Question 1 of 5
1. Question
In the arrangement P 2 6 M 9 K S 4 V 7, the positions of the 1st and the 6th elements are interchanged, those of the 2nd and the 7th are interchanged, and so on. Then, which of the following will be the 4th element from the left end in the new arrangement?
Correct
Solution (d)
The arrangement goes like this
K 2 6 M 9 P S 4 V 7
K S 6 M 9 P 2 4 V 7
K S 4 M 9 P 2 6 V 7
K S 4 V 9 P 2 6 M 7
The final arrangement will be
K S 4 V 7 P 2 6 M 9
Therefore, V will be the fourth element from the left in the new arrangement.
Incorrect
Solution (d)
The arrangement goes like this
K 2 6 M 9 P S 4 V 7
K S 6 M 9 P 2 4 V 7
K S 4 M 9 P 2 6 V 7
K S 4 V 9 P 2 6 M 7
The final arrangement will be
K S 4 V 7 P 2 6 M 9
Therefore, V will be the fourth element from the left in the new arrangement.

Question 2 of 5
2. Question
A weekly television show routinely stars six actors, J, K, L, M, N and O. Since the show has been on the air for a long time, some of the actors are good friends and some do not get along at all. In an effort to keep peace, the director sees to it that friends work together and enemies do not. Also, as the actors have become more popular, some of them need time off to do other projects. To keep the schedule working, the director has a few things she must be aware of:
J will only work on episodes on which M is working
N will not work with K under any circumstances.
M can only work every other week, in order to be free to film a movie.
At least three of the actors must appear in every weekly episode.
In a show about L getting a job at the same company J already works for and K used to work for, all three actors will appear. Which of the following is true about the other actors who may appear?
Correct
Solution (c)
In a show about L getting a job at the same company, J already works for and K used to work for, all three actors will appear.
Thus, L, J and K are appearing on the show.
We are given that
J will only work on episodes on which M is working. Thus, M is also working.
O may work as there are no conditions restricting O.
Hence, option c is correct.
Incorrect
Solution (c)
In a show about L getting a job at the same company, J already works for and K used to work for, all three actors will appear.
Thus, L, J and K are appearing on the show.
We are given that
J will only work on episodes on which M is working. Thus, M is also working.
O may work as there are no conditions restricting O.
Hence, option c is correct.

N will not work with K under any circumstances.
M can only work every other week, in order to be free to film a movie.
At least three of the actors must appear in every weekly episode.
Next week, the show involves N’s new car and O’s new refrigerator. Which of the following is true about the actors who may appear?
Correct
Solution (d)
Since M worked the previous week, he won’t work this week.
We are given J will only work on episodes on which M is working.
Thus, J cannot work.
N and O are already working and N will not work with K under any circumstances.
We are also given that; At least three of the actors must appear in every weekly episode.
Thus, L will have to work.
Hence, option d is correct.
Incorrect
Solution (d)
Since M worked the previous week, he won’t work this week.
We are given J will only work on episodes on which M is working.
Thus, J cannot work.
N and O are already working and N will not work with K under any circumstances.

Question 4 of 5
4. Question
The difference between the simple interest received from two different sources on Rs 1,500 for 3 years is Rs 13.50. The difference between their rates of interest is
Correct
Solution (c)
We know that, SI = P*T*R/100
It is given that. (1,500*3*R1)/100 – (1,500*3*R2)/100 = 13.50
On solving, R1 – R2 = 1,350/4,500 = 0.3%
Incorrect
Solution (c)
We know that, SI = P*T*R/100
It is given that. (1,500*3*R1)/100 – (1,500*3*R2)/100 = 13.50
On solving, R1 – R2 = 1,350/4,500 = 0.3%

Question 5 of 5
5. Question
The early optimism about sport’s deterrent effects on delinquency was premature as researchers failed to find any consistent relationships between sports participation and deviance. As the initial studies were based upon cross-sectional data and the effects captured were short-term, it was problematic to test and verify the temporal sequencing of events suggested by the deterrence theory. The correlation between sport and delinquency could not be disentangled from class and cultural variables known. Choosing individuals to play sports in the first place was problematic, which became more acute in the subsequent decades as researchers began to document just how closely sports participation was linked to social class indicators.
Which of the following best captures the author’s position in the passage?
Correct
Solution (b)
The main points of the passage are that the relations between sports participation and deviation have not been established and that there is not sufficient evidence to prove the relationship.
Option a is distorted because it states that the relationship is already established.
Option b mentions all the relevant points.
Option c does not talk about the relationship and hence, ruled out.
Option d distorts what is given in the paragraph by saying that latter researchers have “proved” there is no consistent relationship. Thus, it can be eliminated.
Hence, option b is the correct answer.
