Work and Play Questions and Answers

1.

Rama plays cricket with his friends every evening. Which energy does he use to play cricket ?

Exam Year(s)

CTET - 2023,

Answer: C

Rama uses muscular energy.

Playing cricket, running, batting, bowling and fielding, is done by the contraction of muscles. In the simple classification of energy used in primary EVS, the energy we use for such physical work is muscular energy. It comes ultimately from the food we eat.

Light and sound energy are not what powers the body's movement. Chemical energy is stored in food and released in the body, but the energy he directly uses to play is muscular energy, which is the textbook answer.

2.

A chapter in EVS textbook of NCERT describes Wahida Prism and her experience in the Navy as a doctor. What are the reasons for including this chapter ?

(a) Her experience challenges gender stereotypes
(b) Her story gives a peep into the life of a medical officer in the armed forces
(c) Understanding that prism reflects 7 colours
(d) Understanding the difficulties faced by her and her ways of tackling them

Exam Year(s)

CTET - 2024,

Answer: D

The reasons are (b), (d) and (a).

A chapter on a woman doctor in the Navy shows children a woman in a role often thought of as male, challenging gender stereotypes (a); it gives a glimpse of the life and work of a medical officer in the armed forces (b); and it shows the difficulties she faced and how she tackled them, which can inspire children (d).

Statement (c) only plays on her name: the chapter is not about how a prism splits light into seven colours, so every option including (c) is wrong.
