FA2 model slip test for class 7 English



FORMATIVE ASSESSMENT – 2 (SLIP TEST) FOR CLASS 7 ENGLISH
Name of the student: …………………………………………………………………………………. Max Marks: 20
I.                    Read the following paragraph and answer the questions.
A few years earlier, A.H. Compton had shown that the nature of X-rays changes when passed through matter. The change was dependent on the kind of matter. This effect was called the ‘Compton Effect’.
Could light also change its nature when passed through a transparent medium? That was the question that Raman asked himself. For five years he had been doing research in optics, the science of light. No sophisticated equipment was available in his laboratory, but Raman was confident that he could find the answer with some modifications in his equipment.
Four months later on March 16, 1928, Raman announced his discovery of ‘new radiation’ (describing the behavior of a beam of light passing through a liquid chemical) to an assembly of scientists at Bangalore (now called Bengaluru)
The world hailed the discovery as the ‘Raman Effect.’ For scientific research in the country, it was a red-letter day. His discovery caught the attention of the world. With equipment worth hardly Rs. 200 and limited facilities, Raman was able to make a discovery which won him the Nobel Prize in physics in 1930.
Raman was born on November 7, 1888, at Tiruchurapalli in Tamil Nadu. His father was a college physics teacher. He was a brilliant student right from the start.
