Read the given passage and answer the questions that follow.
Key factors influencing subway air pollution will include station depth, date of construction, type of ventilation (natural/air conditioning), types of brakes (electromagnetic or conventional brake pads) and wheels (rubber or steel) used on the trains, train frequency and more recently the presence or absence of platform screen-door systems. In particular, much subway particulate matter is sourced from moving train parts such as wheels and brake pads, as well as from the steel rails and power-supply materials, making the particles dominantly iron-containing. To date, there is no clear epidemiological indication of abnormal health effects on underground workers and commuters. New York subway workers have been exposed to such air without significant observed impacts on their health, and no increased risk of lung cancer was found among subway train drivers in the Stockholm subway system. But a note of caution is struck by the observations of scholars who found that employees working on the platforms of Stockholm underground, where PM concentrations were greatest, tended to have higher levels of risk markers for cardiovascular disease than ticket sellers and train drivers. The dominantly ferrous particles are mixed with particles from a range of other sources, including rock ballast from the track, biological aerosols such as bacteria and viruses, and air from the outdoors, and driven through the tunnel system on turbulent air currents generated by the trains themselves and ventilation systems.
Question
What is the passage about?
Option 1: Metro life and the subway facilities
Option 2: The benefits of subway life
Option 3: The risky life in the subways
Option 4: Pollution created by the railroad
Correct Answer: The risky life in the subways
Solution : The correct option is the third option.
Explanation:
The passage primarily discusses the potential health risks associated with subway air pollution. It highlights factors influencing subway air quality and mentions the absence of clear health effects among workers and commuters, but also raises caution regarding higher risk markers for cardiovascular disease among certain subway employees. So, the passage focuses on the risks associated with subway life rather than solely discussing the benefits, infrastructure, or general metro life, making the third option, the risky life in the subways, the most appropriate choice.
Therefore, the correct answer is, "The risky life in the subways".

Question
Which of the following diseases is found commonly among workers in underground subways?
Option 1: Abdominal
Option 2: Cardiovascular
Option 3: Renal
Option 4: Pulmonary
Correct Answer: Cardiovascular
Solution : The correct option is the second option.
Explanation:
The passage indicates that workers on the platforms of the Stockholm underground, where particulate matter concentrations were the highest, displayed higher levels of risk markers for cardiovascular disease compared to ticket sellers and train drivers. This suggests a potential association between exposure to subway air pollution and an increased risk of cardiovascular issues among subway workers.
Therefore, the correct answer is cardiovascular.
Question : Which of the following is considered a capital expense?
Option 1: Pension
Option 2: Payment of salaries
Option 3: Subsidies
Option 4: Construction of school buildings

Hi Raju,
Yes you can learn anything you want to improve your skills and want to explore other field as well.
See, there are various online resources available for different different courses, you just need to filter and know what you actually want to pursue further.
It doesn't matter whether you have prior knowledge or not. Make a fresh start.

If construction Question of Marks 3 in class 10 cbse. I had only drawn the construction diagram without writing steps . Then how much Marks will detected in board exam ?
Hello Gayatri,
If you have drawn the construction completely correct so even if you have not written the steps for the construction you will easily get 2 marks . In boards the correction of papers is lineant generally.
But in this case luck does matter . If you paper is checked by someone who is strict in checking then for sure he will give 1-1.5 marks instead 2 marks. So these things matter a lot in boards .
