KINDLY LOOK PROPERLY. (Question: 201661.0 )

NOWHERE IN THE PASSAGE IT HAS BEEN MENTIONED THAT THE CITY DEVELOPERS MADE A SYSTEMATIC PLAN TO OUST THAT LITTLE BIRD FROM THE CITY.

Question:
DIRECTIONS: You have a brief passage with 5 questions each.  Read the passages carefully and choose the best answer to each question out of the four alternatives.


Recently, a newspaper article mourned the total disappearance of the common house sparrow. This was a comment on the perceptible move towards edging out the flora and fauna of the city. In the rapid urbanisation, multi-storeyed apartments grew and large-scale felling of trees became necessary. Last week, however, seven pairs of these sparrows were spotted in a suburb.Possibly the greenery of this place has created a new habitat for these birds, which have liked their proximity to human beings, and have made a comeback. A systematic development of trees and shrubs all over the city could woo the absentee house sparrow to our midst.
According to the passage, the house sparrows –
Options:
A) have already become an endangered species
B) have been driven out of the cities
C) like to live in small towns
D) do not like to live in areas that do not have greenery
Solution:
Ans:(b) Have been driven out of the cities


The sentence 'This was a comment on the perceptible move towards edging out the flora and fauna of the city' indicates that the house sparrows have been driven out of the cities.

The intention was only to urbanize. So, we cannot say that sparrows have been "systematically "driven out. On the other hand, option 4 is clearly true - as greenery disappeared, sparrows left and when greenery is back, sparrows are back.

Dear Student,

According to the passage, due to rapid urbanization, construction of multi-storeyed apartments and cutting of trees, the natural habitat of sparrows has been snatched from them. So, the correct answer is option B.
