Question

[111]. Read the following passage carefully:

Passage: "Street theatre needs no hall, ticket or curtain. A group of actors gathers at a market corner, beats a drum to draw a crowd, and performs a short play about dowry, cleanliness or the importance of voting. The audience stands in a circle, laughs, interrupts and sometimes answers the actors back, so the play changes slightly at every show. Because the performance is free and in the local language, people who never enter a theatre watch it on their way home. Street theatre's power lies in this closeness: it does not lecture from a stage but argues with the crowd, in the crowd's own place and words." According to the passage, which of the following is true?

1.
Students from China, Korea, Tibet and Persia travelled for months to study logic, medicine, astronomy and Buddhist philosophy at Nalanda.
2.
Children studied without smoky lamps, a women's group ran sewing on electric machines, and a farmer received weather and market prices on his phone.
3.
Actors gather at a market corner, beat a drum to draw a crowd, and perform short plays about dowry, cleanliness or voting.
4.
Birds from Siberia fly thousands of kilometres to Indian wetlands, navigating by Sun, stars and the Earth's magnetic field, and rest at the same lakes.
