Read the passage given below :
Modern technology plays a vital role in reducing road accidents and improving traffic flow. A study in three major cities — Delhi, Bengaluru, and Mumbai — found that using smart cameras, GPS tracking, and automated traffic lights improved safety significantly. AI-based monitoring systems detect traffic violations and alert authorities instantly. Drivers using navigation apps report fewer delays and accidents. Advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), like lane departure warnings and automatic braking, have made vehicles safer.

Mobile apps now alert drivers about congested routes and road hazards. In India, the introduction of e-challan systems has improved traffic rule enforcement and reduced human error. Moreover, data from surveillance cameras helps authorities identify accident-prone areas for quick intervention. Technology not only saves time but also saves lives by ensuring safer, smarter roads.

Read the following poem ‘The Rain’ by Kamala Das :
We left that old ungainly house
When my dog died there, after
The burial, after the rose
Flowered twice, pulling it by its
Roots and carting it with our books,
Clothes and chairs in a hurry.
We live in a new house now,
And, the roofs do not leak, but, when
It rains here, I see the rain drench
That empty house, I hear it fall
Where my puppy now lies.
Alone..

Read the following extract and answer the questions that follow:
Pity would be no more
If we did not make somebody Poor;
And Mercy no more could be
If all were as happy as we.
And mutual fear brings peace,
Till the selfish loves increase:
Then Cruelty knits a snare,
And spreads his baits with care.
He sits down with holy fears,
And waters the ground with tears;
Then Humility takes its root
Underneath his foot.
(The Human Abstract)
