Directions (Q. 51 to 65): Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below it. Certain words/expressions are given in bold in the passage to help you locate them while answering some of the questions. PASSAGE - Let imagination give us two travellers. Put 25 centuries between them. One traveller enters New York, 1970; halfway around the world, the other makes his way into Babylon, 600 B.C. Over 80 generations of mankind separate the two travellers, yet in our imaginary picture they share common reactions to their respective cities: awe and fascination directed to the structures that man has raised from the ground to compete with the clouds.Skyscrapers are indeed a mark of the 20th century, but today's towering buildings have worthy forebears in the ancient Middle East. Then as now, architects aspired to lead the eye of the beholder upward. The traveller to Babylon, for example, would gaze upon the High Place, the ziggurat known to history as the Tower of Babel. Perhaps a passerby would tell the visitor of King I Nebuchadnezzar's inscription high in the Tower. "I prepared to place the summit in position so that it might compete with Heaven..." To Babylonians and other peoples of the Fèrtile Crescent, the ziggurats were material links betweenthe earth and the heavens -- between the known and the unknown. At least one ziggurat. serving as the sanctuary of the local god. was built in each city. It stood apart from the temple, much as the campanile stands apart from Italian churches or minarets from mosques.At the base was a rectangular hill of sunbaked brick. A spiral-shaped tower lifted itself from the base, with each story a different colour. Ordinary citizens did not enter the sanctuary, but priests ascended on an outside ramp formed by the spiral. Atop the lower the priests made celestial observations and with their astrology, counselled the lovelorn and recommended the best days for doing business. The towers also served as meteorological stations from which weather predictions were issued.Curiously enough, the Babylonians persisted in building with clay when they were well aware that Fired bricks were much more durablo. Thus it was necessary for monarchs repeatedly to repair the structure. When Nebuchadnezzar undertook the Tower of Babel's most famous face lifting, mentioned in the Bible, the structure was almost a thousand years old and had already undergone previous refurnishings. Completed, the Tower stood 297 feet high, just three feet short of the Statue of Liberty. The Tower of Babel Was, however, a relati e latecomer to the ranks of ancient skyscrapers. Let us go back yet another 2,400 years—to about 3000 B C.—to the age when the Great Pyramid of Gizeh was built in Egypt. The Egyptians, too. were stargazers, and with astrological calculations that were phenomenally accurate, the Pharaoh caused the pyramid to rise with its sides facing exactly North, South. East and West. : ANCIENT (Choose the word or group of words which is most OPPOSITE IN MEANING of the word given in capital.) |
| A. | Extreme |
| B. | Olden |
| C. | Future |
