  • Question
  • Statement: Some strains of mosquito have become resistant to chloroquine - the widely used medicine for malaria patients.

    Courses of Action:

    1. Selling of chloroquine should be stopped.
    2. Researchers should develop a new medicine for patients affected by such mosquitoes.
    3. All the patients suffering from malaria should be checked for identification of causal mosquito.


  • Options
  • A. None follows
  • B. Only I and III follow
  • C. All follow
  • D. Only II and III follow
  • E. None of these

  • Correct Answer
  • Only II and III follow 

    Explanation
    Clearly, chloroquine can still be used to get rid of the non-resistant varieties, and new medicines developed for the resistant varieties. The patients can then be treated accordingly by performing tests for the causal mosquito. So, only II and III follow.

    • 1. It is up to our government and planners to devise ways and means for the mobilisation of about ten crore workers whose families total up about forty crore men, women and children. Our agriculture is over-manned. A lesser number of agriculturists would mean more purchasing or spending power to every agriculturist. This will result in the shortage of man-power for many commodities to be produced for which there will be a new demand from a prosperous agrarian class. This shortage will be removed by surplus man-power released from agriculture as suggested above.

      The passage best supports the statement that:

    • Options
    • A. employment in production is more fruitful than employment in agriculture.
    • B. Indian economy is in a poor shape basically due to improper mobilisation of man-power.
    • C. a shift of labour from agricultural sector to the industrial sector would uplift the living standard.
    • D. the industrial sector is labour-deficient while the agricultural sector is over-manned in our country.
