Q.1
A balaclava, also known as a balaclava helmet , is a form of headgear designed to expose only part
of the face, especially the eyes. Versions with a full face opening may be rolled into a hat to cover
the crown of the head or folded down as a collar around the neck.
Traditional balaclavas were knitted from wool. Modern versions are also made
from silk, cotton, polypropylene, neoprene, acrylic, or polar fleece.
This type of headgear was known in the 19th century as Templar cap.
During the Crimean War in 1854, handmade balaclavas were sent over to the British troops to help
protect them from the bitter cold weather. British troops required this aid, as their own supplies
(warm clothing, weatherproof quarters, and food) never arrived in time.
How do we commonly know this headgear in India, which is used by troops on Himalayan duty?

Q.2
Edgar Allan Poe published a short story which follows Prince Prospero's attempts to avoid a

enters and makes his way through each of the rooms. Prospero dies after confronting this stranger,
whose costume proves to contain nothing tangible inside it; the guests also die in turn.

A Chinese legend talks about how a school of red Koi/Carp fishes were swimming upstream of the
Yellow River in China. They fought against the upstream but once they saw a waterfall ahead, many
of the Koi fishes turned back. The remaining koi fishes leaped and splashed their way trying to reach
the top of the waterfall. Their efforts caught the attention of demons, who mocked their efforts and
heightened the waterfall out of malice. After hundred years of splashing, one fish reached the top of
the waterfall. The Gods recognized the Koi for its perseverance and turned it into a blue dragon, the
image of power and strength.

  • 62. Q.1 A balaclava, also known as a balaclava helmet , is a form of headgear designed to expose only part of the face, especially the eyes. Versions with a full face opening may be rolled into a hat to cover the crown of the head or folded down as a collar around the neck. Traditional balaclavas were knitted from wool. Modern versions are also made from silk, cotton, polypropylene, neoprene, acrylic, or polar fleece. This type of headgear was known in the 19th century as Templar cap. During the Crimean War in 1854, handmade balaclavas were sent over to the British troops to help protect them from the bitter cold weather.
