Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow. The United Kingdom’s Social Mobility Commission study reports that disadvantaged children in England are being priced out of a cultural hinterland. Children aged 10-15 from low-income families are three times less likely than wealthier peers to engage in out-of-school musical activities, such as learning an instrument etc. There were also differences according to race – 4% of British Pakistani children took part in music classes, compared with 28% of Indian children and 20% of white children – and regional divides: 9% of children in north-east England played a musical instrument, compared with 22% in the south-east. Disadvantaged children are also more likely to miss out on extracurricular sports (football, boxing, cricket) and drama, dance and art. The commission set out recommendations, including bursaries, better funding and support for schools – let’s hope they’re taken on board. As well as the activities themselves, children are missing out on other crucial gains including confidence-building, team spirit and social skill, and are less likely to go on to higher education. Extracurricular activities tend to cost money, but there are also problems with a lack of availability and access, such as schools being unable to afford to run after-school clubs or stay open during holidays. Another barrier is the kids’ “fear of not fitting in”. In this sense, certain children are self-excluding from, say, learning an instrument, singing in a choir, playing cricket or acting. They decide by themselves that they’re “undeserving” of music, sport, art and drama. Unbelievably, in 2019, children as young as 10 are already hard-wired with the self-limiting poverty notion of “not for the likes of us”. This is heartbreaking. It’s hardly news that life is tougher for poorer children, but it’s an outrage if all sense of curiosity, artistry and playfulness is knocked out of them so early. Something is wrong if better-off children feel entitled to explore and participate in areas that interest and excite them, while the disadvantaged are cast from the start as cultural wallflowers – doomed to sit out every dance. This isn’t about every child learning the piano or violin (but why not?), it’s about sowing the seeds for a cultural hinterland that will sustain and enrich them for life. It’s about people exploring their passions and refusing to have their horizons artificially limited. Regardless of circumstances, all children should know that their faces “fit” – automatically and forever. Culture belongs to everyone. How will a wholesome education including arts and sports not benefit the disadvantaged?

Read the following paragraph carefully to answer the questions that follow. These questions are linked i.e. questions can borrow information from each other’s question or solution. Solve the question carefully. 2 factories employ men and women to produce remote-controlled (RC) toy cars of 3 different sizes – small, medium and big. Men in factory A take 5 hours to make a small RC car alone, 7 hours to make a medium car alone and 9 hours to make the big one. A woman in factory A takes 6 hours, 7 hours and 8 hours to make a small, a medium and a big one alone. The men of factory B are 80% as efficient as the men in factory A, and the women in factory B are 110% as efficient as women of factory A. All workers in factory A work for 8 hours and in factory B work for 9 hours. Factory B gets a contract of manufacturing 100 small, 120 medium and 80 big sized cars. How much time (approx days) will they take to complete this order if the factory employs 10 male and 12 female workers alternatively i.e. one day only male workers work and the next day only female workers work, and so on? Also, males work on making small and medium cars, where as females work only on big cars.
