Sample questions

One question from each section of this paper, with the worked solution. The answers stay hidden until you ask for them.

English Language Fill in the Blanks
The sentence below has two blanks. Choose the pair of words that fits both blanks so that the sentence is grammatically correct and makes sense. Although the rainfall this season was unusually ___, several districts still report a ___ of drinking water.
  1. A scanty, shortage
  2. B abundant, surplus
  3. C abundant, scarcity
  4. D erratic, scarcity
Show answer & solution

Correct answer: C. abundant, scarcity

The answer is "abundant, scarcity". Start with the joining words rather than the blanks. "Although" sets up a concession, and "still" reinforces it, so the two halves of the sentence must pull in opposite directions. Heavy rain that has somehow not reached people's taps is exactly that kind of surprise, which makes "abundant" and "scarcity" the required opposites. "Scanty, shortage" is the trap. The two words are a natural pair and the sentence reads smoothly until you notice that scanty rain explains a shortage instead of contrasting with it — which leaves "Although" with nothing to concede. "Abundant, surplus" and "erratic, scarcity" fail for the same structural reason: in both, the two halves agree, so the concession is wasted.
Quantitative Aptitude Simplification and Approximation
What is the value of 18% of 450 + 27% of 200?
  1. A 130
  2. B 135
  3. C 125
  4. D 140
Show answer & solution

Correct answer: B. 135

18% of 450 = 450 × 18/100 = 81. 27% of 200 = 200 × 27/100 = 54. Adding: 81 + 54 = 135.
Reasoning Ability Syllogism
In the question below are given two statements followed by two conclusions. Take the statements to be true even if they seem at variance with commonly known facts, and decide which of the conclusions logically follows. Statements: All roses are flowers. All flowers are plants. Conclusions: I. All roses are plants. II. Some plants are roses.
  1. A Only conclusion I follows
  2. B Only conclusion II follows
  3. C Both conclusions I and II follow
  4. D Neither conclusion I nor II follows
Show answer & solution

Correct answer: C. Both conclusions I and II follow

Roses sit entirely inside flowers, and flowers sit entirely inside plants. So roses sit entirely inside plants. Conclusion I — all roses are plants — follows directly from that chain. Conclusion II is the converse of I. If every rose is a plant, then at least some plants are roses. A universal statement of the form "all A are B" always yields the particular "some B are A", so II follows as well. Both conclusions follow.
