But when you take time to look closely at the statue you will marvel at its sheer grandeur. Sculpted by Sir Thomas Brock the 11 feet high marble statue is larger than life. It brings out the personality of Queen Victoria who had been the Monarch of Great Britain from 1837 till 1901 depicting a rather proud stern person with pronounced features.In 1906 the statue was unveiled in the city by George Frederick Ernest Albert Prince of Wales and Duke of Cornwall and York making it stand in all its glory in its 111th year. Even though there is a wealth of history to the statue and it was made to appear imposing the busy Bengalureans would probably refer to it as just another landmark. As the workers are busy in discussion on the instructions given to them life continues as usual in the Park.Which of the following is false regarding the Queen Victoria statue in Bengaluru?
1.It is made of marble
2.It is 11 feet tall

Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer to each question out of the four alternatives.Eight north Indian Ocean countries namely Bangladesh India the Maldives Myanmar Oman Pakistan Sri Lanka and Thailand were asked to contribute names so that a combined list could be compiled. Each country gave eight names and a combined list of 64 names was prepared. This list is currently in use and all cyclones arising in the north Indian Ocean are named from this list with one name from each country being used in turn. Almost 38 or 39 names from the list have been used up but since many cyclones dissipate long before they hit land their names rarely figure in the papers or other media. The names that people do know about and remember are naturally those that were most destructive ones or very recent. Aila in 2009 is remembered with a shudder for the enormous destruction it caused in West Bengal and Bangladesh; Phaillin also for the damage it caused when it hit the Odisha coast in 2013. Two harmless cyclones which also might remain in peoples memory are the more recent ones of 2014 Hudhud which threatened the east coast of India and Nilofar which was expected to but did not devastate the western coast. The names in the cyclone list are usually words one associates with storms; words which mean water or wind or lightning in various national languages. Sometimes they are names of other things birds or flowers or precious stones. The name Aila contributed by the Maldives means fire the name Phaillin from Thailand means sapphire the name Hudhud from Oman is the name of a bird probably the hoopoe and the name Nilofar given by Pakistan is the Urdu name of the lotus or water lily. The eight names suggested by India and which are in the list of 64 are Agni Akaash Bijli Jal Leher Megh Sagar and Vayu meaning in that order fire sky lightning water wave cloud sea and wind. Five of these names (that is up to Leher) have been used so far.Which of the following names is a type of a precious stone?
1.Aila
2.Nilofar
3.Phaillin
4.Hudhud
