CTET 8 Feb 2026 (Paper 1) - English Language 2 Answer Key by sk sachin classes

👋 हेलो दोस्तों! (Hello Future Teachers)

कैसा रहा आज का पेपर?

आज (8 फरवरी) का Paper 1 देकर जब आप हॉल से निकले होंगे, तो English Language 2 को लेकर मिक्स फीलिंग आ रही होगी।

ईमानदारी से कहूं तो आज के इंग्लिश सेक्शन ने थोड़ा सरप्राइज दिया।

खासकर वो "Big Bang" वाला पैसेज! शुरुआत में लगा कि कोई साइंस का पैसेज है, लेकिन निकला एक ड्रामेटिक सीन— धमाका, घायल लड़का, और वो बुढ़िया... काफी फिल्मी स्टोरी थी, है न? 😅

और दूसरा पैसेज "Tribes and Patriarch" वाला थोड़ा सा समाजशास्त्र (Sociology) टाइप का था।

लेकिन घबराइए मत! मैंने आप लोगों के लिए English Language II के सभी 30 प्रश्नों (Q121-150) को बहुत बारीकी से सॉल्व किया है। पेडागोजी के सवाल लॉजिकल थे, अगर आपने टैग वर्ड्स (Tag Words) का ध्यान रखा होगा, तो नंबर पक्के हैं।

🔍 आज के पेपर की हाईलाइट्स:

Passage 1 (Big Bang): इसमें 'Preposition' और 'Tense' वाले सवाल आसान थे, लेकिन 'True/False' वाले सवालों ने थोड़ा टाइम लिया होगा।
Passage 2 (Patriarch): यह सीधा-साधा था, इसमें से नंबर खींचना आसान था।
Pedagogy: इसमें Remedial Teaching, Storytelling, और Behaviorism पर अच्छे सवाल थे।
