Directions(30-36):Read the given passage and answer the questions that follow:
Scott Kelly, a NASA astronaut, is the first American to make a one-year trip to space. He arrived at
the International Space Station Friday with two Russians, Mikhail Kornienko, who will also remain
in space for a year, and Gennady Padalka, who will stay for only six months but is on track to break
the record for the most cumulative time a human has spent in space — nearly two and a half years.
A Soyuz capsule carrying three astronauts docked at the International Space Station at 9:36 p.m.
Eastern time, less than six hours after it left the Baikonur Commodore in Kazakhstan. Just a few
years ago, that was a trip that took two days, or 34 orbits, before the Soyuz capsule could catch up
with the space station.It is now quicker to go from Earth to the space station than it is to fly from
New York to London. Maybe less cramped than the economy seats, too.
Since the first component of the International Space Station was launched in 1998, most Soyuz and
Space Shuttle missions have docked at the station. (Both programs existed before the I.S.S., but the
chart shows only missions that went to the station. The rate of Soyuz launches doubled in 2009,
when the station‘s crew increased from three to six people. Typically two Soyuz capsules are docked
CP/16/C5
to the station to evacuate the crew in an emergency.Unmanned Progress spacecraft, which resemble
the Soyuz, are used to resupply the station. The craft are not reusable, and burn up on re-entry.
NASA has financed 10 research proposals to compare the health of Scott Kelly on the space station
and Mark Kelly, his twin brother, on Earth. One of the proposals was developed by Christopher
Mason, a geneticist at Weill Cornell Medical College.Right here in N.Y.C., in the freezers of my
laboratory, are the DNA and RNA for the Kelly twins. I‘m using these genetic elements to look at
what happens to the genetic code of the astronauts (genome), how the DNA is regulated over time
(epigenome), how the DNA becomes active in response to space travel (RNA activity) and how
those RNAs get modified as well (epitranscriptome).
My team will look for genes that change in response to suborbital flight and zero gravity, including
alterations to sleep genes (circadian rhythm), stress-response genes, and cellular activity and
regulation genes.
I will also be looking for potentially novel genes that are specific to the human body‘s response to
spaceflight, and how these change over the one-year mission. I will also get some DNA and RNA
from tubes collected on the space station.
If you were an astronaut spending a year away from loved ones and highways and parks and Dunkin‘
Donuts, you might feel a million miles removed from it all. But the International Space Station orbits
at an average distance of about 250 miles above Earth — in fact, it should take only about six hours
for Mr. Kelly, Mr. Padalka and Mr. Kornienko to reach the station.That is less time than it would
take you to travel from Washington to Boston on Amtrak, or from New York to London on a
commercial jet. You could spend just as much time flying from Los Angeles to Honolulu. Or you
could take a long nap on the New York city subway, riding the A train from end to end three times,
covering a bit more than 90 miles.

Directions(37-39):Read the given passage and answer the questions that follow:
SAFTA was envisaged primarily as the first step towards the transition to a South Asian Free Trade
Area (SAFTA) leading subsequently towards a Customs Union, Common Market and Economic
Union. In 1995, the Sixteenth session of the Council of Ministers (New Delhi, 18–19 December
1995) agreed on the need to strive for the realisation of SAFTA and to this end an Inter-
Governmental Expert Group (IGEG) was set up in 1996 to identify the necessary steps for
progressing to a free trade area. The Tenth SAARC Summit (Colombo, 29–31 July 1998) decided to
set up a Committee of Experts (COE) to draft a comprehensive treaty framework for creating a free
trade area within the region, taking into consideration the asymmetries in development within the
region and bearing in mind the need to fix realistic and achievable targets. The SAFTA Agreement
was signed on 6 January 2004 during Twelfth SAARC Summit held in Islamabad, Pakistan. The
Agreement entered into force on 1 January 2006, and the Trade LiberalisationProgramme

DIRECTIONS (Q.173-180): The questions are based on information/arguments

contained in paragraphs. Consider the information/argument, then pick the logical
answer accordingly.
173. With more than a billion mouths to feed, there is a fierce debate in India about whether to
introduce genetically modified food crops. Scientists say they are crucial to tackling food
shortages, but farmers and others are divided over the benefits. Doubts have been raised by
the experience of growing genetically modified cotton in India, which has been blamed by
activists for the suicides of thousands of farmers in the poorest parts of the country.
The details above raise which of the following questions?

a. Will the Indian government be able to feed the more than one billion mouths?
b. Can the uneducated Indian farmer understand the genetically modified food crops?
c. Will genetically modified food crops go follow the fate of genetically modified cotton?

174. A new research looking back to the Miocene period, which began a little over 20 million
CP/16/C5
years ago found that at the start of the period, carbon dioxide concentrations in the
atmosphere stood at about 400 parts per million (ppm) with sea levels 25-40 m (80-130 ft)
higher than today, before beginning to decline about 14 million years ago—a trend that
eventually led to formation of the Antarctic icecap and perennial sea ice cover in the
Arctic. In the intervening millennia, CO2 concentrations have been much lower; in the
last few million years they cycled between l8Oppm and 280ppm in rhythm with the
sequence of ice ages and warmer interglacial periods. Therefore, the current political
targets on climate may be ―playing with fire‖.
Which of the following makes the current political targets on climate ―playing with fire‖?
a. Humanity‘s emissions of greenhouse gases are pushing towards the 400ppm, which will
very likely be reached within a decade.
b. The CO2 level that would prevent dangerous human interference with the climate system
currently receiving a lot of political support is 450 ppm.
c. Humanity does not know where the critical CO2 or temperature threshold is beyond which
ice sheet of the poles collapse becomes inevitable.
d. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (TPCC) work on ancient climates for the
organization‘s report in 2007, provides an accurate look at how past CO2 values relate to
climate.
175. In a bad mood ? Don‘t worry—according to research, it‘s good for you. An Australian
psychology expert who has been studying emotions has found being grumpy makes us think
more clearly. In contrast to those annoying happy types, miserable people are better at
decision-making and less gullible, his experiments showed. While cheerfulness fosters
creativity gloominess breeds attentiveness and careful thinking, Professor Joe Forgas told
Australian Science Magazine.
Which of the following, if true, strengthens the argument of Joe Forgas?

a. Being grumpy raises the blood pressure of people and they usually have to relax before
making decisions.
b. Anybody who wanders through life in a continuous state of bonhomie either has no idea
what‘s going on around them or simply doesn‘t care.
c. A person who is cheerful and happy is generally not easily taken advantage of by others.
d. Schopenhauer, the Great Grump, has had a profound influence in the realm of all those
cheerful, creative artists, beyond philosophy.
176. Will military power become less important in the coming decades? It is true that the number
of large-scale inter-state wars continues to decline, and fighting is unlikely among advanced
democracies and on many issues. But, as Barack Obama said in accepting the Nobel Peace
Prize in 2009, ―we must begin by acknowledging the hard truth that we will not eradicate
violent conflict in our lifetimes. There wifi be times when nations—acting individually or in
concert—will find the use of force not only necessary but morally justified.‖
CP/16/C5
Which of the following provides best supporting evidence for Barack Obama‘s view that
―nations will find the use of force not only necessary but morally justified‖?

argued that power comes from the barrel of a gun.
b. In today‘s world, military power is also used to provide protection for allies and assistance
to friends.
c. Of 226 significant armed conflicts between 1945 and 2002, less than half in the 1950‘s
were fought between states and armed groups.
d. In the twenty-first century, most ―wars‖ occur within, rather than between states, and many
combatants do not wear uniforms.
177. On 20 April 2010, an explosion on Deepwater Horizon, a British Petroleum (BP)-operated oil
rig in the Gulf of Mexico, led to the most publicized oil spill in decades. Another blowout in
the same waters 31 years ago, farther south on the Mexican side of the Gulf, turned into the
largest peacetime oil spill ever. The platform where that accident happened, called Ixtoc 1,
was operated by Pemex, the state-owned Mexican oil company. In both cases, efforts were
made to burn off the oil from the ocean‘s surface.
Which of the following, if true, must have led to the failure of the efforts to burn off the oil?
a. The properties of the oil emulsion spilling over form an oil rig differ from normal crude
oil.
b. Some part of the spilled oil will float on the surface, but parts will also form plumes at
different depths in the water mass.
c. Oil on water doesn‘t burn well, and the emulsified oil from a blowout hardly burns at all.
d. Standard aerial or satellite imaging techniques to measure the quantity of oil spified do not
work well.

someone as smart as Gates, who can afford to hire experts on any subject under the sun, some
of his foundation‘s strategies are baffling. Consider his foundation‘s approach to malaria,
which focuses on bed nets, a low-tech, only modestly effective intervention, and on the
development of a vaccine, a high-tech solution that has eluded intensive efforts for decades.
The writer‘s argument is based on which of the following assumptions?

a. In combination with other anti-malarials, artemisinins have been used effectively for
several years to treat multiple-drug-resistant malaria.
b. Elimination of the mosquitoes that spread the disease is the key to preventing malaria.
c. DDT is an inexpensive and effective pesticide once widely deployed to kill disease-
carrying insects.
d. There are cheaper, low tech and effective solutions to control the vector carrying malaria.
179. In June 2009, the United Nations‘ World Health Organization, responding to an outbreak of
the H1N1 virus, or swine flu, boosted the pandemic alert to the highest level, Phase 6,
meaning that a pandemic was under way—the first time in 41 years that the organization had
taken that declared step. But the outbreak appears to have ended less like the rogue wild boar
CP/16/C5
that WHO bureaucrats predicted and more like roasted pork tenderloin with apples and sage,
in other words the appearance of the H1N1 flu during the past nine months might be thought
of as a net public-health benefit.
Which of the following can advanced in support of the argument?

a. The official death toll worldwide from H1N1 is under 14,000, while seasonal flu killed about
36,000 on in the United States and hundreds of thousands elsewhere.
b. HIN1 appears to have suppressed, or at least supplanted, the far more virulent and lethal
seasonal flu strains.
c. During this period only 3.7% of Americans tested positive for the seasonal flu, compared to
11.5% during the same period in 2008.
d. The publicity and resulting panic surrounding the WHO‘s announcement brought out
fraudsters peddling all sorts of ineffective and possibly dangerous protective gear and
nostrums.
180. Fertility clinics in India are booming. The services on offer have been referred to as the
country‘s ‗rent-a-womb‘ industry. The number of foreigners going to India for fertility
treatments, especially surrogacy, has dramatically increased in recent years. At present there are
no laws governing industry practices and while a new bill has been presented to the government,
there are growing fears about the commercialization of surrogacy in India.
Which of the following is the most likely fallout of the above?

a. Laws governing the ‗surrogacy industry‘ in India will be made stricter.
b. ‗Surrogacy industry‘ in India is likely to be greatly commercialized.
c. India‘s ‗surrogacy industry‘ faces regulation.
d. The Indian government is likely to close down the ‗rent-a-womb‘ industry.
