Practice questions
Q1Statement 1: Tin, mud, brick and bamboo can all be house materials. Statement 2: The same material is best for every place and every family. Statement 3: Children can compare materials by observing properties. Which option is correct?
A Only Statement 2 is correct
B Statements 1 and 2 are correct
C Statements 2 and 3 are correct
D Statements 1 and 3 are correct
Explanation Karan should reject the word every in Statement 2. Tin, mud, brick and bamboo may all be used, but the better choice depends on local needs; observation helps children compare.
Q2A teacher asks children why houses in different places are made from different materials. Which answer should be accepted as the most complete EVS explanation?
A Only because all people like the same fashionable design
B Only because heavy materials are always better than light materials
C Only because older houses are always unsafe
D Because climate, available materials, cost, safety and local practice affect house construction
Explanation House materials vary because people respond to climate, availability, cost, safety and local practice. Fashion, weight or age alone cannot explain why mud, brick, bamboo, stone, wood, tin, glass or concrete may be used in different places.
Q3Which statement is the best Level 1 explanation of handloom and powerloom?
A Handloom is woven with human skill; powerloom uses power to run the loom
B Handloom means old cloth and powerloom means new cloth
C Handloom cloth is always costly and powerloom cloth is always weak
D Both words mean the same kind of machine
Explanation Meena should learn a respectful, simple distinction: human-operated weaving skill versus power-driven loom. That is enough for Level 1 and avoids unsupported claims about price or quality.
Q4Mary uses a wheelchair. Her group is sorting house-material samples kept on the floor. What should the teacher do?
A Ask Mary to watch while others complete the task
B Cancel the activity for the whole class
C Move samples to a table and let Mary decide classifications with the group
D Give Mary a separate written worksheet on materials
Explanation Mary should get the same concept goal as others: observe, compare and classify materials. Moving samples to an accessible table changes the arrangement, not the expectation, and protects dignity.
Q5Match the living being with the best child-level habitat example. 1. Earthworm 2. Tailorbird 3. Squirrel
A 1-tree hollow, 2-soil, 3-stitched leaves
B 1-soil, 2-stitched leaves, 3-tree hollow
C 1-pond, 2-cow shed, 3-raincoat
D 1-brick wall, 2-uniform, 3-metal roof
Explanation Imran’s garden walk should connect each living being with the place it actually uses. Earthworms are linked with soil, tailorbirds with stitched leaves, and squirrels with tree hollows in the child-level examples.
