Q1At the primary level, which action best shows consumer protection while buying loose wheat from a shop?

A Accepting whatever the shopkeeper gives because the shop is old
B Checking the weight, price and condition of the grain before paying
C Buying only from the most expensive shop in the market
D Letting only adults ask about price because children should not observe
Explanation

Consumer protection at this stage means noticing fair weight, price, safety and complaint-related cues in daily buying. Trusting status, paying more, or excluding children from observation does not build that awareness.

Q2A teacher makes 12 picture cards for a class sorting activity on local work. Which way of describing this material is most honest?

A Say that the 12-card set is a fixed official list for every school.
B Hide that some cards were added to suit the local market.
C Claim that every rotation rule came from a textbook even if the teacher designed it.
D Say that the teacher made 12 cards and used local examples for sorting.
Explanation

Teacher-created cards, counts and rotation rules should be described as classroom material made for a purpose. Presenting them as fixed official lists or textbook rules misleads learners and exam candidates.

Q3Which order correctly shows the local chain from cotton to a shirt?

A Cotton, cloth, thread, shirt
B Thread, cotton, shirt, cloth
C Cotton, thread, cloth, shirt
D Shirt, cloth, thread, cotton
Explanation

A material-to-product chain begins with raw cotton, then thread, then cloth, and finally a stitched shirt. The other sequences either reverse the chain or place cloth before thread.

Q4Statement I: A vegetable vendor is part of the EVS topic on professions. Statement II: Only salaried office work should be called a profession. Choose the correct answer.

A Both statements are true
B Both statements are false
C Statement I is true and Statement II is false
D Statement I is false and Statement II is true
Explanation

Meena should learn that everyday work has social value. The syllabus example of a vegetable vendor directly protects local livelihood examples from being dismissed as less important than office work.

Q5Assertion: A cooperative society example can help children understand shared work. Reason: Cooperation always means one rich person gives money to all others.

A Both assertion and reason are true, and the reason explains the assertion
B Both assertion and reason are true, but the reason does not explain the assertion
C The assertion is false, but the reason is true
D The assertion is true, but the reason is false
Explanation

Joseph’s dairy example works because many members collect, sell or benefit together. The reason is false because a cooperative is not simply charity from one wealthy person.
