Q.1	Tim's family planned a picnic near a lake. While they were there, dark clouds formed, and it began to rain heavily. Tim remembered studying about this stage of the water cycle. Which stage of the water cycle did the heavy rain represent?
	a) Evaporation		b) Condensation
	c) Collection		d) Precipitation

Q.2	A manufacturing plant heavily relies on coal for energy generation. Over time, nearby vegetation starts to show signs of browning, and local residents complain about respiratory issues. What environmental impact is most likely a result of this plant's operation? 1. Soil enrichment 2. Reduced air particulate matter 3. Increased carbon sequestration 4. Airborne pollutants affecting plant and human health
	a) Only 1		b) Only 4
	c) Both 2 and 4		d) Both 3 and 4

Q.3	Your closet is overflowing with clothes you rarely wear. How can you reuse these items instead of throwing them away? 1. Donate them to charity for someone else to enjoy. 2. Upcycle them into new creations like tote bags or pillowcases. 3. Host a clothing swap with friends to exchange unwanted items.
	a) Only 1		b) Only 2
	c) Only 2 and 3		d) 1, 2 and 3

Q.4	A local community organises a recycling event. They provide separate collection bins for paper, plastic, glass, and electronic waste. Which of the following actions is appropriate at the event?
	a) Throwing all items in the same bin.		b) Separating and placing each type of recyclable in its designated bin.

Q.6	One summer, Peter and his friends ventured into the nearby woods. Continuing their exploration, the friends stumbled upon a meadow where they used to see a variety of butterflies during spring. However, this time, there were noticeably fewer butterflies. What could be a potential cause for this decline? 1. Decline in available nectar sources for butterflies. 2. Changes in temperature and weather patterns affecting the butterfly population. 3. Natural predator population increase, preying on butterflies. 4.

Q.10	A rapidly growing city is planning its expansion. Developer A proposes building high-rise apartments with minimal green space to maximise housing, while Developer B advocates for incorporating several large parks and green corridors throughout the development. A heated debate ensues, with arguments for and against each approach. Which developer makes the stronger case for the city's long-term well-being, and why?
