5. Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow:

1. Varieties of birds migrate or travel from one region to another depending on the
availability of food, habitat and climatic conditions. The World Migratory Bird
Day is now celebrated to spread awareness about threats faced by migratory birds.
2. In order to escape the severe winter of Northern and Central Asia, several
migratory birds visit the Indian Subcontinent during the winter. Here, they find
optimal conditions of food and climate for their survival. Studies reveal that the
quality of habitat and human disturbances along their migratory routes are the
deciding factors of the number of migratory birds that come to a place.
3. Loss of habitat due to human encroachment, like settlement, grazing and
agriculture is regarded as the main reason for this decline. Scientists have
observed that the breeding habitats of these birds are becoming fragmented and
the tropical grounds surrounding the habitats are being destroyed.
4. According to ornithologist and professor at the Jawaharlal Nehru University,
Surya Prakash, the numbers per species of migratory birds have drastically gone
down because of the loss of habitat, specially wetlands and aquatic ecosystems,
due to commercial use of land and other anthropogenic factors.
5. Delay in rainfall also leads to a delay in the arrival of migratory birds. Rains
obstruct their flight and cause low visibility. Another cause of decline in migration
to India is the large scale hunting of these birds. Birds like falcons are targets for
many illegal hunters. In addition to this, availability of food is also becoming
scarce and various water bodies have dried up, thus robbing these birds of their
habitat. High voltage power lines are another threat to the lives of these birds as
they can get caught in between the lines.
(i) Answer the following questions:
(a) Why is The World Migratory Bird Day celebrated? 1
(b) Write any two factors that can lead to the delay in the arrival of migratory
birds. 2

(c) In Paragraph-2, which of the following is a synonym of the word ‘optimal’?
i. quality ii. ideal
iii. low iv. fresh

6. Read the poem carefully and answer the following questions:
To Blossoms
Fair pledges of a fruitful tree,
Why do ye fall so fast?
Your date is not so past,
But you may stay yet here awhile
To blush and gently smile,
And go at last.
What, were ye born to be
An hour or half's delight,
And so to bid good-night?
'Twas pity Nature brought ye forth
Merely to show your worth,
And lose you quite.
But you are lovely leaves, where we
May read how soon things have
Their end, though ne'er so brave:
And after they have shown their pride
Like you, awhile, they glide
Into the grave. (Robert Herrick)

(i) And after they have shown their pride
Like you, awhile, they glide into the grave. In the given lines, the word ‘grave’
