Question

Q1. Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow:
1. Although pollution of land, sea and air have been well documented, the latest
and the least recognised version is the swelling tide of noise which is engulfing
urban as well as rural areas. This has long-term implications on the ecology.
health and productivity of a fast developing country like India.
2. Unlike other pollutants, noise lacks visibility, seldom registering on the
consciousness, except as a trifling irritant to be dismissed at will and therefore
less likely to be perceived as a threat. Available data indicate that noise does
pose a threat to health and is known to have caused a number of complications.
Declining productivity among workers in certain industries has been directly
correlated with noise levels, particularly those under constant exposure to the
michace.
3. The first-ever survey of the impact of noise on health, conducted by All India
Institute of Medical Sciences, has established that noise not only impairs the
physical and psychological functioning of the human organism but also causes
nausea, vomiting, pain, hypertension, and a lot of other complications, including
cardio-vascular complaints.
4. A study by Post Graduate School of Basic Medical Sciences, in Chennai,
confirms such conclusions. In 50 percent of industries, it was found that
workmen exposed to higher intensities of noise in occupational capacities, were
often irritated, short-tempered, and impatient and more likely to resort to
agitation and disrupt production. This was true of units in heavy industrial
pockets in and around the four metropolitan centres.
5. Recreational noise, another ugly facet, is becoming more widespread in cities
and towns. Loudspeakers are turned at full volume during marriages, festivals,
jagrans, musical programmes, particularly at night, without the least
consideration for others. Even at 50 dB, sound can awaken a person from a deep
10
slumber. As experiments have shown, loudspeakers with output from 60 to 80
dB cause a slumbering person to dilate, with increasing intake of oxygen,
resulting in palpitation. The effect is more pronounced in narrow lanes. TV sets
are played at full volume at
prime time, invariably disturbing neighbours. Noise
making seems to have become the latest status symbol, be it an election
campaign or slogan shouting or advertising ownership of a TV set.
On the basis of your reading of the above passage, make notes on it
using recognisable abbreviations. Give a suitable title.

• The key to abbreviations are:

        pollu. - pollutants

        Noi - Noise

        compli. - complications

• Noise, unlike some other contaminants, lacks awareness, rarely trying to register on the conscience except as a minor inhalation hazard to be ignored at will, making it less likely to be regarded as a threat. Evidence collected demonstrate that noise is a health hazard and has been linked to a number of health problems.
• Noise levels have been directly linked to decreased productive output among employees in certain industries, particularly those who are constantly exposed to the machine. The All India Institute of Medical Sciences conducted the first-ever survey of the effect of noise on health, which found that noise not only affects the physically and mentally functioning of the human organism, but also induces vomiting, pain, high blood pressure, and a variety of other side effects, including endurance complaints.
