Paper was first manufactured in

Directions: Read the following passage carefully and answer the given question:

Did you know that around 270 eucalyptus trees or 460 bamboo plants per tonne of paper produced are saved by the manufacture of handmade paper? Are you aware that handmade paper helps in preventing water, land and air pollution because very small quantities of chemicals are used compared to the large quantity of polluting chemicals used by paper mills?  

Handmade paper is an eco-friendly product and the demand for it is growing rapidly in the world. It is considered the best form of recycled paper. Not only does it have an elegant and exquisite surface for writing but is very strong and almost indestructible. Artists find it has an unmatched texture for drawing.

Paper manufacturing is one of the traditional industries of the world and its invention in China dates back to 105 AD. Indians probably used paper made from cellulose fibres during the third century AD. Before this period the leaves of palm trees were used in India. Papyrus, a kind of paper made from a reed of the same name that grew on the banks of the River Nile, was used in Egypt.

The handmade paper industry, which flourished in India during the Mughal period, declined with the establishment of paper mills in the 18th and 19th centuries. Inspired by Mahatma Gandhi, it was revived during the freedom movement. Today it is a growing industry producing paper worth crores of rupees.

The word ‘anxious’ means

Directions: Read the following passage carefully and answer the given question:

In the past, learning English as a separate subject seemed relatively easy. The textbook selected and graded items of language, which were put into context and then practiced intensively. New items were carefully controlled so that the student could cope quite easily. Now that English is used as a medium of instruction, however, all this has changed. Unknown items of grammar and vocabulary appear in texts which attempt to explain new and often difficult information. Difficulties as regards the language interact with difficulties as regards the subject matter. The student's reading in his own subject slows down, and his comprehension becomes less secure. He expresses himself slowly and often fails to convey his ideas exactly. He is disappointed to find that under pressure he makes a lot of unnecessary mistakes in areas where he knows the correct language forms. His social relations are difficult as he cannot find the right phrase quickly enough to keep a conversation going. So his language often betrays him into dullness, coldness, or worst of all, rudeness. Instead of the student being in control of the language, the language seems now to be in control of the student.
All this can be very depressing and the student can start to feel anxious. Working in a foreign language is also very tiring, and the concentration and self-­discipline required to correct one's mistake is very great indeed.
