Q1. Read the following passage carefully:
Bridge builders have the problem of holding up a load from two sides of a river or a valley. If
the gap is too wide for a single stone or wood from a single free or stretch across it, some other
ways have to be found.
One way is to build up an arch small stones maybe so arranged that they hold each other up.
They are made to press against each other by means of key stone at the top of the arch. If the gap is
large, the arch has to be very high or very flat. If it is very high, the scaffolding used to build the
arch is difficult to make. If the arch is too flat, the stones do not press against each other enough
and they drop out.
A wide gap may be bridged by several arches and these arches have to be built up from riverbed. This is not easy because it means that work has to go on in the water. Some times a wall may
be built to keep the water out. This is called a coffer dam.
One way of avoiding many arches in a bridge is to hang the bridge from, steel ropes or chains.
This is called a suspension bridge. The ropes or chains go over high towers and are fastened very
securely into the ground.
All this work needs the skill of engineers and scientists. They have to find what the rocks are
like before they build the foundations, and what the force of the wind and water will be. They often
make models and use them to see what will happen.
They must know how strong the steel, stone and concrete are. In laboratories, small pieces of
these materials are crushed or pulled apart to test their strength.
Even our houses are much better built today because of the work scientists have done on
materials and ways of building.
Scientists and engineers help to make the world a safer and more comfortable place for us to
live in.
In some modern bridges like the Sydney Harbour Bridge, there is a very large steel arch from
which the bridge hangs. Another kind of bridge is the cantilever bridge. Here the weight of the
bridge itself is balanced on the opposite sides of pillar or tower. The Fourth Railway Bridge in
Scotland is of this kind.
On the basis of your reading of the above passage, complete the following sentences:
1X8 =8
1.1) Bridge builders face the problem of how to _________________.
1.2) An arch is built by ____________.
1.3) When the gap is large, the arch has to be ____________.
