Q1A question asks for the correct conceptual relation among pratyahara, dharana and dhyana. Which answer is best?

A Pratyahara, dharana and dhyana are three names for the same seated posture.
B Pratyahara is non-violence, dharana is truthfulness, and dhyana is non-possessiveness.
C Pratyahara is withdrawal from sense objects, dharana is concentration, and dhyana is sustained meditative contemplation.
D Pratyahara is forceful exhalation, dharana is nasal cleansing, and dhyana is abdominal churning.
Explanation

Pratyahara turns awareness away from external sense-contact, dharana fixes attention, and dhyana deepens that attention into meditation. This sequence is a common hard-test area because the terms are close but not interchangeable.

Q2Which pair is most appropriate when classifying camps by purpose?

A Wet camp and dry camp
B North camp and south camp
C Training camp and recreational camp
D Large camp and small camp
Explanation

Camps may be classified in several ways: by purpose, by duration, by season, by location and by participant group. When the basis is purpose, examples such as training camp, recreational camp, educational camp, leadership camp or adventure camp are more precise than labels based on size, direction or weather.

Q3A school has one playground shared by several classes. Which administrative step will best reduce clashes and misuse?

A Remove all markings so every game uses the same space
B Prepare a time-table and allot space according to activity needs
C Lock the playground during all recess periods
D Allow only senior students to use the playground
Explanation

Where facilities are limited, administration depends on fair scheduling, suitable activity zones and supervision. A time-table allows the same facility to serve more students without chaotic overlap or unsafe use.

Q4In theories of play, the view that play restores spent energy after serious work is best described as which theory?

A Recreation or relaxation theory
B Practice theory
C Recapitulation theory
D Surplus energy theory
Explanation

The recreation or relaxation theory, linked with Lazarus and Patrick, explains play as a way to regain energy and relax after tiring activity. Its key contrast is with surplus energy theory: play is needed because energy is depleted, not because energy is excessive.

Q5For a physical education department, what is the main purpose of maintaining a stock register for sports and recreation equipment?

A To replace lesson planning for recreational activities
B To list only the names of winning players
C To prove that outdoor facilities are unnecessary
D To record purchase, issue, return and condition of equipment
Explanation

A stock register is a basic control tool in recreation administration. It helps the PTI know available quantity, issue and return status, losses, repairs needed and future purchase requirements.
