HOW TO HANDLE THE RC 'TONE' QUESTIONS?

Compare the passages below: Passage ( i ) The treadmill began to whir, and I gripped its handlebars as the belt started moving me backwards.  All I could do now was  run -- or begrudgingly barrel forward -- toward an outdated screen that showed me the terrain I was supposed to be running on.  It was made of red squares stacked up, one on top of another: the higher stacks were supposed to be steep hills, and the lower ones,valleys. I tried to picture them as burning coals to see if that would make me speed up or at least feel like this exercise was somehow connected to nature -- even one of its cruel parts.   Passage (ii) The treadmill began to whir, and my heart sped up faster than the belt could go.  Instead of pressing "select" on my  remote  control  to escape into a TV show, I had just selected "Power Run."  A sleek screen with a simple set of red lines  showed me  the  terrain  on which I was running.T...

TIMES SPARK SAMPLE MOCK TEST 2

Times Spark Mock Test 2 by Adhirit Academy READ THE PASSAGES CAREFULLY & ANSWER THE QUESTIONS BELOW Try to Attempt in only 5-6 minutes ALL THE BEST STUDENTS Passage 1:Is the Taj Mahal history or heritage? The answer depends on which of the two doors we take when we step into the past. One could well be marked “His“ and the other “Her“; because through one you see “History“ and through the other, “Heritage“. In many ways, history is the way a patriarchal narrative presents itself. There are goals to be accomplished and there are grand personages forcing them. Peasants and workers, artisans and traders are drawn in, but they did not start the plot.Whether it be war or peace, or licence to make and sell, those below either submit or rebel on a stage set by others. Heritage is very different. It is about ordinary people who are skilled, resourceful, adventurous and risk taking; but not war like, nor policy driven. Heritage proceeds in peace and there are no great movers an...
