Which of the following musical instruments is a reed instrument?
Correct Answerसही उत्तर
A. ShehnaiA. शहनाई
Explanationव्याख्या
The correct answer is Shehnai.
According to the source, Shehnai is the reed instrument among the four options given.
The book explains a reed as a thin strip of material that vibrates to produce sound on a musical instrument.
It further states that most woodwind-instrument reeds are made from Arundo donax or synthetic material.
Therefore this question tests not only recognition of the Shehnai but also the basic mechanism of a reed.
The important source-supported facts are: Shehnai — reed instrument; reed — thin vibrating strip used to produce sound; most woodwind reeds — Arundo donax or synthetic material.
Manjira, Tabla and Bansuri are distractors in the original PYQ.
The source does not provide detailed classifications or construction descriptions of those three alternatives in this explanation, so such details should not be inserted as if they came from the book.
Students should pay attention to the technical term 'reed', because questions on musical instruments can be framed according to sound-producing mechanism rather than only region or performer.
This differentiates the present question from many nearby PYQs that ask state-instrument associations.
The scientific principle provided by the source is vibration: the thin reed vibrates and produces sound.
The material information, Arundo donax or synthetic material, is an additional fact worth retaining for a more difficult question.
Quick revision: Shehnai — Reed Instrument; Reed — thin vibrating strip — sound production; woodwind reeds — generally Arundo donax or synthetic material according to the source.
Therefore option (a), Shehnai, is correct.
सही उत्तर शहनाई है। स्रोत के अनुसार दिए गए चार options में Shehnai एक reed instrument है। Book reed को material की एक thin strip के रूप में explain करती है जो musical instrument पर vibrate करके sound produce करती है। Source आगे बताती है कि अधिकांश woodwind instrument reeds Arundo donax या synthetic material से बनाए जाते हैं। इसलिए यह question केवल Shehnai की पहचान नहीं पूछता, बल्कि reed के basic sound-producing mechanism को भी समझाता है। Important source-supported facts हैं: Shehnai — Reed Instrument; Reed — Thin Strip जो Vibrate करके Sound Produce करती है; Most Woodwind Reeds — Arundo donax या Synthetic Material। Manjira, Tabla और Bansuri original PYQ में distractors हैं। Source इस explanation में इन तीन alternatives का detailed classification या construction नहीं देती, इसलिए ऐसी outside details को book-derived facts के रूप में नहीं जोड़ा गया है। Students को 'reed' technical term पर ध्यान देना चाहिए क्योंकि musical instruments पर questions state या artist के अलावा sound-producing mechanism से भी पूछे जा सकते हैं। Source द्वारा दिया scientific principle vibration है—thin reed vibrate करती है और sound produce होता है। Arundo donax वाला material fact tougher question के लिए additional useful information है। Quick revision: Shehnai — Reed Instrument; Reed — Thin Vibrating Strip — Sound Production; Woodwind Reeds — Arundo donax/Synthetic Material। इसलिए विकल्प (a), शहनाई, सही उत्तर है।
