Q1-3. Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below it:-Recently, a newspaper article mourned the total disappearance of the common house sparrow.
This was a comment on the citys perceptible move towards edging out the flora and fauna of the city. In
the rapid urbanization, multi-storied apartments grew and large scale felling of trees became necessary.
Last week, however, seven pairs of these sparrows were spotted in a suburb. Possibly the greenery of
this place has created a new habitat for these birds which like their proximity to human beings, and have
made a comeback. A systematic development of trees and shrubs all over the city could woo the
absentee house sparrow to our midst.
