Q.36 Read the following information carefully
and answer the given questions.
Blood bank is an organization that collects,
stores, processes, and transfuses blood. During
World War I it was demonstrated that stored
blood could safely be used, allowing for the
development of the first blood bank in 1932.
Before the first blood banks came into operation,
a physician determined the blood types of the
patient’s relatives and friends until the proper
type was found, performed the cross-match, bled
the donor, and gave the transfusion to the
patient. In the 1940s the discovery of many
blood types and of several cross-matching
techniques led to the rapid development of blood
banking as a specialized field and to a gradual
shift of responsibility for the technical aspects
of transfusion from practicing physicians to
technicians and clinical pathologists. The
practicality of storing fresh blood and blood
components for future needs made possible such
innovations as artificial kidneys; heart-lung
pumps for open-heart surgery, and exchange
transfusions for infants with erythroblastosis
fetalis.
Whole blood is donated and stored in units of
about 450 ml (slightly less than one pint). Whole
blood can be stored only for a limited time, but
various components (e.g., red blood cells and
plasma) can be frozen and stored for a year or
longer. Therefore, most blood donations are
separated and stored as components by the
blood bank. These components include platelets
to control bleeding; concentrated red blood cells
to correct anemia; and plasma fractions, such as
fibrinogen to aid clotting, immune globulins to
prevent and treat a number of infectious
diseases, and serum albumin to augment the
blood volume in cases of shock. Thus, it is
possible to serve the varying needs of five or
more patients with a single blood donation.
Despite such replacement programs, many blood
banks face continual problems in obtaining
sufficient donations. The chronic shortage of
donors has been alleviated somewhat by the
development of apheresis, a technique by which
only a desired blood component is taken from
the donor’s blood, with the remaining fluid and
blood cells immediately transfused back into the
donor. This technique allows the collection of
large amounts
Of a particular component, such as plasma or
platelets, from a single donor.

Q.37 Based on the passage, what does

(a) Correcting anaemia.

(b) Preventing infectious disease.
(c) Aid blood clotting.
(d)Augmenting the blood volume
Q.38 What finding led to the swift growth blood
banking as a specific field?
(a) The discovery of safe and efficient storage
system.
(b) The discovery that other components of
blood can be stored for more than a year.
(C).The discovery that blood can be stored for
quite a while.
(d).The discovery of many blood types and of
several cross-matching techniques.

Q.76 Read the following passage and answer the given questions.
When I was at college I used to spend my summer vacations in Dehra,
at my grandmother’s place. I would leave the plains early in May and
return in July. Deoli was a small station about thirty miles from Dehra;
it marked the beginning of the heavy jungles of the Indian Terai. The
train would reach Deoli at about five in the morning, when the station
would be dimly lit with electric bulbs and oil lamps, and the jungle
across the railway tracks would just be visible in the faint light of
dawn. Deoli had only one platform, an office for the station master
and a waiting room. The platform boasted a tea stall, a fruit vendor,
and a few stray dogs; not much else, because the train stopped there
only ten minutes before rushing on into the forests. Why it stopped at
Deoli, I don’t know. Nothing ever happened there. Nobody got off the
train and nobody got in. There were never any coolies on the
platform. But the train would halt there a full ten minutes, and then a
bell would sound, the guard would blow his whistle, and presently
Deoli would be left behind and forgotten. I used to wonder what
happened in Deoli, behind the station walls. I always felt sorry for that
lonely little platform and for the place that nobody wanted to visit. I
decided that one day I would get off the train at Deoli, and spend the
day there, just to please the town. I was eighteen, visiting my
grandmother, and the night train stopped at Deoli. A girl came down
the platform, selling baskets. It was a cold morning and the girl had a
shawl thrown across her shoulders. Her feet were bare and her
clothes were old, but she was a young girl, walking gracefully and with
dignity. When she came to my window, she stopped. Sub questions
