ii) The Soviet Bloc.
(2) The horrors of the two World Wars and failure of the League of Nations
forced the Allied powers to create the United Nations Organisation.
The U.N. was established on October 24, 1945 with its headquarters
at the New York, the USA to save the coming generation from the
scourge of another War. It is the largest organisation with more than
190 member states. It has been there for about 6 decades and serving
for peace and mankind.
(3) The War shattered the colonial empires of Britain, France, Portugal,
Germany, Italy, etc. A desire of freedom gained ground in the people
of the colonies of Asia and Africa. India, Burma, Sri Lanka, Malaya
who were under Britain, became free. The East-Indies became free
from the Dutch rule; Indo-China became free from French rule. The
British, the French, Portuguese colonies in African continent also
set free.
(c) Germay, Italy and Japan formaed an alliance called the Axis Powers.
Their opponemts led by Britain, France, U.S.A and Soviet Russia come to
be know as Allied powers. [2019]

12. THE SECOND WORLD WAR

2. The Cold War can be said to be a condition of extreme political unfriendliness


and hostilities between two equally powerful states or groups of states. In the
context of world history, it was a ‘war without weapons’ between two power
blocs led by the USA and the USSR. [2013]

3. Two factors responsible for the failure of the League of Nations were:
(i) The League of Nations could not take any effective action against China
when it attacked Manchuria, or when Italy attacked Abyssinia.
(ii) The USA never joined the League. This was a major setback as USA was
a major world power. [2014]

4. (a) (i) The rise of extreme nationalism in the form of Fascism and Nazism
pushed the world towards the Second World War. Mussolini, the leader
of the Fascists in Italy, established a dictatorship and committed his
nation to the Anti-Comintern Pact in 1937 and later to a ten year
alliance with Germany in 1939. He also attacked Abyssinia in
pursuance of his imperialistic designs. On this, the League of Nations
failed to take any action, which exposed the political weakness of
the League. In Germany, the rise of Hitler and his brand of Nazism
made conditions explosive. He flouted the military clauses in the
27
X - ICSE (History & Civics)  MT EDUCARE LTD.

Treaty of Versailles and declared re-armament. In 1938, he annexed


Austria and attacked Czechoslovakia.
(ii) The Japanese policy of imperial expansion was another important cause
for the outbreak of the Second World War. In pursuance of its
imperialistic ambitions, Japan intervened in Manchuria in 1931,
occupied it and set up a government despite the League of Nation’s
opposition. The Japanese also started an undeclared war against China
in the same year. Despite China’s cries of help, the League of Nations
took no action. Japan also joined the Berlin-Rome-Tokyo Axis to further
its policy of conquest and expansion. In 1933, it left the League of
Nations and began to occupy British and American properties in China.
Still, the leading members of the League continued their policy of
appeasement. Thus, this chronology of events contributed significantly
to the eventual outbreak of the Second World War.
(b) The major destruction caused by the two World Wars and the abject
failure of the League of Nations to deal with it compelled the Big Three –
Roosevelt of USA, Churchill of Britain and Stalin of Russia – to meet at
Yalta in February 1945. They resolved to convene a conference of the
representatives of all nations at San Francisco to draw up the ‘Charter of
United Nations’. This led to the establishment of the United Nations
Organisation on October 24, 1945. [2014]

5. The policy of appeasement means a policy of conciliating with an aggressive


power at the cost of some other weak country. It meant accepting the hostile
demands of an aggressive nation to gain peace. Britain, America, and France
followed the policy of appeasement towards Germany under Hitler. [2017]

6. Japan invaded China as it was following the policy of expansion. [2017]

7. USA and Soviet Union had fought together during the Second World War. But
by the end of the war, ideological differences began to appear between both
nations. While USA was following the capitalist model of economy, Soviet
Union was following communism. This resulted in ideological differences
between them. Although both countries did not engage in an actual fight
with each other, there was uneasy political tension between the two. Both
countries followed policies to strengthen themselves and to weaken the other.
This period of uneasy tension and political instability is known as the Cold
War. Both countries formed alliances and began piling up nuclear weapons.
There were economic warfare, propagandas and proxy wars between the two
countries. Although USA and the Soviet Union never fought a war with each
other, they were extremely hostile to the other. [2017]

8. (i) Rise of Dictatorship : The rulers of Germany, Italy, Japan believed in


aggressive nationalism. They wanted to acquire colonies for their countries
to satisfy their nationalist urges and for their economic interests. Italy
annexed Ethiopia (Abyssinia) and Albania. Japan annexed Manchuria;
Germany annexed its neighbouring states like Austria and Czechoslovakia ;
Soviet Russia too pounced upon the weak countries of Eastern Europe and
Central Asia. Again there was a war between China and Japan in 1937, and
many Chinese cities fell into Japanese hands. The League of Nations failed
to check their aggressive policies of territorial annexation.
28
 MT EDUCARE LTD. X - ICSE (History & Civics)

(ii) Arms Race : In order to achieve the territorial gains, Italy, Germany and
Japan began producing firearms, tanks, warships, aircraft and other weapons
of destruction at large scale. The Disarmament Conferences failed to stop
the stock piling of arms and ammunition. Also, the League Nations failed in
this regard.
The European nations began to doubt Hitler’s motives. They formed power
blocs for their securities. So, before the outbreak of the Second World War.
Europe was divided into rival camps.
(iii) Japanese Aggression : She was determined to dominate the Far East. In
1931, Japan intervened in Manchuria and, in spite of the League’s opposition,
she occupied it and set up a government there. Japan also started an
undeclared war against China in 1931.
Japan joined the Berlin-Rome Axis to form the Berlin-Rome-Tokyo Axis
to further its policy of expansion and conquest. In 1933, Japan left the
League of Nations and started occupying the British and American
properties in China.
(iv) Failure of League of Nations : The League was either defied or ignored.
The authority of the League was flouted by Japan when it seized
Manchuria in 1931; and by Italy when it conquered Ethiopia in 1936. The
economic sanctions were of no use against a determined aggressor.
Moreover, the member states were not willing to apply economic sanctions
as it affected their economy as well. The League failed to maintain
international peace and the countries of Europe lost fiath in its
usefulness.
On one side, there was England, France and Russia and, on the other,
there was Italy, Germany and Japan.
(v) Immediate cause : The immediate cause of the outbreak of the Second
World War was Germany’s aggressive attack on Poland on September 1,
1939. On September 3, 1939, Britain and France declared a war against
Germany and there began the Second World War. In August, 1939
Germany signed a non-aggression Pact with Russia. [2018]

9. (i)
(a) Defeat of Germany and Italy :
(i)Up to the middle of 1942, the Axis powers (Germany, Italy and Japan)
met with remarkable success and captured large territories in Europe,
Africa and Asia. But by the end of 1942, the tide began to turn
against the Axis Powers.
(ii) In November 1942, the Allied forces (Britain, France, the Soviet Union
and the USA) recaptured African territories lost by France. This was
followed by their victory over Italy. The Allied Powers forced Italy to
make an unconditional surrender and sign an armistice.
(iii) In March 1945, the Allied forces moved across the Rhine and dealt a
death-blow to the German forces. Hitler was so disapponted with
the defeat of Germany that the he committed suicide.
(b) Recapture of Territories from Japan :
(i) After the defeat of Germany, the Allied Powers turned their attention
towards Japan. In South East Asia, Japan had won victories over a
number of countries and had occupied Hong Kong, Philippines,
Malaya, Singapore, Myanmar, parts of New Guinea and Indonesia.
29
X - ICSE (History & Civics)  MT EDUCARE LTD.

(ii) The British forces liberated Myanmar, Malaya, Philippines and


Singapore. In the Potsdam Conference held on July 26, 1945, the
Allied Powers asked Japan to surrender, but Japan turned a deaf ear.
(iii) Consequently, America dropped the first atomic bombs on Hiroshima
and Nagasaki on August 6, 1945 and August 9, 1945 respectively.
Japan offered to surrender on the terms of Potsdam declaration and
the war came to an end.
(c) Conference of World representatives post World War II :
(i) The horrors of the two World Wars and the failure of the League of
Nations led to a meeting of the Big Three- Roosevelt (President of
the US, Churchill (Prime Minister of Britain) and Stalin (Premier of
the USSR) at Yalta in February 1945. They resolved to convene a
conference of the representatives of all nations at San Francisco to
draw up the ‘Charter of the United Nations’.
This led to the establishment of the United Nations Organisation on
October 24, 1945.
(ii) The two rival blocks that were against each other during Second world
war were Allied powers comprising of Britain, France, USA, Soviet Union
and Axis powers comprising of Germany, Italy and Japan. [2019]

10. The two rival blocks that were against each other during Second world war
were Allied powers comprising of Britain, France, USA, Soviet Union and
Axis powers comprising of Germany, Italy and Japan [2019]

15. NON-ALIGNED MOVEMENT

5. The two architects of NAM were Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru of India and Marshal
Tito of Yugoslavia. [2013]

6. (a) Non Alignment is the international policy of a sovereign state according


to which it does not align itself with any of the power blocs and at the
same time actively participates in international affairs to promote
international peace, harmony and cooperation. The main features of the
policy of non-alignment are as follows:
(i) A non aligned country does not align itself with any power bloc.
(ii) It does not join military alliances like NATO, Warsaw Pact, etc.
(iii) It protects its sovereignty completely and takes its foreign policy decisions
independent of outside influence.
(iv) Non alignment is not passive and hence the states involved actively
participate in world affairs and international politics.
(v) It explicitly upholds the rights of all people to freedom and justice without
any discrimination.
(c) Jawaharlal Nehru can be justly called the initiator of the Non-Aligned
Movement. Having realised that getting involved in the power politics of
the two Cold War military blocs would only bring death and destruction,
he advocated that the newly independent nations of Africa and Asia should
maintain equidistance from both the camps. He advocated mutual respect
for the sovereignty and territorial integrity of all nations. It was him who
gradually convinced the newly independent colonies to accept the concept
of non-alignment.
Despite Nehru’s preference for western liberalism and democracy and
his ideological inclination towards socialism, he did not support the
military alliances led by US and USSR. He opposed them based on his
conviction that these encouraged imperialism and colonialism and led to
arms races. His brand of non-alignment refused to become a third power
bloc but instead pursued freedom of decision making for the recently
decolonised states.
33
X - ICSE (History & Civics)  MT EDUCARE LTD.

Thus, under Nehru’s leadership, India initiated and supported many


endeavours to promote the principles of non-alignment. This included
the sponsorship of a 1962 UN Resolution, calling upon the member nations
to take diplomatic and economic steps against the apartheid regime in
South Africa. Nehru was also in favour of disarmament and abolition of
nuclear stockpiles. It was in pursuance of this goal that India signed a
treaty in 1963 for banning of atomic tests. [2014]

7. Non-Alignment is the international policy of a sovereign State according to


which it does not align itself to any of the power blocs. However, at the same
time, it actively participates in international affairs with a view to preserve
and promote world peace, harmony and cooperation. The Non-Aligned
Movement was launched by the newly independent colonies of Asia and Africa
in order to preserve their sovereignty and avoid getting dragged into the Cold
War. [Non-Aligned Movement] [2015]

8. Principles of ‘Panchsheel’ :
(i) Mutual non aggression.
(ii) Mutual respect for territorial integrity. [2018]

House by a simple majority of the members’ votes. [2013]

13. The Vice-President can cast a vote in the Rajya Sabha in order to break a tie
[2013]

14. The Rajya Sabha is not subject to dissolution and hence it is called a
‘Permanent House’. [2014]

15. The Lok Sabha must meet twice each year, with no more than six months
between sessions [2014]

16. (a) The tenure of the members of the Lok Sabha is five years, if the Lok Sabha
is not dissolved earlier. When a Proclamation of Emergency is in operation,
the life of the House may be extended by no more than one year at a time.
In the case of the Rajya Sabha, one-third of its members retire at the end
of every second year. So in effect, the term of the members of the Rajya
Sabha is 6 years.
(b) The maximum strength of the Lok Sabha is 552. Out of this number, up to
530 represent the States and not more than 20 represent the Union
Territories. Besides, 2 members of the Anglo-Indian community may be
nominated by the President in case he feels that the community is not
adequately represented. The allotment of members to the States is roughly
on population basis.
The Rajya Sabha consists of not more than 250 members. Out of these, 12
members are nominated by the President from among people having special
knowledge or experience in literature, science, art or social service. The
remainder of the members are elected by the people from the States and
Union Territories. The allocation of seats among the States and the Union
Territories is done on the basis of the population.
(c) The following are the powers of the Parliament with regards to the Union
List and the Concurrent List respectively:
(i) The Parliament has exclusive powers to make laws on all the 97
subjects enumerated in the Union List. These include important
subjects like Defence, Communications, Foreign Policy, etc.
(ii) Along with the State Legislative Assemblies, the Parliament can also
make laws on the 47 topics enumerated in the Concurrent List. If
there is a conflict between the Union Parliament and the State
Legislature on a law in this list, the Constitution dictates that the
Union Law shall prevail. [2014]

17. The two houses of the Indian Parliament are the Lok Sabha and the Rajya
Sabha. [2015]

18. The President nominates two representatives belonging to the Anglo-Indian

quorum is not met then the Speaker has the right to adjourn the meeting.
[2015]

20. One provision of the Constitution which clearly establishes the supremacy of
the Lok Sabha with regards to money bill is that it can be introduced only in
the Lok Sabha. [2015]

the Rajya Sabha. [2015]

22. (a) The maximum strength of the members of the Rajya Sabha or the Council
of States is 250 members. Out of the 250 members, 238 are elected by
the States in the Union, while 12 are nominated by the President from

permanent house which is not subject to dissolution like the Lok Sabha.
Two Legislative Powers:
(i) Money bills cannot be introduced in the Rajya Sabha.

matters. It takes decisions on topics like defence, economic policy,
security, President’s Rule, formation of new states, industrial policy,
imports and electoral reforms. The Ministries have freedom of action
but in effect it is the Cabinet that they have to consult before
practicing it.
(ii) Once a policy decision is made by the Cabinet, it is communicated to

implement it. In this way, governance is carried out by the Council of
Ministers and the civil servants entrusted with the responsibility.

which are excluded from original jurisdiction by Article 131.
(c) The Supreme Court is designated as the guardian and protector of
fundamental rights. Any private citizen can approach it for the protection
of his fundamental rights and the Supreme Court may issue Writs like
habeas corpus, mandamus, quo warranto and certiorari for their
enforcement. The Union and the State governments are prohibited from
making any law which takes away or abridges the Fundamental Rights.
If this is done, the Supreme Court can declare it null and void. [2014]

12. The framers of the Indian Constitution were very particular about keeping
the Judiciary free from the control of the Legislature and the Executive. This
is because administration of justice has a special significance on the rights
of an individual, and needs to be protected from the influence of the executive
as well as administrative functions. Also, there was a need for neutral and
impartial dispensation of justice, if the judgments were to go against the
Government. Hence the Judiciary was kept independent to ensure the
protection of human rights in our democracy. [2015]

13. The Court of Record is defined as the court whose judgments are recorded for
evidence and testimony. These are in the nature of precedents and are
referred to in other courts of the country.
The Supreme Court of India is considered as Court of Record. This is because
some judgments made by the Supreme Court are considered to be laws. High
Courts and District Courts give their judgments in light of those passed by
the Supreme Court. The High Court too is a ‘Court of Record’ like the Supreme
Court because the judgments made by the High Court are preserved as a
record to be referred to by and binding on all subordinate courts in the
concerned State. An important characteristic of the High Court is that it has
the right to punish an individual for contempt of court. [2015]

14. (a) A person can qualify to become the Judge of the Supreme Court if he/she
(i) Is a citizen of India and

the power to hear appeal against the decisions of the lower courts like the
district court in civil and in criminal matters. In civil cases, appeals can be
brought before the High Court if they are concerned with the matters of
land revenue or if an injustice is done by the tribunal. In criminal cases, it
can hear appeals where the sentence of imprisonment exceeds seven
years, in case of a death sentence and in cases against the state where
an order of acquittal has been passed by a Session Judge.
(b) The High Court is a court of law as its judgments and orders are preserved
as a record to be referred by its court in future cases. The law laid down

order from a Superior Court to a lower court or an administrative
authority to perform certain duty. [2019]

CLIMATE
Assignment Answer Sheet

A.5.
(a) Two cyclonic systems that affect India are :
(i) Temperate cyclones - Region - North west of India (Punjab, Haryana)
(ii) Tropical cyclones - Region-eastern coast of India (Andhra Pradesh, Tamil
Nadu, West Bengal).

(b) Characteristics of South West monsoon are :


(i) Orographic in nature.
(ii) Uncertain in amount and time.

(c) Reasons :
(i) When the Malabar coast is receiving heavy rainfall in July, the Tamil
Nadu coast is dry because it lies in rain shadow region of Arabian sea
branch and Bay of Bengal is parallel to the coast.
(ii) Northern plains have continental climate because they are away from
the moderating influence of the sea.
(iii) Central Maharashtra receives little rainfall because it lies in the rain
shadow region of Western ghats when Arabian sea branch strikes it.

(d) (i) Annual rainfall is 114.3 cm.


(ii) Suggested name is Chennai.
This is because the station is receiving most of its rain in October and
November.
(iii) Retreating monsoon season. [2013]

A.6.
(a) Punjab receives rainfall due to the cyclonic disturbances (western disturbances)
that originate over the Eastern Mediterranean sea during the winter season.
Tamil Nadu receives rain fall from Northeast Monsoon wind during the winter
season.

(b) (i) Kerala : The local wind is called Mango Shower . They bring little rain in
April and May, which is helpful in the early ripening of mangoes, tea and
coffee plants.
(ii) West Bengal : The local wind is called Norwesters or Kalbaisakhi. The
rain is useful for rice and jute in West Bengal.

(c) (i) Patna receives heavier rain than Delhi because the Bay of Bengal branch
of South-West Monsoon goes up the Ganga plain. As it proceeds up the
Ganga valley, the amount of rainfall keeps decreasing from east to west.
Since Patna is located to the east of Delhi, it receives 102 cm of rainfall
while Delhi gets 50 cm of rainfall annually.
(ii) The Arabian Sea branch of South-West Monsoon winds passes over the
western Rajasthan, parallel to the Aravalli range. So it hardly causes
any rain in Western Rajasthan. Further this area lies on the leeward
side of the Aravalli range.

68
 MT EDUCARE LTD. X - ICSE (Geography)

(iii) Mangalore is located at the south of Tropic of Cancer along the Western
Coast of India and enjoys the moderating influence of land and sea breeze
throughout the year. The climate over there being equable or maritime
type, the place does not experience any winter.

(d) (i) Annual Range of temperature = 36.2°C - 24.6°C = 11.6°C.


(ii) Total Annual Rainfall = 24.5 + 23.1 + 15.0 + 2.4 + 0.1 + 11.0 + 9.3 +
7.2 + 4-0 + 9-4 + 14-5 + 20-4 = 140.9 cm.
(iii) The station is located on the eastern coast of India, because heavy rainfall
is observed in winter season. [2014]

A.7.
(a) The factors that affect the climate of India are as follows :
Altitude : Temperature decreases at the rate of 1° C for every 166m rise in
height. Thus the mountains are always cooler than the plains. E.g. Darjeeling
is cooler than Kolkata in summer.
Distance from the sea : The areas in the interior of the country have an
extreme type of climate while the coastal areas have a moderate climate.
This is mainly due to the influence of land and sea breeze caused by differential
heating and cooling of land and sea. E.g. Delhi experiences an extreme,
climate while Mumbai experiences an equable climate.

(b) The rainfall caused during June to September in North India is caused by the
South West Monsoon Winds. These are onshore winds which on being
obstructed by the Himalayas, result in heavy rainfall.
The rainfall caused during December - February in North India is caused by
the Western Disturbances. These are temperate cyclones that originate in
the Mediterranean Sea and travel towards India resulting in moderate rainfall.

(c) (i) Kerala is the first state in India to receive the monsoon generally by the
first week of June. It is also the last state from where the monsoon
withdraws i.e. by 1st December. Thus Kerala receives rain for 6 months.
So it is said that Kerala has the longest rainy season.
(ii) Western Ghats obstruct the onshore Arabian Sea branch of the South
West monsoon winds causing heavy orographic rainfall on the western
slopes of the Western Ghats which comprises the windward side of the
Konkan coast.

(a) Tropical Monsoon type of Climate.
The factors which are responsible for monsoon type of climate in India :
Altitude : Temperature decreases at the rate of 1° C for every 166m rise in
height. Thus the mountains are always cooler than the plains. E.g. Darjeeling
is cooler than Kolkata in summer.
Distance from the sea : The areas in the interior of the country have an
extreme type of climate while the coastal areas have a moderate climate.
This is mainly due to the influence of land and sea breeze caused by differential
heating and cooling of land and sea. E.g. Delhi experiences an extreme,
climate while Mumbai experiences an equable climate.

winds are deflected towards the Indian Sub-continent as South-West


monsoon winds which blow over Arabian Sea.
(iii) The Arabian sea branch of South-West monsoon runs parallel to the Aravalli
which does not offer any obstruction. As a result Thar desert, located in
the west of Aravalli, receives no rain. The moisture laden winds passing
over Thar desert do not saturate as the heat in the desert region increases
their capacity to hold moisture. So, Thar receives no rainfall.

(ii) Cheap supply of electricity.

(c) (i) Perennial source of water i.e. snow fed rivers, low relief with deep fertile
soil are the conditions responsible for the development of canal irrigation
in northern India.
(ii) Karnataka, in Deccan India consists of underlying hard rocks which are
impervious. It does not allow the water to seep through. The region has
large number of natural depressions where tanks can be built. It is also
difficult and expensive to built canal or well as a form of irrigation.
(iii) Sprinkler irrigation does not involve any loss of water by seepage or
evaporation as the water is supplied by pipes. It is not exposed to the sun.
It is the best method for conserving water.

(d) (i) The activity of collecting rainwater directly or recharging it into the ground
to improve ground water storage in the aquifer is called rainwater harvesting.
(ii) Two objectives are recharging the ground water and raising its level to
meet the demands of water requirement in the dry season.
Checking the rainwater from flowing far away so as to prevent soil erosion
and flooding of the surrounding area. [2016]

A.7.
(a) (i) Punjab : South-West monsoon brings rain only during the periods from
end of July to middle of September. Otherwise monsoon is sporadic,
erratic, uncertain and unevenly distributed. To meet the demand for
water in dry season, irrigation is needed.
Some crops like rice, sugarcane needs more water. Punjab receives
rainfall of about 50 cm annually. So there is a need for irrigation to grow
crops through out the year.
(ii) Rajasthan : Rajasthan receives 25 cm-50 cm of rainfall from South-West
monsoon. To meet the growing demand for food, for the growing population,
irrigation is required with the right amount of water at the right time
e.g., cotton.

(b) (i) Uttar Pradesh/Bihar/Punjab/Haryana.


(ii) Andhra Pradesh/Telangana/Tamil Nadu.

(c) (i) Water management is easier than surface irrigation system. Sprinkler
does not interfere with cultivation and results in less wastage of water
with higher application efficiency.
(ii) Since the cost of installation of a tube-well is high the farmer needs to
grow HYV seeds all round the year to earn more which is only possible in
the fertile production region like North Indian plain.
(iii) Perennial rivers, soft, flat land, fertile soil have encourage canal irrigation
in Northern India topography, undulating relief, rainfed rivers do not
encourage the construction of canals.

A.8.
(a) Following are the reasons why irrigation is necessary for agricultural and
overall economic prosperity of India :
(i) Uncertainty of Rainfall i.e. late arrival of monsoon and early withdrawal
which affects agricultural output negatively. Even abrupt intensity also
affects agricultural output.
(ii) Uneven Distribution of Rainfall in various parts of the country. The entire
Country does not receive the same amount of rainfall.
(iii) Difference in requirements of water by crop. Some crops need more water
while some others need less. The variation in their requirement for water
can be met by proper irrigation facilities.
(iv) Nature of soil also decides the amount of irrigation needed for the crops.
(v) To Maximize Agricultural Productivity by steady supply of water
(vi) To make the best and the effective use of river water, which largely flows
into the sea, without being put to use.

(b) (i) Well, canal, tank


(ii) They are cheap and can can be afforded by the Indian farmers.

(c) (i)
Surface water Ground water
Water found on the surface of the Water which is collected under
earth in rivers, lakes, ponds, the surface of the land in soil,
reservoirs etc is collectively called su b- s o i l o r be d ro ck i s c al l e d
‘surface water’. ground water. It constitutes about
0.66% of the usable water on the
earth.

(ii) (1) Over exploitation of water due to increase in population.


(2) Our water reserve like rivers, takes are polluted.

(d) (i) ‘Rainwater harvesting’ is the collection of rainwater and storing it in


man-made underground or surface tanks and thus preventing its surface
runoff, seepage and evaporation.
(ii) Rainwater harvesting has the following advantages :
(1) It meets the demand for water during summer months when there
is real scarcity.
(2) Reduces the loss of fresh water by surface run-off.
(3) Reduces flooding in the low lying areas.
(4) Raises the groundwater table by adding to groundwater reserves.
(5) Improves the quality of groundwater by reducing groundwater pollution.
(6) Reduces soil erosion by minimizing surface run-off.

(iii) They are :


(1) Rooftop rainwater harvesting.
(2) Construction of tanks / ponds / check dams etc.
(3) Making percolation pits to enable the seepaee of water in the ground.
[2018]

A.9.
(a) (i) The modern means of irrigation are Furrow, spray, drip, sprinklers.
(ii) The modern means are gaining popularity because there is no loss of
water by seepage, there is no loss of water by evaporation and also they
are highly efficient means of irrigation.

(b) Two factors that favour the development of tube well irrigation in Punjab :
(i) Availability of plentiful water at great depths.
(ii) Level land and soft soil for the tubewells to be set up.
(iii) Large fertile area in its surrounding area to be irrigated.
(iv) Availability of regular cheap electricity to run the tubewells.

(c) (i) Canal irrigation is not suitable in South India because :


(a) The rivers of southern India they are seasonal.
(b) The surface of southern India is rocky.
(c) The demand for irrigation is lesser in south India.
(ii) We need to conserve water in India for following reasons :
(a) The increase in population with the progress of time results in water
scarcity.
(b) Water resources like rivers, lakes, etc. are polluted and their water
can hardly be used without adequate treatment.
(c) The water demand for industrial use is increasing day by day.
(iii) (a) Uncertainty of Rainfall: The rainfall in India is highly irregular in
place and time, that is, normal rainfall is marked by wide fluctuations
in different parts of the country. Sometimes the monsoon arrives
early and at times it comes late.
(b) Uneven Distribution of Rainfall: In India, the distribution of rainfall
is quite uneven. Most parts of the country receive 80 per cent of the
annual rainfall from June to September from the South-west
monsoon.
(c) Crop Requirements : Different crops require different quantities of
water for their growth. High yielding varieties requiring higher
quantity of chemical fertilizeras need more moisture which could be
supplied only through irrigation.
(d) Nature of the Soil : The water requirement of different crops depends
on the nature of the soil. For example, clayey soils have higher
moisture holding capacity and therefore, require less irrigation.
(e) To Utilise River Water Effectively : Many rivers in India are not
perennial and carry insignificant flows during the rabi season. There
is also a wide disparity in the water flow from year to year.
(f) To Maximise Production: To obtain maximum production, irrigation
is a must.

(d) (i) Inundation canals are seasonal canals which are drawn from rivers
without constructing any barrage or dam. Such canals use the excess
water of rivers at the time of floods and remain operational during rainy
season.
(ii) Rooftop Rain Water Harvesting is the technique through which rain water
is captured from the roof catchments and stored in reservoirs. Harvested
rain water can be stored in sub-surface ground water reservoir by adopting
artificial recharge techniques to meet the household needs through storage
in tanks.
(iii) The water available on the surface in the forms of rivers, lakes, ponds
and tanks is called surface water. [2019]

(ii) 1. Shortage of raw wool : India does not produce sufficient quantity of
fine quality raw wool. Also the productivity of Indian sheep is very low.
2. Lack of Market : Most parts of India have tropical and sub-tropical
climate which restricts the demand for woollen clothes. The southern
part of the country enjoys warm weather throughout the year and
people do not require woollen clothes at all. Even in the northern
parts of India, the winter season lasts only for four to five months in
a year and it is only during this period that woollen clothes are
required to some extent.

91

3. Lack of Modern Equipment : Most of the equipment in woollen textile


industry, like other textile industries, is obsolete and outdated as a
result of which, its products are not able to cope with the ever-
changing designs and patterns, especially in the international market.
There is an urgent need for mechanisation of the carpet industry
keeping in view the rising demand to put a ban of the child labour.
4. Low Quality : Leaving aside a few exceptions, Indian woollen goods
are considered to be of low quality in the international markets which
results in lack of demand. Indian knitwear is often not shrink
resistant, moth-proof and fast-coloured.

(c) (i) High cost of production : Equipments for production are all worn out,
outmoded in design.
(ii) Storage of raw Jute : Jute industry suffers from inadequate supply of
raw jute.
(iii) Shortage of Power Supply : Load-shedding creates problem of under-
utilization of capacity

(d) The geographical conditions are more suitable in the peninsular region than
in North India for the cultivation of sugarcane.
(i) The crushing season is longer and mills are near the plantation in the
peninsular region and so there is no loss of sucrose. In North India, it is
seasonal in character as sugarcane is available only at the time of harvest
and the crushing season is short. So, there is increase in cost of production.
(ii) The sugar industry is better organized in the peninsular region as the
mills are better managed in the cooperative sector, factories are nearer
the centre of large consumption. This lowers the transport cost and overall
prices. In North India, there are great distances between the factories
and the fields which causes increase in the cost of production.

(b) Temperature : 20°C-30°C.


Rainfall : 75 cm-120 cm.
Frost is injurious to plant. So it needs 200 frost free days to be sown before
winter in north India .
Excessive high or very low temperature and dry winds are harmful for the plant.
Soil : Alluvial clayey barns of the Indo-ganga plains are ideal for its growth. It
is grown in black soil or red soil in South India.

(c) (i) Retting : It is associated with jute. It is a micro biological process. It


loosens the bark and facilitates removal of fibre from the stalk.
(ii) Ratooning : It is associated with sugarcane. After the first crop the
sugarcane is cut leaving the root intact in the soil. The lower part of the
stem which is left in the soil is well fertilized and the stem begins to
grow again.
(iii) Ginning : It is associated with cotton. The cotton fibre is separated from
the raw materials or the seeds.

(d) (i) Pruning is essential for tea bushes because :


The removal of the central stem encourages the quick development of
lateral branches. Pruning also helps in growing new shoots bearing soft
leaves in plenty.
(ii) Coffee gets its characteristic flavour only after roasting. Roasting gives it
a brown colour and pleasant taste.
(iii) Millets can be grown where the rainfall is very low, where rice or wheat
cannot be grown. It is a hardy plant and drought-resistant crop. It needs
no special soil to grow. [2017]

A.10.
(a) (i) Tea grows well on hill slopes with altitude ranging from 900 meters to
2000 meters. This is because both stagnant water as well as frost are
harmful to tea plants.
(ii) Pruning is the removing of the central leader stem to enable horizontal
splitting of the plant. This encourages the growth of more new shoots
with more tender leaves.

(b) (i) Rice cultivation requires a lot of manual labour because :


(1) Labour is required during the sowing of seeds by broadcasting, drilling
or dibbling method.
(2) Labour is also required during the time of transplanting method when
the saplings are transplanted from the nursuring to the original rice
feilds.
(ii) Rainfall : 150 to 300 cm. In irrigated areas even 100 cms is enough
Temperature : Between 18ºC to 32ºC is ideal but more than 35ºC is bad
for the crop.
Soil : Soil that can stagnate water i.e. deeo fertile alluvial loams with
claylike impervious sub-soil which can retain standing water in the field.

(c) (i) Cotton is a labour intensive crop because labour is required during the
time of picking of cotton balls and during the time of ginning.

WASTE MANAGEMENT
Assignment Answer Sheet

A.1.
(a) (i) The objectives of the treatment of gaseous waste is to drain the harmful
particles and allow clean air to escape through chimneys.
(ii) Two diseases are lung-cancer and asthma.

(b) Cause of the following are :


(i) The Bhopal tragedy-leakage of methyl isocyanate.
(ii) The Minamata disease-by mercury poisoning.
(iii) The Chernobyl disaster-leakage of nuclear radiations.
[2013]

A.2.
(a) (1) Waste accumulation pollutes air, water and soil.
(2) It degenerates the landscape, chokes the drainage system.
(3) It creates health problems like cholera, dysentery, typhoid, etc., due to
growth of bacteria in the water.

(b) Acid rain is the deposition of the acidic components in rain, snow, fog, dew or
dry particles. The acidity can increase through the introduction of Sulphur
dioxide and Nitrogen oxide mostly emitted by industries and automobiles into
the atmosphere. Sulphur dioxide and Nitrogen oxide combine with water vapour
and oxygen to form dilute sulphuric and nitric acid. Winds may spread these
acidic solutions across the atmosphere when these acid rains reach the Earth.
It flows across the surface run off and enters the water system.
Two effects of acid rain are : -
(1) It is largely responsible for scarring buildings, monuments, corroding
metals and damaging vegetation.
(2) It makes water in the lakes and wet lands acidic and make them toxic
for aquatic life.
[2014]

A.3.
(a) (i) Segregation of wastes according to methods of treatment is necessary
for proper waste management. Thus wastes are separately collected in
different bins for biodegradable and non biodegradable products.
(ii) Radioactive elements are considered harmful because exposure to these
radioactive elements can cause serious health problems. Since radioactive
elements remain active for a long time, therefore it can enter human
body through food, fish and water which are already affected. These
radioactive accumulations further damage tissues, blood cells and cause
cancer.
(iii) Generation of wastes can be reduced by reducing recycling and reusing
of wastes known as 3R's.

107

(b) (i) Biodegradable wastes are easily broken down by natural processes of
decomposition. e.g. leaves, plant remains.
(ii) Gaseous waste-carbon monoxide, Methane, CO2, Sulphur dioxide etc.
[2015]

A.4.
(a) (i) Two sources of waste are bio-degradable waste and non-biodegradable
waste.
(ii) Bio-degradable waste are produced by plants, animals, kitchen, paper,
green waste, humans, fertilizers and sewage waste which can be broken
down through microbial activity of fungi and bacteria.

(b) (i) Composting : Composting is biodegradable organic waste like tree leaves,
vegetable peel and discarded food items (converted into useful manure).
(ii) Incineration : Incineration involves burning of waste at a very high tem-
perature and are fed into an incineration chamber and combustion
destroys the organic compound.
(iii) Segregation : The waste from residential areas, hotels restaurants and
office complexes and commercial areas must be segregated at source
into different categories of bio-degradable, non-bio-degradable, bio-
medical, toxic and non-toxic waste.
[2016]
A.5.
(a) (i) Sewage : The liquid and solid waste from the municipality, pollutants
from the industries like arsenic, lead, mercury, fluorides flow through
the water channels and finally join larger water bodies. If not treated
causes serious health problem.
(ii) Eutrophication : It is a process of depletion of oxygen from water bodies
occurring either naturally or due to human activities.
(iii) Recycling : It is a process in which the waste is converted into raw
material that is usable in other useful manufacturing process. This helps
to reduce the waste generation by reversing or recycling it.

(b) (1) Methane is released by industries using coal gas and coal mining.
(2) Methane is released from the land-fills as large amount of waste is
deposited on or under the ground.
(3) Methane is emitted by natural sources such as wet lands, as well as
human activities such as leakage from natural gas systems and the
raising of livestock.
(4) Rotting vegetation produces methane.
[2017]

A.6.
(a) The problem with waste is that it remains in our environment. We move
waste from one place to another but never get rid of it completely. Nature has
recycled waste materials for millions of years. However, human population
108
 MT EDUCARE LTD. X - ICSE (Geography)

has increased so rapidly during the last century that the environment is now
threatened by our activities and the wastes they produce. Much damage is
done to the environment by the pollution of air, degradation of soils and
contamination of water sources such as rivers, lakes, etc.

(b) In developing countries like India, some of the waste materials like old glass
bottles, steel tyres, tin cans are reused. For example, shoes or chappals are
made from old tyres, water bags are made from leather, lamps are made from
tin cans, etc. Many waste collectors roam about in residential areas and
industrial units to collect the solid wastes. They segregate them and supply
them to specialized artisans who make utility articles from such material
and make a living from their skill. For example, a beautiful garden (Rock
Garden) has been created by Nek Chand in Chandigarh using waste products
like tin cans, collectors, thus, help in making new production processes.
Thus, they reduce the burden of waste disposal.

(c) (i) Waste accumulation can cause significant damage to aquatic life, both
fresh water and marine. Two categories of waste that cause greatest
damage to aquatic life are - pesticides, which run off agricultural lands
and industrial and domestic wastes that are improperly disposed of
into water bodies. Toxins present in these wastes can kill aquatic
organisms directly by sufficiently changing the pH of water, covering
the water surface and causing a reduction in dissolved oxygen. The
aquatic organisms are also affected by a phenomenon, known as
biomagnification.
(ii) Accumulation of solid waste looks ugly, smells foul, attracts insects,
rats and other animals that spread diseases. Burning of waste in the
open dumpyards causes smoke and foul smelling air. In addition,
rainwater can drain through refuse and carry harmful substances to
different places.
(iii) Sanitary landfills are not fit for human settlements because methane
and carbon dioxide gases start coming up in the first two years. These
gases are produced when solid wastes start decomposing underground.

(d) (i) 'Segregation of waste' refers to separation of various types of waste


such as bio-degradable or bio-nondegradable, reusable, toxic or non-toxic
etc so that it is either recycled into useable products or disposed off in a
safe and environmental friend manner.
(ii) Composting of waste is an aerobic (in the presence of air) method of
decomposing solid wastes. The process involved known as compost
which is a good fertilizer for plants. The composting process produces
carbon dioxide and heat which can be used for various purposes like
cooking. The organic wastes from households are made to undergo
decomposition in such a way that bacteria and other micro-organisms
break them down and produce a safe, clean and soil - like material
called compost.
109
X - ICSE (Geography)  MT EDUCARE LTD.

(iii) ‘Open dumping of waste’ refers to dumping of waste in open low lands
far away from the city. It is the cheapest method but not an environment
friendly method of waste disposal.
[2018]

A.7.
(a) (i) Decomposition of wastes produces harmful gases that pollute the air
around us.
(ii) Direct dumping of untreated waste in rivers, seas and lakes results in
the accumulation of toxic substances in the food chain through plants
and animals that feed on it (biomagnification, thus polluting the quality
of water around us.

(b) (1) Accumulated solid wastes when left uncared, start decomposing. A
number of pathogenic (disease-producing) bacteria, virus and fungi grow
from these wastes.
(2) Files, insects, rodents etc., live in the accumulated waste heaps and
carry germs of various diseases to human habitation.
(3) Decomposition of wastes produces harmful gases that pollute the air
around us.

(c) (i) The three R's are Reuse, Reduce amd Recycle of waste.
(1) Reuse : This includes the practise of using the things instead of throwing.
(2) Reduce : This includes the practise of buying fewer things and using
them for a longer period to avoid waste.
(3) Recycle : It is using of waste materials and remaking some other
article for use. This can be sued at home….
(ii) (1) Sorting out of the reusable material form heaps of waste may often
involve much manual labour.
(2) Pieces of metal, glass, rubber, plastics etc., are removed to be recycled
to get finished products.
(iii) The major benefits of composting are: (Write any three)
(1) It enhances soil nutrients and water retention capacity of soils.
(2) It suppresses plant diseases.
(3) It rejuvenates poor soils by adding humus
(4) It absorbs odours and degrading volatile organic compounds.
(5) It prevents pollution by preventing pollutants in storm water run - off
from draining into ware resources.
(6) It checks soil erosion and silting on embankments
(7) It reduces cost as there is no need for excess water, fertilisers and
pesticides.

(d) (i) Trees can absorb toxic gases and purify the air by releasing oxygen.
Hence more trees must be planted in the industrial areas
(ii) The excessive use of chemical fertilizers create pollution. The fertilizers
are used to enrich the soil, but they also contaminate the soil with
110
 MT EDUCARE LTD. X - ICSE (Geography)

impurities. On the other hand organic fertilizers enrich the soil without
contaminating the soil with impurities.
(iii) (1) Plastic is non-biodegradable. The bonds of carbon in plastic are
impossible to break down through a physical or chemical process.
They have to be incinerated, recycled or buried in landfills.
(2) The plastic bags which are extensively used in India are made from
recycled plastic.
(3) The recycled plastic bags are harmful because the melting of plastic
and plastic products breaks some polymer chains into smaller units
which are harmful.

Short answers :
2. Two functions of capital are :
1. It helps the process of division of labour : Capital makes the system of
division of labour more refined. It is only when there is an abundance of
capital that is possible to assemble a large number of workers at one
place.
2. It expands employment : Since capital expands production, it also expands
employment. Thus, if we are to reduce the volume of unemployment in
the country, we must pay attention to capital formation in a country.
[2018]

11. (i) Capital, when invested in education and health, increases the productivity
of workers.
(ii) Without capital there can be no production. Capital makes possible the
use of advanced modern machines in production. Moreover, no
technological progress is possible without capital. [2015]

13. Land, in economics, means not only the surface of the earth but all those
free gifts of nature, the supply of which can be regulated. Land possess the
following characteristics.
(i) Free Gift of Nature : Land is a gift of nature given to man free of cost.
Man has to spend nothing to obtain it. He has to make no efforts to get it.
Rather, it existed even long before the evolution of man. All other factors
of production have to be produced at a cost.
(ii) Land is limited in supply : A peculiar feature of land is its fixed supply.
Other factors of production can be increased in supply to a greater or
lesser extent. But it is impossible to increase the supply of land.
(iii) Land is a passive factor of production : Land is passive factor of
production because it cannot produce anything by itself.
(iv) Land is Permanent : Land is not perishable but it is indestructible and,
thus it cannot go out of existence. It is not destructible. A labourer will
die one day and with him will disappear his service. A machine can get
depreciated and is used up ultimately. But land can never be destroyed.
(v) Land is immovable : Land is immovable. It cannot be transported from
one place to another, while labourer and capital can be shifted. It is
fixed and cannot move from place to place. It also fixed in the sense that
the total supply of land in a country cannot be increased or decreased.
(vi) Land varies in fertility : Fertility of land differs on different pieces of
land. All pieces of land are not equally fertile. These days fertility of soil
can be increased through the use of chemical fertilisers.

[2013]

18. Land as used in economies, is defined to include not only the surface of the
earth but also all other free gifts of nature.
The importance of land becomes evident from the following facts :
(i) Agricultural Development : The agricultural development of a country
largely depends upon the quantity and the quality of land. About 43 percent
of land area of India is plain and suitable for crop farming.
(ii) Industrial Development : The development of industries is also dependent
upon land, because the raw materials for these industries are ultimately
obtained from land. What is more, the power (i.e. electricity, coal, etc.) to
run such industries is also provided by land.
(iii) Development of the means of Transport and communication : Land
facilitates the development of the means of transport and communication
in the country.
(iv) Importance to Man : Much of our requirement of food, clothing, etc., are
directly or indirectly met from land. Not only food, even clothing comes
from nature. Land is the main source of our agricultural activities.
Residential houses are constructed on land.

(v) Promotion of science and Technology : Natural resources promote science


and technology. Human work on these resources make hundred of things
which are useful to us in our daily life. e.g. dams,solar panel, herbs etc.
In short, land is the backbone of the economy of a nation. In fact, no life is
without land. (2013)

19. Real Capital : It refers to physical stock of goods which are used as inputs in
production, e.g. machines, raw-material.
Debt Capital : It implies wealth such as shares, debentures etc. [2013]

20. By productivity of land, we mean the capacity of a piece of land to produce a


crop. The main factors that determine the productivity of land are explained -
(i) Natural Factors : Productivity of land is largely determined by its natural
qualities such as fertility, slope of land, climate, chemical and biological
properties of the soil.
(ii) Human factors : Land cannot produce anything by itself. Man has to
apply labour on it to produce for himself. Therefore, productivity of land
also depends upon the knowledge and training of workers.
(iii) Improvements of Land : Productivity of land is affected by land
development measures like provision of well or tubewell irrigation, proper
drainage, fencing, etc.
(iv) Location of land : The location of land also affects the productivity of
land. Land located near to the market is supposed to be more productive
than land at a distant place, as it will not require extra amount to bring
the produce to the market.
(v) Organisation : Productivity of land also depends upon the way how the
factors of production like labour and capital are organised. In order to
increase productivity of land, trained workers, modern implements,
scientific methods, good seeds, manure and dependable sources of
irrigation are all essential.
(vi) Ownership of Land : Ownership of land is an important factor affecting
the productivity of land. Owners always take much interest in maximising
the productivity. They encourage workers to work hard and increase the
productivity and the other hand, persons with temporary settlement do
not take much interest in the cultivation of land because they can be
evicted from land.
(vii) Availability of capital : The productivity of land also depends on the use
of capital. It can be increased with the help of improved seeds, chemical
manures and machines. Thus, intensive cultivation gives a higher
productivity on a small piece of land. [2014, 2016]

21. When a worker is specialised in the production of a single commodity, it is


called simple division of labour. [2014]

22. Two factors that determine the Supply as labour :


(i) Size of population : The most important factor affecting the supply of
labour is its population. The larger the population, the larger will be the
number of persons who will have the capacity to perform physical or
mental work. Hence, the larger will be the supply of labour.
115
X - ICSE (Economics)  MT EDUCARE LTD.

(ii) Age composition : The supply of labour depends not so much on the
population as on the age-composition of the population. Population falling
under [0 –14] years and [60 and above] is said to be dependent population
while population between the age group [15 – 59] years is independent
population. This group comprises the actual labour force in the country.
(iii) Wage Rate : The higher is the wage rate, the larger becomes the supply
of labour. This is because a rise in the wage rate makes work economically
more attractive. Hence, the willingness to work increases with a rise in
the wage rate. Some times there are exceptions to this general rule. An
individual’s supply of labour may increase at first with the increase in
wage rate. The worker perfers income to leisure. However, with further
increase in the wage rate, the worker may prefers leisure to income.
[2014]

23. (i) A professor working in a college : Labour consist of all human efforts of
body or of mind which are undertaken in the expectation of a reward.
(ii) A social worker serving in an orphanage : A professor working in college
is labour as he is paid for his work. A social worker working for orphanage
is not labour as he is not remunerated for his work. [2015]

24. Land differs from other factors of production in the following way :
(i) Land is a free gift of nature while other factors of production are not.
(ii) Supply of land is fixed while the supply of other factors of production is
variable. [2015]

25. By efficiency of labour, we mean productive capacity of a worker. It indicates


the capacity of a labour to do more work or better work or both during a given
time period. [2015]

26. The main factors which determine the extent of applicability of division of
labour are :
(i) The size of the Market : The extent to which division of labour can be
adopted depends upon the size of the market for a particular product. If
the product has limited market, it cannot be produced on large scale.
Therefore, only a few workers will be employed and hence the scope for
division of labour will be limited.
(ii) Attitude of Workers : If the workers involved in production are not co-
operative and do not adjust for changes, division of labour would become
difficult.
(iii) Nature of the Production : When goods are to be prepared according t o
individual’s taste and preference (as embroidery, painting, ornaments
etc.) the scope of division of labour becomes very limited.
(iv) Availability of other factors of production : The availability of other
factors of production also determines the extent to which division of
labour is possible. If other factors of production (e.g. land, capital etc.)
are available only upto a limited extent, the scale of output willbe
restricted. [2015]

116

27. Fixed Capital : Fixed capital refers to those capital goods which can be used
again and again in production. Examples : machinery, factory building.
Circulating Capital : In it all those things are included which are used in
production only once. Cotton and fuel are examples of circulation capital.
[2015]

28. Money helps is buying goods and services. Consumption of goods increases
utility and satisfaction of hcople. In this way, money can maximise utility.
[2016]

29. The two ways by which producers benefit from division of labour are :
(i) Increase in efficiency of labour : When a worker does the same work
again and again, he gets specialisation in it. In this way, division of
labour leads to great increase in efficiency and hence production.
(ii) Less cost of production : It encourages production on a large-scale.
Consequently, many economies or benefits of large-scale begin to emerge
which thereby reduce the cost of production. It also encourages the use
of specialised machinery which leads to an increase in productivity.
[2016]

30. The difference between an entrepreneur and two other factor of production
are :
(i) All other factors are employed by the entrepreneur in the production
process. But entrepreneur is not a hired factor of production.
(ii) Unlike reward of the other factors of production, the income of the
entrepreneur is residual in nature. He earns profits only after making
payment to other factors. [2016]

31. We see process - based division of labour in an automobile industry where the
entire production process is divided into sub-processes and labour with
specialised skills work at different sub - processes. [2017]

32. By division of labour, we mean specialisation in work. Under it, the worker
specialises either in the production of a single commodity or single sub -
process. Division of labour is defined by Prof Adam Smith; “as a system whereby
the operations necessary to make a finished product are so minutely divided
that each worker performs one or at the most only a few operations”.[2018]

33. Labour consists of all human efforts of body or of mind which are undertaken
in the expectation of reward. Labour includes all human efforts done with a
view to earn income. Physical or mental work will be treated as labour which
is undertaken to earn income or reward. [2018]

[2018]

36. Following are some suggestions which can improve the efficiency of Indian
workers : (Any two)
(i) The payment of wages should be fair and prompt. Bonus (i.e., a part of
profit) must be given to workers as an incentive to hard work.
(ii) Working conditions in the factories/work places should be improved.
(iii) Social security measures such as insurance schemes, provident fund
contributions, pensions, etc., should be introduced.
(iv) Hours of work should not be more than eight hours. Other facilities like
holidays, leaves, etc., should also be provided to the workers without
further delay.
(v) Technical education facilities should be expanded to all categories of
workers.
(vi) Social set-up : The mobility of labour also depends upon the social set
up. A society dominated by caste system and joint family system lacks in
mobility of labour. But where the joint family and caste systems do not
exists, the mobility of labour increases.
(vii) Advertisement : Advertisement relating to jobs in newspaper also affect
the mobility of labour. [2018]

37. Yes. This activity is considered as production as it creates time utility. Time
utility is that utility which is created by storing up goods in a particular
period of time when their value is low. [2019]

38. Division of labour has the following advantages.


(i) Right man at the right job : Since work is divided into a number of parts
or sub-parts, each worker can be given a job according to his taste and
preference.
(ii) Increase in efficiency of labour : When a worker does the same work
again and again, he gets specialisation in it. In this way, division of
labour leads to great increase in efficiency and hence production.
(iii) Saving of Time and Tools : Division of labour saves both time and tools.
It reduces the time period required for completing the work. Likewise,
there is better use of tools and implements. For example, it is not
118
 MT EDUCARE LTD. X - ICSE (Economics)

necessary to provide each worker with a complete set of tools. He can be


given only those tools that he requires.
(iv) Production of Superior Goods : The division of labour is beneficial in
making goods of superior quality. When a worker is given a piece of work
in which he is best suited, naturally he will produce superior quality
goods.
(v) Inventions : There are more possibilities of inventions under division of
labour. When a worker does the same work daily, he tries to simplify his
process, thereby making inventions possible.
(vi) Less cost of production : It encourages production on a large-scale.
Consequently, many economies or benefits of large-scale begin to emerge
which thereby reduce the cost of production. It also encourages the use
of specialised machinery which leads to an increase in productivity.
(vii) Increase in mobility of labour : The division of labour facilitates greater
mobility of labour. In it, production is divided into different parts and a
worker becomes trained in that very specific task in the production of
the commodity, which he performs again and again. [2019]

39. By productivity of land, we mean the capacity of a piece of land to produce a


crop. The main factors that determine the productivity of land are explained -
(i) Natural Factors : Productivity of land is largely determined by its natural
qualities such as fertility, slope of land, climate, chemical and biological
properties of the soil.
(ii) Human factors : Land cannot produce anything by itself. Man has to
apply labour on it to produce for himself. Therefore, productivity of land
also depends upon the knowledge and training of workers.
(iii) Improvements of Land : Productivity of land is affected by land

land. Land located near to the market is supposed to be more productive
than land at a distant place, as it will not require extra amount to bring

40. Land, in economics, means not only the surface of the earth but all those
free gifts of nature, the supply of which can be regulated. [2019]

41. The features of an entrepreneur are :


(i) All other factors are employed by the entrepreneur in the production
process. But entrepreneur is not a hired factor of production.
(ii) Unlike rewards of the other factors of production, the income of the
entrepreneur is residual in nature. He earns profits only after making
payment to other factors.
(iii) The rewards of all other factors of production are contractual and hence
are always positive. But the reward of an entrepreneur can be positive or
zero or even negative.
(iv) Risk and uncertainty bearing is the key job of the entrepreneur.[2019]

Long answers :
1. Besides upper surface of the soil, land includes all other free gifts of nature
the supply of which can be regulated.
Four characterisistics of Land
(i) Free Gift of Nature : Land is a gift of nature given to man free of cost.
Man has to spend nothing to obtain it. He has to make no efforts to get it.
Rather, it existed even long before the evolution of man. All other factors
of production have to be produced at a cost.
(ii) Land is limited in supply : A peculiar feature of land is its fixed supply.
Other factors of production can be increased in supply to a greater or
lesser extent. But it is impossible to increase the supply of land.
(iii) Land is a passive factor of production : Land is passive factor of
production because it cannot produce anything by itself.
(iv) Land is Permanent : Land is not perishable but it is indestructible and,
thus it cannot go out of existence. It is not destructible. A labourer will
die one day and with him will disappear his service. A machine can get
depreciated and is used up ultimately. But land can never be destroyed.
(v) Land is immovable : Land is immovable. It cannot be transported from
one place to another, while labourer and capital can be shifted. Land is
‘fixed’ in two senses. It is fixed and cannot move from place to place. It
also fixed in the sense that the total supply of land in a country cannot
be increased or decreased.
(vi) Land varies in fertility : Fertility of land differs on different pieces of
land. All pieces of land are not equally fertile. These days fertility of soil
can be increased through the use of chemical fertilisers.
(vii) Land differs in Location : Land differs in the matter of location. Land in
large cities like Delhi, Mumbai and Kolkata is extremely scarce and
hence commands a high value. Land located in a river valley is likely to
be more productive and richer than land located far away or on a mountain
slope.
(viii) Land has many uses : We can make use of land in many ways. On land,
cultivation can be done, factories can be set up, roads or railways tracks
can be constructed, buildings can be raised, and so on. [2014]

2. By efficiency of labour we mean productive capacity of a worker.


Four factors influencing Efficiency of Labour
(i) Education and Training : Education is generally classified in two parts :
(a) General Education, and (b) Technical Education. General education
broadens the knowledge or outlook of labour and makes the labour more
responsible. Technical education trains the labourer to do specialised
jobs. It is job oriented.
(ii) Moral Qualities : A worker’s efficiency also depends upon his moral
values. If he is dependable, responsible, honest and dutiful, his efficiency
will be more.
(iii) Standard of living : Better standard of living leads to an improvement in
health through better nourishment, also leads to improvement in
ducation qualifications. Thus, better standard of living makes the labour
mentally and physically sound and thereby his effciency increases.
(iv) Level of wages : Level of wages also affects efficiency of a worker. A
higher wage increases the worker’s standard of living and, hence, his
efficiency.
(v) Working Conditions : Better working conditions improve the efficiency
of labour. If the labourer works at a place where he can have fresh air,
safe drinking water, adequate light, his efficiency will be definitely more.
Also, the facilities enjoyed by the worker like the length of the working
day, number of holidays per year, accident benefits etc. determine labour
efficiency.
(vi) Organisation : The efficiency of the workers and the organisation are
interrelated. If the organisation provides raw materials, modern
machinery, equipments and tools and makes a proper division of labour,
the efficiency of the workers will definitely improve.
(vii) Experience : Besides education, the experience of a worker makes him
more efficient. His efficiency also goes on increasing as his practical
experience increases.
(viii) Employer-Employee Relations : Efficiency of labour also depends upon
the employer-employee relations. If the relations between the two are
friendly and emphatic, efficiency of labour will be high and vice versa.
(ix) Climate : Climatic conditions also affect the efficiency of labour. Hot
climate as in India reduces the working capacity of a worker. On the
other hand, in the countries having cold climate, labour can work for
longer duration and, hence, efficiency of labour will be more.
(x) Racial and Hereditary qualities : The efficiency of worker to some extent
depends upon the racial and hereditary qualities. If the parents are
intelligent, hard-working, their children will normally inherit these
qualities. [2014]

3. Entrepreneurs can promote the economic development of a country in the


following ways:
(i) Increasing Production : Entrepreneurship results in harnessing the
various factors of production such as land, labour, capital and technology
to the fullest extent. Entrepreneurs take up production of goods and
services for meeting the demand of consumers, import substitution and
exports.
121
X - ICSE (Economics)  MT EDUCARE LTD.

(ii) Employment Generation : Entrepreneurship creates job opportunities


in an economy. When economies are into recession large business units
retrench their labour force and workers search for job in small business
units.
(iii) Innovation : Entrepreneurship results in new technologies and products
that displace older methods and products. It results in higher income
and wealth.
(iv) Increasing Competition : Entrepreneurship results in innovation which
leads to the development of new products, services and methods of
production. Consequently competition increases in the industry as a whole
leading to better products and lower prices.
(v) Breaking-up of Monopoly Market Structures : Small business units
reinvest their profits for further production. It leads to decentralisation
of economic power and thus creating a balanced utilization of resources
in an economy. Thus, monopoly of existing large business enterprises
resulting in exploitation of consumers is finished.
(vi) Improvement of Per Capita Income : Opportunities are converted in
business enterprises via entrepreneurship. It results into increase in
the national income and thereby the per capita income in an economy.
[2018]

7. Labour consists of all human efforts of body or mind undertaken in the


expectation of reward called wage.
Four Characteristic Features of Labour :
(i) Labour is Perishable : If a worker does not work on a particular day, his
labour for that day is wasted. Labour is, thus, perishable. Labour cannot
be stored. The labourer has to sell his labour immediately irrespective of
the prices (i.e.., wages) paid to him.
(ii) Labour is an active factor of production : Land and capital are passive
factors, but labour is an active factor of production. Without labour, other
factors of production, viz., land and capital, cannot produce anything.
(iii) Labour cannot be separated from labourer : Land and capital can be
separated from their owners but labour cannot be separated from a
labourer. Labour and labourer are inseparable from each other. The
labourer will have to present himself at a place where work is going on.
(iv) Labourer sells his labour, not himself : The labourer does not sell himself,
he sells his labour only. A labourer may or may not agree to do work.
(v) Labour is mobile : Labour alone is a factor which is mobile. It can move
from one place to another and also from one occupation to another.
(vi) Labour differs in efficiency : All labourers are not equally efficient.
Some labourers are more efficient due to their ability, training and skill
whereas others are less efficient on account of illiteracy.
(vii) Labour can improve its efficiency : By investing capital on workers’
education and training, the productivity of labour can be improved.
(viii) Inelastic Supply of labour : The supply of labour is inelastic in a country
at a particular time. It means its supply can neither be increased nor
decreased. For example, if a country has scarcity of a particular type of
workers, its supply cannot be increased within a day month or year because
the supply of labour depends upon population.
122
 MT EDUCARE LTD. X - ICSE (Economics)

(ix) Labour is both a means and an end : A labourer is both a means of production
as well as the end of it. He produces goods and also consumes them.
(x) Demand for labour is derived : The demand for labour is derived. Labourers
are demanded only when there is a demand for the goods and services
produced by them.
(xi) Labour has less Bargaining power : The bargaining power of the worker
is low compared to that of the employer. This is so because of the following
reasons : Firstly, labourer is perishable. Secondly, labourers are generally
poor. Therefore, worker consisders it better to accept the low wage offered
by the employer rather than go without work. Finally, there is lack of
organisation among workers due to illiteracy and other reasons.
[2013, 2016]

8. Five Advantages of Division of Labour :


(i) Right man at the right job : Since work is divided into a number of parts
or sub-parts, each worker can be given a job according to his taste and
preference.
(ii) Increase in efficiency of labour : When a worker does the same work
again and again, he gets specialisation in it. In this way, division of
labour leads to great increase in efficiency and hence production.
(iii) Saving of Time and Tools : Division of labour saves both time and tools.
It reduces the time period required for completing the work. Likewise,
there is better use of tools and implements. For example, it is not
necessary to provide each worker with a complete set of tools. He can be
given only those tools that he requires.
(iv) Production of Superior Goods : The division of labour is beneficial in
making goods of superior quality. When a worker is given a piece of work in
which he is best suited, naturally he will produce superior quality goods.
(v) Inventions : There are more possibilities of inventions under division of
labour. When a worker does the same work daily, he tries to simplify his
process, thereby making inventions possible.
(vi) Less cost of production : It encourages production on a large-scale.
Consequently, many economies or benefits of large-scale begin to emerge
which thereby reduce the cost of production. It also encourages the use
of specialised machinery which leads to an increase in productivity.
(vii) Increase in mobility of labour : The division of labour facilitates greater
mobility of labour. In it, production is divided into different parts and a
worker becomes trained in that very specific task in the production of
the commodity, which he performs again and again.
(viii) Cooperation among workers : The work cannot be completed unless
workers cooperate with each other. Division of labour thus develops sense
of cooperation among workers.
(ix) Advantages to the society : Because of availability of a variety of goods
at cheaper rates, the people of the society will have better choice. Thus,
it will improve the standard of living. [2014]

9. By capital formation, we mean the increase in the stock of capital goods (e.g.
machines, equipments, buildings, means of transport, factories etc.) which
are used for more production. It refers to net production. It also refers to net
123
X - ICSE (Economics)  MT EDUCARE LTD.

addition made to the capital stock of an economy during a time period.


Factors influencing capital formation (or process of capital formation).
There are mainly three stages in the process of capital formation. These are :
(i) Creation of savings
(ii) Mobilisation of savings and
(iii) Investment of savings.
(i) Creation of savings : Saving is the first stage in the process of capital
formation. Savings in a country are made by different individuals. These
depends upon several factors like (a) ability to save (b) desire to save and
(c) opportunities to save. Ability to save directly depends upon the level of
income. Higher the income of people, more will be their ability to save.
Besides income, taxation policy of the goverment also affect the ability to
save. When the rates of income tax and sales tax are high, people will be
able to save only less amount than before. Opportunity to save refers to
the conditions of peace and security in the country and favourable attitude
of the government to motivate people to save.
(ii) Mobilisation of savings : Capital formation cannot occur unless savings
made by people are mobilised for investment purpose. Savings are done
by millions of households and firms. This requires a network of banks
and other financial intermediaries who collect these savings and make
them available to the producers or investors.
(iii) Investment of Savings : The third and last stage of capital formation is
the investment of mobilised savings. Unless mobilised savings are utilised
or invested, there cannot be any capital formation. It is, therefore
necessary that the economy should have an entrepreneurial class which
is prepared to bear the risk of business and invest savings in productive
channels. [2014, 2019]

10. By capital formation, we mean the increase in the stock of capital goods (e.g.
machines, equipments, buildings, means of transport, factories etc.) which
are used for more production. It refers to net production. It also refers to net
addition made to the capital stock of an economy during a time period.
Factors influencing capital formation (or process of capital formation).
In a developing economy like India, the rate of capital formation is low. There
are several factors responsible for this. Important among them include the
following:
(i) The level of saving is low because of low level of income. Level of income
is low because of low productivity levels in the agricultural and industrial
sectors of the economy.
(ii) An efficient entrepreneurial class is lacking in developing economies.
(iii) There is lack of banking facilities which has adversely affected the level
of investment.
(iv) Most of the PSUs have been running under losses.
(v) When private entrepreneurs are afraid of nationalisation of their
industries, they will not set-up in industries. [2015, 2016]

11. Division of labour refers to the system of organising production where the
work required to produce a product is divided into different specialized tasks
with different workers specializing in each task.

Three benefits of Division of Labour


Division of labour has the following advantages.
(i) Right man at the right job : Since work is divided into a number of parts
or sub-parts, each worker can be given a job according to his taste and
preference.
(ii) Increase in efficiency of labour : When a worker does the same work
again and again, he gets specialisation in it. In this way, division of
labour leads to great increase in efficiency and hence production.
(iii) Saving of Time and Tools : Division of labour saves both time and tools.
It reduces the time period required for completing the work. Likewise,
there is better use of tools and implements. For example, it is not
necessary to provide each worker with a complete set of tools. He can be
given only those tools that he requires.
(iv) Production of Superior Goods : The division of labour is beneficial in
making goods of superior quality. When a worker is given a piece of work in
which he is best suited, naturally he will produce superior quality goods.
(v) Inventions : There are more possibilities of inventions under division of
labour. When a worker does the same work daily, he tries to simplify his
process, thereby making inventions possible.
(vi) Less cost of production : It encourages production on a large-scale.
Consequently, many economies or benefits of large-scale begin to emerge
which thereby reduce the cost of production. It also encourages the use
of specialised machinery which leads to an increase in productivity.
(vii) Increase in mobility of labour : The division of labour facilitates greater
mobility of labour. In it, production is divided into different parts and a
worker becomes trained in that very specific task in the production of
the commodity, which he performs again and again.
(viii) Cooperation among workers : The work cannot be completed unless
workers cooperate with each other. Division of labour thus develops sense
of cooperation among workers.
(ix) Advantages to the society : Because of availability of a variety of goods
at cheaper rates, the people of the society will have better choice. Thus,
it will improve the standard of living. [2015]

12. A successful entrepreneur should possess the following qualities :


(i) He should possess courage and ability to tackle successfully the day-to-
day problems arising in business.
(ii) He should be capable of taking quick decisions because delay in taking
decisions can sometimes cause heavy losses.
(iii) He should have complete knowledge about his business.
(iv) He should have the capacity to recognise the ability of a person so that
work could be given to the employees according to their tastes and abilities.
(v) He should have the quality of farsightedness.
(vi) An entrepreneur should also possess the qualities of leadership because he
is supposed to work as a ‘captain of the ship’. He should be a good organiser.
(vii) An entrepreneur should be well experienced in his business.
(viii) An entrepreneur should be a man of words. If an entrepreneur is not
honest and does not keep his promise, people will lose confidence in him
and hesitate in lending their money to him. [2015]

13. By efficiency of labour, we mean productive capacity of a worker. It indicates


the capacity of a labour to do more work or better work or both during a given
time period.
The three causes of low efficiency of labour are :
(i) Level of wages : Level of wages also affects efficiency of a worker. A
higher wage increases the worker’s standard of living and, hence, his
efficiency.
(ii) Climate : Climatic conditions also affect the efficiency of labour. Hot
climate as in India reduces the working capacity of a worker. On the
other hand, in the countries having cold climate, labour can work for
longer duration and, hence, efficiency of labour will be more.
(iii) Standard of living : Better standard of living leads to an improvement in
health through better nourishment, also leads to improvement in
education qualifications. Thus, better standard of living makes the labour
mentally and physically sound and thereby his effciency increases.
[2016]

14. Sometimes, due to some reasons, the production of certain goods takes place
in a particular place, state or country. This particular type of division of labour
is called geographical division of labour. For example concentration or
localisation of textiles in Bombay (Mumbai), jute industry in Bengal and sugar
industry in U.P. are the good examples of territorial division of labour.
(i) Right man at the right job : Since work is divided into a number of parts
or sub-parts, each worker can be given a job according to his taste and
preference.
(ii) Increase in efficiency of labour : When a worker does the same work
again and again, he gets specialisation in it. In this way, division of
labour leads to great increase in efficiency and hence production.
(iii) Saving of Time and Tools : Division of labour saves both time and tools.
It reduces the time period required for completing the work. Likewise,
there is better use of tools and implements. For example, it is not
necessary to provide each worker with a complete set of tools. He can be
given only those tools that he requires.

making goods of superior quality. When a worker is given a piece of work
in which he is best suited, naturally he will produce superior quality
goods.
(v) Inventions : There are more possibilities of inventions under division of
labour. When a worker does the same work daily, he tries to simplify his
process, thereby making inventions possible.
(vi) Less cost of production : It encourages production on a large-scale.

which thereby reduce the cost of production. It also encourages the use
of specialised machinery which leads to an increase in productivity.

15. An entrepreneur is a person who specialises in the task of organisation.


Thus, an entrepreneur is the one who organises production, takes important
decisions regarding production, hires/purchases factors of production and
bears the risk and uncertainty involved in production. The task of bearing
risks is called enterprise and the person who bears these risks of business is
called an entrepreneur.
(i) The size of national income which is considered the indicator of economic
development of a nation is largely determined by the amount and quality
of entrepreneurial resource. What is produced, how much is produced
and how efficiently is produced, all depend upon the class of
entrepreneurs. A country will be able to produce a large amount of output
and generate a large national income if it possesses a large number of
entreprenrs with a modern outlook.
(ii) Entrepreneurs mobilise idle savings of the public through the issue of
shares and debentures.
(iii) Enepreneurs generate employment opportunities and thus help to reduce
unemployment problem in the country.
(iv) They also set up industries in the backward areas of the country to avail
various concessions and subsidies provided by the government. In this
way, they help to reduce regional disparities in the country.
(v) Entrepreneurs also help the nation reducing dependence on foreign
countries. [2017]

16. Labour consists of all human efforts of body or of mind which are undertaken
in the expectation of reward. Economists use the term labour in wider sense.
In wider sense, labour includes all human efforts done with a view to earn
income. Physical or mental work will be treated as labour which is undertaken
to earn income or reward. Work done simply to attain pleasure or happiness
is not labour.
Following are some suggestions which can improve the efficiency of Indian
workers :
(i) The payment of wages should be fair and prompt. Bonus (i.e., a part of
profit) must be given to workers as an incentive to hard work.
(ii) Working conditions in the factories/work places should be improved.
(iii) Social security measures such as insurance schemes, provident fund
contributions, pensions, etc., should be introduced.
(iv) Hours of work should not be more than eight hours. Other facilities like
holidays, leaves, etc., should also be provided to the workers without
further delay.
(v) Technical education facilities should be expanded to all categories
of workers. [2017]

19. Land, in economics, means not only the surface of the earth but all those
free gifts of nature, the supply of which can be regulated. Land possess the
following characteristics.
128
 MT EDUCARE LTD. X - ICSE (Economics)

(i) Free Gift of Nature : Land is a gift of nature given to man free of cost.
Man has to spend nothing to obtain it. He has to make no efforts to get it.
Rather, it existed even long before the evolution of man. All other factors
of production have to be produced at a cost.
(ii) Land is limited in supply : A peculiar feature of land is its fixed supply.
Other factors of production can be increased in supply to a greater or
lesser extent. But it is impossible to increase the supply of land.
(iii) Land is a passive factor of production : Land is passive factor of
production because it cannot produce anything by itself.
(iv) Land is Permanent : Land is not perishable but it is indestructible and,
thus it cannot go out of existence. It is not destructible. A labourer will
die one day and with him will disappear his service. A machine can get
depreciated and is used up ultimately. But land can never be destroyed.
(v) Land is immovable : Land is immovable. It cannot be transported from
one place to another, while labourer and capital can be shifted. It is
fixed and cannot move from place to place. It also fixed in the sense that
the total supply of land in a country cannot be increased or decreased.
(vi) Land varies in fertility : Fertility of land differs on different pieces of
land. All pieces of land are not equally fertile. These days fertility of soil
can be increased through the use of chemical fertilisers. [2019]

20. (i) Risk-Bearing : Risk-bearing function is most important function of an


entrepreneur. There is no other factor of production except the
entrepreneur who bears risk of the business. The risk is caused by
uncertainties attached to production, investment and profits.
(ii) Decision Making Functions : Decision making is an important function
of an entrepreneur. He has to take several decisions regarding his
business. These may be regarding the following :
(a) selection of the commodity to be produced.
(b) selection of design and quality of the product.
(c) selection of the location of the plant.
(d) decision of regarding scale of production.
(e) selection of techniques of production to be employed in the business.

Short answers :
12. (i) Giffen Goods : Giffen goods refer to those goods
on which a consumer spends a very large part
of his income. Giffen pointed out that the law
of demand did not aply in the case of English
workers.
British workers had bread as their main item
of consumption. As the price of bread went up
in the market they could not afford to purchase
as much meat (a superior item of consumption)
as before. So they substituted more bread for
meat to maintain their intake of food.In this
situation, the demand curve will have positive slope as shown in below
figure.
(ii) Loss of faith in quality : When people have no faith in the quality of the
product, the law will not apply. Any fall in the price of the commodity will
be insufficient to bring about a rise in its demand. [2015]

13. If the bus fare between two cities comes down, the demand for bus services
will increase. The demand curve of bus travel will shift to right showing
increase in demand. i.e. downward movement of the demand curve for bus.
[2013]

14. Elasticity of demand for necessities of life, such as foodgrains, medicines,


textbooks, edible oil, etc. is very low. In comparison to luxury goods, consumers
will buy almost the same quantity of a necessary commodity per unit of time
whether its price is somewhat higher or lower. Thus, their demand is inelastic.
On the other hand, demand for luxury goods (e.g., air conditioners, big-sized
colour TV sets) are elastic. When prices of such commodities rise, some people
may avoid purchasing them. Their demand will fall sharply.

18. There are some rare situations when the law of


demand does not apply. These are called exceptions
to the law.
(i) Giffen Goods : Giffen goods refer to those goods
on which a consumer spends a very large part of
his income. Giffen pointed out that the law of
demand did not aply in the case of English workers.
British workers had bread as their main item of
consumption. As the price of bread went up in the
market they could not afford to purchase as much meat (a superior item of
consumption) as before. So they substituted more bread for meat to maintain
their intake of food.In this situation, the demand curve will have positive
slope as shown in below figure.
(ii) Aricles of Distinction : This exception was first explained by the American
economist, Veblen. According to him , the demand for articles of distinction
is more when their price is high. A fall in their price may lead the rich
people to buy less because now the rich men’s desire for distinction is
not satisfied. With the fall in their price, they think, even poor people
can purchase them.
(iii) Ignorance : If consumers are ignorant about the quality of the commodity,
the law will not apply. In such cases, consumers would judge the quality
of the commodity from its price. They regard high - priced commodities
are better in quality as compared to low-priced commodities. A lower -
priced commodity is considered inferior and is therefore demanded less.
(iv) Loss of faith in quality : When people have no faith in the quality of the
product, the law will not apply. Any fall in the price of the commodity will
be insufficient to bring about a rise in its demand. [2014)

19. Price elasticity of demand means the change in the quantity demanded of a
commodity in response to change in its price. It indicates how consumers
react to changes in price. The greater the reaction, the larger will be the
elasticity; the lesser the reaction, the smaller will be the elasticity.
Percentage change in Demand for the goods
It can be measured as : Percentage change in the price of the goods

1. Normal goods are those goods the 1. Inferior goods are those goods, the
demand for which increases with demand for which falls as income of
the incre ase in income of the consumer increases
consumers.
2. Here there is a direct relationship 2. Here, there is an inverse relationship
between income and demand. between income and demand.
3. e.g. Goods like T. V., 3. Demand for unbranded clothes fall
with increase in income. Hence, they
are inferior goods.

[2015]

21. Cross elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of demand of a


commodity to a change in the price of other related commodity. That is cross
elasticity of demand measures by how much quantity demand will rise or fall
given a change in the price of another commodity.
Percentage change in demand of commodity X
Ec = Percentage change in price commodity Y

Where DQX = Change in quantity demanded of X - commodity.

22. Perfectly Elastic Supply : If there is an infinite


change in quantity supplied in response to a small
change in price, the supply of that commodity is
said to be perfectly price elastic. It is purely an
imaginary concept
Perfectly elastic supply is shown graphically in the
above Figure. PS is the perfectly elastic supply
curve which is a horizontal line. It shows that at
OP price, any quantity of the commodity can be
supplied.

27. The impact of the level of technology on supply are :


(i) If old and outdated technology is used in production process, the cost of
production will increase therefore the level of production will fall which
cause decrease in supply.
(ii) On the other hand, if the level of technology is improved, it helps to
reduce the cost of production. As result, production levels will rise which
will increase the level of supply. [2016]

28. (i) Change in stock : With the increase in the price of the commodity,
sellers are ready to sell more from their old stock of goods. On the other
hand, when the price of the commodity decreases, sellers would like to
increase their stock to avoid losses.
(ii) Profit and Loss : With the rise in prices, producers generally increase
their production and supply in view of higher profit possibilities and when
there is fall in the price, producers would produce and supply less to
avoid losses. [2017]

29. Elasticity of supply is greatly influenced by how costs of production respond to


output changes. If an increase in output by the firm in an industry causes
only a slight increase in their cost per unit or leads to decrease in cost per
unit, supply will be fairly elastic. [2017]

133

30. Perfectly elastic demand curve.


It is a situation in which a small change in price
causes an infinitely large change in amount
demanded. A small rise in price on the part of the
seller reduces the demand to zero. A small reduction
in price, on the other hand, leads to an infinitely
large increase in demand. In our real life, we do
not have any such commodity which has perfectly
elastic demand. Here, elasticity of demand is equal
to infinity and demand curve becomes parallel to
X-axis as shown in figure. [2017]

31. Complementary goods are those goods which are jointly demanded to satisfy
a particular want, e.g. pen and ink, car and petrol, etc. In such cases, there
will be an inverse relationship between the price of one commodity and the
amount demanded for the other. For example, if price of petrol goes up,
demand for cars will go down (due to fall in petrol’s demand).
Substitute goods are those goods which can be used in place of others, e.g.,
tea & coffee, Coke and Pepsi. The change in the price of tea has its effect on
coffee’s demand. The rise in price of tea will raise the demand for coffee or
vice versa. [2017]

32. Supply of a commodity depends on several factors. Important among them are
discussed below. (Write any one)
(i) Price of the Commodity : Price of a commodity is the most important
determinants of its supply. Higher the price, the larger will be the supply.
As the price rises, the producer in the expectation of earning larger
profits will increase the supply of the commodity and vice versa.
(ii) Price of other Commodities : When prices of all other commodities increase,
it becomes more profitable for the producers to produce those commodities.
Consequently, the supply of the existing commodity falls and vice versa.
(iii) Goals of the Firms : The supply of a commodity also depends upon the
goals of firms. Their goals may be profit maximization or sales
maximization. If their goal is to maximize profits, more quantity will be
supplied only at high price. But if the firm wants to maximize their sales,
more quantity will be supplied even at the same price.
(iv) Prices of factors of Production : A fall in the price of a factor of production
will reduce the cost of production which, in turn, will increase the
production and supply.If on the other hand, the price of factor of production
rises, supply will decrease due to fall in the margins of profits.
(v) State of technology : If the producers make use of improved and advance
technology in their process of production, the cost of production will come
down. Total supplies, thus, will increase. But against it, supply of goods,
using old and inferior techniques of production, will fall.
(vi) Number of Producers : If the number of firms producing a particular
commodity increases, market supply of the commodity will increase. When
existing firms of an industry are making huge profits, some new firms
may enter that industry and the total production and supply will thus
increase. On other hand, in the event of losses, some firms may leave
the industry and thus, supply will fall. [2018]

[2018]

34. Complementary goods are those goods which are jointly demanded to satisfy
a particular want, e.g. pen and ink, car and petrol, etc. In such cases, there
will be an inverse relationship between the price of one commodity and the
amount demanded for the other. For example, if price of petrol goes up,
demand for cars will go down (due to fall in petrol’s demand). [2018]

35. Normal goods are those goods the demand for which increases with the
increase in income of the consumer.
For example, demand for milk, rice increases with an increase in the income
of the consumer. [2019]

36. Following are the circumstances under which the law of supply does not
apply.
(i) In case of agricultural goods : The supply of agricultural goods depends
more on natural factors such as drought, floods, natural calamities etc.
and less on their prices.
(ii) In case of perishable goods : The supply of perishable goods like milk,
vegetables, fish, eggs, etc. is also not affected by their prices. Sellers
cannot hold these goods for long .
(iii) Goods of Auction : The law does not apply in case of goods of auction
because their supply is always limited and fixed which cannnot be changed
at all.
(iv) In case of rare goods : Artistic goods of high quality and poems written by
top - class poets fall uder this category. Their supply cannot be increased
even when their price rise.
(v) Disposal of old Stock : When sellers intend to clear off their old stock of
goods, they would like to sell more goods by reducing their prices.
[2019]

37. Income effect here implies effect of change in


consumer’s real income resulting from change in
the price of a commodity on his demand. As the
price of a commodity decreases, the real income
of the consumer (i.e. income in terms of goods
and services) increases. When price of a
commodity falls, consumer has to spend less on
purchase of that commodity. With money thus
saved, a consumer can buy more quantity of that
commodity. Conversely, his real income would

X - ICSE (Economics)  MT EDUCARE LTD.

fall in case of rise in prices. Hence, he will be in a position to buy less of the
commodity when its prices rises. [2019]

38. Supply means the quantity offered for sale at a particular price and time by
the producer. Producers may offer different quantities of a commodity for sale
at different prices.Supply can also be defined as a schedule of quantities that
will be offered for sale at various prices. [2019]

Long answers :
1. The degree of responsiveness of quantity demanded due to changes in price
of the commodity is known as price elasticity of Demand.
Four Factors Affecting Price Elasticity of Demand
(i) Nature of the Goods : More necessary the good for a consumer, less
elastic is the demand for the good. It is because that it is difficult to give
up the consumption of a necessary good.
(ii) Number of substitutes : More the number of close substitutes of a good
available in the market. higher is the price elasticity of that good. It is
because that a consumer can easily shift from one substitute to another
in case of a price change.
(iii) Number of uses : More the number of uses of a good, more likely is the
demand of that good price elastic.
(iv) Proportion of Income Spent : The demand of a good will be price elastic
if proportion of income spent on that good is large. It is because that total
expenditure on the good changes considerably. [2015]

11. Increase in demand of a good is defined as rise in its demand due to change
in the factor/factors other than the own price of the good.
Four Factors affecting Price elasticity of demand
1. Nature of the Goods : More necessary the good for a consumer, less
elastic is the demand for the good. It is because that it is difficult to give
up the consumption of a necessary good.
2. Number of substitutes : More the number of close substitutes of a good
available in the market, higher is the price elasticity of that good. It is
because that a consumer can easily shift from one substitute to another
in case of a price change.
3. Number of users : More the number of uses of a good, more likely is the
demand of that good price elastic.
4. Proportion of Income Spent : The demand of a good will be price elastic
if proportion of income spent on that good is large. It is because that total
expenditure on the good changes considerably. [2013]

12. The term supply refers to the quantity of a good that a firm is willing to supply
at a particular price during a period of time.
According to the law of supply, other things being equal, the quantity supplied
of the commodity varies directly with the price. In other words, when price of
a commodity rises, supply rises and when price falls, supply also falls,
Supply Schedule
A Supply schedule shows various quantities of a commodity that can be offered
for sale at different prices during a given period of time.
136
 MT EDUCARE LTD. X - ICSE (Economics)

(i)Individual supply schedule shows the different quantities of a commodity


that an individual firm or producer is prepared to sell at various prices.
The law of supply can be explained with the help of individual supply schedule.
HYPOTHETICAL INDIVIDUAL SUPPLY SCHEDULE FOR COMMODITY X.
Price per Quantity supplied of
unit of X X per month.
(`) (Units)
2 20
3 40
4 60
5 80

The hypothetical individual supply schedule of commodity X is given in


the table. It is clear from the above individual supply schedule that more
and more quantity of commodity X is being offered for sale by the firm as
the price of the commodity increases. The firm is willing to supply 20
units of products X per month when the product price is Rs.2 per unit.
When the price rises to Rs 3 per unit, it is now willing to sell 40.
(ii) Supply curve : Supply curve is a graphical representation of a supply
schedule. Cuve SS reflects the individual supply curve. Supply curve has
a positive slope. i. e., it moves upward from left to right. It shows that
more quantity will be supplied at higher prices and vice versa. The various
points on the supply curve (such a, b, c, d, and e) represent different
possible price quantity relationships.
(iii)) Assumptions : The phrase ‘other things being equal’ as used in the law
of supply indicates its assumptions. The main assumptions of the law are
as follows:-
(1) Price of other related goods should not change.
(2) Technology of production should not change.
(3) Cost of factors of production should remain the same.
(4) Goal (objectives) of the firm should not change.
(5) Taxation policy of the firm should not change.
(6) Producer do not expect any change in the price of the commodity in
near future. [2013, 2017]

13. Supply refers to quantity of a commodity that a firm is willing to offer for sale
at a given price during a given period of time. Three Reasons for the Rightward
shift of the supply curve When supply of a product in the market increases,
the supply curve shifts to the right. The right-ward shift is caused by the
following factors :
(i) When price of factors of production fall, cost of production falls and profit
margin rises. It increase the supply.
(ii) The use of advanced and improved technology reduces cost of production
and raises the profit margin. As a result, supply curve shifts to the right.
(iii) Supply curve shifts to the right when the number of firms producing a

14. ES =  : When there is an infinite supply at a particular


price and the supply becomes zero with a slight fall in
price, then the supply of such a commodity is said to be
perfectly elastic. In such a case E p = 0 and the supply
curve is a horizontal straight line parallel to the X-axis,
as shown in the following diagram.
Quantity supplied can be OM, OQ or ON at the same prices
of OP.

ES, > 1 : When percentage change in quantity supplied


is more than the percentage change in price, then supply
for such a commodity is said to be highly elastic. In such
a case, Ep > 1 and the supply curve has an intercept on

Quantity supplied rises from OM to ON when price
increases from OP to OP1. As MN is proportionately more
than PP1, Ep >1. [2014]

16. When supply of a commodity changes due to change in any factor other than
the own price of the commodity, it is known as 'change in supply'. Graphically
called shift in supply curve.
Three Determinants of Leftward Shift of Supply Curve
(i) Rise in price of Related Product : If the price of related product increases,
then the supply of the given commodity will fall. Then supply curve of the
given product shifts to the left.
(ii) Increase in Prices of Factors of Production : Other things being equal,
when prices of factors of production increase, cost of production increases.
Accordingly, producers are willing to supply less at the existing price.
This supply curve shifts to the left.
(iii) Increase in Taxes : When taxes are raised by the government, then the
cost of product is increases. Therefore supply decreases and the supply
curve shifts to the left. [2015]

17. Demand means the quantity of a commodity or service that a consumer is


willing to buy at a given price and at a given time.
The two factors which determine demand are :
(i) Population : Increase in population increases the demand or vice versa.
Market demand for so many commodities has increased in India due to
this factor. Several multinational companies are entering the Indian
market due to its large size. Like the size of population, its composition
also affects the demand. Composition of population means the distribution
of population on the basis of sex, age, etc. An increase in female population
would increase the demand for cosmetics, sarees, etc.
(ii) Season and Weather : The seasonal and weather conditions also have
effect on consumer’s demand. For example, demand for woollen clothes
goes up during winter. Fans, coolers etc. are demanded more during
summer.
[2016]

18. Increase in supply


Increase in supply occurs when the producers are
willing to supply more at the same price, due to
change in other factors.
Price Quantity supplied
(Rs per Unit) (Units)
5 100
5 120
The price of a commodity remains fixed at Rs 5 per
unit but its quantity supplied increases from 100
units to 120 units.
In this case, the supply curve shifts to the right showing increase in supply.
In the fig, original price of the commodity is OP at which the producer wishes
to supply OS quantity of the commodity. Under the influence of other factors,
the supply curves shifts rightward to take new position as S 1S1. This supply
curve shows that the producer is prepared to sell more quantity (i.e., OQ 1
instead of OQ) at the same original price of OP.

5 per unit. Like increase in supply, decrease in supply also is the result of
change in factors other than the price of the commodity.
At original price of OP, the producer supplies OQ quantity of the commodity.
When the supply curve shifts from its original position (i.e. SS) upwards to the
left and takes the position of S1S1, he is now willing to supply lesser quanity
(i.e. OQ1) at the same price (OP). The supply has fallen by Q1Q. [2016]

19. Meaning : Price elasticity of supply is measure of the degree of of reposiveness


of quantity supply to changes in the product's own price.
The three factors that determine elasticity of supply :
(i) Possibility of shifting from production : The size or degree of reponse
depends on how easily producers can shift from the production of other
products to the one whose price has risen. It the producers can shift
easily from one production to another, the supply would be more place
elastic. For example, if agricultural land and labour can readily be shifted
from one crop another, the supply of any one crop will be more elastic
than if they cannot be easily shfited.
(ii) Length of Time : Price elasticity of supply also depends upon the length
of time for response. It may be difficult to change quantities supplied in
few weeks or months in response to price change but easy to do so over a
period of year. Therefore, supply tends to be relatively inelastic in the
short-run and relatively elastic in the long-run.
(iii) Behaviour of cost of Production : Elasticity of supply is greatly influenced by
how cost of production respond to output changes. If an increase in output
by the firms in an industry causes only a slight increase in their cost per
unit or leads to decrease in cost per unit supply leads to a large increase in
cost of production, the supply would be relatively inelastic. [2016]

20. Relatively Inelastic Demand : When a large


change in price does not bring about much
change in the demand, the demand is said to
be inelastic. In this situation, percentage change
in demand is less than the percentage change
in price. For example, a fall in price by 10 per
cent leads to a rise in demand by only 5 per
cent. Such a situation will arise when the
demand for commodity is very urgent (i.e., when
its consumption cannot be postponed or the
expenditure on it is very small or its close
140
 MT EDUCARE LTD. X - ICSE (Economics)

substitutes are not available in the market. The numerical value of price
elasticity here will be less than unity (i.e. E d < 1). [2018]

21. (i) Demand means the quantity of a commodity or service that a consumer
is willing to buy at a given price and at a given time.
(ii) Some of the important determinants of individual demand are :- (Write
any three)
(a) Price of the Commodity : Of all the factors affecting demand, price is
the most important factor. Ordinarily, demand for a commodity
increases when its price falls and decreases when price rises. For
example, a consumer’s demand for mango is just 1 kg when it is priced
at Rs. 40 per kg and rises to 2 kg when its price falls to Rs. 30 per kg.
(b) Price of Related Goods : The demand for a commodity depends not
only on its own price but also on the prices of related goods. If a
change in the price of one good affects the demand for another good,
it is called cross demand. Related goods may be in the form of
substitutes and complementary.
(1) Substitute goods are those goods which can be used in place of
others, e.g., tea & coffee, Coke and Pepsi. The change in the
price of tea has its effect on coffee’s demand. The rise in price of
tea will raise the demand for coffee or vice versa.
(2) Complementary goods are those goods which are jointly
demanded to satisfy a particular want, e.g. pen and ink, car and
petrol, etc. In such cases, there will be an inverse relationship
between the price of one commodity and the amount demanded
for the other. For example, if price of petrol goes up, demand for
cars will go down (due to fall in petrol’s demand).
(c) Income of the consumer : Other things being equal, generally, there
is a direct relationship between the consumer’s income and the
demand for a commodity. However, the effect of change in income on
consumer’s demand depends upon the nature of the commodity. We
may distinguish between normal goods and inferior goods.
(1) Normal goods : Normal goods are those goods, the demand for
which increases with the increase in income of the consumer.
For instance, a consumer increases his demand for milk, clothes,
furniture, refridgerators and TV sets as his income increases.
(2) Inferior goods : Inferior goods are those goods, the demand for
which falls as income of the consumer increases. Thus, there is
an inverse relationship between income of the consumer and
the amount demanded of inferior goods. For example, as the
income of household rises, it may shift its consumption from
unbranded clothes to branded ones.
(d) Tastes and Preferences : The amount demanded of a commodity
also depends on consumer’s tastes and preferences. When we begin
to like certain commodities, their demand will increase.
(e) Consumer credit facility : If credit facilities are provided at low rates
of interest by the banks, households would be encouraged to buy more
than what they would buy in their absence. For instance, demand for
cars will increase if car loans from banks are easily and cheaply available.
141
X - ICSE (Economics)  MT EDUCARE LTD.

(iii) Aricles of Distinction : This exception was first explained by the American
economist, Veblen. According to him , the demand for articles of distinction
is more when their price is high. A fall in their price may lead the rich
people to buy less because now the rich men’s desire for distinction is
not satisfied. With the fall in their price, they think, even poor people
can purchase them. (2018]

22. (i) Relatively Elastic Supply : Supply of a commodity will be said to be


elastic, if the percentage change in quantity supplied exceeds the
percentage change in price. Supply curve is sterp.

elasticity here will be less than unity (i.e. E d < 1). [2019]

23. (i) The law of demand states ‘other things being equal demand is inversely
proportional to price i.e. when price rises, demand falls and when price
falls demand rises’.’
Assumptions of the law
In the statement of law, the phrase ‘other things being equal’ has been
used. By ‘other things’, we mean factors other than price which influence
the demand. They are:-
(i) There should be no change in consumer’s income during the period
of consumption.
(ii) There should not be any change in the price of related goods
(i. e. substitute or complementary goods)
(iii) There should be no change in consumers’ taste and habits.
(iv) Consumers do not expect any change in the price of the commodity
in the near future.
(v) No change in population.

Demand Schedule.
Demand schedule shows different quantities of a commodity demanded
(per period of time) at different prices (per unit of the commodity).
The following table shows that the household will demand more sugar at
a lower price, other things being equal. For instance, when price is ` 20
per kg, he demands only 1 kg of sugar but, at ` 19, he is prepared to buy
2 kg, at ` 18 per kg, 3kg sugar and so on. This shows that price and
demand are inversely related.

Demand Curve

When price falls from Rs. 20 to Rs. 19, demand rises form 1 to 2 kg. of sugar.

(ii) Market demand refers to the total quantity of a commodity that all the
households buy at a particular price during a period of time. Market
demand for a commodity also depends on the following factors.
(i) Population : Increase in population increases the demand or vice
versa. Market demand for so many commodities has increased in
India due to this factor. Composition also affects the demand. An
increase in female population would increase the demand for
cosmetics, sarees, etc.
(ii) Season and Weather : The seasonal and weather conditions also
have effect on consumer’s demand. For example, demand for woollen
clothes goes up during winter. Fans, coolers etc. are demanded more
during summer.
(iii) Government policy : Government policy of a country can also affect
the demand for a particular commodity or commodities. It may reduce
the demand for a commodity by imposing a tax on it or increase the
demand by lowering tax on it or increase the demand by lowering its
price through subsidies.
143

(iv) State of Business : The prevailing business conditions in a country


also affect the level of demand. For example, during boom periods,
market demand will increase and during period of depression market
demand will fall.
(v) Distribution of income : If there are more poor people, the demand
for necessities of life will be more. Increase in the percentage of rich
people will increase the demand for luxury goods. [2019]

Short answers :
6. (i) Distribution of National Income : Money facilitates the distribution of
national income among people. Total output of a country is jointly produced
by factors of production. Money helps in the distribution of national product
in the form of rent, wages, interest and profits.
(ii) Basis of Credit : In the modern economic system, credit plays a key role
and money constitutes the basis of credit. For example, credit instruments
like cheques, drafts, bills of exchange, etc., cannot be used without the
existence of money.
(iii) Productivity of Capital : Money also increases the productivity of capital
as it is most liquid type of capital. It can be put to any use. It is because of
the liquidity of money that capital can be easily transferred from less
productive uses to more productive uses.
(iv) Miscellaneous Functions : First, money is a bearer of options. Every
person is free to hold wealth in the form of money and spend it as he
desires, depending upon the circumstances. Secondly, money is a
guarantor of solvency. If an individual or a business firm has liquid wealth
in the form of money, his capacity to pay back the debt is guaranteed.
[2014, 2017]

7. Banks also perform certain agency functions for and on behalf of their customers :
(i) Collection and Making Payments for Credit Instruments : Bank collect
or make payment for bills, cheques, promissory notes. For these services
, some charges are usually made by the banks.
(ii) Collection of Dividends on Shares : Bank collect dividends on shares
and interest on debentures of their customers.
(iii) Purchase and Sale of Securities : Banks undertake purchase and sale
of various securities like shares, stocks, bonds, debentures, etc., on
behalf of their customers.
(iv) Trustee and Executor : Banks preserve the wills of their customers and
execute them after their death.
(v) Transfer of Funds : Banks help their customers in transferring funds
from one place to another through cheques, drafts, etc.

14. Tax Fee


1. Tax is a compulsory contribution 1. A fee is a payment charged by the
to be paid by every citizen upon government to bear the cost of
whom it is imposed. administrative services rendered
primarily in the public interest but
conferring special benefit to the
individual.
2. A tax is paid by every one and 2. Fees are to be paid only by those
there is no quid pro quo. who receive special benefits from
the services rendered by the
government.

[2014]

22. Direct taxes refer to those taxes which are paid by those on whom they are
legally imposed. Such a tax is not transferable. In case of such kind of taxes,
the impact of tax (i.e., the immediate money burden or taxing point), and its
incidence (i.e., the ultimate money burden), falls on the same person. Income
tax (other than agricultural income), wealth tax, gift tax, estate duty are
important examples of direct taxes in India.
[2016]

24. Under the proportional tax system, all incomes are taxed at a uniform rate.
In other words, a proportional tax is one in which the rate of tax remains the
same, all tax payers pay an equal proportion of income.
A tax is said to be progressive when the rate of taxes increases as the tax
payer’s income increases. [2017]

26. Redeemable debt is that which is repayable by the government after a fixed
period of time. The interest on this loan is paid by the government regularly.
When the debt matures, the government pays back the principal amount to
lenders. For the repayment of principal, either the government creates a
fund in which a fixed amount is deposited every year or it raises the amount
through taxation. Irredeemable debt is that whose principal amount is not
refunded by the government. However, interest is paid regularly on such
loans for the period of its duration. [2015]

27. During barter system, value of commodities was expressed in terms of other
commodities. This led to the argument that how many units of one commodity
can be exchanged for the other. In other words, there was a confusion about
the proportion in which two goods can be exchanged for each other. Today, as
value of every commodity is measured in terms of money, it is easy to carry
out trade. [2013]

30. When money is generally accepted as a medium of exchange and a unit of


value, it naturally becomes the unit in terms of which deferred or future
payments are expressed. Money has successfully performed the function of a
standard of deferred payments because, firstly, its value is relatively more
stable than that of other commodities. Secondly, the element of durability is
146
 MT EDUCARE LTD. X - ICSE (Economics)

higher as compared to other commodities and finally, it possesses the quality


of general acceptability. [2013, 2017]

[2013, 2017]

32. Banking Services, now-a-days, have become most essential for all types of people
whether individuals or business. The main advantages of a bank account are :
(i) It helps to develop the habit of savings among the people.
(ii) Payments through cheques are always easier, safer and cheaper.
(iii) The businessmen can get their bills of exchange discounted easily, if
they have an account with the bank.
(iv) A customer can also avail overdraft facilities from the bank in times of
financial crisis. [2013]

33. Indirect taxes are regressive as they fall indiscriminately on all income groups.
They can be made progressive by levying higher taxes on luxurious commodities
and lower taxes on necessities. [2013]

34. Impact of taxes means the immediate burden of the tax and the incidence of
tax is the ultimate burden of the tax. [2013]

35. Public debt refers to the loans raised by a government within or outside the
country. Every government has to borrow when its expenditure exceeds its
revenue. The borrowing or taking loans by the government is called public debt.
Findly Shirras defines public debt as “National debt is a debt which a state
owes to its own subjects or to the nationals of other countries”. [2013]

36. (a) Voluntary debt is a debt which is taken from the people by the government
on a voluntary basis. In case of voluntary loans, people voluntarily and
willingly subscribe to government loans. On the other hand, compulsory
debts are those loans which are forcibly taken from the people by the
government. When the government exercises its power or pressure for
getting loans, such loans are known as compulsory loans.
(b) A tax will be regressive when the rates of tax decrease as the tax base
(income) increases. Under the regressive taxation, the total amount of
147
X - ICSE (Economics)  MT EDUCARE LTD.

tax increases on a higher income in the absolute sense, but in the relative
sense, the tax rate declines on a higher income. Hence, relatively a
heavier burden falls upon the poor than on the rich. Therefore, regressive
taxes are unjust and inequitable. They do not satisfy the canon of equity.
They tend to promote inequalities of income in the society.
Under this system, the rate of taxes increases upto a certain limit but
after that, a uniform rate is charged. The result of this tax is that the
higher income groups make less sacrifice than the lower income groups.
[2013]

37. A tax is compulsory payment imposed on the persons or companies by the


governments to meet the expenditure incurred on providing common benefits
to the people.
Merits of direct taxes.
(i) Economy : Direct taxes are economical in the sense that the cost of collection
of these taxes is relatively low, because the same officers who assess small
income or properties can also assess large income or properties.
(ii) Equity : Direct taxes are based on the principle of ability to pay. They fall
more heavily on the rich than on the poor. So the burden of a direct tax is
equitably distributed on different people and institutions.
(iii) Certainty : Direct taxes are certain. The tax-payer knows how much tax
is due from him and so, he can adjust his income and expenditure. The
government also knows fairly well the amount of revenues coming to it
by way of direct taxes and can adjusts its income and expenditure.
(iv) Elasticity : Another merit of direct taxes is that they are based on the
canon of elasticity. These taxes are elastic in nature as the government
revenue can be increased by raising the tax rates in times of crisis.
(v) Civic Consciousness : Direct taxes inculcate a spirit of civic responsibility
amongst the tax-payers. Since the tax-payers provide the funds from
their own pockets to the government, they take keen interest in seeing
that these funds are properly utilised. This public awareness plays an
important role in checking the wastage of public expenditure.
Demerits of direct taxes.
(i) Unpopular : Since these taxes are directly imposed on people, they cannot
be shifted on to others. They are painful to the tax-payers. They are not
popular among the people and, therefore, are generally opposed by the
tax-payers.
(ii) Inconvenience : The main drawback of direct taxes is that they cause a
lot of inconvenience to the tax-payers. The tax-payers have to maintain
accounts to the satisfaction of tax authorities and have to submit the
statement of their income along with the sources of income from which
it is derived.
(iii) Possibility of Evasion : There is always a great possibility of tax evasion
as these taxes are calculated on the basis of honesty of tax-payers.
Businessmen usually adopt wrong practices and do not show their correct
income to the tax authorities.
(iv) Uneconomical : Direct taxes are often expensive to collect. The cost of
collection is particularly heavy when the number of tax-payers is large
and each pays only a small amount of tax.
148
 MT EDUCARE LTD. X - ICSE (Economics)

(v) Arbitrary : It is argued that the direct taxes are arbitrary. The rate of
taxes depends upon whims of taxation authority and not on the ability to
pay.
(vi) Narrow in scope : Direct taxes are generally imposed on the rich people.
Low income group people cannot be approached through these taxes.

[2014]

39. The reasons responsible for the tendency of increasing volume of expenditure
under the following three heads are :
(a) Political Causes
(i) Growth of democracy : The recent growth of democracy and socialism
everywhere in the world has caused public expenditure to increase
very much. Expenditure on elections and by - elections is increasing.
Number of ministers and executive officers has also been increased.
Further, the ruling party has to fulfil its promises and launch new
programmes to persuade public opinion in its favour.
(ii) Increase in defense expenditure : International political situation is
uncertain and insecure. People are always afraid of a war. Hence,
every nation must be strong enough to protect itself to the extent
possible for it.
(b) Social Causes
(i) Population Growth : With the increase of population, the
responsibilities of the state also increase which consequently leads
to the increase in public expenditure.
(ii) Social Services : The generalised social services, e. g., education,
public health, water supply and sanitation facilities etc., which are
considered as the duty of the sate has been increasing. New
departments like Child welfare, Women welfare, Labour welfare,
etc., have been estabilised. All this have led to growth of public
expenditure.
(iii) Social Security Measures : Government is now always eager to raise
the standard of living of people in lower income groups. They are
spending huge amounts for providing benefits such as old - age
149
X - ICSE (Economics)  MT EDUCARE LTD.

pension, sickness benefits, accident benefits, free education and


medical services to industrial workers etc.
(c) Economic Causes
(i) Rise in Prices : There has been a gradual increase in the price level
in almost every country of the world and the governments have to
spend more money for the same amount of goods and services that
they desire, and to increase the salaries and dearness allowance of
government employees.
(ii) Growth of Public Sector : The public sector has been increasing in
capitalist and mixed economies which has led to increase in public
expenditure.
(iii) Economic Assistance to Private Sector : States also give economic
assistance to various industries which have undertaken the
programmes of planned development. This has also increased the
public expenditure to great extent.
(iv) Development Programmes : Urbanisation has led to increase in
government expenditures on civil administration, education, public
health, water supply, parks, etc. [2014, 2016, 2019]

40. Government may borrow from international institutions like IMF, World Bank,
foreign governments etc. [2014, 2018]

41. Limited legal tender : Limited legal tender money refers to that money which
can be accepted only up to a certain limit. For example, in India, coins of
smaller denominations (upto 25 paise coins) are legal tender only upto payment
of Rs. 25. If the total payment exceeds Rs.25, the seller (or creditor) can
refuse to accept it.
Unlimited Legal Tender : Unlimited legal tender money refers to that money
which people are legally bound to accept it as a means of payment. In India,
all coins of 50 paise and above and all currency notes are unlimited legal
tender money. [2014]

42. As banker to the government, it performs the following functions :


(i) It receives deposits from the government and collect cheques and drafts
deposited in the government account.
(ii) It makes purchases and sales of government securities.
(iii) It provides cash to the government as required for payment of salaries
and wages to their staff and other cash disbursements.
(iv) It makes payments on behalf of the government.
(v) It also advances short term loans to the government to meet the deficit
in its budget.
(vi) It supplies foreign exchange to the government for paying external debt
or making other payments. [2014]

43. Open market operations refer to the buying and selling of government securities
by the central bank from/to the public and banks. When the central bank
intends to contract credit during inflation, it sells government securities
which are usually purchased either by commercial banks or by their customers.
Consequently, cash reserves with the banks are reduced and so does their
150
 MT EDUCARE LTD. X - ICSE (Economics)

lending power. On the other hand, when the bank desires to expand credit
during deflation in the economy, it starts purchasing such securities. Therefore,
the policy of open market operation brings about a change in the total volume
of credit by the commercial banks. [2014]

44. The exchange of goods and services for goods is known as barter system.The
following difficulties were involved in the barter system of exchange :
(i) Lack of Double Coincidence of Wants : Double coincidence of wants
means the simultaneous fulfillment of mutual wants by buyers and
sellers. It is necessary for a person who wishes to trade his good or
service to find some other person who is not only willing to buy his good
or service, but also possesses that good which the former wants.
(ii) Lack of Common Measure of Value : Even if the two persons who want
each other's goods meet by coincidence, the problem arises as to the
proportion in which the two goods should be exchanged. The value of a
commodity or services means the amount of other goods and services it
can be exchanged for, in the market. In the absence of a common measure
of value, trade was difficult to be carried out.
(iii) Lack of Divisibility : Another difficulty of barter system relates to the
fact that all goods cannot be divided and subdivided. In the absence of a
common medium of exchange, a problem arises when a big indivisible
commodity is to be exchanged for a smaller commodity. For example, if
the price of a horse is equal to five sheep, then a person having a sheep
cannot exchange it for the horse because it is not possible to divide the
horse into small pieces.
(iv) Problem of Storing Wealth : Under barter system, it is difficult to store
value. In the absence of money, the individuals have to store wealth in
the form of goods like horses, shoes, wheat, rice, etc. The value of stored
commodities may change in the due course of time. These goods may
perish after some time. Secondly, it is very expensive to store specific
goods for a long time.
(v) Lack of Standard of Deferred (Future) Payments : Another drawback of
barter system is that it lacks a standard of deferred payments. So, credit
transactions requiring future payments cannot take place smoothly under
barter trading.
There are three main problems in this context. These are :
(a) It may create controversy regarding the quality of goods or services
to be repaid in future.
(b) The two parties may be unable to agree on the specific goods to be
used for repayment.
(c) Both parties run the risk that the value of goods to be repaid may
increase or decrease in future. [2015]

46. Direct taxes are progressive as they depend upon ability to pay. More the
ability to pay, more the taxes, less the ability to pay, less the taxes. In this
way, they help to reduce income inequality. [2015]

47. Indirect tax refers to that tax which is imposed on one person but is paid
partly or wholly by another. Customs and excise duties are the important
sources of revenue from indirect taxes in India. Thus, the impact and the
incidence of these taxes are on different persons. For example, the impact of
sugar excise duty is on the producer, but when he realises the tax amount
from the consumer by raising the price of sugar, the incidence will be on the
consumer. [2015]

(b) Under this system, the rate of taxes increases upto a certain limit but
after that, a uniform rate is charged. The result of this tax is that the
higher income groups make less sacrifice than the lower income groups.
[2016, 2017]

50. The bank rate is the rate at which a central bank lends money to member
commercial banks against approved securities or eligible bills of exchange. A
change in the bank rate leads to change in other interest rates prevailing in
the market. In order to control the volume of credit (in the situation of inflation)
central bank raises its bank rate. It will increase the cost of borrowing by
banks. An increase in the bank rate will then cause the banks to raise the
rates of interest at which they lend. This will discourage businessmen and
others to borrow from them, leading to reduction in the volume of credit.
[2016]

51. The government resorts to so many means of revenue just to meet out the
expenditures. The volume of public expenditure is increasing day by day as
the states are assuming wider area of responsibilities. [2017]

52. Unproductive loans refer to those loans which are incurred on those projects
which do not yield any income. For example, loans taken by the government
to finance a war and for covering the budgetary deficit are unproductive loans.
Such loans do not add to the productive capacity of the economy. Unproductive
loans are considered as a dead weight upon the government. [2017]

53. Two sources of revenue for the government are :


(i) Tax revenue : Tax is a compulsory payment imposed on the person or
companies by the government to meet the expenditure incurred on
providing common benefits to the people.
(ii) Non-Tax revenue : Revenue to the government other than taxes is called
non tax revenue. E.g. commercial revenues, administrative revenue etc.

54. Debt is said to be productive when it is used to finance a project which brings
revenue to the government, for example, loans used for the construction of
railways, irrigation and power projects and for the establishment of heavy
industries such as iron and steel, cement, fertilisers, etc. The income earned
from these projects is enough to pay the interest of the loan along with the
principal. Thus, productive loans should not be considered as a burden on the
government. [2018]

55. By debt trap we mean a situation where the government has to borrow for the
purpose of meeting the interest obligations on old debt. It is a situation in
which a debt is difficult or impossible to repay typically because interest
payments prevent repayment of the principal. India has virtually caught in a
debt trap. About 60 per cent of total amount of external debt is required to
spend on debt services. [2018]

56. Near money means those assests which are highly liquid, which are not cash
but can be converted into cash. Examples are bank draft, bills of exchange.
[2018]

57. By nationalisation, we mean the taking over by the government the ownership
and management of the commercial banks. The following were the main
objectives behind the nationalisation of the commercial banks in India :
(i) To mobilize national savings and to channelise them into productive
purposes.
(ii) To prevent the use of bank funds for anti-social activities.
(iii) To generate public confidence in banking system of the country.
(iv) To prevent concentration of economic power in a few hands.
(v) To expand banking facilities in the country.
(vi) To provide more credit to the priority sectors like agriculture, small scale
industries, etc. [2018]

58. The central bank has the sole monopoly to issue currency notes. Commercial
banks cannot issue currency notes. Currency notes and coins issued by the
central bank are the legal tender money. Legal tender money is one which
every individual is bound to accept by law in exchange for goods and services
and the discharge of debts.
However, the monopoly of central bank to issue the currency notes may be
partial in certain countries. For example, in India, one rupee notes are issued
by the government and all other notes are issued by the Reserve Bank of India.
The main reasons for giving the monopoly right of note-issue to the central
bank are:
(i) It brings uniformity in note circulation.
(ii) It gives distinctive prestige to the note-issue. As a result, people develop
faith in the economy.
(iii) It enables the government to have supervision and control over the supply
of money in the country.
(iv) It enables the central bank to exercise the control over the creation of
credit by the commercial banks. [2018]

59. (i) Economy : Direct taxes are economical in the sense that the cost of
collection of these taxes is relatively low, because the same officers who
assess small income or properties can also assess large income or
properties.
(ii) Equity : Direct taxes are based on the principle of ability to pay. They fall
more heavily on the rich than on the poor. So the burden of a direct tax is
equitably distributed on different people and institutions.
(iii) Certainty : Direct taxes are certain. The tax-payer knows how much tax
is due from him and so, he can adjust his income and expenditure. The
government also knows fairly well the amount of revenues coming to it
by way of direct taxes and can adjusts its income and expenditure.
(iv) Elasticity : Another merit of direct taxes is that they are based on the
canon of elasticity. These taxes are elastic in nature as the government
revenue can be increased by raising the tax rates in times of crisis.
(v) Civic Consciousness : Direct taxes inculcate a spirit of civic responsibility
amongst the tax-payers. Since the tax-payers provide the funds from
their own pockets to the government, they take keen interest in seeing
that these funds are properly utilised. This public awareness plays an
important role in checking the wastage of public expenditure. [2019]

60. Under this system, the rate of taxes increases upto a certain limit but after
that, a uniform rate is charged. The result of this tax is that the higher
income groups make less sacrifice than the lower income groups. [2019]

61. Overdraft facility is the most common way of lending. Under it, the borrower
is allowed to overdraw his current account balance. Overdraft is a temporary
facility. [2019]

Long answers :
1. (i) Internal debt is that debt which is raised by the government from
individuals and institution, etc., within the country. In the case of external
debt, the government borrows from persons, institutions or governments
of the foreign countries. Internal debt is taken mainly for internal purposes
as financing of development expenditure within the country while external
debt is incurred both for development purposes and for meeting the balance
of payment deficits.
(ii) Debt is said to be productive when it is used to finance a project which
brings revenue to the government, for example, loans used for the
construction of railways, irrigation and power projects and for the
establishment of heavy industries such as iron and steel, cement,
fertilisers, etc. The income earned from these projects is enough to pay
the interest of the loan along with the principal. Thus, productive loans
should not be considered as a burden on the government. On the other
hand, unproductive loans refer to those loans which are incurred on
those projects which do not yield any income. For example, loans taken
by the government to finance a war and for covering the budgetary deficit
are unproductive loans. Such loans do not add to the productive capacity
of the economy. Unproductive loans are considered as a dead weight
upon the government. [2016]

4. The methods used by the central bank to influence the total volume of credit
in the banking system, without any regard for the use to which it is put, are
called quantitative method of credit control. They are -
Bank Rate.
The bank rate is the rate at which a central bank lends money to member
commercial banks against approved securities or eligible bills of exchange. A
change in the bank rate leads to change in other interest rates prevailing in
the market. In order to control the volume of credit (in the situation of inflation)
central bank raises its bank rate. It will increase the cost of borrowing by
banks. An increase in the bank rate will then cause the banks to raise the
rates of interest at which they lend. This will discourage businessmen and
others to borrow from them, leading to reduction in the volume of credit.
Open market operations.
Open market operations refer to the buying and selling of government securities
by the central bank from/to the public and banks. When the central bank
intends to contract credit during inflation, it sells government securities
which are usually purchased either by commercial banks or by their customers.
Consequently, cash reserves with the banks are reduced and so does their
lending power. On the other hand, when the bank desires to expand credit
during deflation in the economy, it starts purchasing such securities. Therefore,
the policy of open market operation brings about a change in the total volume
of credit by the commercial banks.
Cash Reserve Ratio.
Commercial banks are required under law to keep with central bank a
minimum percentage or proportion of their deposits as cash reserves. This is
called Cash Reserve Ratio. RBI does not pay interest on funds set aside for
CRR requirement. When credit is to be contracted, central bank can increase
this ratio and thereby cash resources of the banks can be reduced and banks
are forced to contract credit. During inflation, RBI increases the CRR to
contract credit and during deflation RBI decreases the CRR to increase the
supply of money in the economy.
Statutory Liquidity Ratio.
Under SLR, banks are required to keep a specified percentage of their demand
and time deposits. The minimum cash reserves to be kept by thebank with it
is known as statutory liquidity ratio. It (SLR) comprises (a) excess reserves (b)
government and other approved securities (securities whose payment is
guaranteed by the government) and (c) current account balances with other
banks.
India's central bank (the RBI) is empowered to vary this ratio of the minimum
cash reserves in the range of 25 per cent to 40 per cent. When the central
bank has to contract credit, it increases the statutory liquidity ratio. Increase
in SLR means larger minimum cash reserves with the commercial banks and
less is left for lending. On the other hand, when SLR is reduced, banks now
keep less cash reserves with them which raises their lending power.

7. Quantitative Methods
1. Nature : These methods influence the total volume of credit without
differentiating between essential and non-essential uses of credit. These
methods are mostly indirect and impersonal.
2. Effect : These methods affect the lenders.
3. Methods : These methods include
(a) Bank Rate
(b) Open Market Operation
(c) Cash Reserve Ratio
(d) Statutory Liquidity Ratio
Qualitative Methods
1. Nature : These methods are discriminatory in nature in the sense that
they differentiate between essential and non- essential uses of the credit.
These methods are more direct.
2. Effect : These methods affect both the lenders as well as the borrowers.
3. Methods : These methods include
(a) Margin Requirements
(b) Moral Suasion
(c) Rationing of Credit. [2014]

14. Central bank acts as the banker to the banks in four ways : (a) custodian of
the cash reserves of the commercial bank (b) as lender of the last resort (c)
as clearing agent and (d) as supervisor.
(a) As a custodian of the cash reserves of the commercial banks, the
central bank maintain the cash reserves of the commercial banks. Every
commercial bank has to keep a certain per cent of its cash reserves with
the central bank by law.
(b) As Lender of the Last Resort : As banker to the banks, the central bank
acts as the lender of the last resort. In other words, in case the commercial
banks fail to meet their financial requirements from other sources, they
can, as a last resort, approach the central bank for loans and advances.
The central bank assists such banks through discounting of approved
securities and bills of exchange.
(c) As Clearing Agen t : As the custodian of cash reserves of the
commercial banks, the central bank acts as the clearing house for
these banks. Since all banks have their accounts with the central
bank, the central bank can easily settle the claims of various banks
against each other simply by book entries of transfers from and to
their accounts.
(d) As Supervisor : The central bank supervises, regulates and controls the
commercial banks. This function is done by using its vested powers relating
to licensing, branch expansion, liquidity of assets, amalgamation (merger
up of banks). [2017]

15. The institution that enjoys the monopoly of note issue in India is Reserve
Bank of India.
The important qualitative methods are :
(i) Margin requirements
(ii) Credit authorisation scheme
157
X - ICSE (Economics)  MT EDUCARE LTD.

(iii) Moral suasion


(iv) Rationing of credit.
Margin Requirement.
A margin is the difference between the amount of loan and the market value
of the security offered by the borrower. If the margin is fixed at 30 per cent by
the central bank, then the bank is allowed to advance a loan only upto 70 per
cent of the value of the security. By changing the margin requirements, the
central bank can affect the amount of loans.
Credit Authorisation Scheme.
The credit authorisation scheme introduced in 1965 was also a kind of selective
credit control. Under this scheme, the RBI regulated not only the quantity of
credit but also the terms on which credit flowed to different large borrowers.
The minimum limit for prior authorisation for borrowers in the private sector
was initially fixed at Rs. 1 crore. This scheme was withdrawn as a part of
financial reforms.
Moral Suasion.
Moral suation means persuation, request and appeal by the central bank of a
country to its member banks to expand or contract credit as the situation
demands. Under this method, the central bank applies the policy of persuasion
and pressure on the commercial banks in order to get them to fall in line with
its policy. The central bank frequently announces its policy and urges the
commercial banks to adopt it.
Rationing of credit.
Under this programme, the Reserve Bank fixes credit quota for member banks.
Quota system was introduced in 1960. If the member banks seek more loans
than their fixed quota, they will have to pay higher interest. [2013]

16. Statutory Liquidity Ratio : Under SLR, banks are required to keep a specified
percentage of their demand and time deposits. The minimum cash reserves
to be kept by the bank with it is known as statutory liquidity ratio. It (SLR)
comprises (a) excess reserves (b) government and other approved securities
(securities whose payment is guaranteed by the government) and (c) current
account balances with other banks.
India's central bank (the RBI) is empowered to vary this ratio of the minimum
cash reserves in the range of 25 per cent to 40 per cent. When the central
bank has to contract credit, it increases the statutory liquidity ratio. Increase
in SLR means larger minimum cash reserves with the commercial banks and
less is left for lending. On the other hand, when SLR is reduced, banks now
keep less cash reserves with them which raises their lending power.
Cash Reserve Ratio : Commercial banks are required under law to keep with
central bank a minimum percentage or proportion of their deposits as cash
reserves. This is called Cash Reserve Ratio. RBI does not pay interest on
funds set aside for CRR requirement. When credit is to be contracted, central
bank can increase this ratio and thereby cash resources of the banks can be
reduced and banks are forced to contract credit. During inflation, RBI increases
the CRR to contract credit and during deflation RBI decreases the CRR to
increase the supply of money in the economy. [2013]

17. (i) Public expenditure on the establishment of heavy and basic goods
industries in the initial periods increases the growth rate of the economy.
(ii) Further, public expenditure helps in encouraging private enterprises by
establishing state-owned financial and banking institutions to provide
cheap credit to them.
(iii) Lastly, public expenditure helps in bringing about regional balance in the
economy by diversifying industries in backward and less developed areas
of the country. Financial assistance may be provided to those producers
who establish industries in the backward regions of the country.[2013]

18. Public debt refers to the loans raised by a government within or outside the
country. Every government has to borrow when its expenditure exceeds its
revenue. The borrowing or taking loans by the government is called public
debt. Findly Shirras defines public debt as “National debt is a debt which a
state owes to its own subjects or to the nationals of other countries”.
Internal debt is that debt which is raised by the government from individuals
and institution, etc., within the country.
In the case of external debt, the government borrows from persons, institutions
or governments of the foreign countries. Internal debt is taken mainly for
internal purposes as financing of development expenditure within the country
while external debt is incurred both for development purposes and for meeting
the balance of payment deficits.
Redeemable debt is that which is repayable by the government after a fixed
period of time. The interest on this loan is paid by the government regularly. When
the debt matures, the government pays back the principal amount to lenders. For
the repayment of principal, either the government creates a fund in which a fixed
amount is deposited every year or it raises the amount through taxation.
Irredeemable debt is that whose principal amount is not refunded by the
government. However, interest is paid regularly on such loans for the period
of its duration. [2014]

19. Progressive taxes are the one where in the rate of taxes increases with the
increase in income of an individual. Progressive taxes are favourable for a
developing country like India where vast amount of population even today
lives below povery line. Government can levy higher taxes on the elite secton
of the society and can transfer the receipts to provide benefits to the lower
strata in the form of subsidised foodgrains, kerosene, generating employment
through infrastructural programmes, providing cheap helth and education
facilities etc. [2014]

20. Commercial banks are those banks which perform all kinds of banking functions
such as accepting deposits, advancing loans, credit creation, financing trade
and commerce. A banking company is ‘one which transacts the business of
banking’ which means the accepting, for the purpose of lending or investment,
of deposits of money from the public, repayable on demand or otherwise and
withdrawable by cheque, draft or otherwise.
Commercial Banks mobilise deposits from the public :
The primary functions of commercial bank is to accept deposits from the
public. To attract savings, the banks accept mainly three types of deposits :

159
X - ICSE (Economics)  MT EDUCARE LTD.

(a) Demand Deposits (also known as current deposits) are those deposits
which can be withdrawn by the depositor at any time by means of cheques.
No interest is paid on such deposits.
(b) Saving Deposits are those deposits on the withdrawal of which bank
places certain restrictions. Cheque facility is provided to the depositors.
A low rate of interest is paid on them. The bank places certain restrictions
on the depositor in withdrawing his deposits.
(c) Fixed Deposits (or time deposits) are those deposits which can be
withdrawn only after the expiry of a certain fixed period. Money deposited
in Fixed Deposit Account for a fixed period of time, say one or two or
three years, is called fixed deposit. [2014]

21. The methods used by the central bank to influence the total volume of credit
in the banking system, without any regard for the use to which it is put, are
called quantitative method of credit control. They are -
Bank Rate.
The bank rate is the rate at which a central bank lends money to member
commercial banks against approved securities or eligible bills of exchange. A

SLR means larger minimum cash reserves with the commercial banks and
less is left for lending. On the other hand, when SLR is reduced, banks now
keep less cash reserves with them which raises their lending power. [2014]

22. (i) Standard of Deferred Payments : When money is generally accepted as


a medium of exchange and a unit of value, it naturally becomes the unit
in terms of which deferred or future payments are expressed. Money
has successfully performed the function of a standard of deferred payments
because, firstly, its value is relatively more stable than that of other
commodities. Secondly, the element of durability is higher as compared
to other commodities and finally, it possesses the quality of general
acceptability.
(ii) Store of Value : Money also serves as a store of value. People can now
keep their wealth in the form of money. Money allows us to store surplus
purchasing power which can be used at any time in future to purchase
goods and services. In simple words, money enables people to save a part
of their current income for spending in future. It was Keynes who first
realised the store of value function of money and regarded money as a
link between the present and the future.
(iii) Transfer of Value : Money also functions as a means of transferring
value. Through money, value can be easily and quickly transferred from
one place to another because money is acceptable everywhere. It is
because of this function of money, people can buy goods at far off places
for the satisfaction of their wants. [2015]

23. (a) The central bank has the sole monopoly to issue currency notes.
Commercial banks cannot issue currency notes. Currency notes and
coins issued by the central bank are the legal tender money. Legal tender
money is one which every individual is bound to accept by law in exchange
for goods and services and the discharge of debts.
However, the monopoly of central bank to issue the currency notes may
be partial in certain countries. For example, in India, one rupee notes
are issued by the government and all other notes are issued by the
Reserve Bank of India.
The main reasons for giving the monopoly right of note-issue to the central
bank are:
(i) It brings uniformity in note circulation.
(ii) It gives distinctive prestige to the note-issue. As a result, people
develop faith in the economy.
(iii) It enables the government to have supervision and control over the
supply of money in the country.
(iv) It enables the central bank to exercise the control over the creation
of credit by the commercial banks.
(b) As Lender of the Last Resort : As banker to the banks, the central bank
acts as the lender of the last resort. In other words, in case the commercial
banks fail to meet their financial requirements from other sources, they

161

can, as a last resort, approach the central bank for loans and advances.
The central bank assists such banks through discounting of approved
securities and bills of exchange. [2015]

24. Public expenditure is that expenditure incurred by the public authorities (i.e.
Central, State and Local Governments) to satisfy those common wants, which
the people in their individual capacity are unable to satisfy efficiently. For
e.g. expenditure incurred by the government on education, health, public
works, expenditure on administration and maintenance of law and order are
examples of public expenditure.
The reasons responsible for the tendency of increasing volume of expenditure
under the following three heads are :
(a) Political Causes
(i) Growth of democracy : The recent growth of democracy and socialism
everywhere in the world has caused public expenditure to increase
very much. Expenditure on elections and by - elections is increasing.
Number of ministers and executive officers has also been increased.
Further, the ruling party has to fulfil its promises and launch new
programmes to persuade public opinion in its favour.
(ii) Increase in defense expenditure : International political situation is
uncertain and insecure. People are always afraid of a war. Hence,
every nation must be strong enough to protect itself to the extent
possible for it.
(b) Social Causes
(i) Population Growth : With the increase of population, the
responsibilities of the state also increase which consequently leads
to the increase in public expenditure.
(ii) Social Services : The generalised social services, e. g., education,
public health, water supply and sanitation facilities etc., which are
considered as the duty of the sate has been increasing. New
departments like Child welfare, Women welfare, Labour welfare,
etc., have been estabilised. All this have led to growth of public
expenditure.
(iii) Social Security Measures : Government is now always eager to raise
the standard of living of people in lower income groups. They are
spending huge amounts for providing benefits such as old - age
pension, sickness benefits, accident benefits, free education and
medical services to industrial workers etc.
(c) Economic Causes
(i) Rise in Prices : There has been a gradual increase in the price level
in almost every country of the world and the governments have to
spend more money for the same amount of goods and services that
they desire, and to increase the salaries and dearness allowance of
government employees.
(ii) Growth of Public Sector : The public sector has been increasing in
capitalist and mixed economies which has led to increase in public
expenditure.
(iii) Economic Assistance to Private Sector : States also give economic
assistance to various industries which have undertaken the
162
 MT EDUCARE LTD. X - ICSE (Economics)

programmes of planned development. This has also increased the


public expenditure to great extent.
(iv) Development Programmes : Urbanisation has led to increase in
government expenditures on civil administration, education, public
health, water supply, parks, etc. [2015, 2018]

25. A tax is compulsory payment imposed on the persons or companies by the


governments to meet the expenditure incurred on providing common benefits
to the people.
(i) Economy : Direct taxes are economical in the sense that the cost of collection
of these taxes is relatively low, because the same officers who assess small
income or properties can also assess large income or properties.
(ii) Equity : Direct taxes are based on the principle of ability to pay. They fall
more heavily on the rich than on the poor. So the burden of a direct tax is
equitably distributed on different people and institutions.
(iii) Certainty : Direct taxes are certain. The tax-payer knows how much tax
is due from him and so, he can adjust his income and expenditure. The
government also knows fairly well the amount of revenues coming to it
by way of direct taxes and can adjusts its income and expenditure.
(iv) Elasticity : Another merit of direct taxes is that they are based on the
canon of elasticity. These taxes are elastic in nature as the government
revenue can be increased by raising the tax rates in times of crisis.
(v) Civic Consciousness : Direct taxes inculcate a spirit of civic responsibility
amongst the tax-payers. Since the tax-payers provide the funds from
their own pockets to the government, they take keen interest in seeing
that these funds are properly utilised. This public awareness plays an
important role in checking the wastage of public expenditure. [2015]

26. Public expenditure is that expenditure incurred by the public authorities (i.e.
Central, State and Local Governments) to satisfy those common wants, which
the people in their individual capacity are unable to satisfy efficiently. For
e.g. expenditure incurred by the government on education, health, public
works, expenditure on administration and maintenance of law and order are
examples of public expenditure.
(i) Public expenditure on the establishment of heavy and basic goods
industries in the initial periods increases the growth rate of the economy.
(ii) Further, public expenditure helps in encouraging private enterprises by
establishing state-owned financial and banking institutions to provide
cheap credit to them.
(iii) Lastly, public expenditure helps in bringing about regional balance in the
economy by diversifying industries in backward and less developed areas
of the country. Financial assistance may be provided to those producers
who establish industries in the backward regions of the country. [2016]

[2016]

28. In economics, capital has been traditionally defined in the sense of physical
capital. In this sense, capital refers to those reproducible or man-made durable
goods that are used as inputs to produce other goods and services in the future.
(i) (a) Real capital refers to the physical stocks of goods which are used as
input in the production process thus, the machines, raw materials
etc. are the examples of real capital. This is also called concrete
capital. The contribution of real capital towards, the increase in
national output of any country is certainly more important than the
money capital because money capital does not necessarily contribute
towards the increase in national output.
(b) Debt Capital consists of titles to wealth like share, debenture,
government promissory notes, etc. They represent invested funds
and yield income. For example, if any individual invest his fund in
purchansing IDBI flexibonds; ICIC bond, etc, in our country, then he
will fixed interest income on the value of those bonds. Hence, these
bonds are considered as debt capital.
(ii) (a) Sunk Capital : Is that which can only be put to a single use. It is also
called as 'specialised capital.' It always remains at the place where
it is fixed. For example, a printing machine can only be put for printing
and nothing else.
(b) Money Capital : The term 'Money Capital' or finance capital' is used
to describe capital in term of money. Money itself is not a means of
production. However, money can be used for buying capital goods
(like machines, and raw materials) It would not be wrong to treat the
money used for this purpose as capital. [2016]

29. Money is defined on the basis of functions it performs. Anything which is


generally accepted as a medium of exchange, in payment of debt and as
payment of goods or services is called money. Money is, "Anything that is
generally acceptable as a means of exchange and at the same time acts as
measure and store of value."
The Primary functions of money are :
(i) Medium of Exchange : Medium of exchange is considered to be the first
and the most important function of money. As money has the quality of
164
 MT EDUCARE LTD. X - ICSE (Economics)

general acceptability, therefore, all the exchanges in an economy take


place in terms of money.
While functioning as medium of exchange, money benefits the society in
many ways :
(a) It overcomes the difficulties of barter system.
(b) It promotes transactional efficiency in exchange with minimum effort
and time. By acting as an intermediary, it increases the ease of
trade.
(c) It allows freedom of choice in the sense that a person can use money
to buy goods of his choice from people who offer him the best bargain.
(ii) Measure of Value : The second fundamental function of money is that it
acts as a common measure of value. Money serves as a unit of
measurement in terms of which the values of all goods and services are
measured and expressed. Money is a useful measuring rod of value only
when its own value remains stable. The value of money is linked to its
purchasing power. As the general price level increases, a unit of money
can purchase lesser amount of goods and services. So the value or
purchasing power of money declines. Hence, money will be useful unit of
value only as long as its own value or purchasing power remains constant.
Money also acts as a unit of account. [2016]

30. The five agency functions of a Commercial Bank are :


(i) Collection and Making Payments for Credit Instruments : Bank collect
or make payment for bills, cheques, promissory notes. For these services,
some charges are usually made by the banks.
(ii) Collection of Dividends on Shares : Bank collect dividends on shares
and interest on debentures of their customers.
(iii) Purchase and Sale of Securities : Banks undertake purchase and sale
of various securities like shares, stocks, bonds, debentures, etc., on behalf
of their customers.
(iv) Trustee and Executor : Banks preserve the wills of their customers and
execute them after their death.
(v) Transfer of Funds : Banks help their customers in transferring funds
from one place to another through cheques, drafts, etc. [2016]

31. The main difference between a commercial bank and the central bank is that
the principal objective of the 'central bank' is to maximize economic welfare of
the country while the principal objective of a commercial banks is to earn
profit. Lending is the second basic function of the bank. The commercial
banks lend out money to traders and businessmen, which is the main source
of a bank's earning. A commercial bank advance credit to its borrowers in the
following three ways :
(i) Cash Credit : In cash credit, the bank advances a 'cash loan' up to a
specified limit to the customer against a bond or other security. A borrower
is required to open a current account and bank allows the borrower to
withdraw up to the full amount of the loan. The interest is charged only on
the amount actually utilized by the borrower and not on the loan sanctioned.
(ii) Overdraft : The overdraft facility is allowed to the depositor maintaining
a current account with the bank. According to this facility, a borrower is
165
X - ICSE (Economics)  MT EDUCARE LTD.

allowed to withdraw more amount than what is there in the current


account. The excess amount so withdrawn has to be repaid to the bank
with interest. However, the overdraft facility is given only against security
of some assets or on personal security of the customer.
(iii) Discounting Bills of Exchange : The banks provide financial help to the
merchants and exporters, who are the customers of that bank, by way of
discounting their bills of exchange. In such facility, the bank pays the
amount of bill presented by the customer, after deducting the usual bank
discount. This way, the customer gets the amount of the bill before the
date of its maturity. As such the bank assists its customers to a great
extent by accepting their bills and providing them with liquid assets (money).
Usually a bill matures after 90 days or so and then the bank presents it to
the acceptor and receives full amount of the bill. [2017]

32. Now-a-days, the government plays a vital role in promotion of economic


development of a country, particularly of an under-developed country like
India which lack even the basic necessities of life, such as, food, cloth, housing,
health, education etc. India suffers from a number of problems like high
incidence of poverty, chronic problem of unemployment and widespread
inequality in the distribution of income and wealth. All these factors have
necessitated active participation of the state in the task of promoting economic
development and that is why the public expenditure in India has grown by
leaps and bounds. Following are the main reasons:
Political Causes
(i) Growth of democracy : The recent growth of democracy and socialism
everywhere in the world has caused public expenditure to increase very
much. Expenditure on elections and by - elections is increasing. Number
of ministers and executive officers has also been increased. Further, the
ruling party has to fulfil its promises and launch new programmes to
persuade public opinion in its favour.
Social Causes.
(i) Population Growth : With the increase of population, the responsibilities
of the state also increase which consequently leads to the increase in
public expenditure.
(ii) Social Services : The generalised social services, e. g., education,
public health, water supply and sanitation facilities etc., which are
considered as the duty of the sate has been increasing. New departments
like Child welfare, Women welfare, Labour welfare, etc., have been
establised. All this have led to growth of public expenditure.
Economic Causes.
(i) Rise in Prices : There has been a gradual increase in the price level in
almost every country of the world and the governments have to spend
more money for the same amount of goods and services that they desire,
and to increase the salaries and dearness allowance of government
employees.
(ii) Growth of Public Sector : The public sector has been increasing in
capitalist and mixed economies which has led to increase in public
expenditure. [2017]

33. These terms are associated with Indirect tax. The meaning of the terms are
as follows:
(i) Impact : Impact refers to "On whom the Tax is levied in the first instance."
It means who is primarily responsible to pay the tax. In indirect tax, the
impact of the tax is on seller who is primarily responsible to pay the
imposed tax.
(ii) Shifting : It refers to transfer of the burden of the tax amount. In indirect
tax, though it is seller who initially pays the tax but he adds (transfers) this
tax in the cost of the product and collects it from the buyer of the product.
(iii) Incidence : Incidence refers to "who bears the final burden of the tax."
So in the case of indirect tax, it is the ultimate consumer who bears the
ultimate burden of the tax by paying it through its price.
Merit of Indirect Taxes
(i) Convenient : They are mostly levied on commodities and are paid by
consumers when they buy them in the market. The amount of the tax is
included in the price of the commodity and the consumer pays the tax
without experiencing its pinch.
Demerits of Indirect Taxes
(i) Regressive : Indirect taxes are not equitable as they are regressive in
nature. It affects the poor more than the rich man. For example, a
commodity tax imposed on foodstuffs will affect a poor family to a much
greater extent than a rich family.
(ii) Uncertain : As soon as the tax is levied on a commodity, its price rises in
the market and, consequently, its demand declines. It cannot be said
with certainty as to which extent the demand of the commodity has
declined consequent upon the imposition of the tax. Hence, there is
always uncertainty about the income occurring from the indirect taxes.
[2017]

34. In advanced countries indirect taxes are relatively less significant as compared
to less developed countries.
Following are the main merits of indirect taxes.
(i) Convenient : Indirect taxes are more convenient than direct taxes. They
are paid in small amounts, and that too at intervals, instead of in lump
sum. They are generally included in the price of the commodity and
hence not much burden is felt by their payers.
(ii) Wide coverage : Indirect taxes can be imposed on a large variety of goods
so that most of the persons contribute something to the revenue of the
government.
(iii) Equity : Indirect taxes can be made equitable by imposing heavy taxes on
luxury goods consumed by the rich consumers and low taxes on the
essential commodities.
(iv) Elastic : Indirect taxes can be made elastic and productive, particularly
when they are imposed on essential goods like edible oils, flour sugar, etc,
whose demand is inelastic. But, this will go against the cannon of equity.
(v) No Evasion : Indirect taxes are difficult to be evaded as they are included
in the price of the commodity. A person can evade an indirect tax only
when he decides not to purchase the taxed commodity.
(vi) Check on consumption of harming commodities : Heavy indirect taxation
on commodities like wine, opium, etc., serves a great social purpose. It may
check their consumption and save the society from their harmful effects.
167
X - ICSE (Economics)  MT EDUCARE LTD.

(vii) Protection against foreign competition : By imposing import duties, domestic


industries can be protected from foreign competition. When the government
wants to protect a particular industry against foreign competition, it imposes
heavy import duty on the imported goods.As a result, prices of imported
commodities would go up and domestically produced commodities would be
available in the market at cheaper price. [2018]

35. A tax is compulsory payment imposed on the persons or companies by the


governments to meet the expenditure incurred on providing common benefits
to the people.
The following are the important characteristics of a tax.
(i) Compulsory Payment : A tax is a compulsory payment made by the people
to the government. No one can refuse to pay it. Taxes are imposed by the
government only. Refusal to pay taxes is subjected to legal action by the
government.
(ii) General welfare : The amount received from the taxes is spent for common
benefits or general welfare. This means tax money is not used for the
benefit of tax-payers alone.
(iii) No Quid Pro Quo : The essence of a tax is the absence of a direct quid pro
quo (proportionate return) to the tax payer from public authority.
(iv) A tax is payable regularly and periodically as determined by the taxing authority.
(v) A tax is a legal collection. [2018]

37. Banks helps in economic development in the following ways :


(i) Necessary for Trade and Industry : Banks provide timely financial
assistance to traders and industrialists.
(ii) Distribution of Funds : Banks help in the distribution of surplus capital
from regions where it is not wanted to those regions where it can be
most usefully used.
(iii) Promote Capital Formation : Banks also promote capital formation. They
accept deposits from the people who have surplus money and advance it
to the investors.
(iv) Banks Encourage the right type of industries : Banks prefer to advance
loans only to those industries whose products are in great demand. Thus,
they encourages the right type of industries.
(v) Growth of priority sectors : Commercial banks play an important role in
the development of the priority sectors such as agriculture, small-scale
industry, retail trade, export, etc.
(vi) Useful to Underdeveloped Countries : In underdeveloped countries like
India, a large number of people live in villages where banking facilities
are quite inadequate. So, rural savings are wasted. By opening more and
more branches in these rural areas, idle savings can be mobilized and
made available to the productive enterprises. [2018]

38. (i) Public debt refers to the loans raised by a government within or outside the
country. Every government has to borrow when its expenditure exceeds its
revenue. The borrowing or taking loans by the government is called public
debt. Findly Shirras defines public debt as “National debt is a debt which a
state owes to its own subjects or to the nationals of other countries”.
(ii) Redeemable debt is that which is repayable by the government after a
fixed period of time. The interest on this loan is paid by the government
regularly. When the debt matures, the government pays back the principal
amount to lenders. For the repayment of principal, either the government
creates a fund in which a fixed amount is deposited every year or it
raises the amount through taxation.
(iii) Unproductive loans refer to those loans which are incurred on those
projects which do not yield any income. For example, loans taken by the
government to finance a war and for covering the budgetary deficit are
unproductive loans. Such loans do not add to the productive capacity of
the economy. Unproductive loans are considered as a dead weight upon
the government. [2019]

39. (i) Lack of Common Measure of Value : Even if the two persons who want
each other's goods meet by coincidence, the problem arises as to the
proportion in which the two goods should be exchanged. The value of a
commodity or services means the amount of other goods and services it
can be exchanged for, in the market. In the absence of a common measure
of value, trade was difficult to be carried out.
(ii) Lack of Standard of Deferred (Future) Payments : Another drawback of
barter system is that it lacks a standard of deferred payments. So, credit
transactions requiring future payments cannot take place smoothly under
barter trading.
169
X - ICSE (Economics)  MT EDUCARE LTD.

There are three main problems in this context. These are :


(a) It may create controversy regarding the quality of goods or services
to be repaid in future.
(b) The two parties may be unable to agree on the specific goods to be
used for repayment.
(c) Both parties run the risk that the value of goods to be repaid may
increase or decrease in future. [2019]

40. (i) Fiscal agent of the government : As a fiscal agent, it performs the
following functions :
(a) It manages the public borrowings.
(b) It collects taxes and other payments on behalf of the government.
(c) It represents the government in the international financial
institutions (such as World Bank, International Monetary Fund, etc.)
and conferences.
(ii) Advisor to the government : The central bank also acts as the financial
adviser to the government. It gives advice to the government on all financial
and economic matters such as deficit financing, devaluation of currency,
trade policy, foreign exchange policy, etc. [2019]

5. When the rise in prices is very slow like that of a snail or creeper, it is called
creeping inflation. In terms of speed, prices rise about 2 per cent annually
which is regarded safe and essential for economic growth because it keeps
the economy away from stagnation and motivates the producer to stay in the
market and continue his production activity. [2015, 2016]

6. During the process of production, various factors of production are employed


like land, labour and capital. They are not available free of cost. The owner of
these factors receive rent, wages, interest. These remunerations to the factors
is called as ‘Cost of production’.An increase in cost of production results in
Cost push inflation. [2017]

7. Small farmers do not gain much during inflation as the major portion of their
produce is not marketed but instead, kept for self-consumption. Moreover,
they have the purchase inputs, like seeds, fertilisers, insecticides, etc., at
higher prices during inflation. [2018]

Long answers :
4. Inflation refers to a situation in which prices of goods and services rise
persistently at a fast pace.
Effects of Inflation
(i) Fixed Income Groups : Fixed income earners (i.e. wage and salary
earners, pensioners etc.) suffer during inflation. It is because that their
171
X - ICSE (Economics)  MT EDUCARE LTD.

incomes do not increase in the same proportion in which prices or the


cost of living rises. As a result, these fixed income earners tend to buy
less amount of goods and services than before even when there is little
rise in their income.
(ii) Producers : Producers tend to gain during inflation. It is because that
prices of their inventories (stock of goods and raw-material, go up. Prices
rise at a faster rate than the cost of production. Producers get better
prices for their goods during inflation. [2013, 2017]

5. When prices rises due to rise in cost of production, it is called cost push inflation.
Two Factor Causing Cost Push Inflation
(i) Rise in Wages : Rise in wages has been considered as the main determinant
of cost inflation is the modern theory of inflation; This is because in modern
times, workers have organized themselves into strong trade unions which
have succeeded in getting higher wages for their members.
(ii) Increase in the Price of Basic Materials : Cost push inflation is also
caused by increase in the prices of some basic materials, such as steel,
basic chemicals, oil, etc. Since, these materials are used directly or
indirectly in almost all the industries, any increase in their price affect
the whole of the economy and the prices everywhere tend to increase.
(iii) Higher Taxes : Another important cause of cost push inflation is the
imposition of higher taxes on commodities, like excise duties, sales tax
etc. These taxes are largely passed over by the producers to the consumers
by the way of taxes. [2013, 2015, 2019]

6. Inflation means a state of rising prices of goods and services.


Four causes of Inflation
(i) Increase in money supply : Increase in money supply is one of the major
causes of inflation. Increase in the supply of money leads to increase in
aggregate demand for goods and services and hence rise in their prices.
(ii) Increase in Population : Increase in population is another major cause
responsible for inflation. Increase in population leads to increased demand
for goods and services and hence increase in their prices.
(iii) Higher Taxes : The imposition of higher taxes on commodities results in
rise in prices of taxed commodities.
(iv) Rise in Wages : Rise in wages has been considered as the main cause
behind cost push inflation. [2014]

7. Inflation is commonly understood to be a situation in which prices of goods


and services persistently rise at a fast pace. Inflation refers to a state of
rising prices and not a state of high prices. A substantial rise in price or rise
in price at faster rates is called inflation.
1. Effect on Debtors : During inflation debtors are the gainers when they
pay back their debt. It is because the value of money was high when they
borrowed but it came down when they repaid their debts. So they are the
net gainers.
2. The various types of inflation are explained below:
(a) Creeping Inflation : Creeping inflation is the inflation whose rate of
increase is very mild, i.e., 2-3 percent per annum. So this is also

172
 MT EDUCARE LTD. X - ICSE (Economics)

known as mild inflation. Such kind of inflation is not at all harmful


rather it helps in the growth of the economy by giving an extra impetus
to entrepreneurs to invest more.
(b) Walking or Trotting Inflation : When the rate of rise in inflation is
of international standard of 3 to 8 percent per annum, it is called
walking or trotting inflation.
(c) Running Inflation : When the sustained rise in prices is over 8
percent and generally around 20 percent per annum, it is called
running inflation. It normally shows two-digit inflation. Running
inflation is a warning signal indicating the need for controlling it
otherwise it will convert into hyperinflation. [2017]

8. (i) Demand pull inflation may be defined as a situation where the aggregate
demand exceeds the economy’s ability to supply the goods and services
at the current prices, so that the prices are pulled up by the excess
demand.
(ii) Demand pull inflation is mainly caused by the following factors :
(a) Increase in Money Supply : The first major cause of demand pull
inflation is increase in the supply of money which leads to increase
in aggregate demand.
(b) Increase in Disposable Income : When the disposable income of the
people increases, it raises their demand for goods and services leading
to demand pull inflation.
(c) Increase in Population : Increase in population is another major
cause responsible for rise in prices. Increase in population means
increased demand for consumer goods. It increases the aggregate
demand for goods and services and puts pressure on the existing
supply of goods and services. [2018]

9. Inflation is commonly understood to be a situation in which prices of goods


and services persistently rise at a fast pace. Inflation refers to a state of
rising prices and not a state of high prices. A substantial rise in price or rise
in price at faster rates is called inflation.
(i) Impact on the producers : Businessmen (i.e., entrepreneurs, traders,
producers, etc.) tend to gain during inflation, because
(a) prices of their inventories (stock of goods and raw material) go up
and thereby increasing their profits.
(b) Prices rise at a faster rate than the cost of production.
(c) They are generally borrowers of money (debtors) for business purposes.
(ii) Impact on the Salaried Class : Wage and salary earners suffer during
inflation. It is due to the reason that wages and salaries do not increase
in the same proportion in which the prices or the cost of living rises. Due
to inflation, purchasing power of money falls. As a result of it, fixed
income earners tend to buy less amount of goods and services than before
even when there is a little rise in their wages. [2019]

Short answers :
2. Two reasons for consumer exploitation in India :
(i) Lack of Information : In a free market economy, producers and sellers
are free to produce any goods and services in any quantity and there is
no regulation on the prices. In such cases, providing full and correct
information about the product to consumers is of great importance. In
the absence of information about different aspects of the products namely,
price, quality, composition, conditions of use, terms of purchase, etc.,
the consumers are liable to make a wrong decision and hence lose money.
(ii) Illiteracy : Illiteracy is one of the major reasons that lead to exploitation
of consumers. The level of consumer consciousness in our country is
generally low. The level of illiteracy directly affects the level of awareness
about products and the markets. [2015]

3. Two Forms of Consumer Exploitation


(i) Underweight and Undermeasurement : The goods being sold in the market
are sometimes not measured or weighed correctly.
(ii) Sub-standard Quality : The goods sold are sometimes of sub-standard
quality. Selling of medicines beyond their expiry dates and supply of
defective home appliances are generally the regular grievances of
consumers. [2013]

4. RTI means Right to Information, under it any citizen of India may request
information from a public authority. [2015]

5. The Indian laws have accepted the following as the rights of the consumers :
(Write any 2)
(i) Right to Safety : The consumers have the right to be protected against
marketing of goods and services, which are hazardous to life and property.
(ii) Right to be Informed : All the consumers have the 'right to be informed'
about the particulars of goods and services that they purchase. They
have the right to be informed about the quality, quantity, potency, purity,
standard and price of goods.
(iii) Right to Choose : It means assurance of access to variety of goods and
services at competitive price. In case of single supplier, the consumer has
the right to be assured of satisfactory quality and service at a fair price.
(iv) Right to be Heard : The consumer's interest should receive due
consideration at appropriate forums relating to consumer welfare.
(v) Right to Seek Redressal : The consumer has the right to seek redressal
against unfair trade practices or exploitation and right to fair settlement
of the genuine grievances.
(vi) Right to Consumer Education : This includes knowledge about goods
and issues relating to consumer welfare. [2016]

6. COPRA refers to the Consumer Protection Act. This act was passed by Indian
parliament in 1986. The objective of COPRA is to provide a law to protect the
consumers' interests and provide them a proper grievance redressal forum so
that they can get their rights as consumer secured. [2017]

and protection is called consumer awareness. [2017, 2018]

8. In order to secure the rights, consumers have to fulfil the following duties :
(i) While purchasing the goods, consumer should look at the quality of the
product, as well as on guarantee or warranty period. Consumer should

Long answers :
1. Methods of Consumers' Exploitation in India.
The ways in which consumers are exploited by manufactures and traders are
mentioned below :
(i) Underweight and Undermeasurement : The goods being sold in the market
are sometimes not measured or weighed correctly.
(ii) Sub-standard Quality : The goods sold are sometimes of sub-standard quality.
Selling of medicines beyond their expiry dates and supply of defective home
appliances are generally the regular grievances of consumers.
(iii) Duplicate Articles : In the name of genuine parts or goods, fake or
duplicate items are being sold to the consumers.
(iv) High Prices : Very often the traders charge a price higher than
theprescribed retail price.
(v) Lack of Safety Devices : In order to increase the sale of their products,
some producers especially of electrical foods, electronic devices and such
other appliances, try to produce things of poor quality without caring for
the standard safeguard norms. Such things prove very dangerous for the
customers and some are even involved in serious accidents.
(vi) Artificial Scarcity : In order to get more and more profit, certain traders
resort to hoarding of things thereby creating artificial scarcity. They sell
these things later on at higher prices.
(vii) Poor After-sale Service : Many of the high cost durable items, such as
electrical or electronic equipments, home appliances and cars etc. need
adequate after-sale care. The supplier does not provide the satisfactory
after-sale services despite the necessary payments.
(viii) Adulteration and Impurity : In costly consumer items such as oil, ghee
and spices, adulteration is made in order to earn higher profits. This
causes heavy monetary loss to the consumers as well as spoil their health.
(ix) Rude Behaviour and Undue Conditions : In matters like LPG gas
connection, fixing of a new telephone line, procurement of licensing items
etc., consumers are often harassed and undue conditions are put before
them. [2014, 2016, 2018]

3. The Indian laws have accepted the following as the rights of the consumers :
(i) Right to Safety : The consumers have the right to be protected against
marketing of goods and services, which are hazardous to life and property.
(ii) Right to be Informed : All the consumers have the 'right to be informed'
about the particulars of goods and services that they purchase. They
have the right to be informed about the quality, quantity, potency, purity,
standard and price of goods.
(iii) Right to Choose : It means assurance of access to variety of goods and
services at competitive price. In case of single supplier, the consumer has
the right to be assured of satisfactory quality and service at a fair price.
(iv) Right to be Heard : The consumer's interest should receive due
consideration at appropriate forums relating to consumer welfare.
(v) Right to Seek Redressal : The consumer has the right to seek redressal
against unfair trade practices or exploitation and right to fair settlement
of the genuine grievances.
(vi) Right to Consumer Education : This includes knowledge about goods
and issues relating to consumer welfare. [2018]

4. A process through which a substance is added to a food item to increase its


quantity is called food adulteration. It is a serious social crime as it adversely
affects the health of the society. The main objective behind food adulteration
is to increase profit margin. Adding brick powder to chilly powder is an example
of food adulteration. It can let to serious health issues like diarrhoea, skin
allergies, cancer, paralysis and even death. [2013, 2019]

5. A consumer is a person who takes decisions about what to buy for satisfaction
of his wants.
Importance of Educating Consumers of their rights : When the government
withdrew itself from production activities and permitted the private sector to
take over, it was realised that there is a greater need to educate the consumers
of their rights. The consumers have to be aware not only the commercial
aspects of sale and purchase of goods but also of health and security aspects.
A consumer stands at a much weaker footing than a seller. A seller can
always use market conditions to his favour. Hence it is essential to educate
the consumer of their rights to enable them protected from the sellers.
[2013]

6. Consumer’s consciousness towards his/her rights and duties is known as


consumer awareness. An alert consumer is the one who is alert of his rights
and duties. An alert consumer will make sure that producers and sellers
don’t cheat him by adopting unfair trade practices. He will save himself from
various forms of exploitation like use of underweights while weighing goods,
consumption of sub-standard goods and duplicate articles, paying higher prices
than MRP, getting poor after sale services after the purchase of products,
adulteration and impurity and undue conditions. He will keep checks and
balances on anti-social activities like hoarding, black-marketing etc. In short,
he will remain free from exploitation. [2015]

7. The following are the major reasons that cause exploitation of the consumers :
(i) Lack of Information : In a free market economy, producers and sellers
are free to produce any goods and services in any quantity and there is
no regulation on the prices. In such cases, providing full and correct
information about the product to consumers is of great importance. In
the absence of information about different aspects of the products namely,
price, quality, composition, conditions of use, terms of purchase, etc.,
the consumers are liable to make a wrong decision and hence lose money.
(ii) Shortage of Goods and Services : The consumers are exploited when
the goods and services are not available in the required quantity or
numbers. Limited supplies are a result, usually, of lower production of
goods, as compared to the demand. This gives rise to tendency of hoarding
and price-increase.
(iii) Limited Competition : In some cases, single producer or a group of
producers control the production and supply of a product. He is in a
position to restrict the availability of supplies. There is, thus, a possibility
of manipulation in prices and availability.
(iv) Illiteracy : Illiteracy is one of the major reasons that lead to exploitation
of consumers. The level of consumer consciousness in our country is
generally low. The level of illiteracy directly affects the level of awareness
about products and the markets.
(v) Ill-effects of Advertisement : Most of the customers are so much attracted
by the advertisement of different articles that they do not try to verify
the quality of those goods. They buy with a lightening speed and often
repent afterwards. [2017]

(h) (i) Target Rate of Return : An adequate return on investment or net


sales is an important pricing objective. The idea is to secure a
sufficient return on capital employed after covering costs of
production and distribution. An estimate is made of the profits
required to yield the expected rate to return over the long run.
Prices are so set that the total sales revenue exceeds the total
costs by the estimated profit amount. In other words, this objective
leads to cost plus pricing.
(ii) Price Stability : In this objective, a firm seeks to cut or eliminate
cyclical price fluctuations and to void price wars. This goal is used
in an industry having a few firms. In an oligopolistic situation where
one firm is very big and all others are small, the big firm acts as the
price leader and other firms follow it. All the firms try to avoid price
wars. Price stability helps in planned and regular production in the
long run However, it may create rigidity in pricing.
(iii) Market Share : Market share (sales of a firm in relation to those of
competitors) is a very meaningful mark for measuring the market
position or success. When the market has a potential for growth

its market share maintained.
(iv) Meet or Prevent Competition : In a market characterised by cut-
throat competition, firms often take pricing decision to meet or
present competition. Established firm may cut prices drastically to
prevent competitors from entering a market. A company adopts below
cost pricing to fight competition.
(v) Profit Maximisation : Firms pursuing this objective try to earn as
much money as possible. Small and little known firms may try to
change as much price as the customer can bear. Due to high profits,
new entrepreneurs will be attracted into the industry and prices
will come down in the long run. [2019]

A.2. Long Answers :


(c) According to William Stanton, "Marketing is a total system of interacting
business activities designed to plan, price, promote and distribute want
satisfying goods and services to the benefit of present and potential
customers."
The main objectives of marketing are as follows :
(i) Creation of Demand : A business firm can sell goods and services
only when there are customers willing to buy them. Therefore, the
first purpose of marketing is to create demand for goods and services.
For this purpose, marketing finds out the needs and preferences of
customers. Then advertising, personal selling, sales promotion and
other methods are used to create demand and to persuade customers
to buy.
(ii) Customer Satisfaction : Modern marketing is customer oriented.
All marketing activities begin and end with the customers. The focus
is on selling satisfaction rather than on selling a specific product or
service.
(iii) Market Share : Every business firm seeks to have a reasonable
share of the total demand. In a competitive market, aggressive selling
efforts are necessary to make products and services popular. Good
quality goods are offered at reasonable prices to capture a large
share in the market.
(iv) Profitability and Growth : Marketing seeks to achieve long-term
goals of profitability and growth by satisfying the wants of customers.
In order to survive and grow, a good business must create and satisfy
customers. If the customers are not satisfied, business will fail to
earn and survive. Therefore, modern marketing begins and ends
with the customers.
(v) Goodwill : Marketing aims at building the reputation of the enterprise
over a time. The enterprise attempts to earn a name for itself and
build its position in the market by selling quality products at
reasonable prices, and through efficient after sales services.
[2014, 2015]
(d) Two modes of purchasing goods are as follows:
(i) Purchase through Inspection : It implies personal examination of
the whole lot of goods at the sellers place.
(ii) Purchase by Description: It refers to buying of goods after reading
the catalogue or price list which contains the description of goods.
[2016]
183
X - ICSE (Commercial studies)  MT EDUCARE LTD.

(e) The importance of marketing is :


(i) Generation of Revenue : Marketing is the only source from which
business can generate revenue to meet its expenses and to earn
profits. The survival and growth of a business enterprise depends
on the effectiveness and efficiency of marketing.
(ii) Customer Satisfaction : Marketing helps to identify and satisfy the
needs and wants of consumers. Modern marketing begins and ends
with the customers.
(iii) Employment Generation : Marketing offers challenging and
rewarding jobs to a large number of persons. It also generates
employment in production by enlarging the scale of distribution and
production.
(iv) Higher Standard of Living : Marketing is helpful in improving the
standard of living of people by offering a wide variety of goods and
services with freedom of choice. It has modernised the living
standards of people through the supply of quality products at
reasonable prices.
(v) Large Scale Production : Marketing makes mass selling possible
and thereby facilitates large scale production. Economies of large
scale production help to reduce the cost of production per unit.
(vi) Economic Development : Marketing gives a boost to transportation,
banking, insurance, warehousing and other economic activities. It
makes the economy strong and stable by balancing production with
consumption. In fact, marketing is the kingpin that keeps the
economy moving ahead.
(vii) Foreign Exchange Earner : Marketing helps in exploring foreign
markets and in exporting goods and services. It is through marketing
that a country earns valuable foreign exchange.
(viii) Creation of Utilities : Marketing includes all activities involved in
the creation of place utility, time utility and possession utility. Place
uitlity is created by making goods available at the places where
they are needed. Time utility is created by making goods available
at the right time. Possession utility is created when goods are
transferred to those who need them. [2018]

"As a competing tool, advertising is perhaps less costly than many
other tools which will be used to a greater degree if advertising

2. Undermines Social Values : Many advertisements are highly
objectionable and socially undersirable as they encourage social
evils like drinking and smoking. To some extent advertising spoils
the landscape and diverts attention of dri -vers. Some adverti se

advertising. [2019]

A.2. Long Answers :


(f) Factors Influencing Choice of Advertising Media
1. Nature of Product : Consumer products of daily use require a general
and wide appeal for advertising. Therefore, newspapers, radio and
TV are most useful media. On the other hand, industrial products
like machines are better advertised in trade and technical journals
and direct mail.
2. Location and Size of Market : Local and small markets can be
covered through films, outdoor media and regional newspapers.
Newspapers, radio and TV are perferable when the market is large
and geographically scattered.
3. Type of Message : Short advertisements can be given on radio, TV
and films. But lengthy advertisements are better given in newspapers
and direct mail.
4. Coverage of Media : When the message is to cover a large number
of people, newspapers, radio and TV are suitable. Magazines, direct
mail and outdoor media have a limited coverage.
5. Cost of Media : Radio, TV and films are costlier than direct mail,
newspapers and outdoor media. [2013]

(g) Five benefits of advertising to manufacturers/dealers are as follows :


(i) Advertising helps them to face competition in the market.
(ii) It enables them to sustain demand during off season and depression.
(iii) It helps to increase total sales.
(iv) It is helpful in introducing new products.
(v) It helps to build the firm's goodwill or image. [2014]

(h) No advertisement should be permitted :


(i) which decries any race, caste, colour, creed, nationality except for
the specific purpose of effective dramatisation, such as combating
prejudice;
(ii) which is against any of the objectives principles, or provision of the
constitution of India;
(iii) which will tend to incite people to crime or to promote disorder,
violence, or breach of law;
(iv) which exploits the national desires or furnishes, details of crime or
limitation thereof;
(v) which would adversely affect friendly relations with foreign states;

(i) Modern advertising exerts such a corrupting influence on cultural and


social life that it is not only wasteful but immoral. It degrades ethical
and aesthetic values through nude photographs and indecent language.
Many advertisements are highly objectionable and socially undesirable
as they encourage social evils like drinking and smoking. To some extent
advertising spoils the landscape and diverts attention of drivers. Some
advertisements may really be in poor taste but majority of them help to
improve social standards. The improved attitude towards hygiene is
attributable in no small measure to the extensive advertising of
detergents. [2017]

(j) Mention five difference between Advertising and Personal Selling


(Salesmanship) [Not in portion]

(k) (i) Distribution of Free Samples : Free samples of low-priced and repeat
sales items are distributed to selected people to gain consumer
acceptance and to popularise the product. This is an effective device
of sales promotion as consumers can test the product before buying
it. It is particularly useful in the introduction of new products and
frequently purchased convenience goods such as tea, coffee,
detergent, ketchup, etc. However, this device is costly and can be
used by big firms. It is not suitable for products which are very
expensive or do not give repeated sales.
(ii) Coupons : Some firms issue coupons to prospective buyers through
newspapers, direct mail, dealers, package and door-to-door
salesmen. A coupon is a certificate that entitles its holder to a
discount or gift on the purchase of a particular product. Coupons
are used to introduce new products and to increase sales of
established products or to increase sales during the slack period.
(iii) Premiums or Bonus Offers : A sales premium or bonus offer is the
offer of an article free of cost or at a nominal price on the purchase
of a specified product. For instance, one `Lux' toilet soap may be
given free on the purchase of an economy pack of `Surf' detergent
powder. A premium is also known as a combination offer.
(iv) Trading Stamps : Trading or bonus stamps are issued by retailers
to customers who buy goods from them. The number of stamps given
to a buyer depends upon the amount of purchases made by him.
This technique induces customers to buy their requirements from
the retailers. The purpose is to increase customer loyalty.
(v) Prize Contests : Under this device, consumers are given rewards
for analytical or creative thinking about the product in the form of
slogan writing, sentence completion, problem solving quiz, etc. Such
contests help to create consumers' interest in the product, provide
new ideas for advertising and may reveal buying motives. [2018]

(l) Advertising agency is a specialised organisation which provides all


advertising related services for some fee/commission. When it is owned
and operated by the advertiser himself, it is called in-house agency.
The main functions of an advertising agency are given below
(i) Planning : The advertising agency plans the advertising campaign.
A client firm delegates the responsibility of advertising planning
and execution to the agency.

187
X - ICSE (Commercial studies)  MT EDUCARE LTD.

(ii) Creation and Execution : Specific advertisements are created. The


advertising copy is written; the layout is prepared; illustrations are
drawn; photographs are finalised; and a correct mechanical form
for running it in the selected media is produced.
(iii) Co-ordination : The advertising agency co-ordinates several
activities. It often works with the client’s sales force and distribution
network to ensure the long-run success of the advertising
programme. Ideas, media, copy and decisions are co-ordinated
properly to project and implement the advertising programme.
(iv) Accounting : The advertising agency maintains proper accounts in
co-operation with the client. The account executives see to it that
the agency keeps to the stated plan. The amount of fees received
from the client and the payment of taxes, bills and other charges
are accounted for by the accountant.
(v) Media Planning : The advertising agency selects the media or a set
of suitable media for the client to reach the right type of audience
which is an important factor in media selection. The rates,
circulation, population, audience, income and other important
information are collected for the purpose.
(vi) Research : Research is a key function in an advertising campaign.
The decisions on creativity and media selection are taken on the
findings uncovered for research. [2019]

4. CONSUMER PROTECTION

(c) Two rights of a consumer


(i) The Right to Safety : This is the right to be protected against the
marketing of goods which are hazardous to life and property. There
are various risks involved in the consumption and use of products,
such as food, drugs, toys, electrical appliances, etc. For example,
gas cylinder, if not sealed properly may cause injury to life or even
death. The consumers have the right to get protection against such
risks.
(ii) The Right to be Heard : The consumer has a right to register his
dissatisfaction and get his complaint heard at appropriate forums.
This right to make protest. Grievances and claims of consumers

(d) Features of consumer Protection Act, 1986 are as follows:


(i) Social Welfare Law : It is highly progressive piece of social welfare
legislation. It is acclaimed as the Magna Carta of Indian consumers.
This is a unique law which directly pertains to consumer in the
market place and seeks to redress complaints arising therefrom.
(ii) Special Consumer Courts: The act has created special consumer
courts for enforcement of the rights of the consumers. [2016]

(ii) Right to be Informed : All the consumers have the 'right to be
informed' about the particulars of goods and services that they
purchase. They have the right to be informed about the quality,
quantity, potency, purity, standard and price of goods.
(iii) Right to Choose : It means assurance of access to variety of goods
and services at competitive price. In case of single supplier, the
consumer has the right to be assured of satisfactory quality and
service at a fair price.
(iv) Right to be Heard : The consumer's interest should receive due
consideration at appropriate forums relating to consumer welfare.
(v) Right to Seek Redressal : The consumer has the right to seek
redressal against unfair trade practices or exploitation and right to
fair settlement of the genuine grievances.
(vi) Right to Consumer Education : This includes knowledge about goods
and issues relating to consumer welfare. [2015,2017,2019]

5. E-COMMERCE
A.1. Long Answers :
(a) (i) Global Reach/Global Choice : The boundaries of electronic business
are not defined by geography or by national borders, but rather by
the coverage of computer networks. A customer can select from all
potential suppliers of a required product or service, regardless of
their geographical location.
(ii) Improved Competitiveness/Quality of Service : Electronic business
enables suppliers to improve competitiveness by becoming "closer to

(i) Promotions : Vacancies at higher levels may be filled up by promoting
persons working at lower levels. For example, when the present
sales manager of a company retires, one of the branch managers
may be promoted as the new sales manager. Promotion involves
shifting an employee to a higher post carrying a higher status and
more salary.
(ii) Transfers : Transfer means shifting an employee from one factory,
branch or office to fill vacancy in another factory, branch or office of
the company. For example, shortage of sales persons in one branch
may be met by transferring sales persons from another branch.
Transfer involves shifting an employee to a similar job without change
in status and salary. [2013, 2015]

(l) Two objectives of training are as under :


(i) To increase quantity and quality of employee performance.
(ii) To reduce accidents on the workplace and costs of supervision. [2013]

(m) Recruitment means identifying the sources of required staff and


contacting the sources to attract the sufficient number of candidates
from which the choice can be made. According to Edwin Flippo,
"recruitment is the process of searching for prospective employees and
stimulating them to apply for jobs in the organisation." [2015]

(n) Any four sources of external recruitment are as follows:


(i) Advertisements (ii) Employment exchanges
(iii) Placement Agencies (iv) Campus interviews. [2016]

(o) The main stages in the selection processs of workers in an organisation


are as follows :
(i) Application Blank : Recruits may be asked to apply on a blank form
supplied by the firm. Alternatively, they may write a letter of
application for the job. In either case the purpose is to obtain
necessary information about the candidate. The application blank
is one of the most widely used tools of selection due to several
resons.
(ii) Personal Interviews : There is no substitute for a personal interview
in selecting salespersons. A personal interview reveals
characteristics that cannot be observed by other means. For example,
an interview is the best way to find out the conversational ability,
speaking, voice and social intelligence of an applicant. Another
purpose of interview is to cross-check the information given in the
application blank. Interviews are the most widely used tool for
selection. These can be good predictors of success in the sales job.
(iii) Psychological Tests : Various types of tests are used in selecting
salespeople. Generally, a company uses a battery of tests rather
than a single test. Psychological tests are being used increasingly
in selection due to several reasons. First tests are sometimes better
predictors of job performance than any other selection tool.
(iv) Reference Check : Reference are of two types – employment and
personal. In case of experienced employees, the reference is the
previous employer. For a fresh graduate, the college principle my be
a reference. If handled properly, reference of either kind can be a
valuable aid in selection. References may disclose important facts
which may otherwise remain uncovered.
(v) Job Offer : When all the steps in the selection process have been
completed, ranking of the selected applicants is done. Job offers are
made by sending appointment letter to the individuals who are to
join the company. [2016]

(p) The main advantages of staff training are as follows :


(i) Higher Productivity : Training helps to improve the job performance
of employees. Well-trained employees are more efficient and, as a
205
X - ICSE (Commercial studies)  MT EDUCARE LTD.

result, the quantity and quality of performance increases. Quality


products help in increasing sales and profitability.
(ii) Reduced Supervision : Well-trained employees are self-reliant. They
do not require continuous and intensive supervision. Therefore, the
supervisors can save their time and energy.
(iii) Better Safety : Human error or negligence is the major cause of
accidents in industries. Employees who lack knowledge and skill
regarding their job often commit mistakes. Training makes
employees proficient and reduces accidents. Training makes
employees safety conscious and enables them to make better use of
safety devices.
(iv) Economy : Trained employees make better and economical use of
the materials and machinery. Proper handling of facilities reduces
wastage, spoilage and breakage. Loss due to damage is minimised.
(v) Higher Morale : Effective training improves job attitudes and self-
confidence of employees. They feel that management cares for them.
Trained employees can work better and thereby earn rewards. As a
result, their motivation and morale is boosted. Higher morale helps
to reduce absenteeism and labour turnover. [2016]

(q) (i) There may be inbreeding as fresh talent from outside is not obtained.
Internal candidates may not give a new outlook and fresh ideas to
business.
(ii) Unsuitable candidates may be promoted to positions of higher
responsibility because the choice is limited.
(iii) The employees may become lethargic if they are sure of time-bound
promotions. There may be infighting among those who aspire for
promotion within the organisation.
(iv) Internal recruitment cannot be a complete method in itself. The
enterprise has to resort to external recruitment at some stage
because all vacancies cannot be filled from within the organisation.
[2017]

(r) Two methods of off-the-job training are as follows :


(i) Coaching wherein a supervisor teaches the trainee through
observation, explanation, guidance, etc.
(ii) Job rotation wherein the trainee is moved from one job to another
to widen his knowledge and skills.

Two Methods of On-the-job training :


(i) Job Instruction Training (JIT) : This is the most popular form of on-
the-job training. It is also known as step-by-step training. It consists
of the following steps :
• Letting the trainees try out the job to show their understanding.
• Observing try out and providing necessary assistance and follow-up.
(ii) Job Rotation : This method involves the movement or transfer of
the trainee from one job to another, basically of similar nature,
either in the same department or different departments.

12. INDUSTRIAL RELATIONS, TRADE UNIONS AND SOCIAL SECURITY

A.1. Short Answers :


(a) The main objectives of industrial relations are as follows :
(i) To develop and maintain harmonious relations between management
and labour so essential for higher productivity of labour and industrial
progress in the country.
(ii) To safeguard the interests of labour as well as management by
securing the highest level of mutual understanding and goodwill
between all sections in industry. [2013]

(c) Gratuity is a terminal benefit to a worker when he leaves the employment


after working for a certain number of years. Originally, gratuity was an
ex-gratia or voluntary payment made by an employer to his employees
who retired after long and dedicated services. It is meant to protect the
superannuated employees against the risk of old age. Under the Payment
of Gratuity Act, 1972, gratuity is payable to an employee on the following
occasions :
(a) termination of employment on superannuation.
(b) termination of employment on retirement.
(c) termination of employment due to resignation.
(d) termination of employment due to disablement.
(e) termination of employment on death. [2013]

(d) Functions of a Trade Union are as follows:


(i) Self - Expression: Unions serve as a medium through which workers
can express their grievances and suggestions to employers.
(ii) Collective Bargaining: A trade union negotiates and bargains with
the management to settle the terms and conditions of employment.
[2016]
A.2. Long Answers :
(d) Under Provident Fund Scheme both employee and employer contribute
specified amount every month. This amount along with interest earned
thereon can be withdrawn by the employee for house construction,
marriage of children. Any balance is payable on the retirement of the
employee. [2014]

(e) Two reasons for workers joining a trade union are as under:
(i) To safeguard against exploitation by the employer.
(ii) To secure higher wages and better terms and conditions of
employment. [2014]

(f) The benefits of taking an insurance policy are given below :


(i) Protection against risk : Business is full of risks. Many of the
business risks can be covered through insurance. In the absence of
insurance, a business may be completely wiped out by a sudden
loss.
(ii) Increase in business efficiency : Insurance removes uncertainty
and relieves the businessmen of mental tension. They are

207
X - ICSE (Commercial studies)  MT EDUCARE LTD.

encouraged to work hard and improve the efficiency of business


operations. Insurance helps in expansion of business by providing a
sense of security.
(iii) Financial assistance : Insurance increases the capacity of business
to borrow. A businessman can raise loan by pledging life insurance
policy as collateral security. Moreover, redeemable life insurance
policy as collateral security. Moreover, redeemable debentures can
be issued on the collateral security of capital redemption policies.
(iv) Insurance of key employees : Key employees are those employees
whose absence or incapacity will cause a tremendous reduction in
the income of business. The survival and growth of business depends
on such employees. They are the most valuable asset of a business.
Life policies can be taken to protect against the loss arising out of
the death, disability, etc., of key executives.
(v) Continuity of operations : Insurance policies provide adequate funds
in the event of loss so that a business may be rebuilt and carried on
without much interruption or delay. Insurance ensures stability of
business.
(vi) Employee welfare : Through insurance a businessman can make
provision for the old age, disability, premature death, etc. of his
employees. Such provision motivates the employees to work hard
and enables the employer to fulfil his legal and social responsibility
towards the employees. [2014]

(g) Five objectives of Industrial Relations are as under :


(i) To develop and maintain harmonious relations between management
and labour so essential for higher productivity of labour and industrial
progress in the country.
(ii) To safeguard the interests of labour as well as management by
securing the highest level of mutual understanding and goodwill
between all sections in industry.
(iii) To establish and maintain industrial democracy based on the
participation of labour in the management and gains of industry, so
that the personality of every individual is fully recognised and
developed.
(iv) To avoid all forms of industrial conflict so as to ensure industrial
peace by providing better working and living standards to workers.
(v) To raise productivity in an era of full employment by reducing the
tendency of higher labour turnover and absenteeism. [2014, 2019]

(h) Trade unions are an essential feature of industry in every country. Trade
unions emerged as are action to the factory system and capitalistic
society. In the early stage of industrialisation, working class in the
absence of legal protection felt exploited at the hands of employers.
Workers joined hands to protect their interests through collective action.
A trade union is thus, an organised association of persons working
together. Under the Trade Unions Act, 1926, "a trade union is any
combination of persons, whether temporary or permanent, formed
primarily for the purpose of regulating the relations between workmen
and employers, or between workmen and workmen, or between employers
208
 MT EDUCARE LTD. X - ICSE (Commercial studies)

and employers, or for imposing restrictive conditions on the conduct of


any trade or business, and includes the federation of two or more trade
unions." [2015]

(i) Remedial Training : This type of training is designed to correct the


mistakes and shortcomings in the work behaviour and job performance
of employees. Some employees might have picked up faulty ways of doing
work. Remedial training is provided to remove these defects and to teach
the right methods of doing the job. [2018]

(j) Trade unions are an essential feature of industry in every country. Trade
unions emerged as a reaction to the factory system and capitalistic
society. In the early stage of industrialisation, working class in the
absence of legal protection felt exploited at the hands of employers.
Workers joined hands to protect their interests through collected action.
A trade union is, thus an organised expression of the needs, aspirations
and attitudes of the working class.
The following are the characteristics of trade unions :
(i) Association : A trade union is an association or combination of
employees. It has a large number of worker members from one or
more occupations.
(ii) Voluntary : Membership of a trade union is voluntary. Generally,
there is no legal or other pressure to join a trade union and a
person can join or leave the union on his free will.
(iii) Permanent : A trade union is a continuing or permanent rather
than a temporary or casual combination. It has to be a long term
body as otherwise it cannot achieve its objectives.
The main objectives of trade unions are as follows :
(i) To secure for the worker fairer wages in the light of the cost of
living and the prevailing standards of living,
(ii) To improve working conditions by securing shorter working hours,
better leave facilities, adequate social security, better housing and
education and other welfare benefits,
(iii) To assure the workers a share in the increased profitability of
industry through payment of adequate bonus. [2018]

(j) Insurance may be defined as a contract in writing whereby one party


(known as the insurer) undertakes to indemnify the other party (called
the insured) in consideration for a certain sum of money (called premium)
against any loss as a result of some uncertain event. The event or
contingency against which insurance is made is called the 'risk'. The
contract providing for insurance is known as ' insurance policy'. [2015]

(k) Two types of warehouses found in India are as under:


1. Public Warehouses : These warehouses are meant for use by
businessmen in general. Any businessman can store his goods in
these warehouses for some charge. Public warehouses may be owned
by Government, public trusts and other public authorities. The owner
of a public warehouse serves as an agent to the owner of the goods.
He is expected to take due care of the goods and return the same to
the owner. He enjoys a lien on the goods for this charges. Public
warehouses are located in places which are well connected by roads,
railways and water-ways/airways. Some of the public warehouses
are general warehouses while others are specialised warehouses.
General warehouses store a variety of goods whereas specialised
warehouses store one type of goods.
2. Bonded Warehouses : A bonded warehouse is established under a
bond with the customs authorities for storage of dutiable goods till
the payment of imports duty. The owner of a bonded warehouse
gives on undertaking not to relaease the goods until the customs
duty is paid. Bonded warehouses are located in port towns and are
licensed by the Government. These warehouses operate under the
vigilance of customs officials. Bonded warehouses accept imported
210
 MT EDUCARE LTD. X - ICSE (Commercial studies)

goods for storage before the payment of customs duty. Once the
duty is paid, goods are released on the authority of a warrant issued
by the customs authorities. [2015]

(l) Two advantages of rail transport over road transport are given below :
(i) Rail transport has a much larger carrying capacity than road
transport.
(ii) Rail transport is much more dependable and cheaper than road
transport. [2015]

(m) Two Disadvantages of Road Transport over Water Transport are as follows:
(i) Road transport is flexible as compared to water transport, as in road
transport door to door service is available, but door to door service is
not possible in case of water transport.
(ii) Road transport is faster mode of transport as compared to water
transport at short distances. [2016]

(o) Bonded warehouses are those warehouses which are licensed by the
government to accept imported goods for storage before the payment of
custom duties by importers of such goods. These warehouses are situated
near the ports. The goods are delivered by the warehouse-keepers only
after the payment of import duty has been made. Such warehouses are
called 'Bonded Warehouses' and goods stored therein are said to be 'in a
bond.' [2017]

(p) Advantages of rail transport are as follows :


(i) Larger capacity : Railways can carry a much larger quantity of
goods than motor vehicles. More wagons can be added to handle
larger volume of traffic. Therefore, railway transport is more suitable
for carrying bulky and heavy goods.
(ii) Dependable : Railways are more reliable because they follow fixed
routes, have regular time schedules and are available throughout
the year. Rail transport remains relatively unaffected by rains, floods,
fog, etc.
(iii) Safety : Railways are a safer mode of transport. Goods are protected
from sun, rain, snow, etc. There are also fewer breakdowns and
accidents. [2018]

(q) It is necessary to store goods to avoid violent fluctuations in prices.


Producers and merchants can secure better prices by storing goods in
warehouses. [2019]

(r) Logistics is the process of managing the movement and storage of raw
materials, parts and finished products from the supplier through the firm and
on to customers. It includes all the activities that faciliate the flow of product
from the source of raw materials to the point of final consumption Logistics is
also known as Physical Distribution Management
(PDM). [2019]

(s) As the name suggests, health insurance means insurance for protection
of health against various types of diseases. In case of ill health, the
insured person receives the cost of treatment/hospitalisation upto the
insured amount. Mediclaim is the most popular health insurance policy.
Under this policey, the insured person gets cashless facility from the
specified hospitals. The cost of treatment (upto 5 lacs) in the hospital is
directly paid for by the insurance company to the hospital.
Health insurance also covers loss of income from sickness in addition to
medical expenses. [2019]

A.2. Long Answers :


(a) "Insurance is a contract in which a sum of money is paid by the
assured in consideration of insures incurring the risks of paying a
large sum upon a given contingency." - Justice Tindal
Five principles of insurance.
(i) Utmost good faith (uberrimae fidei): As contrast of insurance is
based on mutual trust and confidence. It means that each party to
the insurance contract must disclose all the information which is
likely to influence the other party's decision to enter into
contract. The proposer knows better the facts relating to the risk.
Therefore, he must disclose all material facts known to him.
(ii) Insurable interest : A person must have interest in the non -
occurrence of the event being insured. He should stand in a position
that he would benefit from the existence of the subject matter and
would suffer a loss from its destruction or damage.
(iii) Indeminity : Indemnity implies compensation. According to this
principle, the insurer shall compensate the insured in case of a
loss against which the policy was issued. The purpose is to place
the insured financially in the same position in which he was before
the loss.
(iv) Subrogation : This principle is a corollary to the principle of
indemnity. According to the principle of subrogation, the insurer
becomes owner of the damaged property after compensating the
insured for loss. For example, a person insures his car for Rs.
2,50,000. The car is badly damaged in an accident. The insurance
company pays Rs 2,50,000 to the insured. The damaged car which
is worth Rs. 500,000 becomes the property of the insurance company.
(v) Contribution : This is also a corollary to the principle of indemnity.
According to the principle of contribution, If a person gets the same
property insured with two or more insurers, all the insurers will
contribute to the compensation to be paid to the insured. The
insurance companies will pay in proportion to the sums insured
with them. [2017]

212
 MT EDUCARE LTD. X - ICSE (Commercial studies)

(d) (i) Utmost good faith (Uberrimae fidei) : An insurance contract is


based on utmost good faith on the part of both the parties. It is the
legal duty of the proposer (one who wants to get an insurance policy)
to disclose all the material facts about the subject to be insured. A
material fact is one which would affect the judgement of the insurer
in assessing the degree of risk. It includes any communication made
to or any information received by die proposer.
The insurer has no access to the information which is in the
possession of the insured. Therefore, the insurer relies on the
information provided by the proposer. The amount of premium is
fixed on the basis of the information supplied by the proposer.
The insurer has no access to the information which is in the
possession of the insured. Therefore, the insurer relies on the
information provided by the proposer. If the proposer cancels or
withhelds any material facts, the insurer can repudiate the contract
of insurance. Thus, good faith requires each party to disclose all
the information at his command to the other party.
One party cannot induce the other party, by hiding material facts,
to enter into a contract of insurance which is disadvantageous to
the other party. If a party fails to disclose any material fact within
his knowledge, the other party can avoid the contract on grounds of
material misrepresentation.
(ii) Doctrine of subrogation : It implies that after indemnifying the
insured for his loss, the insurer becomes entitled to all the rights
and remedies relating to the property insured. The insure shall
step into the shoes of the insired, For example, X insures his house
against fire for Rs. 50,000. The house is put on fire by his neighbour
Y. X gets a claim of Rs 50,000 from Rs 30,000 from Y. X will have to
return Rs. 30,000 to the insurance company. Doctrine of subrogation
is applicable to all contracts of indemnity and it is not applicable to
life insurance. Insurer’s right of subrogation will extend only to the
extent of the sum insured.
Sum insured with an insurance company
Total sum insured with all the companies × Amount of loss
For Example, X gets an insurance policy of Rs 50,000 from A & Co.
Rs 30, 000 from B & Co and Rs 20,000 from C & Co. He suffers a
loss of Rs. 40,000 due to fire. X cannot claim

(f) Group Insurance is a scheme which provides insurance cover on the


lives of several persons under one insurance policy. It is generally taken
by an employer to insure the lives of his employees at a low cost. The
policy provides risk cover to an employee so long as he remains in the
service of the concerned employer. Insurance cover is provided to all the
employees without proof of insurability. Three features of Group Insurance
are as follows:
1. It is an insurance contract between an employer and the insurance
company.
2. The insurance premium is paid by the employer and a part of it is
deducted from the employee's wage or salary.
3. In case of death of an employee, the amount received by the employer
from the insurance company is paid to the nominee of the concerned
employee. [2013, 2018]

(g) Contribution : This is also a corollary to the principle of indemnity.


According to the principle of contribution, If a person gets the same
property insured with two or more insurers, all the insurers will
contribute to the compensation to be paid to the insured. The insurance
companies will pay in proportion to the sums insured with them.
[2014, 2018]

(i) Following are the five benefits of warehousing :


(i) Seasonal production : Goods which are produced seasonally (like
wheat, rice, etc.) must be stored so that they are supplied to the
consumers throughout the year. In order to supply such commodities
to the consumers, their storage is very much necessary.
(ii) Seasonal demand : Many goods (woollen cloths, umbrella, rain coats,
fans, etc.) are produced throughout the year but their demands are
seasonal. Such goods must be stored and preserved until the
214
 MT EDUCARE LTD. X - ICSE (Commercial studies)

beginning of the next season. To enable the producers producing


such goods to work throughout the year, goods produced by them in
off-season must be stored in warehouse.
(iii) Storage of perishable goods : Perishable goods like vegetables, fruits,
eggs, etc., are stored in cold storage to enable the consumers to
consume them regularly throughout the year. In the absence of
warehouses, the market for the sale of perishable goods will become
limited.
(iv) Production at one place but demand at various places : When
goods are produced at a distance from the consumers they must be
stored safely in the warehouses near the market so that the products
can be made available to customers at different places whenever
and wherever they are required by them.
(v) Stabilisation of prices : It is necessary to store the goods in the
warehouses to avoid the violent fluctuations, especially those goods
which are produced during a particular season.
(vi) Curing or processing : Some goods require curing or processing
before they are ready for sale. So, goods should be stored for curing
or processing. [2017]

(j) Indemnity: Indemnity implies compensation. According to this principle,


the insurer shall compensate the insured in case of a loss against which
the policy was issued. The purpose is to place the insured financially in
the same position in which he was before the loss. [2018]

(k) (i) Cost of Service : Ocean transport is the cheapest for carrying heavy
and bulky goods across the sea. But the speed is very slow and this
facility is available only between certain points. Air transport is the
costliest. It is, therefore, suitable only for goods which are highly
valuable or are urgently required.
(ii) Speed of transport : Air transport is the quickest because planes
fly at high speed and take the shortest route. Aeroplanes can provide
unbroken journey-over oceans, high mountains and dense forests.
Ocean transport is the slowest and is, therefore, unsuitable for
perishable goods.
The above description makes it clear that each mode of transport is
suitable only for a particular type of goods.
Air transport is suitable for light and precious articles which are to
be delivered quickly. Ocean transport is appropriate for carrying
heavy and bulky goods over long distances at the cheapest possible
cost. [2018]

(l) Demerits of air transport are as follows :


(i) Costly : Air transport is the costliest mode of transport. The cost of
operation and maintenance of aerodromes and aeroplanes is very
high. Therefore, air transport is suitable only for goods which are of
high value in relation to their bulk and weight.
(ii) Limited capacity : The load-bearing capacity of an aeroplane is
limited. Therefore, it is not suitable for carrying bulky and heavy
goods.
(iii) Risky : Risk of accidents and plane crash is high in .air transport.
Even a slight mechanical barrier or bird-hit may destroy a plane
with all the passengers and cargo on board. [2019]

(m) Doctrine of subrogation : It implies that after indemnifying the insured


for his loss, the insurer becomes entitled to all the rights and remedies
relating to the property insured. The insure shall step into the shoes of

The house is put on fire by his neighbour Y. X gets a claim of Rs 50,000
from Rs 30,000 from Y. X will have to return Rs. 30,000 to the insurance
company. Doctrine of subrogation is applicable to all contracts of
indemnity and it is not applicable to life insurance. Insurer’s right of
subrogation will extend only to the extent of the sum insured. The insurer
can recover only what the insured
Sum insured with an insurance company
× Amount of loss
Total sum insured with all the companies

For Example, X gets an insurance policy of Rs 50,000 from A & Co.


Rs 30, 000 from B & Co and Rs 20,000 from C & Co. He suffers a loss of
Rs. 40,000 due to fire. X cannot claim
50000
(a) Liability of A & Co. = × 40000 = Rs. 20,000
5000 + 30000 + 20000

30000
(b) Liability of B & Co. = × 40000 = Rs. 12,000
5000 + 30000 + 20000

20000
(c) Liability of C & Co. = × 40000 = Rs. 8,000
5000 + 30000 + 20000
Indemnity implies compensation. According to this principle, the insurer
shall compensate the insured in case of a loss against which the policy
was issued. The purpose is to place the insured financially in the same
position in which he was before the loss. this is mitigation of loss. [2019]

out in the form of circular note on a printed form. Each cheque has a
definite sum printed as its value. It bears the signatures of an authorised
official of the issuing bank and specimen signatures of the holder. A
commission is charged for issuing travellers' cheques. The holder of a
travellers' cheque can obtain cash from the agents or branches of the
bank at different places. The holder will sign the cheque and surrender
it and his signatures given on the cheque are verified. The agent or
branch will pay cash to the holder. Travellers' cheques are not technically
negotiable instruments. However, they enjoy a very wide acceptance
and are often used in the settlement of debts. [2018]

(r) A Bank draft is a type of cheque. It is drawn by a bank either on its own

crime but covers a range of illegal and illicit actions that are ommitted
in cyberspace. It is, however, differentiated from theft since, in this
case, the victim voluntarily and knowingly provides the information,
money or property to the perpetrator. It is also distinguished by the
way it involves temporally and spatially separated offenders. [2019]

A.2. Long Answers :


(a) A commercial bank serves as an agent for its customers in the following
ways :
(a) Collects cheques, bills, dividends, interest, rent, etc., on behalf of
customers.
(b) Pays cheques, bills, rent, taxes, interest, insurance premium, fees,
subscriptions, etc., on behalf of customers.
(c) Purchases and sells securities on behalf of customers as per their
instructions.
(d) Acts as trustee, executor, guarantor etc., in financial matters for
their customers. [2013]

(b) Central bank means the bank which regulates the entire banking system
in a country and carries out its monetary policy. Central bank is the
apex bank, and every country has a central bank. Reserve Bank of India
is the central bank of our country.
The Reserve Bank of India performs the following functions :
(i) Monopoly of Note Issue : Government grants the exclusive right to
the central bank to issue notes on its behalf. In India, one rupee
notes are issued by the Ministry of Finance. All other currency
notes are issued by the Reserve Bank of India.
(ii) Government's Bank : The central bank acts as a banker, fiscal
agent and advisor to the Government. It makes and receives
payments on behalf of the Government, manages public debts for
the Government. As a fiscal agent the central bank advises the
Government on matters concerning monetary and banking policies.
(iii) Controller of Credit : Commercial banks create credit by lending
money. They may create too much or too little credit. The level of
credit in the country causes fluctuations in the price level. Thus
the central baks controls credit in the economy through various
quantitative and qualitative methods of credit control.
(iv) Custodian of Foreign Exchange : The central bank is the sole
custodian of gold and foreign currency reserves of the country.
Foreign exchange reserves are needed for making payments to
foreign countries.

219
X - ICSE (Commercial studies)  MT EDUCARE LTD.

(v) Maintaining the Exchange Rate : Exchange rate is the rate at


which the home currency can be exchanged for a foreign currency.
Whenever there are wide fluctuations in the exchange rate, the
central bank, buys and sells foreign currencies to stabilise the
exchange rate. The central bank is authorised to fix and change the
exchange rate ratio. [2015]

(c) The central bank provides clearing house facility to the commercial banks.
In other words, it settles the claims of commercial banks through a
process of book entries. The daily balances between the commercial
banks can easily be adjusted by means of debit and credit entries in
their respective accounts with the central bank. Let us take an example
to explain this process. Suppose, the Bank of Baroda has to pay an amount
of Rs 20 lakhs to the Punjab National Bank. To settle its due the Bank of
Baroda will issue a cheque of Rs 20 lakhs to the Punjab National Bank,
The Reserve Bank of India will debit the account of the "Bank of Baroda"
by Rs 20 lakhs and credit the account of the Punjab National Bank by
the same amount.
The clearing house facility offers several advantages. Firstly,
settlement between different commercial banks can be made conveniently
through book entries. Secondly, the possibilities of cash withdrawals
during an economic crisis are reduced. Therefore, it helps to stabilise
the banking system in the country. The State Bank of India carries out
these settlements where the Reserve Bank of India has no office.
[2013, 2019]

(d) ROLE OF COMMERCIAL BANKS IN THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT


OF A COUNTRY :
Banking is the lifeline of a country's economy, because the economy
cannot function smoothly without a sound commercial banking system.
In the words of James Stephenson, "Banks are the distributors and
protectors of that liquid capital which is the life-blood of any nation."
Commercial banks contribute to the economic development of a country
in the following ways :
1. Safety of Money : Money deposited in a bank remains safe. Precious
articles too can be kept in the safe custody of banks in lockers.
2. Increase in Credit : Customers with bank accounts enjoy better
creditworthiness in the business world. Banks also provide credit
to their customers.
3. Savings : Banks encourage the habits of saving and thrift among
people. They mobilise public savings and invest them in productive
avenues. They increase the rate of capital formation in the country.
4. Transfer of Money : Banks provide a convenient and safe means of
sending money from one place to another. Moreover, payment through
cheques provides a legal proof of the transaction.
5. Collection of Money : Banks collect and realise the bills, interest,
etc., on behalf of their customers.
6. Facilitate Foreign Trade : Foreign trade cannot be carried on
smoothly without banking. Banks receive and make payments,
220
 MT EDUCARE LTD. X - ICSE (Commercial studies)

provide credit and deal in foreign exchange. They protect importers


from the risk of loss on account of exchange rate fluctuations. They
issue letters of credit and provide information on the
creditworthiness of importers. They give financial references on
behalf of their customers.
7. Moral Advantage : Banks encourage moral and ethical behaviour
on the part of their customers.
8. Mobilisation of Savings : Bank mobilise the scattered savings of
people in a country.
9. Capital Formation : Banks channelise the mobilised savings into
business and industry. The capital so formed helps in the economic
growth of the country. Banks also help, companies in raising capital
through issues of shares, debentures, etc. [2013]

(e) These are joint stock banks which receive deposits from the public and
business firms. They also provide short-term and medium-term loans to
customer. These banks carry on all kinds of banking functions within
the framework or the Banking Regulations Act, 1949 in India. Commercial
banks are classified into two broad categories-scheduled and non-
scheduled banks. Scheduled banks are those included in the second
schedule to the Reserve Bank of India Act. Commercial banks not included
in this schedule are non-scheduled banks.
Commercial banks perform the following functions :

commercial bank. It attracts deposits for the purpose of making loans
and investments. People deposit their money in banks for the sake
of safety and for earning interest, A commercial bank receives
deposits from individuals, firms and other institutions. Banks offer
different types of deposit accounts to suit the needs of various
depositors. Public deposits constitute the main resources of a bank.
Banks receive the following types of deposits :
(a) Fixed Deposits - A lumpsum is deposited for a fixed time period.
(b) Savings Deposits - This account is opened for the purpose of
depositing small saving.
(c) Current Deposits - Such deposits are made by business firms

15. STRIVING FOR A BETTER ENVIRONMENT

A.1. Short Answers :


(a) Efficient technology means the technology that helps to raise productivity
and reduce the time and costs involved in the production of products
and services. For example, a computer is more efficient than a typewriter
or a calculator. Eco-friendly technology is the technology that does not
have a negative effect on ecology or natural environment. It involves
reduction in the amount of raw material used, reduction in energy used,
reducing pollution, recycling material, using renewable materials,
ensuring that goods are durable and judicious use of resources keeping
the future in mind. [2013]

(b) CHIPKO ANDOLAN (MOVEMENT) : In the 1970s, organised resistance


to the destruction of forests spread throughout India. This came to be
known as the Chipko Andolan (movement). The Chipko movement was
led by a group of villagers in the Uttarakhand region. They opposed
commercial logging. The movement is known for its tactic of hugging
trees to prevent them from being cut down by the contractors. Among
the women who created the history in saving forests, the most prominent
was Gauri Devi of Latu village. She led the first all-women action to save
their community forest in March 1974. Her example was repeated by
counteless women who came to form the backbone of the Chipko
movement. Another prominent leader of the Chipko movement was
Sunderlal Bahuguna. He was a Gandhian activist whose appeal to Mrs.
Indira Gandhi resulted in a ban on the felling of green trees. He undertook
a 5000-kilometre trans-Himalaya Foot March (Padyatra) in 1981-83 to
spread the Chipko message. Bahuguna coined the Chipko slogan : “Ecology
is permanent economy.” Ghanshyam Raturi, a poet, wrote the following
poem describing the method of embracing the trees to save them from
felling.
‘Embrance the trees and save them from being felled;
The property of our hills, save them from being looted’. [2013]

(c) Environmental ethics means the set of moral standards which guide us
how to interact with our environment. These standards indicate what is
the right conduct according to the society. For example, we should not
pollute air, water, soil, etc. in our everyday routine. A factory owner is
expected to avoid pollution of air and local water bodies. We have a
moral duty to conserve limited natural resources because future
generations have an equal right to these resources. Moreover, justice
requires that we handover to our children and grand children a world
that is not worse than the one we inherited from our parents and grand
parents. [2015]

(d) Following are the examples :


(i) National Environment Awareness Campaign (NEAC).
(ii) Eco Clubs and National Green Corps (NGC).
(iii) Communication, Education and Public Awareness (CEPA).
(iv) The Green Wave. [2017]

(e) Sustainable Use of Water : The following steps can be taken for this
purpose.
(i) Build many small reservoirs in place of a few big projects.
(ii) Encourage and improve traditional methods of rainwater harvesting
and storage.
(iii) Use drip irrigation and other water conservation measures in
agriculture.
(iv) Prevent leakages from dams and canals. [2018]

(f) People will conserve and restore natural resources only when they are
sensitive to the environment and realise the importance of ecological
balance. Environmental sensitivity in people can be created only through
major public awareness programmes. Public must learn to act as a watch-
dog to protect its environment from deterioration and destruction. Well-
informed citizens and environmentalists have the duty to take the
initiative in making the common man aware of the need for ecological
restoration and conservation. Most of the local people in villages and
indigenous tribes possess an intimate knowledge of nature and wildlife.
Traditions, taboos and religious beliefs deeply rooted in native people
have been an effective instrument of conserving nature and wildlife
since time immemorial. Ancient traditions protect several plants such
as Peepal and Banyan as well as birds, monkeys, snakes and animals.
In fact, some people worship some trees, birds and animals. Milk is
offered to snakes, bread is fed to cows and dogs, bananas are fed to
monkeys, grains are fed to pigeons, flower is fed to ants as a matter of
religious beliefs and rituals. [2018]

(g) (i) Appointment of Officers and their Powers and Functions (i) Without
prejudice to the provisions of sub-section (3) of section 3, the Central
Government may appoint officers with such designation as it thinks
fit for the purposes of this Act and may entrust to them such of the
powers and functions under this Act as it may deem fit.
224

(ii) Power to give Directions Notwithstanding anything contained in


any other law but subject to the provisions of this Act, the Central
Government may, in the exercise of its powers and performance of
its functions under this Act, issue directions in writing to any person,
officer or any authority and such person, officer or authority shall
be bound to comply-with such directions. [2019]

A.2. Long Answers :


(a) Environmental values can be inculcated in public through education
and awareness. Along with moral values, significance of natural resources
and the need for their conservation should be taught in schools and
colleges. Environmental issues are, therefore, woven new into the entire
curriculum rather than being an additional subject. However,
environmental or other values cannot simply be taught through books.
Example and disciplined practice are required. For example, when
students observe their teacher caring for water, soil, energy, trees, etc.
they are likely to imbibe the teacher's behaviour. Environmental value
oriented education may consist of the following steps :
(i) Develop suitable literature in the form of comics, slogans, charts
and other child friendly materials.
(ii) Compile short stories having strong value components.
(iii) Develop literature on human values for teachers.
(iv) Develop audio and video programmes both for teachers and students.
(v) Design special literature for parents.
(vi) Develop syllabus of all subjects to inculcate right values.
(vii) Organise specific in-service courses and training programmes for
teachers on value education.
(viii) Establish resource centres on value oriented education at state,
regional and national levels.
(ix) Hold discussions on the negative impact of economic growth on
environment.
(x) Create awareness among all so that everyone has a sacred duty to
protect the environment. [2013]

(b) Sustainable development means the development that meets the needs
of present generations without compromising the ability of future
generations to meet their own needs. For development to be sustainable,
it must take into account social and ecological factors in addition to
economical aspects of the living and non-living base both in the long run
as well as the short term. Three main elements of sustainable
development are well-being of the human society, well being of the
environment, and sustainability over time.
The two example of sustainable use of resources are as follows :
Sustainable Use of Water : The following steps can be taken for this
purpose.
(i) Build many small reservoirs in place of a few big projects.
(ii) Encourage and improve traditional methods of rainwater harvesting
and storage.

225
X - ICSE (Commercial studies)  MT EDUCARE LTD.

(iii) Use drip irrigation and other water conservation measures in


agriculture.
Sustainable use of Energy : The steps needed for this purpose are as
follows :
(i) Use alternative sources of fuel such as hydrogen, methanol, biogas,
solar energy, etc.
(ii) Develop fuel efficient and smokeless chullahs.
(iii) Solar cooking does not burn any fuel and is the most eco-friendly
option. [2014]

(c) Recycling is the process of converting waste materials into reusable


objects to prevent waste of potentially useful materials.
Environmental values refer to the moral standards which people are
expected to follow while interacting with nature and its resources.
For instance, we should not pollute air, water and soil in our daily
activities. A factory owner is expected not to release untreated factory
waste or effluents into local water bodies. Self-interest many create
and ethical diemma. For example, in order to treat factory waste some
expenditure is necessary. If the factory owner does not want to incur
such expenditure he faces the dilemma - saving cost versus, facing public
criticism.
Environmental values make people environmentally conscious. Teaching
environmentaly values encourages people to carry cloth bags, use organic
manure, keep surroundings clean, respect other people’s things, refuse
use of polybags, styro foam containers, etc., reuse plastic and glass
containers and recycle paper to save trees, and to plant more trees. [2016]

(d) An eco-friendly technology is the technology of production which does


not harm the environment in any way. Eco-friendly technology is also
known as sustainable technology. It is based on the use of renewable
resources as raw material, energy and transformation through highly
efficient biotechnology to produce environment friendly products.
Eco-efficiency technology on the other hand uses less and less resources
to produce more and more goods. Both these concepts play very important
role in the conservation of environment in the following manner :
(i) Use of renewable resources : Eco-friendly technology uses renewable
resources for the production of goods and services. The renewable
resources are replenishable resources like sunlight, rain water,
wind, etc., are some of the examples of renewable resources.
(ii) Reduction in raw material : Eco-efficiency leads to the reduction
in the amount of the raw material used. The wise use of raw
materials will lead to less wastage and less pollution.
(iii) Recycling material : This reduces the amount of waste, landfill
spaces and the pressure on using newer resources. Many waste
products can be recycled and this saves the raw material and cost
of production.
(iv) Reducing pollution : The use of eco-friendly and eco-efficiency
technology reduces the hazardous effects of pollutants on
environment. Use of technologies like wind power, solar power, hydro
power and biogas are some examples of eco-friendly and eco-eficiency
technologies. [2017]

(e) Function of Central Pollution Centrol Board


(i) Air quality/pollution : CPCB runs nation-wide programs of ambient
air quality monitoring known as National Air Quality Monitoring
Programme (NAMP). The network consists of 621 operating stations
covering 262 cities/ towns in 29 states and 5 Union Territories of
the country. The monitoring of meteorological parameters such as
wind speed and wind direction, relative humidity (RH) and
temperature were also integrated with the monitoring of air quality.
(ii) Water quality/pollution : Fresh water is a finite resource essential
for use in agriculture, industry, propagation of wildlife and fisheries
and for human existence. India is a riverine country. It has 14
major rivers, 44 medium rivers and 55 minor rivers besides numerous
lakes, ponds and wells which are used as primary source of drinking
water even without treatment. Most of rivers being fed by monsoon
rain, which is limited to only three months of the year, run dry
throughout the rest of the year often carrying wastewater discharges
from industries or cities or towns endangering the quality of our
scarce water resources.
(iii) Urban area programs (Ecocity Program) : CPCB programs for urban
areas, also known as EcoCity Program comes under X Plan to improve
environment through implementation of identified environment
improvement projects in the selected towns and cities.
(iv) Municipal Solid Waste rules : Every municipal authority comes
under the Municipal Solid Wastes (Management and Handling)
Rules, 2000 (MSW rules, 2000) and responsible for collection,
segregation, storage, transportation, processing and disposal of
municipal solid.
(v) Noise Pollution/Rules : According to S.O. 123 (E) by MoEF, various
sources like industrial activity, construction activity, generator sets,
loud speakers, public address systems, music systems, vehicular
horns and other mechanical devices have deleterious effects on
human health. CPCB has the responsibility to regulate and control
noise producing and generating sources with the objective of

Answer 1
(a) Lost and Found
It was the year 1990. The world was yet to be on the verge of digital speed.
No mobile phones. No satellite television. Though computerized train tickets
were available, email tickets' advent were still a long way off. Against such a
backdrop Shekhar's brother Rajesh got married. A lot of relatives from all
over the country and a few from abroad had come. Shekhar had gone to see
off his cousin Krishna and family at Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus
(then known as Victoria Terminus) . They were proceeding to Bangalore.
Shekhar's aunt, Kamala, who had an unconfirmed AC ticket for Coimbatore
dated a few days later, wanted to get it cancelled and travel by plane instead.
Shekhar had thus carried the ticket and planned to cancel it after seeing off
the travel party to Bangalore. After the customary banter, Shekhar bade
good bye to his cousin and family. He then proceeded to the ticket counter.
On reaching the counter, Shekhar tucked his hand into his pant pocket. To
his horror, the train ticket was not in the pant pocket! He searched his
other pant pocket and his shirt. But it just was not there. He rushed back
into the platform thinking that it may have fallen in the Bangalore train. But
the train had already left. Cursing his luck and stupefied as how the ticket
had done its vanishing trick, Shekhar headed home.
Wondering what he would tell his father at home, Shekhar had decided on
one thing. He would definitely pay for his aunt Kamala's flight ticket to
Coimbatore. It was a steep Rs. 1000 yet he would bear it. He rang the doorbell
of his house. Aunt Kamala answered the bell with a beaming smile. With a
choked throat Shekhar said, "I have misplaced your ticket. But I will pay for
your plane ticket. I am really sorry to…." Aunt Kamala interrupted, "Is this
the ticket you have lost?" Shekhar was a bit perplexed. He remembered
distinctly that he had the ticket in his pocket while seeing off his relatives
to Bangalore. Then how is it that the ticket was there in aunt Kamala's
hand??? Then the unraveling of the mystery was done. Shekhar's ticket had
slipped out of his pocket onto Krishna's seat. Krishna noticed the ticket once
the train left. Wondering how he could reach the ticket out to Shekhar, the
train dragged into the next stop at Dadar. A young lad who had come to see
off his uncle walked up to Krishna and said, "Uncle, do you recognize me? I
am Satish, your colleague Purshottam's nephew." Krishna realized that this
was a god sent opportunity. He requested Satish to deliver this lost ticket at
Shekhar's place. Satish then travelled to Shekhar's place and handed over
the lost ticket that was found even before the latter returned.

democracy. This astonished me to a great extent. I had always been fascinated
by the definition of democracy written in our Civics textbooks as a government
of the people, for the people and by the people. Could there be a concept
better than this for an egalitarian society? How shameful it is that one of
the best concepts to govern the world is being considered as one of the worst
failures! Just a simple introspect has made me conclude that education
ought to be the major harbinger of a successful democracy. I support the
above statement without an iota of doubt.
A major impediment to a proper development is lack of education. Today all
political parties announce populist policies and freebies during pre-election
campaigning. They even carry out these promises. But, is there anything
like a free lunch? Will this not have an effect on the economy and the
infrastructure? These sorts of sops will only (mis)manage an economy that
is akin to a deflated football. If people get themselves educated, they will be
able to see through the sly ploy of the political parties. Fortunately every
political party that comes to power does advocate various simple development
schemes like cheap or free education for the economically backward and
underprivileged sections of the society. People from these strata of society
need to take advantage of these schemes and put themselves on the path to
progress. It will not only create within them a state of awareness about their
basic rights but also make them aim higher as far as their professional
careers are concerned. This in turn will improve the overall economy and
stop the poor from depending only on redundant freebies.
Thus I personally feel that education is an indispensable part of a democracy.
Let us not shun or undermine it. We need to use it to the maximum for a
healthier nation. A slogan in Marathi when translated, talks about education
of girls being the key element to progress. Similarly, education of every
citizen ensures a successful and flourishing democracy.

(c) Journey Back Home


The longing to get back home drives me impatient to hear the final school
bell at 3.30. All hell breaks loose inside the class when all the students
want to get back to that heaven called home. We then move out of the school
in a disciplined manner though our instinct asks us to break free of the
shackles of the institution and celebrate the start of our journey back home..
After a customary fight as to who should occupy the window seat, the journey
commences. No sooner does the bus take a turn out of the school compound
than it comes to a seemingly eternal halt stuck in choc-a-bloc traffic. A lady
with a toddler in arms begs for alms from the occupants of swanky cars and
rickshaws. Some oblige with a 2-rupee coin or even a ten-rupee note and
some do not bother to look at them. They even beg from the students inside
the bus. Some students in a friendly banter point to the student sitting
adjacent and say, "Look, I am not rich, he is." After 15 to 20 minutes, the
bus finally passes the signal.
The bus then takes a wider road where thankfully the traffic is not that
heavy. On the pavements one can see hawkers shouting out their wares
which range from ladies dress materials to hand bags and smart shirts to
fancy shoes. One can hear these hawkers calling out to customers who have
moved ahead due to an unacceptable price of a commodity. As the bus moves
ahead my attention shifts to a place where I would like to settle as a resident-
--- the shopping mall. Outside the mall, constant bickering among the
rickshaw drivers as to who was in the line first to ferry customers is a
common sight. One finds ladies carrying bags whose number will require a
ten hands. As the bus slowly reaches my residential vicinity, a certain level
of happiness engulfs me. The monotony never really wears out the happiness.
Nothing is more heavenly than the aroma of the snacks that my mother
makes as I reach home. After I gorge on the snacks, I settle down to prepare
myself for the next day at school. It ranges from writing home work to
completing assignments to working on projects.

Aroma- fragrance
Gorge- eat heavily [20]

(d) New Horizons


With great amount of reluctance, I sat in my father's official car. My father
had been transferred from Chandigarh to Lucknow recently. Our chauffeur
Hari Singh bhaiya with a smile on his face greeted me. "Good morning Baba."
His tone looked a bit artificial possibly because he was forcing himself into
familiarity. The Hindi he spoke was quite articulate unlike the Punjabi tinge
prominently seen in Delhi and Chandigarh. In about ten minutes we reached
the school.
231
X - ICSE (English paper 1)  MT EDUCARE LTD.

I got down from my car and started a slow lifeless walk towards the gate.
Hari Singh bhaiya cried from behind, "I will come to fetch you at 3pm
baba."Though I heard him, I was in no mood to respond as I was engulfed by
the thought of facing new people. In an unsure voice I enquired as to where
standard 9 division B students were queued up in the assembly. I joined the
relevant line and after the regular prayer and pledge all of us went to our
respective classrooms. Though I am sure every student in my class would
have noticed me, some displayed their expressions openly while others be-
haved as though I never existed. My class teacher walked in and announced,
"Today we have a new student in our class. His name is Parth Goswami. He
stood first in standard 8 at his school in Chandigarh." When she made this
statement her eyes roved towards Sandesh in the class with a wry smile. I
realized that Sandesh was the topper in this class. I had always been taught
by my parents that never to look with envy towards a competitor. Instead I
should strike a friendship, try to learn from him and improve upon my weak-
nesses.
At recess time, I walked up to Sandesh and extended a hand of friendship
while introducing myself. Sandesh reacted with a somewhat cold and sur-
prised look which changed like instantly to a smile of warmth. He said, "I
actually thought that you would look at me with envy but you have behaved
exactly the way my parents advise me to deal with a rival." Both of us laughed
heartily and hugged each other warmly. I now knew that a friendship that
goes beyond the schooling years had been established. The rest of the time
in class I went through drowned all the apprehensions and I was sure to
have a great time in this school. Good friends are truly a gift of God. It was
indeed a new horizon.
Vocabulary
Chauffeur- driver
Articulate-clear
Tinge- flavor
Engulfed- surrounded
Roved- moved
Wry- sarcastic
Apprehensions- doubts [20]

(e) Toil by the Tender


The picture below is a grim reminder of the fact that eradication of child
labour is still a far off goal. The girl does not seem to be more than ten years
of age. This tender creation of God seems to be one who was born to toil. The
location is that of a construction site. Presumably her parents should also be
workers here. It is a well-known fact that these workers do not have a
permanent dwelling of their own. Their nomadic existence and lack of
awareness only leads to passing on the legacy of illiteracy to their progeny.
Governments irrespective of their political origins and ideologies have always
advocated themselves with the cause of eradicating child labour. However a
lackadaisical approach and a poor follow-up on part of the enforcing authorities
have only impeded the long cherished dream of child labour abolition. Putting
the onus only on the government would also be unfair. NGOs and the citizens
need to join hands and work towards spelling an end to this societal shame.
What exactly is the root cause of child labour? Nobel Prize winner Kailash
Satyarthi categorically denies the contention that poverty drives families to
indulge their children into labour. Big metros like Mumbai, Delhi and others
232
 MT EDUCARE LTD. X - ICSE (English paper 1)

witness a lot of affluent families employing children below the age of twelve
as caretakers of their toddling children. There have also been cases of barbaric
treatment of these children. In this digital age which aims at improving the
quality of life and making the most difficult things simpler, prevalence of
child labour comes as a shocking reality. Every citizen should therefore
espouse himself with eradication of child labour. Education is the basic right
of every child. A philanthropist approach not only by the affluent but also the
lesser income groups can convert this dream into a reality. A collective
conscious effort from every strata of society will help abolish child labour.

Dear Ayush,

Hope you have recovered from your bout of Malaria. I would suggest that you
take rest for a couple of days even after you feel better as there will still be
some weakness because of convalescence.
You were really missed for the interschool drama competition. But the good
news that I would like to share that we won the award for the best presenta-
tion. All of us were skeptical about Parth taking your place in the drama. But
surprisingly he too performed to expectations. Frankly before entering the
stage I was feeling quite nervous. I felt as though I would forget all the
dialogues. However, as soon as I entered the stage and started mouthing my
dialogues all my nervousness vanished into thin air. Right from the start to
the end, our comical drama held the attention of the audience. Once the
drama ended, there was a big applause from everyone. You were really
missed, Ayush. Anyway, I am sure that we will put up a better drama next

SPECIMEN PAPER - 2019-20
STEP UP ANSWER SHEET

Answer 1.
(a) Filling the Generation Gap
Rohit and Rateesh touched their grandfather Savlaram Bhosale’s feet. It
was a special day indeed. Their enterprise ‘Bhosale Fertilizers’ had won the
State Government Award for the Best Public Service for Social Cause. If
there was one person whom they had to thank, it was their grandfather
Savlaram.
A couple of decades back, their parents Arun Bhosale and Hirabai Bhosale
had hung themselves. The third successive drought in Marathwada in as
many years and piling debts had brought them to this precarious position. At
the age of sixty-five this was not something Savlaram had asked for. As part
of the daily chore now, he made tea for his grandchildren. Five-year old
Rateesh, a bit young to realize the gravity of the situation unlike seven-year
old Rohit, complimented his grandfather, “Grandpa, if you set up a tea-stall
in a city, you can mint money.” Savlaram gave a subconscious nod as he
was engulfed by the stress of taking care of his grandchildren all alone.
Then the truth of Rateesh’s statement struck him!
The next day they travelled to Pune. With his bare finances he put up a tea-
stall close to a shanty where he took up his abode for him and the children.
The children were admitted to a municipal school nearby. Their academic
excellence won them scholarships and sponsors for their education in
Agricultural Engineering. In spite of job offers from top companies, they set
up an enterprise of their own and created an awareness among the drought-
stricken villages about using the right fertilisers and rotating the crops.
Their efforts won them an award from the state government. For this
achievement, did they have anyone else to thank other than their
grandfather? Had he not shown the steely resolve of bringing up his two
grandsons, they would never have achieved what they did. Their parents
had given up a battle that was far from being lost. But it was their grandfather
who on seeing the situation of despair in his village decided to shift to make
ends meet. He put up a stall that was razed as an illegal structure on more
than a few occasions. But without losing hope, he sold close to two hundred
cups of tea a day with a lot of office goers as his regular patrons from the
nearby commercial centres. He did all this right after the age of sixty-five
just to support his two grandsons in giving them education and making
them successful professionals. He had filled the gap that had been left void
by his son and daughter-in-law. [20]

(b) The Third Eye


A cell phone thief was nabbed within two hours of committing the crime.
The police were able to track him down easily. Thanks to the closed-circuit
televisions at all the railway stations. The images were flashed across all
the police stations in the city which facilitated the police zeroing in on him
within no time. This brings one of the most debated questions. Should there
be a limit to the places where closed-circuit cameras can make their way?
More importantly, should the classrooms in schools have closed-circuit
cameras? Definitely the advantages of having them clearly outweigh the
disadvantages.
237
X - ICSE (English paper 1)  MT EDUCARE LTD.

One may argue that indulging in pranks and mischief is a part of every
child's disposition. This may result in the child trying to control his behaviour
as the camera plays a big deterrent. These feelings may get pent up and he
may show excessive overbearing behaviour when he is not in view of the
cameras. Taking into account these aspects, the teachers need to be
sensitised as to which actions of the student need to be taken as unacceptable
and which need to be given the turn of a blind eye. The teachers need to
identify themselves with the age group of the students. They need to
remember what they did as children. They need to empathise with the
children remembering their own wards.
Closed-circuit cameras will be useful in varied situations of the classroom.
With increasing reports of sexual abuse of small school children within
lonely classrooms by staff, these cameras can play a role in nailing the
culprit. Rare instances of high-handed behaviour by the teachers can also
be kept under check. There have been several cases where the studious
and methodical students find their notebooks missing just prior to the exams.
The cameras in the classroom will help in identifying the real mischief-
monger. But students who are caught in this act ought to be more counselled
than rebuked. In fact, in all the instances when students are caught in
some sort of mischief, the school should not resort to corporal punishment.
School authorities need to understand that the closed-circuit camera
television should be used as a progressive tool and not as a policing equipment.
Otherwise the whole purpose of a camera will be defeated. Let the closed-
circuit television not be a monster- a name which Roald Dahl gave the
television. Let it truly be a third eye that helps positively in a classroom.
[20]
(c) Ruffling Responsibilities

Our class teacher, Mrs. Menon told me that the following Monday, I will
have to ensure that the students from standard five stand in a single file as
the Vice-President of our school Mr. A.K. Kapoor wanted to address the
students on the occasion of Children's day. I was elated at this job given to
me for two reasons. One reason was for giving me the responsibility and the
other that I had to only control students from standard five who I thought
being much younger than I was, would be easy to control. When I reached
home, I told my elder brother who was now in college about this onus on my
shoulders. I also told him that I need to take care only of standard five
students which would not be much of a problem. He gave a smile and extended
his hand, "All the best." The smile looked more smirky than genuine. However,
the excitement of the responsibility paled the necessity of reading too much
into the smile.
Finally, Monday arrived. I reached the assembly catchment area early as
instructed. Standard five boys, about seventy in number slowly started
trickling in. As was the normal practice the line had to be in the ascending
order of height. I was asked to ensure two lines of thirty-five boys each.
When I asked the shortest boy to take the first position in the queue, he
started arguing with me telling that he was not the shortest. I actually felt
like spanking him but we were strictly instructed against manhandling. As
the Vice-President's address started all the students were asked to sit
down. Just as I was about to control one boy from pelting small stones in the
air, another would indulge in the same mischievous act. Hooting sounds,
hitting on the back of the head of the boy ahead in the line were some of the
238
 MT EDUCARE LTD. X - ICSE (English paper 1)

brattish behaviour they indulged in. Their pranks were getting so much on
my nerves that I started praying when this assembly would finally end.
When my brother returned home in the evening, he asked me about the
morning experience. I realized why he had given that smirk the previous
day. Looking at my non-response he said, "No job is really easy. Even if it is
one that you feel you can enjoy, you have to support it with a lot of hard
work." It was truly a learning experience. It dawned on me that even if you
pick up a job with passion, you have to support with hard work and a lot of
patience. [20]

(d) Mercurial Madness


On the day my final exams got over, I decided that I would get up at 5.30am
the next day. Nikunj and I met near Nehru Road junction. Even before we
commenced jogging, we had already started burning a few calories. Thanks
to the humid weather in Mumbai. Summer mornings are normally known to
be pleasant but over the years the discomfort of the heat is nowadays
experienced at any time of the day.
The melodious crooning of the pleasant voiced birds like the lark and the
cuckoo too had almost vanished. We had earlier decided that we will jog for
about an hour. But within twenty minutes of jogging, we were sapped of all
energy and we could not carry on any further. We decided to have a glass of
lime juice at a stall to balance out the electrolyte loss. I saw a few thatched
hutments on the roadside. The ladies were busy plastering the exteriors of
the houses with cow dung to keep the interiors cool. The heat being highly
unbearable, I had to switch on the fan once I entered home. Every day after
boiling rice, my mother as per a religious tradition, places a small quantity
of rice on the window-sill of the kitchen for the crow. That day a crow even
after having its regular quota of rice continued cawing. My mother kept a
small bowl of water. The crow within no time finished off the liquid just
indicating how parched its throat was. Just across the building that I stay,
there is a small marshy pond. After lunch as I was relaxing in my balcony, I
saw a couple of buffaloes basking in this pond. Only after a lot of bullying by
the herdsman, did the buffaloes decide to budge out of the pond.
I thus realized that the effect of heat during summers has been getting
worse with every passing year. I do not think any sort of introspection is
required. The clichéd statement that man needs to respect nature, though
repetitive and irritating, needs to be given heed. Otherwise we can see that
nature is only responding to us the way we are treating it. [20]

(e) Junking Junk Food


The picture shown is a very serious statement of contemporary times. School
children have queued outside a stall that is selling chip packets among a lot
of other non-nutritious food. The children obviously have left their homes
early in the morning. These children are famished as they have not eaten
anything. This draws our attention to a very serious problem in our society.
The children of today are not being given enough education about nutrition.
Parents too do not seem to have realized the importance of supplementing
children with the right kind of food. Scientific studies have shown that
eating within one hour of waking up boosts the energy and keeps the stamina
intact for a major part of the day. However, they leave their houses early in
the morning after having just a glass of milk. Children due to the advanced
curriculum are expected to absorb a lot of knowledge. Other than the regular
239
X - ICSE (English paper 1)  MT EDUCARE LTD.

academics, they have to involve themselves in a lot of project work too. With
growing competition, life has become highly demanding. But because of poor
eating habits, the children do not equip themselves with proper nutrition
thus affecting their grasping skills. Their mind gets fatigued and they are
not able to receive beyond a certain limit. The eating schedules of children
are in total contrast to the ones the previous generations had. The children
of the previous generation would eat a lot of food rich in nutrition. Wheat
items, leafy vegetables, fruits and fibre-rich food were a part of their eating
regularities. Supplementing themselves with probiotics like curds, soya and
other items used to keep their immune system intact. But the children of
today order food through online portals sitting within the comforts of their
homes. Eating junk food from fast food outlets is making them obese and
open to the risk of various health problems.
Parents, the children of yesteryears, are aware about the value of good and
right eating. They need to impart their knowledge to the children. Regular
counseling with a nutritionist must also help. The parents of today ought to
ensure proper eating habits for their children to facilitate their growth into
successful individuals. [20]

write this letter not to rebuke you but to suggest a few tips that will enhance
your performance.
First and foremost, are you just mugging up the answers without
understanding the concepts? If so please stop this habit. Every chapter in
every subject is driven by certain concepts. Once these concepts are clear
we can answer the question flawlessly whichever way it is posed. Make a
time-table which you can follow systematically. Practice writing the answers
where you get stuck because of not being able to remember the words.
Keywords are very important in every answer. In the event of any doubt or
difficulty, just send me a message on my mobile. Another earnest request I
would like to make is that during your free time please relax or even possibly
sleep. Do not waste your time watching messages, photos or videos on social
media. It will only eat into your time and make you feel tired.
Ritesh, I want you to work to your potential which is quite immense. Your
skill is like that uncut diamond which is waiting to be utilized. I am sure in

SECTION A — DRAMA
Answer 1.
(i) This scene is set in Belmont. The Prince of Morocco has come to try
his luck with the lottery of caskets. Of the three caskets of gold,
silver and lead whoever chooses the right casket with Portia's portrait
in it wins her hand in marriage. Thus the Prince of Morocco has
come with the hopes of selecting the right casket and marrying Portia.[3]

(ii) From the given extract, we come to know that the Prince of Morocco is
of dark complexion. He also says that the proximity of his country
Morocco to the equator has given him this complexion. When he says
that he and the northward born prince should make an incision in
their skins to prove whose blood is reddest, it shows the level of
confidence he has and the amount of bragging he indulges in. [3]

(iii) The Prince of Morocco says that he is ready to pluck the sucking cubs
from the she-bear while they are drinking milk. He is also ready to
challenge the lion when he roars for prey. As his aspect has feared
the valiant and even the best regarded virgins from his clime have
liked his complexion, he does not need to change his complexion. Yet
he is ready to change his complexion to win Portia. [3]

(iv) Morocco has to swear that if he chooses the wrong casket, he is not
supposed to speak to any lady by way of marriage. He should not reveal
to anyone as to which casket he chose. The third condition is that he
has to leave Belmont without further delay. [3]

(v) When Portia speaks about the 'the lottery of my destiny' she is talking
about the imposition of her father about the lottery of caskets. She
cannot choose a husband for herself and she has to marry the suitor
who chooses the casket with her portrait in it. Portia is unhappy about
this lottery. She feels it is unfair to be debarred from choosing a
husband for herself. She laments she cannot choose whom she likes
because that person has to select the right casket if she wants to
marry him. She cannot refuse whom she dislikes because if that person
chooses the right casket then she has to marry him if she has to
perform her father's wish as a loyal daughter. [4]

Answer 2
(i) Portia means to say that since Shylock craved for the law he will have
nothing but Antonio's pound of flesh lawfully. She says that he has to
take it at his own risk. He is not supposed to shed a drop of Christian
blood while cutting the forfeiture nor cut more or less than a pound of
flesh. [3]

(ii) Shylock responds with a lot of frustration. He says that let the devil
take away Antonio and he will not have anything to do with him
(Antonio). [3]

244

(iii) Portia says that if an alien by direct or by indirect means tries to seek
the life of a citizen, then the person against whom he contrived will
get half his goods. The other half will go to the privy of the state and
the mercy for the offender will be at the authority of the Duke only.
Shylock has exactly committed the crimes that have been mentioned
and therefore he has to bend and beg mercy and life from the Duke. [3]

(iv) Half of Shylock's wealth has to be given to Antonio as the former had
plotted to take the life of the latter. After the Duke asks Antonio as to
what he has to say, Antonio proposes to give all the share of his goods
upon Shylock's death to Lorenzo and Jessica. [3]

(v) Portia is in the disguise of a doctor of laws. A lot of positive facets of


Portia's character are revealed. She as a dutiful wife shows a perfect
understanding of the amity between her husband Bassanio and his
closest friend Antonio. The way she traps Shylock in his own words
displays her shrewd approach and immense intelligence. [4]

Answer 3
(i) This scene is set in the court of Venice. These words are addressed
to Bassanio by Antonio. Shylock is insistent on taking Antonio's pound
of flesh. Portia after unsuccessfully trying to convince Shylock declares
that the bond is forfeit and Antonio must lay bare his bosom for Shylock
to cut the forfeiture. Portia then asks Antonio if he has anything to
say. Antonio then replies with 'But little'. [3]

(ii) Antonio tells Bassanio not to feel sad and blame himself for being the
cause of Antonio's end. He feels that fortune has been kind to him as
normally fortune after making a man bankrupt does not give him
instant death. He has to suffer his torture of poverty right through old
age. Here Antonio feels that fortune has been kind as it is blessing
him with instant death and spares him the suffering of poverty. [3]

(iii) Antonio instructs Bassanio to talk about him to his(Bassanio's)


honourable wife Portia. Bassanio should also tell Portia how Antonio
loved him. He requests Bassanio to talk fair about him after death
and let her be the judge whether Bassanio had a true lover in Antonio. [3]

(iv) Bassanio replies that he has a wife whom he loves more than his own
life and the world. He says that he is ready to sacrifice himself, his
wife and the whole world to save Antonio from the cruel Shylock as
Antonio's life carries more value than anything else in the world for
him. [3]

(v) Antonio concludes his speech on an intended pun and dry humour.
He asks Bassanio only to repent that he has lost a friend and
he(Antonio) will not repent his death because if Shylock does cut
deep enough he will be instantly paying with his heart. Here he has
used a pun by conveying heart in two different meanings. One is the
physical part of his body as Shylock is going to cut close to his heart
and the other is with all his feelings. This shows that Antonio apart
from his melancholic nature also indulges in dry humour. He has
accepted death and life as the two sides of the same coin. [4]

The Mousetrap: Agatha Christie


Answer 4
(i) The conversation between Mollie and Giles takes place at the great
Hall at Monkswell Manor, late in the afternoon.
The weather outside is freezing cold. Due to the extreme cold the
roads are covered with snow. The heavy snowing is expected to
continue. It was almost dark though it was only late afternoon. [3]

(ii) Mollie and Giles were venturing into a business of their own for the
first time. They wanted to run a guest house and had taken great
pains to make is as comfortable as possible to create a good impression
on their guests.
It was important for them to create a favourable impression so that
their business ran successfully. [3]

(iii) Mrs. Barlow was the maid who helped Mollie with the running of the
guest horse. She was a good local woman from the nearby village,
who came daily to help Mollie.
Mrs. Barlow left early that day as she was afraid of the weather and
the heavy snow which could cause inconvenience in transport. [3]

(iv) Mrs. Boyle was actually the magistrate responsible for sending the
three children to the bad foster home. She had taken this call as
she assumed that the foster parents were decent enough to take
care of the three children. [3]

(v) Mrs. Boyle was the magistrate who had instructed the three children
to stay in the foster house. But the foster home was too harsh. The
children were treated very badly. In lost, the younger brother was
ill-treated to such an extent that he fact has life. This shocking
incident made the elder brother avenge for the death of Mrs Boyle as
he holds her responsible for his brother’s death. Hence Georgie
killed Mrs. Boyle in the disguise of Sergeant Trolter. [4]

Answer 5
(i) Mrs. Boyle, one of the guests of Monkswell Manor, is of a complaining
sort. She first complains that the taxi would not come up the drive
but stopped at the gate as the snow was not cleared. She then
complains that there was no one from the guest house waiting to
receive her at the station and she had great difficulty in hiring a
taxi. She then complains that Mrs. Ralston is too young and
inexperienced to run the guest house. [3]

(ii) Mrs. Boyle does not appreciate the idea given by Giles to leave the
place if it was not appropriate enough for her. She insists on staying
in Monkswell Manor to find out more about the place. [3]

(iii) Mrs. Boyle is an imposing woman who is always dissatisfied with


everything. She is habituated to finding faults. Even though Giles
suggests that she could stay elsewhere if she did not like the place.
she does not wish to comply with it. This shows us that she was
quite insensitive to her hosts' feelings while complaining. She did
246
 MT EDUCARE LTD. X - ICSE (English paper II)

not think twice to hurt them. She was also thick-skinned and did
not wish to leave the guest house even though she was given an
option. [3]

(iv) Mrs. Boyle was actually the magistrate responsible for sending the
three children to the bad foster home. She had taken this call as
she assumed that the foster parents were decent enough to take
care of the three children. [3]

(v) Mrs. Boyle was the magistrate who had instructed the three children
to stay in the foster house. But the foster home, was too harsh. The
children were treated very badly. In fact, the younger brother was
ill treated to such an extent that he lost his life. This shocking
incident made the elder brothers avenge for the death of Mrs Boyle
as he holds her responsible for his brother's death. Hence Georgie
kills Mrs. Boyle in the disguise of sergeant Trotter. [4]

Answer 6
(i) Mollie gets agitated and starts screaming. Trotter asks her not to
scream or he will shoot her. Then Trotter tells Mollie how he decided
to take revenge for Jimmy's death when he grew up. He has already
killed two persons responsible for his brother's death and he is now
going to kill her because she too is equally responsible. [3]

(ii) Trotter tells Mollie that the children's father was an Army sergeant
serving abroad. If he had been alive, he would have been discharged
from the army by now. [3]

(iii) Mollie's surmise is that after being a prisoner with the Japanese and
having suffered there terribly, the children's father must have come
and learnt about the fate of his children. He would have lost temper
and decided to take revenge. [3]

(iv) Major Metcalf is the major suspect as he becomes frightfully upset


on learning that the police was coming. [3]

(v) Mollie starts playing the tune of the 'Three Blind Mice'. It is here
that the mystery is solved. When the tune is heard being played on
the piano, Trotter calls Mrs Ralston (Mollie). When Mollie enters the
room, Trotter accuses her of hiding the fact that she had first-hand
knowledge of the Longridge Farm affair. He accuses Mollie of being
callous towards the children. He takes a revolver out of his pocket
and discloses that he is not a policeman. He is Georgie, the brother
of Jimmy who died at the farm. Then he tells her how he made a
fake call to her and how he cut the telephone wires before he came
to the front door. Mollie listens to him and gets agitated. Trotter
asks her not to scream or he would shoot her. Then Trotter tells
Mollie how he decided to take revenge for Jimmy's death when he
grew up. He has already killed two persons responsible for his brother's
death and he is now going to kill her because she too is equally
responsible. He drops the revolver down and leans over her with his
left hand on her mouth and his right hand on her neck. [4]

SECTION B - POETRY
Answer 7
(i) The old man is Old Kaspar. His grandson Peterkin has found something
round and circular in shape while playing near the stream and he comes
to ask his grandfather what that large, round and smooth object is. Old
Kaspar sighs as he is a little sad and disappointed because what his
grandson has found is a skull. Old Kaspar further tells Peterkin with a
sigh that the round and smooth object is the skull of a man who had
fought in the Battle of Blenheim. [3]

(ii) Old Kaspar's grandson Peterkin had found something round and circular
in shape while he was playing near the stream. He came to ask his
grandfather what that large, round and smooth object was. Old Kaspar
told Peterkin that the round and smooth object was the skull of a man
who had fought in the Blenheim war. This aroused the curiosity of both
Peterkin and his sister Wilhelmine and this prompted the old man to
give an account of the battle of Blenheim. [3]

(iii) Old Kaspar's family suffered great losses in the Battle of Blenheim. Kaspar
narrates how his father used to live near a stream too, but when the
warstarted his house was burnt down to the ground. Kaspar's father had
no option but to flee the land he stayed in with his wife and child. The
disastrous war had such a lasting impact that his father could not find
shelter thereafter. [3]

(iv) The battle of Blenheim was fought between England and Austria on one
side and France on the other. The English army won the battle. Kaspar
feels that many brave men had laid down their lives and the common
people had to face a lot of hardships. He gives these sacrifices as the
reasons for the so-called great victory. [3]

(v) The refrain in this poem is the oft-repeated line by Old Kaspar 'It was a
great victory'. This refrain puzzles the reader to a very great extent.
Kaspar talks about his own father fleeing his home with his family and
about pregnant ladies and children losing their lives. Yet he tells that it
was a great victory. The poet Robert Southey takes a satirical route and
explains the horrors of the 'great battle.' Through the characters of the
children Peterkin and Wilhelmine the poet in a non-didactic but subtle
and strong manner conveys the futility of war. The poet thus shows that
war brings only pointless destruction and senseless massacres of the
innocent like old men, pregnant ladies and children. The poet feels wars
at any cost must be strictly avoided. [4]

Answer 8
(i) The poet seems to have realised the evil impact of excessive television
viewing. He says that the most important thing that he has learned in
his life is that children should be prohibited to watch the television. The
poet further suggests that it would be best to not install a television set
at all. [3]

(ii) Whenever the poet has visited a house , he has seen the children watching
television. They are so engrossed in this futile activity that they sit lazily
248
 MT EDUCARE LTD. X - ICSE (English paper II)

at one place for long hours. They keep staring at the screen watching
useless programmes. They are completely engulfed by the idiotic box.
The poet says that one day when he went to someone's place, the children
were engrossed in watching Television over a prolonged period of time.
They were gaping so long that their eyes almost popped out of their
sockets giving him the feeling that a dozen eyeballs were on the floor. [3]

(iii) The poet has vividly pointed out how the children are adversely affected
due to continuously being glued to the idiot box. It kills their imaginative
and creative skills. It dulls their senses and they are unable to experience
world's fantasies. The children only see television. So their ability to
think is completely destroyed. [3]

(iv) The poet recommends and even begs the parents to throw away their TV
sets. He further advises them to replace it with a lovely bookshelf with
lots of books. Initially they may reject the idea of reading. But once they
start reading the books, it would fill their hearts with joy. They will
wonder what they had found in that repulsive and nauseating television. [3]

(v) The poet advises and even begs the parents to throw away their TV set.
He further advises them to replace it with a lovely bookshelf with lots of
books. He says that initially the children will reject the change. They
will give dirty looks, screams and yell, bite and kick and hit their parents
with sticks.The poet then assures them that this is a temporary phase
which will subside within a fortnight and once they start reading the
books it would fill their hearts with joy. The poem is light -hearted with a
strong message for parents. The poet has strongly conveyed that excessive
watching of TV is harmful for children. It is an eye-opener to the parents
whose children are continuously glued to the idiot box- the television.
The poet vividly brings out the disadvantages of watching TV. He reminds
them that before the TV was invented, children used to read a lot. The
poet reassures the parents that gradually their children will enjoy reading
and thus love their parents for introducing them to the fantastic new
world of interesting books. [4]

Answer 9
(i) The weather was extremely cold when they found themselves together.
Each of them had a stick of wood held in their hand to feed the dying
fire. However none of them gave their stick to keep the fire burning due
to their personal prejudices against one another. [3]

(ii) The third man is a poor man wearing tattered clothes. He sees a rich
man sitting among the group of six people. Being filled with envy and
jealousy, he decides to let the rich man die out of cold. He thinks that
the rich just survive on the poor man's labour and therefore has a feeling
of hatred towards the rich. Having this feeling of jealousy and spite, he
holds his stick back and leaves the rich to experience the severe cold. [3]

(iii) The black man saw in his piece of wood the greatest opportunity to spite
the white. He had faced years of discrimination, prejudice, hatred and
atrocity from the whites. He saw this as the biggest chance to take
revenge. Moreover even in such a hopeless situation a white lady who
249
X - ICSE (English paper II)  MT EDUCARE LTD.

was one among the six, had not sacrificed her log of wood as she had
seen the black. This behavior of the white lady justifies the feelings that
the black showed. [3]

(iv) The sixth man in the group was the opportunist. He had a very selfish
nature. He could only see his own profit in every little thing he would do.
The only reason that stopped him from giving away his wood was because
he did not see any of the other people giving their wood. He feels that if
the others had done so, he too would have put in his log of wood. since
the others did not contribute in keeping the fire burning, This shows a
very selfish, immature and opportunistic attitude of stashing things for
his own self. [3]

(v) Yes, the title 'The Cold Within' is quite apt The cold within means the
lack of warmth within that is caused due to selfishness, arrogance and
greed. The vices of hatred, revenge, spite, racial prejudices did not make
them give up their sticks. Since they did not part with the sticks that
were necessary for their survival, the fire died out. As they did not have
anything to protect them from the cold, they died out of the bitter cold
outside. Although the cold outside got the better of the six people and
killed them, it was the feeling of hatred, anger, jealousy, revenge, spite,
arrogance and selfishness within that actually killed the six humans.In
fact, sadly, none of them had any love or compassion for the other persons
in their group. [4]

SECTION C - PROSE
Answer 10
(i) The 'she' mentioned here is Margot. Margot is a former inhabitant of
Earth. She has grown into a depressed character because of the ab-
sence of the sun on planet Venus. She does not mix with the children
in their normal fun-loving activities because of this depression. She is a
meek and timid girl. She is not able to fight the other children when
they taunt her or even forcibly lock her in the closet. She looks like an
old photograph from a dusted album that has whitened or faded. [3]

(ii) The story is set in the planet of Venus. The first difference one notices
between Venus and earth is the climate. Venus unlike earth rarely
gets the rays of the sun. Instead it gets rainfall continuously for years
together. The second difference can be seen in the disposition of the
people. Due to the absence of the sun the people from Venus as de-
picted by the children in the chapter seem to be totally devoid of any
empathy or compassion in strong contrast to the people from earth. [3]

(iii) Margot had been an inhabitant of the Earth before migrating to Venus.
Unlike the other children she could recall the sun's appearance clearly.
She compares the sun to a flower. She also felt that it bloomed just for
an hour. This tells us that she remembers the sun's appearance and
she is clearly missing it in Venus. [3]

(iv) Margot was a loner and unable to connect with the other children
emotionally. She also refrained from singing and playing with them.
Due to this behavior her parents were ready to return to earth in spite
250
 MT EDUCARE LTD. X - ICSE (English paper II)

of the heavy travelling expenses. The children were possibly envious of


this fact and thus showed their indifference towards her when William
gave a shove. [3]

(v) Margot had been an inhabitant of the Earth before migrating to Venus.
Unlike the other children she could recall the sun's appearance clearly
comparing it to a bloomed flower. Her painful yearning for the sun and
her rich memory about it had made her dull, lonely and sad. Being a
loner, she was unable to connect with the other children emotionally.
She also refrained from singing songs of happiness and playing games
with them. Even a month before, she had refused to bathe aggressively
in a state of hysteria and panic. The only time she would join them in
singing was when they sang songs about the sun. Due to this
unconventional behavior, the other children used to treat her badly.
The children were possibly envious that she was returning to earth.
The absence of sun on their planet had made them totally devoid of
human emotions like compassion, understanding and empathy. [4]

Answer 11
(i) Muni had reared his goats hoping that he could sell them at a good price
someday, and he would utilize the money to open a small shop in that
very area. Sitting here, watching towards the hills he had often dreamt
how he would put up a thatched roof here, spread a gunny sack out on
the ground and display on it fried nuts, coloured sweets, and green coco-
nut for the thirsty and famished wayfarers on the highway, which was
sometimes very busy. [3]

(ii) The foreigner was dressed in Khaki. The Khaki dress made Muni think
that the foreigner was either a soldier or a policeman. When his eyes fell
on Muni, he thought that the former had come to investigate into the
murder that was committed in the adjoining village Kuppam. Muni planned
to run away but decided against it as he thought that the foreigner may
shoot him down. He felt that dogs chase only those who run. [3]

(iii) In the adjoining village Kuppam a badly mutilated body was found. There
was a lot of gossip and speculation about the murder. Muni felt that the
foreigner had come to investigate into the murder. [3]

(iv) The visitor was actually interested in knowing the details about the horse.
He was so fascinated that he was even ready to buy it for a good price. He
offered Muni a cigarette soon after they met.Muni was surprised at this
offer as no one had offered him a cigarette for years together. Only once
did the shop man offer a cigarette as a loan,. [3]

(v) The part towards the end of the story where the foreigner offers one
hundred rupees to Muni for the horse statue and Muni thinks that he is
being paid for the goats is the most amusing. The reason I find it amusing
is because both the characters are speaking in a language that is totally
alien to each other. Yet the misunderstanding that takes place between
the two turns out to be one of mutual benefit and absolute happiness.
Muni gets the money to realize his ambition and the foreigner gets to buy
the horse statue. The statement made by the foreigner 'We can do
anything if we have a basis of understanding' is the most ironical and
hilarious. [4]

Answer 12
(i) The narrator has the job of looking beyond the Ebro river and exploring
the bridgehead as to how far the enemy has advanced. He has to ensure
that all the people board the trucks to Barcelona. But he notices an old
man sitting by the bridge and not moving towards the trucks. The old
man has a sad tale to tell the narrator. He is forced to leave his town
San Carlos because of an expected artillery attack. The old man also
informs the narrator about the animals he is taking care of---- a cat, two
goats and four pairs of pigeons. He is most worried about the safety of the
goats. Looking at the old man's physical plight and mental disturbance,
the narrator takes time to give him a patient hearing and strong
assurance. . He is feeling sorry and empathetic towards the old man.
Therefore the narrator takes a long time to converse with him. [3]

(ii) In the first paragraph, Hemingway declares that the old man "was too
tired to go any further." The man does get up and try to move later. The
discussion with the narrator tends to suggest the old man could really go
no further and would simply perish on the spot. He is seventy-six years
old and seems dazed and confused, going on about how he had been
taking care of the animals when he was told to leave because of incom-
ing artillery. He laments leaving them to die, although he suggests the
cat may be able to take care of himself. The narrator tries to reassure
him, and he finally gets him to stand up, but the old man sways from
side to side and then sits down backwards in the dust." Moreover, the old
man continues talking to no one in particular, leading the reader to
believe he has lost touch with reality. Not able to stay, the narrator
leaves the old man, commenting, "the fact that cats know how to look
after themselves was all the good luck that old man would ever have."
Some of these statements from the story make one believe that old man
is about to give up on life. Though the end does not reveal as to what
happens to him, one presumes that he would eventually die. [3]
(iii) Ernest Hemingway through the story 'Old Man at the Bridge' has clearly
brought out the ill-effects of a war through an absolutely regular and
ordinary character-----The Old man. It talks about depression, despair
and the inevitability of death in a state of war. The story brings out the
sad plight of civilians during a war. Evacuating their homes and leaving
behind their prized possessions and pets is not an easy task for the
people concerned as they are emotionally attached to their home town.
The main protagonist, the old man, is a fatalist and has surrendered
himself to the ill-effects of war. On being asked about his political lean-
ings, the old man says that he has none. The soldier asks the old man to
catch a ride on the truck so that he can safely proceed to Barcelona. The
old man however, because of his age, is unable to proceed. The soldier
fears that the old man will meet his end as the Fascists will be crossing
the bridge over the Ebro. The day being overcast makes the narrator feel
that the old man might survive for the time being. However death seems
imminent for the old man sooner or later.
The narrator is worried about the old man's safety who in turn is con-
cerned about his pigeons and goats. He is confident that the cat could
take care of itself. Thus both are in a state of depression brought out by a
situation for which they are just not responsible. The narrator feels sad
for the old man's predicament and gives a very telling statement, "There
was nothing to do about him."

The portrayal is quite realistic and though written about almost 80 years
ago, it will possibly hold true as long as mankind exists. Even today when
we see the pictures of the Syrian conflict situations in the newspapers,
we always witness ordinary civilians fleeing places with their children
in arms. We always wonder what these children have done that they are
paying such a heavy price. It is indeed a big irony that man in spite of
being the most intelligent of species does not have the common sense to
lead a peaceful coexistence. [4]

Answer 1.
(i) Antonio's mood was quite melancholic at the start of the scene. However,
he did not know the cause of his sadness. Neither did he know where it
has originated or how he came across it. Salarino says that Antonio's
mind was tossing on the ocean where his ships were moving like important
citizens like signiors and burghers. Salarino after giving a lot of metaphorical
references said Antonio was sad to think upon his merchandise. When
Antonio denied this Salarino asked whether he was in love. This reason
too was negated by Antonio. These were two of the reasons that Antonio's
friends gave for his apparent sadness. [3]

(ii) Antonio asks Bassanio to spell out what he wants. If Bassanio's requirement
stands within the eye of honour, then his purse, person and his extremest
means all lie unlocked to his occasions or needs. [3]

(iii) Bassanio talked about a richly left lady whose name was Portia. She was
beautiful and more beautiful than the word 'beautiful'. She was no way
inferior to Brutus' Portia in beauties and virtues. Suitors from across the
wide world too knowing her worth were coming to seek her hand in
marriage. He compared Portia's golden hair to the Golden Fleece with the
suitors as the Jasons. Sometimes from her eyes too, Bassanio got fair
speechless messages of love. [3]

(iv) Antonio was unable to lend his friend with money as all his finances were
put in ships. But he asked Bassanio to take loan from anyone in Venice
that can be extended to the maximum. Antonio would then play as a
guarantor. This was the assurance of help given by Antonio to Bassanio. [3]

(v) This extract showed the deep bonding that Bassanio had with Antonio.
Bassanio thought of sharing his plans and strategies only with Antonio.
This was because of the love and money showered by Antonio. Antonio too
in spite of not having finances willingly agreed to help out Bassanio by
playing the guarantor. Their friendship was later tested in the play when
they went to borrow three thousand ducats from Shylock. Antonio as the
guarantor agreed to sign the barbaric bond churned out by Shylock without
a second thought. He was thus risking his life for Bassanio. The fact that
Bassanio on the very day of his wedding left from Belmont to Venice to
save Antonio showed the mutual concern and love they had for each
other. [4]

Answer 2
(i) Bassanio found the gentle scroll in the lead casket. This casket had
Portia's portrait within. Thus Bassanio had won Portia's hand in mar
riage. [3]

(ii) Bassanio was feeling giddy in spirit and gazing in a doubt as the feeling
of this great an achievement was yet to sink in. Before he chose the
casket, his financial position was in disarray and he did not have any
power. But after choosing the casket, the entire wealth of Portia and
the powers that she had were immediately transferred to Bassanio.
Thus the sudden upsurge in his financial position and social status
was proving a bit too difficult to handle. Therefore, he was feeling giddy
in spirit and gazing in a doubt. [3]

(iii) The ring given by Portia symbolized the existence of love between her
and Bassanio. She asked Bassanio not to part from, lose or give it away.
In the event of the ring being lost, it predicted the ruin of their love. [3]

(iv) Bassanio told that he is totally bereft of all words. He assured Portia
that he would not part, give or sell the ring. If at all the ring parts from
Bassanio's finger, she should be bold enough to say that Bassanio is
dead. [3]

(v) After hearing Antonio's letter, Portia asked Bassanio to dispatch all
business and rush to Belmont to save Antonio. This behavior brings to
the fore Portia's quick, selfless and astute thinking. The very fact that
she asked Bassanio to rush to Belmont on the day of their marriage
showed that she had owned up her husband's problems. The immediate
solution she found to Antonio's problem showed her great presence of
mind and that she was a lady of action who made things happen rather
than waiting for things to happen. [4]

Answer 3
(i) This scene is set in a court of Venice. Portia has come there to save her
husband Bassanio's bosom friend Antonio from the clutches of Shylock.
Bassanio had borrowed a loan of three thousand ducats from Shylock
with Antonio as the guarantor. Antonio was not able to return the money
within the stipulated time of three months thus risking the forfeit of a
pound of flesh as per a bond signed with Shylock. Portia after consulting
her cousin Dr.Bellario has come to Venice to handle this peculiar case
and save Antonio. [3]

(ii) Bellario was sick in the instant that the messenger came with the
Duke's letter. But in loving visitation a young doctor from Rome, Balthazar
had come to meet Bellario. After turning over a lot of books on law,
Bellario felt Balthazar with his intelligence and understanding of the
law was the best person to handle this rarest of rare cases and be in his
stead. [3]
255
X - ICSE (English paper II)  MT EDUCARE LTD.

(iii) Bellario and Balthazar had turned over a lot of books on law to handle
the peculiar legal dispute between Shylock and Antonio. Bellario fur-
nished Balthazar with his opinion. Balthazar had developed his own
expertise in this case. In this manner. Bellario readied Balthazar in
handling the case. [3]

(iv) Due to the inability of Antonio returning the three thousand ducats,
Shylock was baying for Antonio's pound of flesh as per the bond of forfei-
ture. The Duke along with the noblemen and magnificoes had urged
Shylock not to insist on the forfeiture of the bond. The Duke was keen
to save Antonio, a respected merchant of Venice who was facing a lot of
financial reversals. But Shylock due to his vindictive nature insisted on
having the pound of flesh. In the event of his wish being denied, he said
that the integrity and law of Venice will be questioned and the freedom
and charter of Venice too would be in danger. Thus, the Duke was faced
with the dilemma of either saving Antonio or allowing the law to take its
course which meant certain death for him. The Duke was finding it
difficult to resolve the difference or dispute between Shylock and Anto
nio. [3]

(v) Portia initially tries to convince Shylock to show mercy on Antonio by


giving a brief oration on its quality. She even says that thrice the
value of the bond is being offered to him. But Shylock is adamant on
having the pound of flesh. Portia then pretends to give in to Shylock's
obdurate behaviour. But she turns the tables by telling Shylock to go
as per the wordings which means only a pound of flesh. If a single
drop of Christian blood is spilled, or the scales turn in the estimation
of a hair, Shylock will have to die and his wealth will be confiscated
unto the state of Venice. In this manner, she corners Shylock and
stops him of his will. This reveals Portia's quick wit and intelligence.
She changes from a gentle soul to a ruthless professional by trapping
Shylock in his own words and shows a perfect understanding about
the intricacies of the law. From this we come to understand that she
is a quick learner. She also comes across as a loyal wife of Bassanio
by saving his friend Antonio. [4]

The Mousetrap: Agatha Christie


Answer 4
(i) Giles did not want the bus ticket to be noticed by anyone. So he failed
to hear what Trotter had said earlier. He was dazed to know the fact
that the murderer would arrive at the guest house or possibly has
arrived already, to kill the second accused. [3]

(ii) Trotter was following the phone wire to see if it was cut. He was at-
tempting to kill Mrs. Boyle. He was actually Georgie, one of the three
children involved in Longridge farm case, in the disguise of Trotter. [3]

256
 MT EDUCARE LTD. X - ICSE (English paper II)

(iii) Mrs. Boyle closed the window as the weather was quite chilly and a
cool wind was blowing in. The radio said that to understand the 'me-
chanics of fear', one has to study its exact effect produced on the hu-
man mind. It then supposes a situation about a person being alone in a
room late afternoon when a door opens softly behind. At this point in
reality, the door opens with the tune of 'Three Blind Mice' being played. [3]

(iv) The murderer increased the volume of the radio to mask the sounds of
killing. Mrs. Mollie Ralston entered the room immediately after the
murder. She turned on the lights and saw Mrs. Boyle dead on the
floor. [3]

(v) The victim was Mrs. Boyle. She was murdered as she was connected to
the Longridge Farm case. She was the magistrate who was in charge of
sending the three children to the farmer's house. Trotter was in real-
ity, Georgie, one of the three children who was seeking revenge from
the accused. The murderer whistled the signature tune of 'Three blind
mice'. The tune is significant as it is being played by the murderer
whenever he is killing someone. Also there were three people accused
of the children's sufferings. Mrs. Boyle turned out to be the second
mouse. [4]

Answer 5
(i) Mrs Boyle makes many remarks as they reach the Monkswell Manor.
The three complaints she makes are: firstly, the drive was full of snow,
which according to her should have been cleared secondly, Mollie was
very young, hence inexperienced to run an inn like that. Thirdly, the
Manor was very old which made Monkswell Manor her hope that it
had it got a heater. [3]

(ii) When Mrs Boyle has many complaints and wishes that she had not
gone to the Monkswell Manor, Giles tells her that she is welcome to
leave. In response to this she says that she would not leave before she
has tried what the place was like and that Giles need not think of
turning her out. [3]

(iii) Mrs. Boyle had many complaints when she entered Monkswell Manor.
She refused to leave when told by Giles. This shows that she was a
woman with a bad temper, stern and unpleasant in her demeanour.
She is a big snob, a dominating and irritating type of woman. [3]

(iv) Mrs Boyle was really (actually) one of the magistrates on the Bench at
the time of the Longridge Farm case. She was responsible for sending
the three children to Longridge Farm. [3]

(v) In the end Mrs Boyle is strangled to death by Georgia disguised as


Sergeant Trotter. Mrs Boyle was killed by Georgie because she was the
one of the magistrates on the beach responsible for sending the three
children to Longridge Farm due to her ill - judgment of the foster parents. [4]

Answer 6.
(i) When Trotter says that the telephone wire that links him with the
police headquarters has been cut, Mollies response is that he doesn't
even know that, she says the telephone connective might have been
down due to the snow. In response to this, Giles says that the line was
deliberately cut, just outside the front door and that he found the blade. [3]

(ii) Trotter says that the children's father was an Army sergeant staying
abroad and that if he was alive he might have been discharged from the
Army. [3]

(iii) Mollie’s surmise is that the children's father might have come home
after being a prisoner with the Japanese and having suffered terribly
he might have found his wife dead and children facing terrible experi-
ence, with one of them dead. He might have gone off his head
wanting revenge. [3]

(iv) Mollie surmise is that the murderer might be the children's father. The
murderer might be middle-aged and old. Major Metacalf fits the de
scription of the children father. Hence, he is a possible suspect. [3]

(v) In the end the mystery is solved when Trotter reveals that he was one
of the three children abused at the farm. He was about to kill Mollie
who was held responsible for not responding to the letter that asked for
help but was stopped by Miss Casewell who later reveals that she was
Kathy, his sister Georgie. [4]

SECTION B - POETRY
Answer one or More questions from this Section.
A Collecfion of Poems
Answer 7.
(i) Peterkin and Wilhelmine are the grandchildren of Old Kaspar. Old Kaspar
had finished his work for the day and basking in the evening
sun near his cottage door. [3]

(ii) Peterkin found a skull near a rivulet flowing close to the cottage. The
skull was large, smooth and round in shape. [3]

(iii) 'Each other' refers to the English with the support of Austria on one side
and the French on the other. The reason as to what they fought each
other for is ironically not known to Old Kaspar. Yet he terms it as a
great victory for the English. The poet has in a subtle yet powerful
manner brought out the fact that the common man is not directly in-
volved in a war in his country. Yet he is the person who has to bear the
maximum brunt of it. [3]

(iv) These words are addressed to Old Kaspar. His house was burnt down
and his father had to flee the place with his family they inhabited. They
were left with no place to take shelter in. [3]

258
 MT EDUCARE LTD. X - ICSE (English paper II)

(v) The consequences associated with great and famous victories are quite
depressing and devastating. Even the victorious side has to bear a lot of
casualties which includes soldiers and innocent civilians. Infants and
childing mothers too become targets to this mindless and futile phe
nomenon known as war. [3]

Answer 8.
(i) The speaker is the patriot who is narrating in the first person. He is
being taken to the gallows at the Shambles' Gate. He is being taken
there for execution as he has committed an unpardonable act as per
the people's judgment. The unpardonable act is however not mentioned. [3]

(ii) A year ago the patriot was given a grand welcome. Myrtles mixed with
roses were strewn down in his path. People had assembled on rooftops
to catch a glimpse of their hero. The houses seemed to heave and sway
under the impact of the people who had gathered on the rooftops. The
church spires too seemed to be on fire symbolizing the glory. The old
walls of the city seemed to be rocking with the crowd and cries. [3]

(iii) The patriot thinks people had gathered at the scaffold's foot of the
Shambles' gate as they were eager to see him getting executed. He
thinks so because the houses and rooftops seem to be totally devoid of
people except for the palsied few. Majority of the people are at the
Shambles' gate to witness his execution. Ironically the same people
had given him a grand welcome the previous year with myrtles and
roses mixed in the path. But now there has been a complete turnabout
with people baying for his blood. [3]

(iv) The physical condition of the speaker is quite pathetic. He is now being
taken in the rain. His wrists have been tied so tightly that the ropes
are cutting through his skin. People are flinging stones at him and
though he cannot touch his forehead with his hands, he can feel that it
is bleeding. [3]

(v) The central message of the poem is that the public or people in general
are always fickle-minded. They will excessively praise a person to such
an extent that they will be ready to do the impossible for him. But the
very same people will want to execute him later if they find something
unacceptable. The poem ends on a note of hope. The speaker says that
in the afterlife, God may ask him after being paid by the people, how he
is going to pay God. He would now say that it is God who will pay him.
Being in His kingdom, he need not fear anything as it is He who will
judge and not the fickle-minded people. [4]

Answer 9.
(i) The young men had come from all over the world. The Para-Olympics
event had brought all of them together. They had prepared themselves
after working quite hard and were keen to take gold, silver or a bronze
medal home. [3]
259
X - ICSE (English paper II)  MT EDUCARE LTD.

(ii) The last event of the day was the hundred meter race. Nine athletes
were taking part in the race. All of them had poised themselves to take
a start to run. They were waiting for the exploding of the pistol which
signaled the start of the race and the final test of all the efforts that
each one of them had put in the past few years. [3]

(iii) As soon as the athletes set off at the firing of the pistol, the youngest
stumbled and staggered to the ground. All his hard work had become
futile. His hopes of winning a medal were dashed to the dirt. He let out
a cry of anguish in frustration. [3]

(iv) The strange turn that took place after the youngest athlete fell to the
ground was that all the other eight participants turned around, went
back to him and lifted him to his feet. After linking their arms together
all the nine reduced their sprint to a walk and crossed the finishing
line together. In the rarest of rare gestures, all the nine participants
were given the gold medals. [3]

(v) The poet has beautifully used a pun with the words 'Special Olympics'.
The tournament was named so as it was being held for the differently-
abled. But what happened at the hundred-meter race was something
unique and unprecedented. The eight athletes lifted the youngest ath-
lete after he had stumbled in the tracks. They then walked together to
the finishing line. All the nine athletes were awarded the gold medals.
The poet thus mentions that this incident only proved that the name
'Special Olympics' could not have been more perfect. The poem cel-
ebrates the human quality of compassion and empathy. All the eight
athletes who saw the young lad fall to the ground seemed to empathize
with him as only they could realize the pain one needs to endure after
years of practice and hard work get shattered within seconds. All of
them put their competitive spirit aside and brought in the all-essential
quality of peaceful co-existence, an endangered trait in a fast-develop
ing world. [4]

SECTION C - PROSE
Answer one or more questions from only ONE of the folloming books that you
Answer 10.
(i) Mr. Oliver was a teacher in a school on the outskirts of Simla. He was
an Anglo-Indian and had been teaching in the school for several years.
He was a bachelor and believed that he did not have a nervous bent of
mind.. He encountered a school boy while he was returning to his
hostel from the Simla bazar. He had taken a shortcut through the pine
forest which most of the local people avoided as they found the swaying
of the pine trees a bit eerie and gave them a feeling that the
forest was haunted by spirits. [3]

(ii) Mr. Oliver was a teacher in a school on the outskirts of Simla. The
school in which Mr. Oliver worked had been run on the lines of an
English Public school. Therefore it was proclaimed as the Eton of the
East. Most of the boys who studied there were from wealthy Indian
families. They wore blazers, caps and ties. [3]
260
 MT EDUCARE LTD. X - ICSE (English paper II)

(iii) Mr. Oliver approached the boy as he was sitting alone on a rock in the
pine forest. He observed that the boy had hung his head down and was
holding his face in his hands. His body shook in a jerky manner giving
an impression that he was crying. His body was shaking convulsively
with his head hung low but he was not making any sound. Mistaking
him for a boy from his school, Mr. Oliver asked him what he was doing
there at that hour as boys were not supposed to be out after dark as per
the rules of the school. [3]

(iv) A lantern is a lamp with a transparent case protecting the flame or


electric bulb, and typically having a handle by which it can be carried
or hung: The watchman was holding the lantern. Mr. Oliver had just
seen a boy devoid of eyes, nose, ears and mouth. The face was as
smooth as the head with just a school cap covering the head. Looking at
such an unusual and scary face, he scrambled towards the school build-
ing. Finding a familiar person, the watchman, in the path with a lan
tern after such a horrible experience gave him relief. [3]

(v) Mr. Oliver after looking at the featureless face of the boy scrambled
towards the school buildings. The watchman who stood in the path with
a lantern in hand asked Mr. Oliver what the matter was. He asked Mr.
Oliver if there had been an accident which made Oliver run in fear.
Oliver told the watchman that he had seen a boy with no face. The
watchman then took the lantern towards his face to confirm whether it
was similar to his face. The watchman's face too had no eyes, nose,
mouth and ears, no features at all - not even an eyebrow!. And that's
when the wind blew the lamp out.
Mr. Oliver coming across a featureless face of a boy and then stumbling
on to a watchman with a similar visage before his lantern blows out
seems to be the perfect reason to consider the story as one of horror.
Even the abrupt end leaves the reader in a shroud of mystery and
optional imagination. [4]

Answer 11.
(i) The Berlin Olympic Games of 1936 is being referred to in the above
extract.
According to the narrator Jesse Owens, nationalistic feelings were run-
ning high during the games because Adolf Hitler, the Fuhrer of Ger-
many, had put forward a rather immature theory that Germans were of
a naturally superior "master race". Since Hitler put forward the as-
sumption, the other races wanted to rubbish the theory while the Ger
mans themselves wanted to prove the Fuhrer right. [3]

(ii) Owens had been confident of winning the running broad jump event
because just a year before the event, Owens had set a world record of
jumping 26 feet, 8 ¼ inches as a sophomore.
Owing to the startling figures, and years of hard work, Owens was
expected to win the Olympic gold. [3]

261
X - ICSE (English paper II)  MT EDUCARE LTD.

(iii) Adolf Hitler was of the belief that the German, Aryan race and some
other European races were superior to the other races. This was a
doctored line of thinking in Nazi Germany that sought to promote ag-
gressive nationalism and belittle other races, especially the black
skinned. Jesse Owens wanted to prove Hitler wrong. There was anger
seething within him towards Hitler which was turning out to be counter-
productive. He was performing like a perfect example of every coach's
belief that an angry athlete is the one who would make mistakes. Owens
had fouled in the first of his three qualifying jumps, Owens jumped
from several inches beyond the take-off board. On the second jump,
Owens fouled even worse. A third foul, and Owens could be heading
back home. [3]

(iv) Owens' rival who approached him at this point was none other than Luz
Long, a tall German athlete. Long asked Owens to attempt the jump a
few inches before the board so that he would qualify for the finals. He
also reasoned out that it was more important that Owens qualify for
the finals than to come first in the trials. It was the finals that mat
tered the most where he had to perform the best. [3]

(v) On the day of the finals, Luz Long broke his past record. Owens had his
back against the wall, and he was pushed to his peak performance.
Owens set a new Olympic record of 26 feet 5-5/16 inches. That also
meant that Owens had beaten Long in the finals of the Olympic games,
a dream that he envisioned right from the time when he left from
America.
But Jesse considered his friendship with Luz Long as the greatest Olym-
pic prize. The advice by Long was invaluable in Owens qualifying, and
eventually winning the Olympic gold. One more fouled jump at the
qualifying stage would mean that Owens would have had to bow out of
the games without even qualifying for the finals.
Thus Luz Long's advice given to Owens right before his third qualifying
jump had its weight worth in gold resulting in the 24-carat friendship
between the two. [4]

Answer 12.
(i) The story is set on the planet Venus. The sun had not come out for the
last seven years. It had been raining during this period, thousands
upon thousands of days compounded and filled from one end to the
other with rain, with the drum and gush of water, with the sweet
crystal of showers and the concussion of storms so heavy they were
tidal waves come over the islands. A thousand forests had been crushed
under the rain and grown up a thousand times to be crushed again.
This seemed to be the eternal life on Venus, where men and women
with their families had come to set up civilization and live out their
lives. [3]

(ii) Scientists had predicted that the sun would make an appearance on
Venus after seven long years. The children from Venus, not remember-
ing the sun as far as their memory could serve, were feeling excited to
262
 MT EDUCARE LTD. X - ICSE (English paper II)

see this wonderful creation of God. Margot was set apart from these
children as she had shifted with her parents five years ago. Thus she
knew the appearance, shape and the warmth of the sun unlike the
other children. [3]

(iii) The sun came out in the colour of flaming bronze and looked quite
large. The sky changed to a blazing blue tile colour. The jungle also
burned with sunlight as the children rushed out into a totally unseen
atmosphere of springtime. The children took out their jackets and let
the sun burn their arms. They felt the sun on their cheeks like a warm
iron. They stopped running and viewed the great jungle that had never
stopped growing. It was a nest of octopi, clustering up great arms of
flesh like weed, wavering, flowering in this brief spring. It was the color
of stones, white cheeses, ink and the moon. The children lay on the
jungle mattress, hearing it sigh and squeak under them resilient and
alive. They ran among the trees, slipping, falling, pushing each other
and playing hide-and-seek and tag. But for a major part of the time,
they squinted at the sun until tears ran down their faces. They breathed
the fresh air and listened to the silence which suspended them in a
sea of no sound and no motion. They savoured everything around them.
They behaved like wild animals which had escaped from their caves.
They kept continuously running in shouting circles for an hour when
one of the girls to her horror felt a large cup of raindrop on her palm.
This marked the beginning of the end of their short-lived happiness.
Margot could not witness this phenomenon as she was locked in the
closet by William. He and the other children were envious of Margot as
she was the only child who had seen the sun while living on earth.
Moreover, she never used to play or mingle with the other children.
After experiencing the delightful warmth of the sun, they now realized
Margot's withdrawn and aloof behavior was due to the absence of this
magnificent divine creation. Thus their feeling of apathy and hostility
towards Margot had now converted to one of empathy and compassion. [4]
