Read the following paragraph and answer the following questions :
As the world’s population approaches 8 billion and resource use intensifies, pollution is ever more extensive, pervasive, and persistent. It affects our health through the food we eat, the water we drink and the air we breathe. By 2025, the world’s cities will produce 2.2 billion tonnes of waste every year, more than three times the amount produced in 2009. That said, pollution is not a new phenomenon and is largely controllable and often avoidable, as shown in some countries and cities that have succeeded in decoupling economic growth from pollution and waste accumulation.
With the end goal to eradicate all forms of pollution by 2030, the UN Environment Program was tasked by the UN Environment Assembly to coordinate the implementation of a global plan reiterating that pollution is not only an environmental priority, it’s a priority for the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals.

Read the given passage and answer the questions that follow.
My home town in the mid – 1970s was a laid – back place, resmbling a remote rural area, except in having some amenities, our house was almost at one end of the town. About 15 km away, there was a small village where a fair was held for a week every year during the harvest season. The village deity was worshipped by many from the places in the vicinity.
Devotees thronged the fair not only for divine blessings but also for watching street-shows and other entertainment events. Only a mud track led to the village and everyone reached there by walking or on bullock carts.
My father, an advocate by profession was popular among the villagers. His clients from the place used to arrange bullock carts for us and a few family friends and relatives to attend the fair.
The journey would start early in the morning. We children will be in a separate cart. I used to eagerly look forward to this occasion every year as though was a journey of a life – time and worth enjoying every minute of it. Money saved for this fair would be tucked firmly in my pockets during the journey. Whenever the cart jerked or sped away, I would hold my pockets tightly so that coins would not spill out .
The crowd at the temple in the foothill used to be highly unorganised, especially the food counter where prasadam was served. Hot and spicy puffed rice and tea made of jaggery were the delectable combination of food and beverage every devotee craved for .
going to the temple used to be the last priority of us children. Fearing elders’ warth, we would hurriedly finish the formality of darshan.
Q-1 : Which one of the following statements in not true ?
A) Prasad distributed there was very delicious.
B) People visited the fair for divine blessings.
