More questions
Correct Answer: Only assumption I is implicit
Explanation:
The statement mentions that if the people ask about the tailor, your suit is good. This means that people ask only in the situation when the thing is good. So, I is implicit. The criteria of an excellent suit is not mentioned. So, II is not implicit.
Correct Answer: student
Explanation:
Without students, a school cannot exist; therefore, students are the essential part of schools. The other choices may be related, but they are not essential.
Correct Answer: Neither I nor II follows
Explanation:
The statement mentions the problem of increased migration of children to cities. But the ways to deal with the problem cannot be deduced from it. So, neither I nor II follows.
Correct Answer: Both the statements I and II are effects of some common cause
Explanation:
Evacuating low-lying areas and rushing in relief to the affected areas clearly indicates that floods have occurred in the area.
Correct Answer: Statement II is the cause and statement I is its effect
Explanation:
Clearly, the people's mass protest against the police might have instigated the latter to indulge in lathi-charge to disperse the mob.
Correct Answer: employees social values have changed over the past ten years.
Explanation:
A change in employee social values over the past ten years is implied in the whole paragraph, but particularly in the first sentence. Choice a is incorrect because the loyalty of the managers to their corporations is never discussed. There is no support for choice b. In choice d, perhaps career advancement is less important than it once was, but the paragraph does not indicate that advancement is unimportant to managers. Choice e is an opinion that is not supported.
Correct Answer: pixnarth
Explanation:
Gorbl means fan;
flur means belt;
pixn means ceiling;
arth means tile; and
tusl means roof. Therefore,
pixnarth is the correct choice.
Correct Answer: Valerie recently lost her job and, for the last three months, has neglected to pay her landlord the monthly rent they agreed upon in writing when she moved into her apartment eight months ago.
Explanation:
Valerie signed a legally binding document that requires her to pay a monthly rent for her apartment and she has failed to do this for the last three months. Therefore, she has violated her apartment lease.
Correct Answer: At least one of the shows that was cancelled was an hour-long drama.
Explanation:
If there were seven shows left and five were sitcoms, this means that only two of the shows could possibly be dramas. Choices a and b may be true, but there is no evidence to indicate this as fact. The fact that all of the sitcoms remained does not necessarily mean that viewers prefer sitcoms (choice d).
Correct Answer: Marty's serves delicious, hearty meals in a charming setting reminiscent of a baseball clubhouse in honor of the owner,Marty Lester, a former major league baseball all-star.
Explanation:
Since Eileen's husband does not enjoy fancy restaurants, choices a and c can be ruled out. Choice b, although casual, doesn't sound as though it would be the kind of special and memorable evening that Eileen is looking for. Choice d, which is owned by a former baseball star and is described as "charming" and "reminiscent of a baseball clubhouse", sounds perfect for Eileen's husband, who is described as a baseball fan and a man with simple tastes.
