Question: Write any two steps followed while creating the glaciers.

 

The correct answer is –

According to the given passage, there are a few basic steps followed while creating artificial glaciers:
  1. Diverting river or stream water at high altitude to a shaded area of the hill facing north, where the winter sun is blocked by a ridge or mountain range.
  2. Making the diverted water flow on sloping hills facing distribution channels at the start of winter, i.e., in November.
These steps are followed to ensure the formation of a cascade of ice along the slope over a period of 3-4 months, resulting in a large accumulation of ice, which is referred to as an 'artificial glacier.'
