Source-based Questions:

Question 1.
Read the following passage on ‘Groundwater in India’ given on Textbook Page 14 and then answer the questions that follow:

MCQ Questions for Class 10 Economics Chapter 1 Development with Answers 1
Groundwater in India: “Recent evidence suggests that the groundwater is under serious threat of overuse in many parts of the country. About 300 districts have reported a water level decline of over 4 metres during the past 20 years. Nearly one- third of the country is overusing their groundwater reserves. In another 25 years,60 per cent of the country would be doing the same if the present way of using this resource continues. Groundwater overuse is particularly found in the agriculturally prosperous regions of Punjab and Western U.P., hard rock plateau areas of central and south India, some coastal areas and the rapidly growing urban settlements.
(a) Why ground water is overused?
(b) Can there be development without overuse?
(i) Why is groundwater overused?
(ii) Can there be development without overuse?

Answer

Answer:
(i) Groundwater is used for the purpose of agriculture.
(ii) Yes. There can be development without the overuse of groundwater. Since this natural resource is easily available, we don’t value it much and use it recklessly for our selfish purposes. We must stop overusing it so that it may be there for our future generations.


Question 2.
Read the following passage on ‘Exhaustion of Natural Resources’ given on Textbook Page 15 and then answer the questions that follow:
Exhaustion of Natural Resources: Look at the following data for crude oil.

Table 1.7 Crude Oil Reserves
MCQ Questions for Class 10 Economics Chapter 1 Development with Answers 2
Source : BP Statistical Review of World Energy, June 2014

The table gives an estimate of reserves of crude oil (column 1). More important, it also tells us for how many years the stock of crude oil will last if people continue to extract it at the present rate. The reserves would last only 53 years more. This is for the world as a whole. However, different countries face different situations. Countries like India depend on importing oil from abroad because they do not have enough stocks of their own. If prices of oil increase this becomes a burden for everyone. There are countries like USA which have low reserves and hence want to secure oil through military or economic power. The question of sustainability of development raises many fundamentally new issues about the nature and process of development.

Questions:
(i) Is crude oil essential for the development process in a country? Discuss.
(ii) India has to import crude oil. What problems do you anticipate for the country looking at the above situation?

Answer

Answer:
(i) Yes, crude oil plays an important role in the development process in a country. It can generate heat, drive machinery and fuel vehicle and airplanes. Its components are used to manufacture almost all chemical products, such as plastics, detergents, paints and even medicines.
(ii) The future is bleak because the reserves of oil would last only 53 years more. It is high time to think collectively. It will be in favour of all.
