3. PREFACE
The Directorate of Education has decided to initiate the formulation of support
material for ‘Problem Solving Assessment’
(PSA) for all the government school
students of class IX (2012-13). This handy tool is a part of our endeavor to enhance
the research and analytical life skills ability.
It is a widely acknowledged fact that the ability to apply basic concepts to
solve application based problems in mathematics and science and to comprehend
and analyse written text are the skills which ensure success in higher studies and
professional growth. These life skills will greatly assist learners in acquiring high
order thinking skills such as problem solving and decision making. It will greatly
assist the learners to crack the public entrance examinations.
Quantitative Reasoning, Qualitative Reasoning and Language Conventions
will greatly help the students to understand arithmetic problems, use logic in form
of relationships ,analogies and directions. All these items would develop creative
thinking, decision making, critical thinking, problem solving and communicational
skills. It would assess student’s ability to process, interpret and use information. At
the same time it would increase the curiosity of students and help in their
intellectual growth.

Passage Based MCQ
Passage No. – 1
Disability refers to any kind of physical or mental incapacity that limits a person‟s ability to work. Yet it is seldom
that we have thanked God for the gift of Good health and well being. The smallest actions like seeing the sunrise,
brushing our teeth, popping peanuts into your mouth come so naturally and effortlessly, and Yet we are never
satisfied, always discontented. It is not so for the disabled. For them it requires immense concentration, effort, will
power, energy and a lot of time. Despite this, it could be a long way of perfection.
It takes great courage and determination to cope with disability. We can make life easier for them by becoming
more sensitive to their handicap, their needs and their problems.
Feeling of pity or under sympathy will only shake their confidence. Give them encouragement, facilities and
resources, and then watch them as they learn, earn, play, work and even start their families.
Very often we find that a person lacking in one faculty is gifted in some other way. That‟s nature‟s way of
maintaining balance. Some of the most beautiful greeting cards are made by disabled children, using one hand, one

22. Passage No. – 2
Once a man saw three masons along with some labourers were constructing a temple. He observed the masons for
some days and found that though the three of them were doing the same kind of work, there was a marked
difference in their approach to their job.
He saw that the first mason reported for his work late, did his work half-heartedly and sluggishly enjoyed longer
respite, frequently checked the time on his wrist-watch and left the work before time.
The second mason was very punctual in arriving and leaving, and did his work methodically and conscientiously.
The third mason, however, would come before time, took little rest in the interval and often worked over-time.
The man naturally got curious and wanted to know the three masons‟ outlook own their work. He asked them what
they were doing. The first mason tapped his protruding belly with his hand and said, I am earning fuel for this
belly. The second said „I am constructing a building. Third looked at the stately edifice and said “I am building the
house of God”.

Just as it is vital for parents to live their own lives as fully is possible and to deepen their understanding of
themselves to the utmost, so it is important for teachers and educators to do the same. When children go to school
their teachers become, during school hours, substitutes for their parents. The children transfer to their teacher some
of the feelings they have for their parents and are influenced in their turn by the personalities of the teachers. This
mutual relationship is of more importance than any teaching method, and a child‟s ability to learn is continually
hampered if the relationship is unsatisfactory. Again, if teacher really want to be educators, to help children to
develop into satisfactory men and women, and not simply to stuff them knowledge, they will only be really
successful if they themselves have sound personalities. No amount of preaching, however well done, no principles
however sound, no clever technique of mechanical aids can replace the influence of a well – developed personality.

Passage No. 3
The phenomenon of change of a liquid into its vapour at any temperature below its boiling
point is called evaporation. Wet clothes dry up in air due to the evaporation of water. Rate of
evaporation increases with increase in temperature. The particles in a liquid have different
kinetic energies. Some particles have lower kinetic energies and other have higher kinetic
energies. The particles having higher kinetic energies at the surface of the liquid overcome the
forces of attraction of other particles, leave the surface and get converted into vapour.
Evaporation is continuous process and particles keep on escaping the surface of the liquid.
1. At what temperature evaporation takes place?
(i)
At boiling point
(ii) Above boiling point
(iii) At room temperature
(iv) Below boiling point
2. How do wet clothes dry-up?
(i)
Due to condensation
(ii) Due to evaporation
(iii) Due to surface tension
(iv) Due to temperature

3. What is the effect of temperature on evaporation?
(i)
Increases with temperature
(ii) Decreases with temperature
(iii) No effect of temperature
(iv) None of these
4. What type of energy do the particles have in a liquid?
(i)
Electrical energy
(ii) Potential energy
(iii) Kinetic energy

2001. Literacy is not only a right, it is also needed if the citizen are to perform their
duties and enjoy their right properly. However, a vast difference is noticed across
different sections of population. Literacy among males is nearly 50% higher than
females and it is about 50% higher in urban areas as compared to the rural areas.
Literacy rates vary from 96% in some district of Kerala to below 30% in some parts of
Madhya Pradesh.

cell body. It also contains cytoplasm. Dendron are hair-like parts arises from the cell
body. Various branches come out of the Dendron and these are called dendrites. Each
neuron has a long, thick and cylindrical part, which is called axon. The nerve endings
attached to the lateral braches of the axon, known as synapse. Dendrites receive
impulses and axon takes away from the cell body.

The great advantage of early rising is the good start it gives for one’s daily
work. The early riser is able to complete a lot of work before others even get
out of their bed. As the mind is fresh in the morning, free from distractions,
one is able to do quality work. One is able, if so inclined, to have early morning
exercises which keep one energetic throughout the day. Thus one completes
one’s work during the day without hurrying much and is left with enough time
in the evening for play or entertainment or relaxation by a leisurely walk. This
leads to a good night’s rest after which one is able to rise fresh, the next
morning to face another day.

PASSAGE POEM
My Tree
O Tree, so big and stout and strong,
You`ve lived so very very long
A hundred years or more I`m told
And yet you are not so very old
A hundred secrets you could tell
Of children whom you love so well
Who came and sat beneath your shade
Or underneath your branches played
A hundred birds have built their nests
Your leaves have softly kissed their breasts
Your branches seem to touch the sky
Yet you were once as small as I.
Some day when I have grown up, too,
I`m coming back to visit you;
And changed though other things will be,
I’ll find the same dear friendly tree
