(a) 1 and 3
(b) 17 and 51
(c) 30 and 10
(d) 6 and 18

Answer: (c) 30 and 10
For direct variation,

x1	=	x2
y1		y2

Thus x/y = 13/39 = 1/3. Options (a), (b) and (d) have the same ratio while option (c) does not.

(a) 2 and 3
(b) 8 and 12
(c) 15 and 20
(d) 25 and 37.5

Question(CBSE 2013 comptt):

Surely, Shakespeare is wicked, the map a bad example,
With ships and sun and love tempting them to steal—
For lives that slyly turn in their cramped holes
From fog to endless night? On their slag heap, these children
Wear skins peeped through by bones and spectacles of steel
With mended glass, like bottle bits on stones.

2: Shakespeare is described as wicked because any learning about him makes no sense for the children. They are troubled by hunger, despair and failed aspiration, learning about Shakespeare would not make their lives any better.

Answer: The Champaran episode was a landmark in Gandhian style of fighting against the British rule. It was a long drawn but patient and peaceful agitation. The Champaran campaign was an attempt to free poor peasants of Champaran from injustice and exploitation at the hands of Britishers. Gandhi adopted a legal, moral and democratic path of negotiation. He appealed to the concerned authorities but they ignored his's plea.

Gandhiji gave moral courage to peasants and asked them need not fear. He made the peasants aware of their rights and gave them the confidence to fight their own battles. His disobedience movement along with the peasants forced landlords to agree to pay 25% amount due. Finally, his efforts paid off and emancipated the peasants from the clutches of landlords.
