How to attempt paragraph-based questions in CBSE Class 10?
To understand and answer paragraph-based questions in your Class 10 Science papers, here are 5 steps:
Step 1
Read the question properly. How much time you have , hence time management skills plays a very crucial. With full concentration read the paragraph, so that you dont have to read it again. Hence save time in the first step
Step 2
Underline the keywords in the given paragraph which reveal important information. While reading the question, you will come across words that will give you an idea of the topic being discussed. Once you know the topic, you can quickly remember the theory and formulae from that topic.
Step 3
Next, analyse the questions. Here, think clearly about what is being asked. Your exam evaluator does not want you to write everything you know about the topic. So, find out what is precisely expected in the answer.
Step 4
Now, write the data points at one side of paper and analyse it. Think of which formula or theoretical concept identified in Step 2 can be applied to answer the question.
Step 5
Use the data gathered from the given paragraph to apply the identified concept and write the relevant answer for the given questions.
