I am a student of class 10. This is regarding the mistakes in the answer key and some of the questions in the Class 10 board term-1 English examination conducted on 11/12/2021
Set no:4
Series JSK/1
Question paper code: 002/1/4
I felt that the first passage given in Section A was very inappropriate and wasn't supposed to be given to class 10 students as it enforces conventional thinking. Also, there are mistakes in these questions:
Q2: I feel all four options could be correct since it is a very open ended question which is based on the opinion of students.
Q8: The answer for this question is given as option b in the answer key stating that the Bible talked of male superiority and hence was considered unsuitable for the young. I personally feel that option b is wrong.
Q46: In this question, it is very clear from the passage that option a is the correct answer. Yet, according to the answer key, the answer is option d, which is in no way connected to the question asked.
Please look into these questions and the answer key and make the suitable changes.
I felt the difficulty level of the paper was too high. The first passage was incomprehensible and there were about 3 to 4 questions which were supposedly 'based on the passage' but could not be inferred from it and was opinion based. There were various questions wherein either the correct answer wasn't there in the options or two or more options were correct(leading to confusion among students as to which option is correct). The first passage actually supported male chauvinism and stated that women are supposed to be obedient towards their husbands. This is not the message to be given to students. I'm surprised as to how such a passage found a place in a Class 10 question paper.
I hope the Board will take the required measures to resolve these issues at the earliest. Was this information helpful? |
