Q. Read the following paragraph and complete the table.

            Water is the most abundant natural resource on our earth. However, over 97% of it is salty Seawater. Rivers, lakes, streams and groundwater are the water sources. It holds less than 1% of all fresh water, which has to be provided for the whole world population. Water is a finite resource which cannot be increased nor decreased. The overall amount of water on the Earth has remained the same for millions of years. About 1.2 billion people around the world do not have safe drinking water. Many of them live in dry regions where the water supply is scarce and rainfall is rare and unreliable. Water is a shared resource. Farmers need it for irrigation to produce food; industries need it for the production of goods and electricity; common people need it daily for drinking, cooking and bathing.

            Most of the world's water is used for growing crops. Agriculture accounts for about 70% of all fresh water use. Industry uses 22% and households about 8%. When water is used wastefully, there is little left for nature. Half of all wetlands have disappeared over the last century. Water cycle completes from evaporation, condensation, precipitation and groundwater recharge.

Q. Read the following paragraph and complete the point wise notes.

            Headaches are a common complaint. According to the World Health Organization, most people will experience a headache from time to time. Headache is an almost universal human experience. While they can be sometimes painful and debilitating, the majority can be treated with simple painkillers and will go away within several hours. However, repeated attacks or certain type of headache could be a sign of something more serious.

           There are two main types of headaches: Primary and Secondary. Primary headaches include tension type, migraine and cluster headaches. They are not caused by other underlying medical problems. They are caused due to stress, inadequate sleep and poor posture. Secondary headaches are caused by other medical conditions such as infection or increased pressure in the skull due to a tumor, head-injury, sinus or medication-overuse headaches.

            For treating headaches, ice-packs are amongst the most effective non-drug treatments. Apply it to the painful area; try placing it on the back of the neck, forehead and temples. It gives relaxation and increase of blood-flow. Rest or nap can give the brain an opportunity to get back to normal. For secondary headaches medical treatment is essential.
