Travel MCQ - Practice Questions with Answers

The four main directions are north, south, east and west. The question lists all four by name, so the count is four. At the primary stage, these are the directions children learn first; sub-directions like north-east or south-west come a little later, so they are not part of the basic four.

A means of transport is anything that helps people or goods move from one place to another. A bicycle, bus, train, boat and aeroplane all carry people on land, water or in the air. The other groups list classroom objects, things in the sky and items used while eating, which do not carry us anywhere.

Walking, riding a bicycle, using a bullock cart, bus or boat are all ways of travel for primary children. Statement 1 is correct because walking is the most common short-distance travel. Statement 3 is correct because boats are used in places where rivers, ponds or coastal water are available. Statement 2 is wrong because non-motor vehicles like bicycles, carts and boats are also transport. Statement 4 is wrong because aeroplanes are used only for very long journeys, not for every daily trip.

The journey starts with walking to the bus stop with an adult (ii), then sitting safely in the bus (iii), then getting down at the stop near the school (i), and finally crossing the road carefully and entering the school gate (iv). This order matches what a primary child actually does during a daily bus ride and also teaches the safety habit of following each step in sequence.

Option C is best because it begins with the child's family experience, then turns those reasons into shared categories like work, school, hospital, festival, market and meeting relatives. This is a primary-stage method that builds observation, classification and oral expression. Copying, silent listening and rote memorising do not let children link the topic to real life.
