Passage

Hriattirna : A hnuaia hla thu hi ngun takin chhiar la, zawhna chhanna dik ber thlang chhuak rawh. (Q.Nos. 100 to 105)
Tuimal far tête chu, Tiauvut hrang awm khawm;
Tuipui lian a tlinin, Ram nuam a lo awm.

Hetiang mit khap kâr tê, Sawi tham nilo hi;
Thangthar kim tling zelin, Chatuan a lo ni.

Chutiang kan sualte chuan, Kan thlarau a hruai;
Sual ram pik deuh deuhvah, Tin, kan lo vanduai.

Thu ngilnei naran hian; Thinlung a tiharh;
A then chauh lo chhuak hian, Lung ngui a tidarh.

Khawngaih thil nawi tê tê, Man nei tham lo chu;
Rem thu lêng atan chuan, Ro aiin a hlu.

Khawngaih a lo khat e, Thil leh thu nâwi hian;
Kan lei a tihlim e, Chatuan van ang khian.

Q101

Ruah mal te te infinkhawmin engnge a siam ?

  1. (1) Tui lianCorrect answer
  2. (2) Khawvel zau
  3. (3) Tuifinfiat zau
  4. (4) Ram ngaw zau

Solution.

CBSE answer: (1)

Answer: (1) Tui lian

  1. Stanza 1 says: "Tuimal far tête chu ... Tuipui lian a tlinin" (tiny drops of water gather and become a great body of water).
  2. "Tui lian" (big water) is taken straight from the poem's own words "tuipui lian".
  3. The stem asks about raindrops (ruah mal) gathering, and gathered rain does make big water.
  4. The lesson: small things joined together make something huge.

Trap: (3) "Tuifinfiat zau" (wide ocean) gives the same meaning in other words and can be defended, but (1) is the option that keeps the poem's wording.
