SECTION A - READING
Salma was the only class 5 student in her school with just two candles on her birthday cake. She liked
to tell people that her younger brother was eight years old and her younger sister was five, just to see
the confused looks on their faces. They would scratch their heads and wonder how it was possible.
She would also say things like "I was three years old before I had my first birthday."
Some children would ask her what she meant. She enjoyed explaining things to them.
" I was born on 29th February 1996," she would say. "That's a leap year day. The next leap year didn't
come until 2000, so that was my first birthday." She explained that a leap year has 366 days instead
of 365 days. A leap year is any year that can be evenly divided by four.
When an actual birthday came around, it was a very important occasion . She had a birthday every
year, ofcourse, but had to do it either on 28 February or 1st March. Neither of those days felt like her
real birthday. But every four years she got to celebrate on the actual birthday. And this was one of
those years.

found in warm parts of the world.
3. FRIGID ZONE- The areas between Arctic Circle and North Pole in the Northern
Hemisphere ,and between Antarctic Circle and South Pole in the Southern Hemisphere.

with snow throughout the year.

Circle in the Northern Hemisphere , and the Tropic of Capricorn and the Antartic Circle
in the Southern Hemisphere , are called the Temperate Zones . This region has a very
mild climate-neither hot nor very cold
IX. GIVE REASON(6mks)
1. In DRC the evaporation of water due to the high temperature during the day makes
humidity very high. This causes the clouds to build up by the afternoon, and rain comes
down about 4 : pm. this happens almost every day, making the region one of the wettest
in the world.
2. The larger the area covered by a map, the more will be the errors in it. A map of your
neighbourhood can be drawn accurately, as it covers small area. But a map of India or a
map of the world will have errors because they cover very large areas.
3. The rays of the sun are direct or vertical at the equator and slanting at the poles. The
slanting rays have to heat up a larger area of the Earth’s surface than the direct rays
that fall on the Equator. Hence places near the Equator get heated more than places
near the poles.
X. ANSWER BRIEFLY(6mks)
Between 1971-1997 - Zaire

maximum heat . It is hot throughout the year . 1
2. Climate of DRC is hot throughout the year, Rapid evaporation of water leads to high
level of humidity, causes clouds to build up and heavy rain occur by afternoon .Summer
is hot and wet, the winter is cool and dry 2
3. Political Maps- Maps showing boundaries of the countries and states, and the important
cities, Known as political maps. 1
Physical Maps-Maps showing natural features of the land such as mountains, rivers and
plains known as physical maps. 1
4. Winds tend to blow in particular directions in different parts of the world. They may be
hot,cool, or full of moisture, depending on where they come from. 1
For example the monsoon winds from Indian Ocean and Arabian Sea bring rain to large
parts of India 1
5. There are four cardinal directions- north, south, east and west. Usually maps are drawn
with north at the top. 1
If north is at the top, then south is at the bottom, east is to the right and west is to the
left. 1
6. They live in camps which they occupy only for few weeks. Then they move to a new

1. a. Tropical zone
3. b. Congo
5. a. Grasslands
1. True
2. False
3. True

5. False
1. Torrid Zone
2. Temperature Zone
3. Post Office
VI. DEFINE THE FOLLOWING(5)
1. The ratio between distances on a map to the actual distance on the ground.
2. A large group of people who live inthe same area and share a common language, religion
and customs.
3. A large flat area of grassland with scattered trees, found in warm parts of the world.
4. The science of making maps
5. The amount of watervapour in the air.
VII. DRAW THE SYMBOL(5)
1. ATLAS- A book of maps
MAP- A representation of the Earth drawn on a flat surface
2. SAVANNA- A large flat area of grassland with scattered trees,
found in warm parts of the world.
3. FRIGID ZONE- The areas between Arctic Circle and North Pole in the Northern
Hemisphere ,and between Antarctic Circle and South Pole in the Southern Hemisphere.
Receive very little heat from the Sun. They are very cold and large parts are covered
with snow throughout the year.
TEMPERATE ZONE-The areas that lie between the Tropic of Cancer and the Arctic
Circle in the Northern Hemisphere , and the Tropic of Capricorn and the Antartic Circle
in the Southern Hemisphere , are called the Temperate Zones . This region has a very
mild climate-neither hot nor very cold
IX. GIVE REASON(6mks)
1. In DRC the evaporation of water due to the high temperature during the day makes
humidity very high. This causes the clouds to build up by the afternoon, and rain comes
down about 4 : pm. this happens almost every day, making the region one of the wettest
in the world.
2. The larger the area covered by a map, the more will be the errors in it. A map of your
neighbourhood can be drawn accurately, as it covers small area. But a map of India or a
map of the world will have errors because they cover very large areas.
3. The rays of the sun are direct or vertical at the equator and slanting at the poles. The
slanting rays have to heat up a larger area of the Earth’s surface than the direct rays
that fall on the Equator. Hence places near the Equator get heated more than places
near the poles.
X. ANSWER BRIEFLY(6mks)
Between 1971-1997 - Zaire
3. Elephants, Buffaloes, Gorillas and Rhinoceros.( any four
4. Hot winds from the Thar desert.
5. A shape or sign that is used to represent something.
6. Mountains- Brown
XI. ANSWER IN DETAIL(12mks)
1. The area on both sides of the equator , between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of
Capricorn , is called the Torrid zone or Tropical Zone . 1
The word torrid means extremely hot . As it lies near the equator , this zone receives
maximum heat . It is hot throughout the year . 1
2. Climate of DRC is hot throughout the year, Rapid evaporation of water leads to high
level of humidity, causes clouds to build up and heavy rain occur by afternoon .Summer
is hot and wet, the winter is cool and dry 2
3. Political Maps- Maps showing boundaries of the countries and states, and the important
cities, Known as political maps. 1
Physical Maps-Maps showing natural features of the land such as mountains, rivers and
plains known as physical maps. 1
4. Winds tend to blow in particular directions in different parts of the world. They may be
hot,cool, or full of moisture, depending on where they come from. 1
For example the monsoon winds from Indian Ocean and Arabian Sea bring rain to large
parts of India 1
5. There are four cardinal directions- north, south, east and west. Usually maps are drawn
with north at the top. 1
If north is at the top, then south is at the bottom, east is to the right and west is to the
left. 1
6. They live in camps which they occupy only for few weeks. Then they move to a new
place. ½
They get food by hunting animals and gathering plant foods.
Since the climate is hot and humid the tribal people do not wear many clothes.
But on special occasions they wear colourful costumes. ½
They enjoy singing, dancing and telling stories. ( any four points) ½
7. Chennai is in the coastal region where evaporation is high and humidity
is also high 1
whereas in Jaisalmer humidity is low due to low rate of evaporation 1
