AP collegedunia@.20 Read the paragraph given below and answer the question that follows:
‘Turkle describes the computer as an evocative object, one that raises new questions regarding our
common sense of the distinction between artefacts and intelligent others. Her studies include an
‘examination of the impact of computer-based artefacts on children’s conceptions of the difference
between categories such as “alive” versus “not alive” and “machine” versus “person.” In dealing
with the questions that computer-based objects evoke, children make clear that the differentiation
(of physical from psychological entities, which as adults we largely take for granted, is the end
product of a process of establishing the relationship between the observable behaviour ofa thing
and its underlying nature. Children have a tendency, for example, to attribute life to physical abjects
fon the basis of behaviours such as autonomous motion or reactivity, though they reserve humanity
for entities evidencing such things as emotion, speech, and apparent thought or purposefulness.
Turkle's observation with respect to computational artefacts is that children ascribe to them an.
Imostaliveness” and a psychology, while maintaining their distinctness from human beings: a view
that, as Turkle points out, is remarkable among other things for its correspondence to the views held
by those who are the artefacts’ designers,
Which of the following statements is/are TRUE of the paragraph above?
|A. Turkle argues that children get confused when encountering computational artefacts and
mistake them as human-like
8, Turkle argues that children are able to differentiate between physical and psychological
entities by establishing relationship between how a thing behaves and its nature
Turkle concludes that children and adults react and categorise computer-based artefacts in a
similar manner
. Turkle finally concludes that children have a hard time understanding computer artefacts
whereas adults can understand these artefacts far more easily

1.1 Sketching. (30 minutes ~ 60 marks)
Prof. Shastri was checking maths papers when she gota call from her husband. Mr. Shastri was upset.
that she forgot the diet lunch box that he had specially prepared for her. He was also annoyed that
she left the dining table in a mess with all her papers and books piled up. He further accused her of
cheating on her diet by eating canteen Pakodas and Aloo Parathas for lunch. Prof. Shastri tried to
pacify him by saying that she had been working since morning as she needed to finish checking
papers and writing her research proposal by 5 pm that evening and that she even had a headache
from skipping lunch. Mr. Shastri was not convinced and reminded her that she hadn't even read the
diet book he had sent and was probably using It as a paper weight in her office. He concluded that
she wasn’t serious about her health and proceeded to declare that he will not be cooking for her
from then on. Prof. Shastri hung up the phone and in frustration ordered her fifth cup of tea from.
the canteen and her second plate of Pakodas.
From the above description, sketch Prof, Shastri’s desk from her usual point of view.
