(D) Jewellery, ornaments, jewellery box – gems
Solution
Hint : Quilt, bed sheet and cloth are things that humans wear and use every day for purpose which includes soft materials, utensils, frames and furniture that require hard materials. Crockery, vase and decorative ornaments require shiny materials. Jewellery, ornaments and jewellery boxes require shiny and expensive materials.
Complete Step By Step Answer:
Quilts are three covered layers used like blankets, bed-sheets are sheets that we cover the bed with and cloth is something that we wear, thus these things require material which is soft and does not affect our skin. Therefore they are often made out of cotton.
Utensils are vessels in which we eat and cook our food, frames are supports in which we put something sensitive to hang, furniture is basically for storage of small and big things. Thus the requirement of material for these kinds of things is that it should be hard and durable. Wood can be used as furniture and frame at a certain time, but it cannot be used as a utensil.
Crockery are fancy vessels for tea or coffee, vase is mostly used to put flowers in it and decorative articles are just used as decorative pieces. Thus, these kinds of things require material which is glossy. Mostly ceramic of different kinds and glasses are used to make these things. Clay cannot be used to make these things as it cannot be as attractive as ceramic and coloured glasses.
Jewellery and ornaments are made from costly metals like gold and silver which are lustrous and can be shaped into something wearable. Jewellery box is used to store the jewellery and it is made out of either metal or wood, although gems can be studded in these things, but it cannot be used to make these things.
The correct answer to this question is option A. Quilts, bed-sheets and clothes are often made out of cotton.
Note :
Knowledge of materials and the objects is necessary to figure out the correct match. Also, if one of the things in the option is satisfied with the material given next to it, it does not necessarily mean that it is the correct option. Other objects might not be able to be made from that material.
