Study the following statements :

(a) Different chirpings of birds evoke different emotions in a birder.
(b) Sometimes birds make their nests hidden from public view.

  • A.(a) is right and (b) is wrong.
  • B.(b) is right and (a) is wrong.
  • C.Both (a) and (b) are right.
  • D.Both (a) and (b) are wrong.

Answer: C

The key takes both (a) and (b) as right.

(a) The writer says that 'every bird call evokes a different reaction, memory or emotion in the listener', as the flameback's laugh set a cheerful mood and the mynas recalled people in Delhi.

(b) The passage does not mention nests, so this statement does not come from the text. It is, however, generally true that birds often hide their nests among foliage, and the key counts it as right. Read strictly from the passage, only (a) is supported, so this is a question where the key relies on general knowledge for the second statement.
