Correct Answer:
Explanation:
Use of English is continuously growing so it should be taught at primary levels in school and it should not be neglected at this level.
Correct Answer: In the past one year the state government has increased the frequency of trains in peak hours and has also increased the number of passengers per train.
Explanation:
Option A is a positive response to the situation. Hence, it weaknes the preception of the people.
Correct Answer: Drinking begins as a group activity and as students leave these groups, the habit of drinking is also left behind.
Explanation:
The passage only provides the information that students drink in school but seem to stop binging after they graduate. Option [A] is incorrect as there is no mention in the passage that students
are only males and that they graduate at thirty. Options [B] and [D] are incorrect because it is not mentioned so in the passage. Since the passage talks about student groups - 'fraternity and sorority members' - a logical extension would be that it is these groups that prod students to begin drinking and with the breaking of these groups, the habit is also broken. Hence, [C].
Correct Answer: Only conclusion (I) follows.
