1In modern Urdu prose terminology, what does 'afsana' (افسانہ) primarily mean?
A.A folk musical raga only
B.A short story
C.Only a Sanskrit epic
D.A punctuation mark
Explanation: Afsana is the standard Urdu term for a short story — concentrated fictional prose with limited characters and a focused incident or theme. Class 12 Urdu Literature regularly distinguishes afsana from novel (novel/naval) and essay (mazmun).
2What is the primary literary meaning of 'mazmun' (مضمون) in Urdu composition?
A.Only a ghazal couplet
B.An essay or expository prose piece
C.A dance form
D.A type of postposition
Explanation: Mazmun denotes an essay — structured expository or reflective prose developing a topic with introduction, body, and conclusion. RBSE literature and composition sections test mazmun as a core writing form.
3Which form best describes a long fictional prose narrative with complex plot and character development in Urdu?
A.Rubai only
B.Novel (ناول)
C.Only a proverb (kahawat)
D.Only a meter name
Explanation: The novel (naval/novel) is extended fictional prose with multi-episode plot, character arcs, and social setting. It contrasts with the compact afsana (short story).
4In analyzing an Urdu short story, what is the 'theme'?
A.Only the page number
B.The central idea or underlying message of the narrative
C.Only the printer’s font
D.Only the author’s signature
Explanation: Theme is the controlling idea or insight the story explores (e.g., social injustice, partition trauma, gender norms). It is distinct from plot (events) and setting (time/place).
5What does 'plot' refer to in prose fiction analysis?
A.Only the dictionary meaning of one word
B.The arranged sequence of events and conflicts in the story
C.Only the binding of the textbook
D.Only the exam hall seating chart
Explanation: Plot is the ordered chain of events — exposition, rising action, climax, falling action, resolution — shaped by conflict and causality, not a random list of incidents.
6In Urdu prose study, 'character' (کردار) primarily means:
A.Only the printer’s colophon
B.A person or figure portrayed in the narrative
C.Only a type of ghazal meter
D.Only a board circular number
Explanation: Characters (kirdar) are the people (or personified figures) whose actions, speech, and motives drive the story. Analysis covers traits, development, and relationships.
7What is 'setting' in a prose narrative?
A.Only the author’s pen name
B.The time and place in which the story unfolds
C.Only the answer key code
D.Only the rhyme scheme of a ghazal
Explanation: Setting (mahal/waqt o maqam) is the temporal and spatial background — era, location, social environment — that frames the action and often shapes theme.
8Premchand (Dhanpat Rai Srivastava) is especially celebrated in Urdu-Hindi prose as a master of which mode?
A.Only Persian calligraphy manuals
B.Realistic social fiction depicting village and middle-class life
C.Only film song lyrics
D.Only sports journalism
Explanation: Premchand is the foundational modern realist of Urdu-Hindi fiction — novels and stories on rural poverty, zamindari, gender, and moral conflict (e.g., Godaan; classic Urdu afsane).
9Saadat Hasan Manto is most closely associated with which kind of Urdu prose?
A.Only school arithmetic textbooks
B.Sharp, often controversial short stories on partition, sexuality, and urban underclass life
C.Only classical marsiya writing
D.Only board syllabus circulars
Explanation: Manto’s afsane (e.g., Toba Tek Singh and related partition pieces) are famous for unflinching realism, irony, and focus on human cost of violence and social hypocrisy.
10Ismat Chughtai is especially remembered in Urdu literature for:
A.Only writing cricket scorecards
B.Bold feminist and social short fiction challenging middle-class norms
C.Only composing classical dhrupad
D.Only editing railway timetables
Explanation: Ismat Chughtai’s stories and novels explore gender, desire, and domestic power with frank psychological realism; she is a major progressive-era prose voice.
