There was a time when only men performed the Kathakali dance but now women also perform it. Manipuri dance is typical style from Manipur in north eastern India. Odissi is from Orissa.

1390.	If you think a taxidermist has anything to do with driving a taxi then you will learn something new by the end of this passage. A taxidermist is a person whose job is to preserve dead animals and show them as they looked when they were alive. The word taxidermy comes from two Greek words meaning arrangement and skin. A taxidermist first takes exact measurements of the body of the dead animal. He/She then carefully removes and cleans the skin with a preservative or a special soap. The taxidermist then makes a drawing of the animal?s body structure, including its muscles and bones. This is done so that by looking at the drawing he/she makes a skeleton frame of the animal out of metal or wood. Or he/she may use the real skeleton of the animal if it is available. To this skeleton, the taxidermist adds clay and completes the animal's shape to make a mould. Once the shape is ready, it is used to make casting from the mould. Finally, the skin of the animal is glued and sewed on to the casting or sculpture of the animal. To become a taxidermist, a person needs to be proficient at natural history, drawing, sculpture, mechanics and dyeing. The first thing a taxidermist does is to ______.
A.	Make a mould
B.	remove the skin
C.	take measurements of the animal
D.	Both [a] and [b]
E.	None of these
Answer» D. Both [a] and [b]

1392.	A glacier is a huge block of ice that flows very slowly over land. Glaciers are formed in the North Pole and South Pole and in high mountains. The cold climate and low temperatures in these areas help large amounts of ice to collect and turn into ice blocks. Glaciers begin to form when more snow falls during the winter months than it evaporates in the summer months. The snow builds up in layers and these layers get heavy because of their weight. Gradually, the ice becomes so thick that it begins to move because of its own weight and starts to move down the mountains. This happens due to the Law of Gravity As they move down the slopes of mountains they melt very slowly getting heat from the Earth. As glaciers move downwards, they also change the shape of the land they move on. Most glaciers flow extremely slowly and move less than 30 centimetres a day But some glaciers can also flow up to 15 centimetres a day. The various parts of a glacier move at different speed. The central and upper part of a glacier flows the fastest. The sides and bottom move more slowly because they rub against the walls and floor of the valley. World's most famous glaciers are in Europe. They lie in the French and Swiss Alps. They are Mer de Glace and the Aletsch Glacier. There are glaciers in North America as well, such as the Malaspina Glacier in Alaska. The ______ climate and ______ temperatures help large amounts of ice blocks to form.
A.	low, warm
B.	humid, cold
C.	Cold, low
D.	cold, moderate
E.	None of these
Answer» D. cold, moderate
