Learn CBSE NCERT Solutions for Class 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12 How, When and Where Class 8 Extra Questions History Chapter 1 October 5, 2019 by Sastry CBSE How, When and Where Class 8 Extra Questions Social Science History Chapter 1 NCERT Extra Questions for Class 8 Social Science History Chapter 1 How, When and Where Question 1 Define the word ‘history’. Solution: History is ‘a record of all known past events’. Question 2 What are the events that are usually recorded in history books? Solution: The events that are usually recorded are wars, crowning of kings and events related to kingdoms and the lives of rulers. Question 3 Mention a few other events, which if recorded, will make history more interesting to everyone. Solution: Historians could write about the cultural changes in society, about how people travelled and exchanged news in the olden days and about the livelihood of people in the past. Question 4 Who created the first map of India? Solution: Major James Rennel an English geographer, historian and pioneer of oceanography prepared the first Map of India. He was directed by Major-General Sir Robert Clive to prepare the map. Question 5 What do we mean by ‘time-span’ in connection with historical events? Solution: When a specific date cannot be fixed for an event in the past and only an approximate period can be fixed this period of time is called the time-span. When we talk about changes that took place in certain social practices specific dates cannot be fixed only a time-span can be mentioned, like ‘ people in India gave up the practice of sati during the late 19thcentury’. Question 6 What did British historians in India write about? Solution: British historians in India wrote about the Governor Generals and Viceroys who ruled India. Their History books contained the activities, policies and achievements of the Governor Generals and nothing more. All the recorded events with specific dates were linked to the lives of these Governor Generals. Question 7 Why is it important to have dates or time frames while writing History? Solution: We need dates and time-spans to divide the history book into chapters. It is necessary to give each chapter some consistency. Dates help us record history in a way that makes some sense and can be followed. Dates also help historians to focus on those particular events about which they are writing. Question 8 Who wrote the book ‘The History of British India’? Solution: ‘The History of British India’ was written by James Mill. James Mill was born in 1773. He was a Scottish historian, economist, political theorist, and philosopher. His greatest literary achievement was this book. Question 9 Why did James Mill divide his book, ‘The History of British India’ into the Hindu, Muslim and British Periods? Solution: According to Mill before the British came to India, Hindu and Muslim dictators ruled the country. There was religious intolerance, caste discrimination and superstitious practices in the Indian society. James Mill felt that only the British could bring enlightenment and happiness to the Indians by refining them. He felt that European culture, arts and law were necessary to uplift the downtrodden Indians. So, James Mill divided his book into 3 periods; namely the Hindu, Muslim and British; to establish his view that the period before British rule was one of darkness and British rule represented all the forces of progress and civilisation. Question 10 How were historians able to write about the last 250 years of Indian history? Solution: The historians were able to write about the last 250 years of Indian history from the official records maintained by the British Administration. Question 11 How were records preserved during the British rule? Solution: Archives and museums were established to preserve important records. Question 12 Write a brief note on the National Archives of India. Solution: The National Archives of India is the repository of non-current records of the Government of India and is holding them in trust for the use of administrators and scholars. It is an Attached Office of the Department of Culture under Ministry of Tourism & Culture. It was set up in March 1891 in Kolkata as the Imperial Record Department and subsequent to the transfer of the National Capital from Calcutta to New Delhi in 1911 it was shifted to its present building in New Delhi, in 1926. Question 13 Apart from official records what are the other sources of information that is available to historians? Solution: The other sources of information that is available to historians are, Diaries of people Accounts of pilgrims and travellers Autobiographies of important personalities Popular booklets and newspapers Books and letters written by Leaders, reformers, poets and novelists Extra Questions for Class 8 Social Science Filed Under: CBSE Factoring CalculatorTOP Universities in IndiaTOP Engineering Colleges in IndiaTOP Pharmacy Colleges in IndiaCoding for KidsMath Riddles for Kids with AnswersGeneral Knowledge for KidsGeneral KnowledgeScholarships for StudentsNSP - National Scholarip PortalClass 12 Maths NCERT SolutionsClass 11 Maths NCERT SolutionsNCERT Solutions for Class 10 MathsNCERT Solutions for Class 9 MathsNCERT Solutions for Class 8 MathsNCERT Solutions for Class 7 MathsNCERT Solutions for Class 6 MathsNCERT Solutions for Class 6 ScienceNCERT Solutions for Class 7 ScienceNCERT Solutions for Class 8 ScienceNCERT Solutions for Class 9 ScienceNCERT Solutions for Class 10 ScienceNCERT Solutions for Class 11 PhysicsNCERT Solutions for Class 11 ChemistryNCERT Solutions for Class 12 PhysicsNCERT Solutions for Class 12 Chemistry NCERT Solutions for Class 10 Science Chapter 1NCERT Solutions for Class 10 Science Chapter 2Metals and Nonmetals Class 10carbon and its compounds class 10Periodic Classification of Elements Class 10Life Process Class 10NCERT Solutions for Class 10 Science Chapter 7NCERT Solutions for Class 10 Science Chapter 8NCERT Solutions for Class 10 Science Chapter 9NCERT Solutions for Class 10 Science Chapter 10NCERT Solutions for Class 10 Science Chapter 11NCERT Solutions for Class 10 Science Chapter 12NCERT Solutions for Class 10 Science Chapter 13NCERT Solutions for Class 10 Science Chapter 14NCERT Solutions for Class 10 Science Chapter 15NCERT Solutions for Class 10 Science Chapter 16 FREE RESOURCES RD Sharma Class 12 SolutionsRD Sharma Class 11RD Sharma Class 10RD Sharma Class 9RD Sharma Class 8RD Sharma Class 7CBSE Previous Year Question Papers Class 12CBSE Previous Year Question Papers Class 10NCERT BooksMaths FormulasCBSE Sample PapersVedic Maths NCERT SOLUTIONS NCERT Solutions for Class 10NCERT Solutions for Class 9NCERT Solutions for Class 8NCERT Solutions for Class 7NCERT Solutions for Class 6NCERT Solutions for Class 5NCERT Solutions for Class 4NCERT Solutions for Class 3NCERT Solutions for Class 2NCERT Solutions for Class 1 QUICK RESOURCES English GrammarHindi GrammarTextbook SolutionsMaths NCERT SolutionsScience NCERT SolutionsSocial Science NCERT SolutionsEnglish SolutionsHindi NCERT SolutionsNCERT Exemplar ProblemsEngineering Entrance ExamsLike us on FacebookFollow us on TwitterWatch Youtube VideosNCERT Solutions App

It means Indus Valley Civilization

भारत का इतिहास सिंधु घाटी सभ्यता से प्रारंभ होता है जिसे हम हड़प्पा सभ्यता के नाम से भी जानते हैं।
यह सभ्यता लगभग 2500 ईस्वी पूर्व दक्षिण एशिया के पश्चिमी भाग मैं फैली हुई थी,जो कि वर्तमान में पाकिस्तान तथा पश्चिमी भारत के नाम से जाना जाता है।
सिंधु घाटी सभ्यता मिस्र,मेसोपोटामिया,भारत और चीन की चार सबसे बड़ी प्राचीन नगरीय सभ्यताओं से भी अधिक उन्नत थी।
1920 में, भारतीय पुरातत्त्व विभाग द्वारा किये गए सिंधु घाटी के उत्खनन से प्राप्त अवशेषों से हड़प्पा तथा मोहनजोदडो जैसे दो प्राचीन नगरों की खोज हुई।
भारतीय पुरातत्त्व विभाग के तत्कालीन डायरेक्टर जनरल जॉन मार्शल ने सन 1924 में सिंधु घाटी में एक नई सभ्यता की खोज की घोषणा की।

Gaurav Seth 5 years, 2 months ago

Dear Rosy,

Hope this letter finds you in good health. I am so excited to inform you about my plan of watching a movie together. Let me give you some details of the movie so that you can also understand why I am so enthusiastic about it.

The name of the film is "The Return of the King" which is the third film of the epic fantasy adventure series directed by Peter Jackson. Besides the exciting story line, the most appealing fact of the movie is that many scenes have been captured in New Zealand and being kiwis, both of us will definitely enjoy the mesmerizing scenic beauty of our country. While viewing the trailer, I could even identify some of the places which are very near to our hometown.

I advise you not to worry about the tickets. As a member of MovieBuzz, I will get online tickets at discounted price. Let me know if the Friday 7 pm show at George Street, suits you. I am happy to pick you up from your office and drop you at your home after the show.

Hope to hear from you soon.

Your friend,
Rims

1. If you subtract ½ from a number and multiply the result by ½, you get 1/8 what is the number?

Solution:

Let the number be x.

According to the question,

(x – 1/2) × ½ = 1/8

x/2 – ¼ = 1/8

x/2 = 1/8 + ¼

x/2 = 1/8 + 2/8

x/2 = (1+ 2)/8

x/2 = 3/8

x = (3/8) × 2

x = ¾

2. The perimeter of a rectangular swimming pool is 154 m. Its length is 2 m more than twice its breadth. What are the length and the breadth of the pool?

Solution:

Given that,

Perimeter of rectangular swimming pool = 154 m Let the breadth of rectangle be = x

According to the question,

Length of the rectangle = 2x + 2 We know that,

Perimeter = 2(length + breadth)

⇒ 2(2x + 2 + x) = 154 m

⇒ 2(3x + 2) = 154

⇒ 3x +2 = 154/2

⇒ 3x = 77 – 2

⇒ 3x = 75

⇒ x = 75/3

⇒ x = 25 m

Therefore, Breadth = x = 25 cm

Length = 2x + 2

= (2 × 25) + 2

= 50 + 2

= 52 m

3. The base of an isosceles triangle is 4/3 cm. The perimeter of the triangle is cm. What is the length of either of the remaining equal sides?

Solution:

Base of isosceles triangle = 4/3 cm

Perimeter of triangle =
image cm = 62/15

Let the length of equal sides of triangle be x.

According to the question,

4/3 + x + x = 62/15 cm

⇒ 2x = (62/15 – 4/3) cm

⇒ 2x = (62 – 20)/15 cm

⇒ 2x = 42/15 cm

⇒ x = (42/30) × (½)

⇒ x = 42/30 cm

⇒ x = 7/5 cm

The length of either of the remaining equal sides are 7/5 cm.
