More questions
Correct Answer: Kishan and Chander were guilty.
Correct Answer: Only II is strong
Explanation:
Clearly, capability is an essential criteria for a profession and reservation cannot ensure capable workers. So, neither I nor III holds strong. However, making one caste more privileged than the other through reservations would hinder the objectives of a classless society. So, argument II holds strong.
Correct Answer: Both I and II are implicit
Explanation:
Since both I and II follow from the statement, so both are implicit.
Correct Answer: flee
Explanation:
Dodge, duck, and avoid are all synonyms meaning evade. Flee means to run away from.
Correct Answer: Only argument I is strong
Explanation:
Clearly, mechanization would speed up the work and increase the production. So, argument I is strong enough. Argument II is vague because mechanization will only eliminate wasteful employment, not create unemployment.
Correct Answer: 11 5
Explanation:
This is an alternating subtraction series with the interpolation of a random number, 5, as every third number. In the subtraction series, 3 is subtracted, then 4, then 3, and so on.
Correct Answer: 3
Explanation:
This is a multiplication series; each number is 3 times the previous number.
Correct Answer: Both I and II follow
Explanation:
Since the accident has caused concern, it must be fatal. So, I follows. The use of the word 'again' in the statement justifies the fact mentioned in II. So, II also follows.
Correct Answer: Neither I nor II is strong
Explanation:
The Government has already made provisions for reservation of jobs for the economically backward sections, which is a must. So, abolishing the practice of reservation altogether has no meaning. Thus, argument I is vague. Also, more reservations would lead to non-recruitment of many more deserving candidates. Besides, such a reservation, if implemented, will cater to the job requirements of only a small section of population and not a major part of it. So, argument II also does not hold strong.
Correct Answer: Only assumption I is implicit
Explanation:
The recommendation of the book by Enn and Enn implies that it is available. So, I is implicit. Also, the book has been referred to as a good one, but this does not mean that no other books are available on the subject. So, II is not implicit.
