Correct Answer: wasibako
Explanation:
In this language, the adjective follows the noun. From
godabim and
romzbim, you can determine that bim means kidney. From
romzbim and
romzbako, you can determine that
romz means beans. Therefore,
bako means wax. Because the adjective wax must come after the noun in this language,
wasibako is the only choice.
Correct Answer: Only assumption I is implicit
Explanation:
Clearly, A advises B to join Y because it provides good Accounts education. So, I is implicit. It is not mentioned whether B listens to A's advice or not. So, II is not implicit.

Correct Answer: research : learn
Explanation:
One explores to discover; one researches to learn.
Correct Answer: legal authorization
Explanation:
The second and third sentence combine to give support to choice a. The statement stresses that there must be a judge's approval (i.e., legal authorization) before a search can be conducted. Choices b and d are wrong because it is not enough for the police to have direct evidence or a reasonable belief?a judge must authorize the search for it to be legal. Choices c and e are not mentioned in the passage.
Correct Answer: Only argument II is strong
Explanation:
Abolishing the import duty on electronic goods shall reduce the costs of imported goods and adversely affect the sale of the domestic products, thus giving a setback to the Indian electronics industry. So, argument II holds strong. Argument I does not provide a convincing reason.

Correct Answer: placing a series of ads in the local newspaper that advertise the wide array of breads
Explanation:
This is the only option that would encourage people to think of the bakery as a shop they would visit regularly and not just on special occasions.
Correct Answer: kratafoni
Explanation:
Dafta means advise;
foni is the same as the
suffix -ment; imo is the same as the prefix mis-; lokti means conduct. Since the only word in the answer choices that hasn't been defined is krata, it is reasonable to assume that
krata means state. Therefore,
kratafoni is the only choice that could mean statement.
