Step1: From the given definite conditions: - Vijay lives on an even number floor but above 2nd floor and he
is not using Mi-Note 4 and I-Phone 7. Rahul is using Lenovo K6 and lives above Vijay on an odd numbered
floor. There are three friends living between the floor on which Rahul lives and the one who like Moto G5.
The one who likes Moto G5 does not live on 1st Floor. So, from these given statements there is two

Step 2: It is given that, Vipul lives on 3rd numbered Floor. There are two floors gap between the one who
uses Lenovo K6 and the one who uses Mi-Note 4. Vijay does not use I Phone7 and MI Note4, so from these
Case 1 is eliminated and hence we have to continue with case 2.

Case 2:

Step 3: Now it is given that Suman uses Samsung Young and lives on an even number floor, Suman lives
immediately above of the floor in which Preeti lives. Preeti does not using MI-Note 4 and Nokia 6, hence
Preeti stays on first floor and uses I phone 7. Nokia 6 user stays on 5th floor as it is given that Kamal is
using Nokia 6 and stays on odd numbered Floor but above Suman. Hence, we get our final arrangement.

Solutions (166-170):
Step1: From the given definite conditions: - X score 64 centuries in his one-day career. R sits third to the
left of X and sits at the corner so there will be two possible cases of X and R sitting positions. S faces north
direction and sits 2nd to the right of R. So, there are two possible cases occur-
Case 1:

Case 2:

Step 2: From the given other conditions: - T, who scored 17 hundred’s in one day internationals is sitting
on the immediate right of Y. S sits 2nd to the right of T, who faces opposite to R. Immediate neighbor of S
faces same direction. V faces south direction.
Case 1:

Case 2:

Step 3: Now it is given that Y faces south direction, so case-2 will be eliminated. Y does not score 15
centuries and there are more than three players sit between the player who scored 15 centuries and the
one whose number of centuries is a perfect cube of odd number which is R so from these conditions it is
clear that V scores 15 hundred in his one-day international career and W sits on the immediate left of S.
The difference between the centuries scored by S and Y is twice the difference of centuries scored by R and
V. So, the difference of centuries of R and V is twelve. The one who scores 49 centuries and the one who
scores 19 centuries are immediate neighbors, S score 49 centuries and W score 19 centuries in their career
and Y scores 25 centuries. Hence, we get our final sitting arrangement.

Directions (31-35): Read the following passage and answer the questions as directed.

Over the decades, man has come up with several unique and resourceful inventions. The computer and
machines have begun to control and replace the important functions earlier performed by man. We have
grown extremely dependent on artificial intelligence. However, it is widely believed that artificial
intelligence cannot replace human intelligence, as man is the creator of machines.
Human brain can work constantly and more efficiently to create and make use of something wisely.
Humans are capable of learning, grasping, understanding the concept of various things. Humans are
curious to discover and create new things. Humans are multi-talented whereas machines are not. Artificial
intelligence is also created by human brains and their functions are limited.
Machines are superior to humans in terms of speed and accuracy. Calculators for example work more
accurately and speedily than human brains to make calculations. Human brain programs the functioning
of any kind of machine. Human brains develop naturally by observing, experimenting, learning and
discovering, but the improvement in machinery is possible only when its mechanical brain is fed by
humans. Also, there is no emotional intelligence in machines. Emotions play a major role in developing
human brain. Thus, the capacity of machines is limited whereas humans are always experimenting,
creating, inventing and discovering more and more.

Q31. According to the given passage what has man become increasingly dependent on?
(a) Gramophones
(b) Machine language
(c) Artificial Intelligence
(d) Assembly Language

Directions (61-65): Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions that follow.

The existence of life on Mars has been a subject of study since more than a century. Scientists have been
trying to collate evidences to figure out whether life has ever existed on this planet or is it inhabited with
people presently or if there is any possibility of life on Mars in the future. The research done until now hints
that there has never been any life on Mars nor is it inhabited with people currently. However, the possibility
of life on the red planet cannot be ruled out completely.
Research shows that surface liquid water was present on Mars during the ancient Noachian period. This
made for a habitable atmosphere for microorganisms. However, whether microorganisms ever penetrated
on the planet is still a question. Research on the subject is still going on. Today, water on Mars exists in its
solid state that is in the form of ice. Some of it also exists as vapour in the planet’s atmosphere.
Scientists have been trying to conduct research on Mars by way of telescopes, spacecrafts and rovers that
are helpful in collecting evidences about the condition and nature of this planet. It is interesting and
exciting to learn that life on this planet may be possible as its atmosphere is quite similar to Earth.

Q61. What have researches showed about the existence of life on Mars?
(a) They have hinted that there has been life on Mars till now
(b) They have hinted that there has been no life on Mars till now
(c) They have hinted that Mars is not inhabited with people
(d) All of the above

Directions (136-140) Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions that follow.

Privatization is basically the process of shifting public sector units in the hands of private owners.
Privatization in India mainly started post- independence. Many developed countries such as France,
Germany and United Kingdom had already tried hands at it and it had proved to be successful in most cases.
There are a number of reasons owing to which the government of a country takes the decision to privatize
certain sectors.
Some of these include lowering the burden of the government, coping up with the financial losses,
providing better services and enhancing the overall customer experience. While certain countries have
benefited from privatization others have failed drastically. India has seen a mixed result. While some
industries in India are doing a good job post privatization, others have dipped the quality of services and
raised the prices.
There is an on-going debate over whether the government should privatize the public- sector industries or
run them on their own. Different people have different views on this and the government has its own take.
However, the truth is that privatization has its share of advantages as well as disadvantages. The impact of
privatization has been negative in certain cases but it has also yielded its set of positive results.

Q136. In reference to which of the following countries has the author mentioned about
privatization?
(a) France
(b) United Kingdom
(c) Germany
(d) Kenya
(e) Only (a), (b) and (c)

Global warming is caused by an acute heating of the earth’s atmosphere as a result of energy being trapped.
Greenhouse gasses such as carbon dioxide and methane can cause the atmosphere to build up, leading to
solar radiation becoming trapped within the earth like within a greenhouse, hence the name. Once these
greenhouse gasses are released, they can contribute to the buildup of the atmosphere and work to trap
more solar radiation within the earth. Global warming is also largely a result of the release of methane from
cracks in the earth, landfill sites and through natural gas leaks. Cattle and other animals that produce
methane can also contribute significantly to global warming, much of this has been a problem because of
human animal farming which produces hundreds of cattle for the meat industry.

The inculcation of secularism in the constitution brings along many other fundamental rights of the citizens
of the country such as the right to expression and religious freedom. India being home to people of a large
number of religions, it is more prone to religious conflicts and other political and social damage. Secularism
here ensures the proper and fair functioning of the government meanwhile providing all the religious
groups with the rights to practice the religion of their choice and express their opinions and beliefs freely
without fear or hesitation. There have been certain instances in history where the majority groups have
tried to establish their dominance over various minority groups and sometimes also on the government.

groups and giving out equal freedom to all the religions and castes.
