MOCK PAPER 1II
Directions for (Questions 74 - 78): Read the passage carefully and then answer questions that follow:
Both plants and animals of many sorts show remarkable changes in form, structure, growth habits, and even mode of
reproduction in becoming adapted to different climatic environment, types of food supply, or mode of living. This
divergence in response to evolution is commonly expressed by altering the form and function of some part of parts of the
organism, the original identity of which is clearly discernible. For example, the creeping foot of the snail is seen in related
marine pteropods to be modified into a flapping organ useful for swimming, and is changed into swimming, and is
changed into prehensile arms that bear sectorial disks in the squids and other cephalopods. The limbs of various
mammals are modified modes of life for swift running (cursorial) as in the horse and antelope, for swinging in trees
(arboreal) as in the monkeys, for digging (fossorial) as in the moles and gophers, for flying (volant) as in the bats, for
swimming (aquatic) as in the seals, whales and dolphins, and for other adaptations. The structures or organs that show
main change in connection with this adaptive divergence are commonly identified readily as homologous, in spite of great
alterations. Thus, the finger and wristbones of a bat and whale, for instance, have virtually nothing in common except that
they are definitely equivalent elements of the mammalian limb.

Directions for (Questions (97 100): Answer the questions that follow the passage below.
To remake the world (including Nature), Fourier mobilized: an intolerance (for Civilization), a form (classification), a
standard (pleasure), on imagination (the 'scene'), a discourse (his book), all of which pretty well defined 'the action of the
signifier or the signifier in action. This action continually makes visible on the page a glaring lack, that of science and
politics, that is, of the signified. What Fourier lacks (for that matter voluntarily) points in return to what we ourselves lack
when we reject Fourier: to be ironic about Fourier is always - even from the scientific point of view - to censure the
signifier. Political and Domestic (the name of Fourier's system), science and Utopia, Marxism and Fourierism, are like two
nets whose meshes are of different sizes. On the one hand, Fourier allows to pass through all the science that Marx
collects and develops; from the political point of view (and above all since Marxism has given an indelible name to its
shortcomings). Fourier is completely off to one side, unrealistic and immoral. However, the other, facing, net allows
pleasure, which Fourier collects, to pass through. Desire and Need pass through, as though the two nets were
alternatively superimposed, playing at topping hands. However, the relationship of Desire and Need is not
complementary (were they fitted one into the other, every-thing would be perfect), but supplementary: each is the

11

MOCK PAPER 1II
excess of the other. The excess: what does not pass through. For example, seen from today (i.e., after Marx), politics is a
necessary purge; Fourier is the child who avoids the purge, who vomits it up.
The vomiting of politics is what Fourier calls Invention. Fourierist invention ("For me, I am an inventor, and not an
orator") addresses the absolutely new, that about which nothing has yet been said. The rule of invention is a rule of
refusal: to doubt absolutely (more than did Descartes, who, Fourier though, never made more than a partial and
misplaced use of doubt), to be in opposition with everything being done, to treat only of what has not been treated, to
stand apart from "literary agitator", Book People, to preach what opinion holds to be impossible. It is in sum for this
purely structural reason (old/new) and through a simple constraint of the discourse (to speak only where there has not
yet been speech) that Fourier is silent understood in the modem sense: Fourier repudiates the writer, i.e. the certified
manager of good writing, of literature, he who guarantees decorative union and thus the fundamental separation of
substance and form; in calling himself an inventor ("I am not a writer, but an inventor"), he places himself at the limit of
meaning, what we today call Text. Perhaps, following Fourier, we should henceforth call inventor (and not writer or
philosopher) he who proposes new formulae and thereby invests, by fragments, immensely and in detail, the space of the

All given statements are needed. Hence, none is redundant.

22. (d) By putting different value of x and y we see that none of these three hold good.
23. (b) Let the number of direct routes from A to B be x, from A to C be z and that from C to B be y. then, the total

Therefore 23y + z = 33. then, y must take value 1 and then z = 10, thus answer is (b).

32. (b) In each box is to be weighed (in pair) with every other box, then there would be ten such combination of weight.
The best way to solve the question is through option.
Max. weight cannot be 60 kg because to make the total weight of two boxes 121 kg other should be 61 kg. against if
the max. weight is 64 kg then to make a total weight of 121 kg other box weight should be 57 kg and to make up to
a total of 120 kg the next box weight should be 63 kg. Now if we add up the weight of 63 kg and 64 kg boxes, the
total becomes 127 and this combination is not given in the question. However, if we consider the max. weight to be
62 kg, then other boxes would be of 59 kg, 54 kg, 58 kg, 5 kg respectively. Hence the maximum weight would be
62 kg.
