Q1In this Social Studies topic, gender sensitization mainly means which classroom approach?
Gender sensitization at this level focuses on equal respect, equal participation, and avoiding gender stereotypes in classroom examples and tasks.
Q2A teacher reminds the class that Vedic culture should be discussed with source caution and respectful language rather than broad judgments. Which classroom principle is being applied?
The teacher is applying source caution by asking learners to discuss evidence carefully and respectfully. The other choices either overstate certainty or shut down history, which is not appropriate at this level.
Q3Assertion: The Indus script does not allow teachers to read the civilization's full history directly. Reason: The script is not fully deciphered, so historians must rely on material remains and careful inference.
The assertion is true because the Indus script has not been fully deciphered. The reason correctly explains that historians therefore depend on material remains and careful inference, so option A is right.
Q4Why should social themes in this topic be taught through diversity, change, and respectful discussion?
This approach helps learners see that social life changes and differs across context, which prevents stereotyping. The strongest wrong choice is the universal pattern option, because the topic explicitly requires respect for diversity.
Q5Match the social idea with the best example. Column A: 1. Family 2. Marriage 3. Rural life. Column B: a. Socially recognized relationship between adults b. Care, support, and responsibilities among members c. Farming-based livelihood and village setting. Which matching is correct?
Family matches care, support, and responsibilities among members; marriage matches a socially recognized relationship between adults; rural life matches farming-based livelihood and village setting.
