  • Question 2/10
    1 / -0.25

    The question below is followed by two statements numbered I and II. You have to decide whether the data provided in the statements are sufficient to answer the question. Read both the statements and give answer.

    What is the code for “Flower”?

    I. 'Beautiful tiger' is coded as '5H 9B', 'Ultra sonic' is coded as '5U 5O' and 'Clear environment' is coded as '11W 5F'.

    II. 'Posh area' is coded as '15G 18Z', 'Leopard attack' is coded as '20J 5C' and 'Imagine flower' is coded as '12Q 13D'.

    Solutions

    From statement I:

    Logic:

    Number = Number of the letters in the word

    Letter = 3rd letter + 1

    Code for flower:

    Number à Number of letters in ‘Flower’ = 6

    Letter à O + 1 = P

    Code = 6P

    So, statement I alone is sufficient.

    From statement II:

    Logic:

    Number = Position of second letter in the alphabet series

    Letter = Last letter – 1

    Code for flower:

    Number à Position of L = 12

    Letter à R – 1 = Q

    Code = 12Q

    So, statement II alone is sufficient.

    From Statement I and II:

    Clearly, the question is answered. Thus, statement I and II together are sufficient.

     

  • Question 5/10
    1 / -0.25

    The question given below is followed by two statements numbered I and II. You have to decide whether the data provided in the statements sufficient to answer the question

    The conclusion C ≥ E is definitely followed by which of the following statements?

    I: G < F ≤ E; W ≥ C = Y > G

    II: E ≥ Y > A; L = E; K ≤ C ≥ L

    Solutions

    Statement I: W ≥ C = Y > G < F ≤ E

    So, C ≥ E does not follow.
    The statement I cannot answer the question.

    Statement II: C ≥ L = E ≥ Y > A

    So, C ≥ E follows.
    The statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question.

     

  • Question 6/10
    1 / -0.25

    A statement is given followed by three inferences numbered I, II, and III. Consider the statement to be true even if it is at variance with commonly known facts. You have to decide which of the inferences, if any, follow from the given statement.

    Statement: 

    Andhra Pradesh is the only state that has initiated work to include environmental guidelines in building by-laws so that every construction project meets environmental standards.

    Inferences:

    I. No construction projects in other states meet the environmental standards.

    II. Andhra Pradesh was forced to take this step because of increasing pollution due to illegal construction.

    III. Environmental guidelines are not followed in the majority of cases when building houses.

    Solutions

    Only inference III follows. The given statement says that Andhra Pradesh is the only state wherein environmental guidelines are followed while constructing buildings. So, we can clearly infer that in majority of the cases, these guidelines are not followed while building houses.
    Inference I does not follow because of the use of the definitive ‘no’, which cannot be concluded from what is given. Inference II does not follow because the statement does not give a reason as to why Andhra Pradesh decided to follow environmental guidelines while constructing buildings. Therefore, option C is the correct answer.

    The effort involved in countering a scary situation produces adrenaline accompanied by an acceleration of the heartbeat. Since the body produces adrenaline to counter fear, a machine that can detect the amount of adrenaline produced can be an effective way of determining how scared someone is.

    Which one of the following statements, if true, most seriously weakens the argument?

    I. Measurement of adrenaline means measuring its every component which is not possible by the machines available today and manually the amount of time required to do the same is too much for the effect to sustain.

    II. People are often unaware that their body is producing adrenaline as a response to counter the fear they experience in a scary situation.

    III. The body does not necessarily produce enough adrenaline in situations invoking fear as compared to the amount it does in other stressful situations.

    IV. For people who are not actually scared, the stress of being tested by machines can produce release adrenaline identical in amounts similar to that in situations where one is scared.

    V. The use of a machine involves testing various components of adrenaline and reporting the exact amount of each component produced, which when matched with expected levels provide information about the amount of fear that can be handled by a person.

    Solutions

    The passage revolves around the idea that when people are scared, their bodies produce adrenaline, which could be measured by a machine, thus providing an insight into the relationship between the degree of fear experienced by someone and amount of adrenaline produced. Any statement which suggests that an equal amount of adrenaline could be produced in other situations as well will weaken the given argument as in this case, the machine will show that a person is scared when that might not be the case.
    The same context has been implied in D making it the correct option.

  • Question 9/10
    1 / -0.25

    Study the following information carefully and answer the question given below:

    Statement:

    The government’s efforts to curtail drug abuse is unable to achieve any result, mainly because the people who are involved in this are closely related to high profile people in the society.

    Which of the following is not in-line with the given statement?

    I. The government should provide more support to the enforcement authority in bringing such people to books.

    II. The government should ask the drug peddlers to not to sell drugs to high-profile people.

    III. The government should declare the consumption of drugs as illegal.

    Solutions

    The statement brings out the reasons behind the government’s failure to curtail drug menace.
    As the people involved are high profile people, it is possible that the efforts of the enforcement authority do not run smoothly. Hence, I states that the government should increase its support to the enforcement authority. This would help them to perform their duty properly. Hence, I is in-line statement.
    Statement II is meaningless as the government does not support selling of drugs at all.
    Statement III is based on the assumption that drug abuse is not declared illegal. Hence, III is not-in-line statement.
