Read the passage and answer the questions that follow on the basis of the information
provided in the passage.
Disequilibrium at the interface of water and air is a factor on which the transfer of heat and
water vapor from the ocean to the air depends. The air within about a millimeter of the
water is almost saturated with water vapor and the temperature of the air is close to that of
the surface water. Irrespective of how small these differences mightbe, they are crucial, and
the disequilibrium is maintained by air near the surface mixing with air higher up, which is
typically appreciably cooler and lower in water vapor content. The turbulence, which takes
its energy from the wind mixes the air. As the speed of wind increases, so does the
turbulence, and consequently the rate of heat and moisture transfer. We can arrive at a
detailed understanding of this phenomenon after further study. The transfer of momentum
from wind to water, which occurs when waves are formed is an interacting -and complicated
phenomenon. When waves are made by the wind, it transfers important amounts of energy-
energy, which is consequently not available for the production of turbulence.

. Read the passage and answer the questions that follow on the basis of the information

Roger Rosenblatt 's book Black Fiction, manages to alter the approach taken in many
previous studies by making an attempt to apply literary rather than sociopolitical criteria to
its subject. Rosenblatt points out that criticism of Black writing has very often served as a
pretext for an expounding on Blackhistory. The recent work of Addison Gayle's passes a
judgement on the value of Black fiction by clearly polit ical standards, rating each work
according to the ideas of Black identity, which it propounds. Though fiction results from
political circumstances, its author react not in ideological ways to those circumstances, and
talking about novels and stories primarily as instruments of ideology circumvents much of
the fictional enterprise. Affinities andconnections are revealed in the works of Black fiction in
Rosenblatt's literary analysis; these affinities and connections have been overlooked and
ignored by solely political studies. The writing of acceptable criticism of Black fiction,
however, presumes giving satisfactory answers to a quite a few questions. The most
important of all, is there a sufficient reason, apart from the racial identity of the authors, for
the grouping together of Black authors? Secondly, what is the distinction of Black fiction
from other modern fiction with which it is largely contemporaneous? In the work Rosenblatt
demonstrates that Black fiction is a distinct body of writing, which has an identifiable,
coherent literary tradition. He highlights recurring concerns and designs, which are
independent of chronology in Black fiction written over the past eighty years. These
concerns and designs are thematic, and they come form the central fact of the predominant
white culture, where the Black characters in the novel are situated irrespective of whether
they attempt to conform to that culture or they rebel against it. Rosenblatt's work does
leave certain aesthetic questions open. His thematic a nalysis allows considerable
objectivity; he even clearly states that he does not intend to judge the merit of the various
works yet his reluctance seems misplaced, especially since an attempt to appraise might
have led to interesting results. For example, certain novels have an appearance of structural
diffusion. Is this a defeat, or are the authors workingout of, or attempting to forge, a
different kind of aesthetic? Apart from this, the style of certain Black novels, like Jean
Toomer's Cane, verges on expressionism or surrealism; does this technique provide a
counterpoint to the prevalent theme that portrays the fate against which Black heroes are
pitted, a theme usually conveyed by more naturalistic modes of expressions? Irrespective of
such omissions, w hat Rosenblatt talks about in his work makes for an astute and
worthwhile study. His book very effectively surveys a variety of novels, highlighting certain
fascinating and little -known works like James Weldon Johnson's Autobiography of an Ex-
Coloured Man. Black Fiction is tightly constructed, and levelheaded and penetrating criticism
is exemplified in its forthright and lucid style.
The primary concern of the author in the above passage is:
A. Reviewing the validity of a work of criticism

DIRECTIONS: Read the passage and answer the questions asked below. Japanese firms have
achieved the highest levels of manufacturing efficiency in the world automobile industry.
Some observers of Japan have assumed that Japanese firms use the same manufacturing
equipment and techniques as United States firms but have benefited from the unique
characteristics of Japanese employees and the Japanese culture. However, if this were true,
then one would expect Japanese auto plants in the United States to perform no better than
factories run by United States companies. This is not the case, Japanese-run automobile
plants located in the United States and staffed by local workers have demonstrated higher
levels of productivity when compared with factories owned by United States companies.
Other observers link high Japanese productivity to higher levels of capital investment per
worker. But a historical perspective leads to a different conclusion. When the two top
Japanese automobile makers matched and then doubled United States productivity levels in
the mid-sixties, capital investment per employee was comparable to that of United States
firms. Furthermore, by the late seventies, the amount of fixed assets required to produce
one vehicle was roughly equivalent in Japan and in the United States. Since capital
investment was not higher in Japan, it had to be other factors that led to higher productivity.
A more fruitful explanation may lie with Japanese production techniques. Japanese
automobile producers did not simply implement conventional processes more effectively:
they made critical changes in United States procedures. For instance, the mass- production
philosophy of United States automakers encouraged the production of huge lots of cars in
order to utilize fully expensive, component-specific equipment and to occupy fully workers
who have been trained to execute one operation efficiently. Japanese automakers chose to
make small-lot production feasible by introducing several departures from United States
practices, including the use of flexible equipment that could be altered easily to do several
different production tasks and the training of workers in multiple jobs. Automakers could
schedule the production of different components or models on single machines, thereby
eliminating the need to store the buffer stocks of extra components that result when
specialized equipment and workers are kept constantly active.
Question: Which of the following statements concerning the productivity levels of
automakers can be inferred from the passage?
1) Prior to the 1960's, the productivity levels of the top Japanese automakers were exceeded
by those of United States automakers.
2) The culture of a country has a large effect on the productivity levels of its automakers.
3) During the late 1970?s and early 1980?s, productivity levels were comparable in Japan
and the United States.
4) The greater the number of cars that are produced in a single lot, the higher a plant?s
productivity level.

DIRECTIONS: Read the passage and answer the question asked below. Kazuko Nakane's
history of the early Japanese immigrants to central California's Pajaro Valley focuses on the
development of farming communities there from 1890 to 1940. The Issei (first-generation
immigrants)were brought into the Pajaro Valley to raise sugar beets. Like Issei laborers in
American cities, Japanese men in rural areas sought employment via the "boss" system. The
system comprised three elements: immigrant wage laborers; Issei boardinghouses where
laborers stayed; and labor contractors, who gathered workers for a particular job and then
negotiated a contract between workers and employer. This same system was originally
utilized by the Chinese laborers who had preceded the Japanese. A related institution was
the "labor club," which provided job information and negotiated employment contracts and
other legal matters, such as the rental of land, for Issei who chose to belong and paid an
annual fee to the cooperative for membership. When the local sugar beet industry collapsed
in 1902,the Issei began to lease land from the valley's strawberry farmers. The Japanese
provided the labor and the crop was divided between laborers and landowners. The Issei
began to operate farms, they began to marry and start families, forming an established
Japanese American community. Unfortunately, the Issei's efforts to attain agricultural
independence were hampered by government restrictions, such as the Alien Land Law of
1913. But immigrants could circumvent such exclusionary laws by leasing or purchasing land
in their American-born children's names. Nakane's case study of one rural Japanese
American community provides valuable information about the lives and experiences of the
Isseil. It is, however, too particularistic. This limitation derives from Nakane's methodology
that of oral history which cannot substitute for a broader theoretical or comparative
perspective. Future research might well consider two issues raised by her study: were the
Issei of the Pajaro Valley similar to or different from Issei in urban settings, and what
variations existed between rural Japanese American communities?
Question: The primary purpose of the passage is to
1) defend a controversial hypothesis presented in a history of early Japanese immigrants to

Califronia

DIRECTIONS: Read the passage and answer the question asked below: It can be argued that
much consumer dissatisfaction with marketing strategies arises from an inability to aim
advertising at only the likely buyers of a given product. There are three groups of consumers
who are affected by the marketing process. First, there is the market segment people who
need the commodity in question. Second, there is the program target people in the market
segment with the "best fit" characteristics for a specific product. Lots of people may need
trousers, but only a few qualify as likely buyers of very expensive designer trousers. Finally,
there is the program audience all people who are actually exposed to the marketing program
without regard to whether they need or want the product. These three groups are rarely
identical. An exception occurs occasionally in cases where customers for a particular
industrial product may be few and easily identifiable. Such customers, all sharing a particular
need, are likely to form a meaningful target, for example, all companies with a particular
application of the product in question, such as high-speed fillers of bottles at breweries. In
such circumstances, direct selling (marketing that reaches only the program target) is likely
to be economically justified, and highly specialized trade media exist to expose members of
the program target and only members of the program target to the marketing program. Most
consumer-goods markets are significantly different. Typically, there are many rather than
few potential customers. Each represents a relatively small percentage of potential sales.
Rarely do members of a particular market segment group themselves neatly into a
meaningful program target. There are substantial differences among consumers with similar
demographic characteristics. Even with all the past decade's advances in information
technology, direct selling of consumer goods is rare, and mass marketing a marketing
approach that aims at a wide audience remains the only economically feasible mode.
Unfortunately, there are few media that allow the marketer to direct a marketing program
exclusively to the program target. Inevitably, people get exposed to a great deal of
marketing for products in which they have no interest and so they become annoyed.
Question: The passage suggests which of the following about direct selling?
1) It is used in the marketing of most industrial products.
2) It is often used in cases where there is a large program target.
3) It is not economically feasible for most marketing programs.

DIRECTIONS: Read the passage and answer the questions asked below. Protein synthesis
begins when the gene encoding a protein is activated. The gene?s sequence of nucleotides is
transcribed into a molecule of messenger RNA (mRNA), which reproduces the information
contained in that sequence. Transported outside the nucleus to the cytoplasm, the mRNA is
translated into the protein it encodes by an organelle known as a ribosome, which strings
together amino acids in the order specified by the sequence of elements in the mRNA
molecule. Since the amount of mRNA in a cell determines the amount of the corresponding
protein, factors affecting the abundance of mRNA?s play a major part in the normal
functioning of a cell by appropriately regulating protein synthesis. For example, an excess of
certain proteins can cause cells to proliferate abnormally and become cancerous; a lack of
the protein insulin results in diabetes. Biologists once assumed that the variable rates at
which cells synthesize different mRNA?s determine the quantities of mRNA?s and their
corresponding proteins in a cell. However, recent investigations have shown that the
concentrations of most mRNA?s correlate best, not with their synthesis rate, but rather with
the equally variable rates at which cells degrade the different mRNA?s in their cytoplasm. If
a cell degrades both a rapidly and a slowly synthesized mRNA slowly, both mRNA?s will
accumulate to high levels. An important example of this phenomenon is the development of
red blood cells from their unspecialized parent cells in bone marrow. For red blood cells to
accumulate sufficient concentrations of hemoglobin (which transports oxygen) to carry out
their main function, the cells? parent cells must simultaneously produce more of the
constituent proteins of hemoglobin and less of most other proteins. To do this, the parent
cells halt synthesis of nonhemoglobin mRNA?s in the nucleus and rapidly degrade copies of
the non-hemoglobin mRNA?s remaining in the cytoplasm. Halting synthesis of mRNA alone
would not affect the quantities of proteins synthesized by the mRNA?s still existing in the
cytoplasm. Biologists now believe that most cells can regulate protein production most
efficiently by varying both mRNA synthesis and degradation, as developing red cells do,
rather than by just varying one or the other.
Question: The passage suggests that a biologist who held the view described in the first
sentence of the second paragraph would most probably also have believed which of the
following?
1) The rate of degradation of specific mRNA's has little effect on protein concentrations.
2) The rate of degradation of specific mRNA?s should be studied intensively.
3) The rates of synthesis and degradation for any given mRNA are normally equal.
4) Different mRNA?s undergo degradation at widely varying rates.

Further more, insofar as any conclusion about its author can be drawn from five or six plays
attributed to him, the Wakefield Master is without exception considered to be a man of sharp
contemporary observation. He was, probably clerically educated, as indicated by his Latin
and music, his Biblical and patristic lore. Even today he is remembered for his his quick
sympathy for the oppressed and forgotten man, his sharp eye for character, a ready ear for
colloquial, vernacular turns of speech and a humor alternately rude and boisterous, coarse
and happy. Therefore in spite of his conscious artistry as can be seen in his feeling for
intricate metrical and stanza forms, he is regarded as a kind of medieval Steinbeck,
indignantly angry at, uncompromisingly and even brutally realistic in presenting the plight of
the agricultural poor. It is now fairly accepted to regard the play as a kind of ultimate point
in the secularization of the medieval drama. Therefore more stress has been laid on it as
depicting realistically humble manners and pastoral life in the bleak of the west riding of
Yorkshire on a typically cold night of December 24th. After what are often regarded as
almost "documentaries" given in the three successive monologues of the three shepherds,
critics go on to affirm that the realism is then intensified into a burlesque mock-treatment of
the Nativity. Finally as a sort of epilogue or after-thought in deference to the Biblical origins
of the materials, the play slides back into an atavistic mood of early innocent reverence. In
actuality, the final scene is the culminating scene and also the raison d'etre of the
introductory "realism."Superficially the present play supports the conventional view of its
mood of secular realism. At the same time, the "realism" of the Wakefield Master is of a
paradoxical turn. His wide knowledge of people, as well as books indicates no cloistered
contemplative but one in close relation to his times. Still, that life was after all a
predominantly religious one, a time which never neglected the belief that man was a
rebellious and sinful creature in need of redemption. So deeply (one can hardly say "naively"
of so sophisticated a writer) and implicitly religious is the Master that he is less able (or less
willing) to present actual history realistically than is the author of the Brome Abraham and
Isaac. His historical sense is even less realistic than that of Chaucer who just a few years
before had done for his own time "costume romances," such as The Knight's Tele, Troilus and
Cressida, etc. Furthermore, used highly romantic materials, which could excuse his taking
liberties with history.

The pioneers of the teaching of science imagined that its introduction into education would
remove the conventionality, artificiality, and backward-lookingness which were
characteristic;of classical studies, but they were gravely disappointed. So, too, in their time
had the humanists thought that the study of the classical authors in the original would
banish at once the dull pedantry and superstition of mediaeval scholasticism. The
professional schoolmaster was a match for both of them, and has almost managed to make
the understanding of chemical reactions as dull and as dogmatic an affair as the reading of
Virgil's Aeneid. The chief claim for the use of science in education is that it teaches a child
something about the actual universe in which he is living, in making him acquainted with the
results of scientific discovery, and at the same time teaches him how to think logically and
inductively by studying scientific method. A certain limited success has been reached in the
first of these aims, but practically none at all in the second. Those privileged members of the
community who have been through a secondary or public school education may be expected
to know something about the elementary physics and chemistry of a hundred years ago, but
they probably know hardly more than any bright boy can pick up from an interest in wireless
or scientific hobbies out of school hours. As to the learning of scientific method, the whole
thing is palpably a farce. Actually, for the convenience of teachers and the requirements of
the examination system, it is necessary that the pupils not only do not learn scientific
method but learn precisely the reverse, that is, to believe exactly what they are told and to
reproduce it when asked, whether it seems nonsense to them or not. The way in which
educated people respond to such quackeries as spiritualism or astrology, not to say more
dangerous ones such as racial theories or currency myths, shows that fifty years of
education in the method of science in Britain or Germany has produced no visible effect
whatever. The only way of learning the method of science is the long and bitter way of
personal experience, and, until the educational or social systems are altered to make this
possible, the best we can expect is the production of a minority of people who are able to
acquire some of the techniques of science and a still smaller minority who are able to use
and develop them.

READING COMPREHENSION.
BRITISH MANAGEMENT
According to an article in Management Today, the British manager still stops work for tea.
The French managing director of Novotel, the hotel group, tells what happened at his first
management meeting when he took over its English operation in 1991:
"The meeting was in the afternoon, and it got to about 3.30 and everyone started looking at
their watches. I didn't know what was going on. I turned to my secretary, who was English,
and she said that they probably wanted to break for tea. I couldn't understand it. In France
we just carry on until we have finished. Now we always break for tea."
I am not sure how many English managers now break for tea. Not that many, I imagine.
Twenty years ago it was commonplace. I will never forget a Canadian sales director, pink
with fury, telling me at that time how he had been offered tea and biscuits at three in the
afternoon in Northampton: "I come three thousand miles, and take three taxis and a damn
steam engine into the sticks, and I wanna do business, and this guy gives me a `nice cup of
China tea and a biccy'. What IS he?" Mind you, this was the same man who in Rome told his
Italian agent that the Colosseum would make a nice parking lot.
It is not so much the cup of tea as the pint of bitter that managers from outside Britain find
a bar to efficiency. In the article, a German manager tells how when he first took over a job
in Britain, he discovered that at lunchtime and especially on Fridays, the majority of his
management team left for the pub. He says: "I stopped that right away. Now they are not
allowed off the premises. It didn't make me very popular at the time but it is not good for
efficiency. There is no way we would do that in Germany. No way."
According to European managers the British are still too concerned with class and status. A
German says: "People say that the class system is a hindrance to progress and then two
weeks later you overhear them discussing a colleague and saying, `Well, he is not very well-
spoken, is he?'" And another says: "The class gaps translate into big gulfs in the pay league,
too. In Germany, I might earn three times more than my secretary. Here it is five times."
Some criticisms are rather like those levelled at Japanese management. For example, talking
about status, a Dutch manager says: "A director is God here. They respect him and think
that he is right even when he is wrong. It's quite difficult to have an open conversation.
People will not say Ì disagree'."
Too great an interest in money is also criticised. A Dutch manager says: "My first impression
on coming to Britain was that profit seemed to be the most important thing." And a
Frenchman points out the difference between the UK and France: "In France there is no
pressure on the bottom line."
The French manager also points out a difference in educational standards: "In France all the
secretaries, or personal assistants as we call them, would have degrees. You wouldn't
consider recruiting one without a degree. So, that means you can delegate much more to
the secretaries in France. In the UK you cannot do that so much."

Read the passage and answer the questions according to the passage:
NOISE The world ought to be a quieter place. Anti-noise has hit the marketplace. It
means, for example, that refrigerators will no longer whine, vacuum cleaners no longer
roar, and washing machines no longer rumble. It may even soon be possible to cancel
out the low-frequency throb of the teenage stereo blasting its bass through the wall
from the flat next door. Already Toshiba has introduced a silent refrigerator. Built into
the fridge is a system that silences the hum of the motor by firing anti-noise at it.
What is anti-noise? It is the exact opposite of a particular sound. It peaks when the
other sound dips, and dips when the other sound wave peaks. The anti-sound is fired at
the unwanted sound through a loudspeaker. The two waves cancel each other out, like
ripples meeting each other on a pond. The rest is silence.
There must, however, be a perfect match, otherwise you end up with double the din.
Thus anti-noise has had to wait for the microprocessor in order to be effective. The
microprocessor can monitor the unwanted sound and respond in milliseconds.
A typical active noise cancellation system has been sold to a railway company in the
United States. The company unloads grain from trains by using giant vacuum tubes.
These tubes produce as much noise a jet taking off. After installing the system, the
noise was reduced to the level of an air-conditioner's hum. Forty were installed, to the
relief of Americans living near railway unloading points.
In the aircraft industry, active noise cancellation is contributing to a revival in propeller-
driven passenger aircraft, which passengers disliked because of their noise. The first
test flight with an anti-noise system took off in 1989. The system has now move on
from research to commercial development, with passengers likely to hear the benefits
in a year or two.
In the car industry, conventional mufflers generate back-pressure, which forces the
engine to work harder. An active noise canceller removes the need for sound-absorbing
chambers, and improves fuel consumption by as much as six per cent. From the point
of view of saving fuel, car makers are keen to install the technology.
It won't be long before silent washing machines, fridges and vacuum cleaners are in the
High Street shops. Electrolux has signed an agreement to manufacture the technology
which should be on the market by 1994.
The trouble is, once you remove one noise, you become more aware of all the others.
How will we be able to shut up the sparrows at five in the morning?

1. READING COMPREHENSION
FAT
One day, 43 years old, Walter Hudson walked out of the front door of his home on Long
Island for the first time in 17 years. He sat down on a specially made concrete chair and
told the reporters and TV cameras assembled there, "This is the best day of my life." A bit
unsteady on his feet, having spent the past 28 years in bed, he looked half the man he used
to be: that is, he had cut himself back from 600 kilo to just 300.
Although few Americans aspire to Walter's size, 34 million of them are heavier than they
ought to be. So, a few years ago, when Walter fell out of bed and was stuck on the floor
until the fire brigade came to help him up, there was some general sympathy with his
predicament. Walter explained: "As long as I lay in bed, my size never bothered me. It
never even dawned upon me that I couldn't do what I wanted to until the day I fell and
couldn't get up. That was the complete turn-around that made me want to change my life."
The publicity which resulted changed his life. More than one thousand people contacted him.
He set up a hotline to his home, and now spends a lot of time talking to fellow-sufferers. A
true American, he has marketed his own brand of powdered food formula called "Bio-
Nutrition".
In the case of the severely obese, drastic answers may be necessary. In America, obesity is
seen as an illness, a disease, and treated accordingly. In extreme cases, surgery could be
recommended. Surgery was first used in America during the 50s with an operation to short-
circuit the small bowel in order to prevent the absorption of fats. Weight was lost but some
of the side-effects of the operation turned out to be fatal. In 1981, in Iowa, the first
gastroplasty operation was performed. The stomach was stitched across, horizontally, so
that only half of it could be used. The latest development, an alternative to surgery, is to
have a balloon put in the stomach. There are 20,000 people in America walking around with
balloons in their stomachs. The balloon is made of specially prepared rubber, is inflated in
the stomach and left there for three months. The big danger is deflation and blockage of the
bowels. Otherwise, it's like having permanently just eaten a ham sandwich.
All her life, Barbara Quelch had weighed 140 kilo. She was successful, the director of an
advertising agency and the mother of four children. She had made several attempts to lose
weight, even going to the lengths of having her jaws wired. She explained: "It was very
antisocial and over nine months I cut my weight down by half. However, when my jaws were
unwired, I soon returned to my usual weight. I didn't suffer as much as other fat people. I
had a full and happy life. But I got out of breath very quickly, and was tired and irritable a
lot of the time. Then I had the gastroplasty operation. I lost weight within days. I could only
take fluids for the first two months after the operation, and in the following five months I
lost three kilo a week. I still can't eat certain foods, such as meat and potatoes. Most of my
meals wouldn't fill a saucer. I am often sick after meals, but I don't regret a thing. I have
always wanted to wear modern clothes and now I can go to a shop and choose what I want
instead of having to take something because it fits. I am more assertive now. I used to be
quieter and didn't want to do anything in case it drew attention to my figure. Now I say
what I like. I don't care what people think any more. It's not a miracle. The stomach can
stretch again, usually after three years, so it is important to eat small amounts of food,
often. If this fails there is nothing else. It is a last resort."

3. br>READING COMPREHENSION
OZONE
In 1928, Thomas Midgley, a scientist and engineer in America, found a way to use
chlorofluorcarbons (CFCs) as a refrigerant. They proved to be a valuable compound, stable,
non-poisonous, non-corrosive, non-flammable.
Their low thermal conductivity made them ideal for coolants in refrigerators and air-
conditioners. In the Second World War, CFCs were widely used as cleaning solvents and in
plastic foam for food and drink containers, and the insulation of buildings.
These are the products which, doubling in output every ten years, have contributed to the
destruction of the ozone layer, the thin veil in the stratosphere which protects animals and
plants from disease and, possibly, extinction.
Other man-made chemicals, apart from CFCs, are eating ozone molecules. Among them are
halon gases used in fire extinguishers, aerosols, and refrigerators, and two compounds
widely used as solvents: methyl chloroform and carbon tetrachloride. Their combined
reaction on the ozone layer is devastating, allowing ultraviolet rays from the sun, known as
UV-Bs, to bombard the earth.
UV-Bs cause skin cancer. Medical journals in Australia say two-thirds of the population alive
today will develop some form of skin cancer. More than 250,000 of the continent's 16 million
inhabitants will develop the deadliest of all, malignant melanoma.
UV-Bs can damage the immune system and leave you open to infectious diseases. They
damage your eyes, burning the cornea, injuring the retina and generating cataracts. In
southern Chile, blindness has begun to strike humans, sheep, rabbits and horses. The
radiation kills off the plankton on which larger sea creatures depend, and in southern Chile a
12 per cent reduction in plankton has been measured.
The scientists who know about the ozone layer are worried. They give three reasons for
their pessimism:
1. ozone depletion is now general over the globe, and occurring twice as fast as had been
predicted: according to reports, in the first two months of this year, parts of the ozone layer
shrank by 20 per cent, and levels of chlorine, the ozone-eating chemical, were 70 times
higher than normal;
2. depletion is now being caused by the CFCs released in the mid-1970s, and so the
chemicals being released now will endanger our children;
3. no one knows what the cumulative effects of the depletion of the ozone layer will be, but
they do know that things from now on are going to change very quickly indeed.

There are two theories that have often been used to explain ancient and modern tragedy.
Neither quite explains the complexity of the tragic process or the tragic hero, but each
explains important elements of tragedy, and, because their conclusions are contradictory,
they represent extreme views.
But this theory of tragedy is an oversimplification, primarily because it confuses the tragic
condition with the tragic process: the theory does not acknowledge that fate, in a tragedy,
normally becomes external to the hero only after the tragic process has as a heroism that
creates the splendor and exhilaration that is unique to tragedy.The tragic hero quality of an
honest person, but the external antagonist of the criminal. Secondarily, this theory of
tragedy does not distinguish tragedy from irony. Irony does not need an exceptional central
figure: the original destiny never quite fades out of the tragedy.
As a rule, the more ignoble the hero the sharper the irony, when irony alone is the objective.
It is heroism that creates the splendor and exhilaration that is unique to tragedy. The tragic
hero normally has an extraordinary, often a nearly divine, destiny almost within grasp, and
the glory of the original destiny never quite fades out of the tragedy.
The second theory of tragedy states that the act that sets the tragic process in motion must
be primarily a violation of normal law, whether human or divine; in short, that the tragic
hero must have a flaw that has an essential connection with sin. Again it is true that the
great majority of tragic heroes do possess hubris, or a proud and passionate mind that
seems to make the hero?s downfall morally explicable. But such hubris is only the
precipitating agent of catastrophe, just as in comedy the cause )f the happy ending is
usually some act of humility often performed by a noble character who is meanly disguised.
This theory of tragedy as morally explicable runs into the question of whether an innocent
sufferer in a tragedy, such as Iphigenia, or Socrates in Plato Apology, is a tragic figure. They
are, of course, even though it is not very easy to find crucial moral flaws in them. Cordelia
shows sincerity and high spirit in refusing to flatter her faber, and Cordelia is 30 hanged.
Tragedy, in short, is ambiguous and cannot be reduced to the opposition between human
effort. and external fate, just as it cannot be reduced to the opposition between good and
evil.
Which of the following comparisons of the tragic with the ironic hero is best supported by
information contained in the? passage?
a) A tragic hero's fate is an external condition, but an ironic hero?s fate is an internal one.
b) A tragic hero must be controlled by fate, but an ironic hero cannot be.
c) A tragic hero's moral flaw surprises the, audience, but an ironic hero?s sin does not.
d) A tragic hero and an ironic hero cannot both be virtuous figures in the same tragedy.
e) A tragic hero is usually extraordinary, but an ironic hero may be cowardly or even
villainous

Democratic institutions are devices for reconciling social order with individual freedom and
initiative, and for making the immediate power of a country's rulers subject to the ultimate
power of the ruled. The fact that, in Western Europe and America, these devices have
worked, all things considered, ot too badly is proof enough that the eighteenth century
optimists were not entirely wrong. Given a fair chance, I repeat; for the fair chance is an
indispensable prerequisite. No people that pass abruptly from a state of subservience under
the rule of a despot to the completely unfamiliar state of political independence can be said
to have a fair chance of being able to govern itself democratically. Liberalism flourishes in an
atmosphere of prosperity and declines as declining prosperity makes it necessary for the
government to intervene ever more frequently and drastically in the affairs of its subjects.
Over-population and over-organization are two conditions which ... deprive a society of a fair
chance of making democratic institutions work effectively.
We see, then, that there are certain historical, economic, demographic and technological
conditions which make it very hard for Jefferson's rational animals, endowed by nature with
inalienable rights and an innate sense of justice, to exercise their reason, claim their rights
and act justly within a democratically organized society.
We in the West have been supremely fortunate in having been given a fair chance of making
the great experiment in self-government. Unfortunately, it now looks as though, owing to
recent changes in our circumstances, this infinitely precious fair chance were being, little by
little, taken away from us.

1.
Most people can remember a phone number for up to thirty seconds. When this short
amount of time elapses, however, the numbers are erased from the memory. How did the
information get there in the first place? Information that makes its way to the short term
memory (STM) does so via the sensory storage area. The brain has a filter which only allows
stimuli that is of immediate interest to pass on to the STM, also known as the working
memory.
There is much debate about the capacity and duration of the short term memory. The most
accepted theory comes from George A. Miller, a cognitive psychologist who suggested that
humans can remember approximately seven chunks of information. A chunk is defined as a
meaningful unit of information, such as a word or name rather than just a letter or number.
Modern theorists suggest that one can increase the capacity of the short term memory by
chunking, or classifying similar information together. By organizing information, one can
optimize the STM, and improve the chances of a memory being passed on to long term
storage.
When making a conscious effort to memorize something, such as information for an exam,
many people engage in "rote rehearsal". By repeating something over and over again, one is
able to keep a memory alive. Unfortunately, this type of memory maintenance only succeeds
if there are no interruptions. As soon as a person stops rehearsing the information, it has the
tendency to disappear. When a pen and paper are not handy, people often attempt to
remember a phone number by repeating it aloud. If the doorbell rings or the dog barks to
come in before a person has the opportunity to make a phone call, he will likely forget the
number instantly.* Therefore, rote rehearsal is not an efficient way to pass information from
the short term to long term memory.* A better way is to practice "elaborate rehearsal".
*This involves assigning semantic meaning to a piece of information so that it can be filed
along with other pre-existing long term memories.*
Encoding information semantically also makes it more retrievable. Retrieving information can
be done by recognition or recall. Humans can easily recall memories that are stored in the
long term memory and used often; however, if a memory seems to be forgotten, it may
eventually be retrieved by prompting. The more cues a person is given (such as pictures),
the more likely a memory can be retrieved. This is why multiple choice tests are often used
for subjects that require a lot of memorization.
The author believes that rote rotation is:
A) the best way to remember something
B) more efficient than chunking
C) ineffective in the long run
D) an unnecessary interruption

Answer the questions based on the given passage I remember being taught in school about
his landmark experiment in which he recreated the atmosphere of the primitive earth in a
laboratory and shot electricity through it to simulate the effects of lightning. Before long, he
found that amino acids-the building blocks of life-had been created. Sagan called it the
single most significant step in convincing many scientists that life is likely to be abundant in
the cosmos. Chemist William Day said "the experiment showed that this first step in the
creation of life was not a chance event, but it was inevitable". Astronomer Harlow Shapley
said Miller had proven that `the appearance of life is essentially an automatic biochemical
development that comes along naturally when physical conditions are right?. Only two
percent of the material he produced was composed of amino acids. But there was a major
problem with the experiment that has invalidated its results. "Miller and Oparin did not have
any real proof that the earth?s early atmosphere was composed of ammonia, methane, and
hydrogen, which Miller used in his experiment. They based their theory on physical
chemistry. They wanted to get a chemical reaction that would be favorable, and so they
proposed that the atmosphere was rich in those gases. Oparin was smart enough to know
that if you start with inert gases like nitrogen and carbon dioxide, they won?t react." From
1980 on, NASA scientists have shown that the primitive earth never had any methane,
ammonia, or hydrogen to amount to anything. Instead, it was composed of water, carbon
dioxide, and nitrogen and you absolutely cannot get the same experimental results with that
mixture. It just won?t work. More recent experiments have confirmed this to be the case.
Now new discoveries have changed everything-and yet there are generations of former
students still living under the impression that the origin of life issue has been resolved. When
textbooks present the Miller experiment, they should be honest enough to say it was
interesting historically but not terribly relevant to how life actually developed. Which of the
following does not represent any of the author?s key arguments?
1) Miller?s experiment was not germane to the question about the origin of life on earth.
2) Miller?s theory was based on physical chemistry
3) It was Miller and Oparin who proposed that atmosphere was rich in methane, ammonia
and hydrogen.

4.Fact, logic, and data drive the world of economics. Experts analyze past and current
information in order to draw conclusions on possible future market behavior. In turn, investors
read these interpretations and combine them with their own data collection, forming a personal
belief and acting accordingly. These actions create more data, which the analysts then collect and
examine, creating an interminable loop of information exchange. This unending interaction
seems simple enough; however, the accuracy of economic forecasting is a testament to the true
complexity of this analyst-data-investor matrix. A major source of uncertainty in the field of
forecasting is the fact that, in order to convey pure data to investors in ways they can understand,
a medium of communication must be used. The sheer volume of data being created each second
cannot simply be passed to the investor for comprehension; the analyst must observe it, draw
conclusions, and somehow deliver his or her ?factual prediction? to the investor. It is in this
transference from numbers and fact to visuals and argument that data speaks slyly. A powerful
example of this phenomenon occurs when viewing any visual image attributed to an economic
forecast. Primarily, the transference of data to graphical representation is of great concern.
Economic graphs are unique in the realm of visual images in that they convey an extremely large
amount of concrete information using simple lines and values. Their ability to reduce complex
theory into a simple visual concept certainly renders them as powerful rhetorical devices.
However, this potency is often misused by those who purport to convey truth in forecasting. The
strong logical appeal of a graph can easily overshadow the content of an economic analysis, a
dangerous effect in the hands of an analyst looking for one small piece of data in the
insurmountable pile of information that exists and that grows constantly. Furthermore, many
economic reporters and quasi-forecasters use non-graphical images in their clouded rhetoric,
obscuring the financial analysis with a pathetic appeal. Clearly, visual rhetoric is a subtle yet
potent source of manipulation in the economic realm. This practice of misrepresentation and
misdirection with images abounds in financial literature, detracts from the truth value of
economic prediction, and casts further doubt on the practice?s merit. According to the passage,
which of the following is a demonstration of true complexity of the analyst-data-investor matrix
1) Unending interaction2) Uncertainty in the field of forecasting3) Interminable loop of

Directions for questions: Answer the questions based on the given passage
The power of music to control the spirit has always been understood, but within
the last decade, new technologies have made visible the interaction between
music and the physical brain. The making and processing of music involves
structures, networks, and pathways throughout the brain, from the highest order
of conscious reaction to the lowest unconscious levels of response.
Music has been shown to stimulate the brain?s primary engines of human
capacity. Musical engagement exercises attentional networks and executive
function, evokes emotional response and stimulates the central nervous system,
and appears to activate the human mirror-neuron system, supporting the
coupling between perceptual events (visual or auditory) and motor actions (leg,
arm/hand, or vocal/articulatory actions).
At one time, theories of human brain development argued that there was little
16. or no growth of brain cells after age 30.
But recent studies of music and the brain have shown this view to be erroneous.
The brain is a plastic organ and music itself has the power to shape the brain?s
development into later life. The implications of this finding are huge. Providing
opportunities for people to experience music in many settings can have a
profound impact on their healthy development. Exposure to music alters the
physical structure of the brain. Engaging in musical activities not only shapes
the organization of the developing brain but also produces long-lasting changes
even after brain maturation is complete. For example, those who frequently
play a musical instrument are less likely to develop dementia compared to
those who do not, revealing that music works not only to train the brain, but
also to protect cognitive functioning.

Directions for questions : Answer the questions based on the given passage
Quantitative easing is an unconventional monetary policy used by central banks to
stimulate the economy when standard monetary policy has become ineffective. A
central bank implements quantitative easing by buying specified amounts of long
term financial assets from commercial banks and other private institutions, thus
increasing the monetary base and lowering the yield on those financial assets. This
is distinguished from the more usual policy of buying or selling government bonds
in order to keep interbank interest rates at a specified target value.Expansionary
monetary policy typically involves the central bank buying short-term government
bonds in order to lower short-term market interest rates. However, when short-term
interest rates are at or close to zero, normal monetary policy can no longer lower
interest rates. Quantitative easing may then be used by monetary authorities to
further stimulate the economy by purchasing assets of longer maturity than short-
term government bonds, and thereby lowering longer-term interest rates further
out on the yield curve. Quantitative easing raises the prices of the financial assets
bought, which lowers their yield. There are two potential benefits. The first is that
the banks get cash in exchange for the gilts they sell back to the government and
the increase in the money supply leads to an increased volume of lending. The
second is that decreasing the supply of gilts pushes up their price. When gilt prices
go up, gilt yields go down and it is gilt yields that determine long-term interest
rates for overdrafts, some fixed-rate mortgage products and most business lending.
Quantitative easing can be used to help ensure that inflation does not fall below
target. Risks include the policy being more effective than intended in acting against
deflation (leading to higher inflation in the longer term, due to increased money
supply), or not being effective enough if banks do not lend out the additional
reserves. According to the IMF and various other economists, quantitative easing
undertaken since the global financial crisis of 2007?08 has mitigated some of the
adverse effects of the crisis.
Infer what the author could be referring to,while talking about the risks involved in
the ?policy being more effective than intended against deflation??
1) the increase in the money supply may lead to an increased volume of borrowing
2) the increase in the money supply may lead to increased volume of lending
3) the already low interest rates could immediately drop leading to excess money in
hands of public

than intended in acting against deflati on (leading to higher

The intended effect against deflation is that the volume of
lending should incre ase.If the bank increases volume the
lending, the people will also borrow more increasing the
volume of borrowing.So these two actions cannot be more
than effective than intended.

Answer the questions based on the given passage Quantitative easing is an

unconventional monetary policy used by central banks to stimulate the economy
when standard monetary policy has become ineffective. A central bank implements
quantitative easing by buying specified amounts of long term financial assets from
commercial banks and other private institutions, thus increasing the monetary base
and lowering the yield on those financial assets. This is distinguished from the more
usual policy of buying or selling government bonds in order to keep interbank
interest rates at a specified target value. Expansionary monetary policy typically
involves the central bank buying short-term government bonds in order to lower
short-term market interest rates. However, when short-term interest rates are at or
close to zero, normal monetary policy can no longer lower interest rates.
Quantitative easing may then be used by monetary authorities to further stimulate
the economy by purchasing assets of longer maturity than short-term government
bonds, and thereby lowering longer-term interest rates further out on the yield
curve. Quantitative easing raises the prices of the financial assets bought, which
lowers their yield. There are two potential benefits. The first is that the banks get
cash in exchange for the gilts they sell back to the government and the increase in
the money supply leads to an increased volume of lending. The second is that
decreasing the supply of gilts pushes up their price. When gilt prices go up, gilt
yields go down and it is gilt yields that determine long-term interest rates for
overdrafts, some fixed-rate mortgage products and most business lending.

Directions for questions:Answer the questions based on the given passage
The Order of the Illuminati was an Enlightenment-age secret society founded by
university professor Adam Weishaupt on 1 May 1776, in Upper Bavaria, Germany.
The movement consisted of advocates of freethought,secularism, liberalism,
republicanism and gender equality, recruited in the German Masonic Lodges, who
sought to teach rationalism through mystery schools. In 1785, the order was
infiltrated, broken up and suppressed by the government agents of Charles
Theodore, Elector of Bavaria, in his pre-emptive campaign to neutralize the threat
of secret societies ever becoming hotbeds of conspiracies to overthrow the Bavarian
monarchy and its state religion, Roman Catholicism. In the late 18th century,
reactionary conspiracy theorists, such as Scottish physicist John Robison and French
Jesuit priest Augustin Barruel, began speculating that the Illuminati survived their
suppression and became the masterminds behind the French Revolution and the
Reign of Terror. During the 19th century, fear of an Illuminati conspiracy was a real
concern of European ruling classes, and their oppressive reactions to this unfounded
fear provoked in 1848 the very revolutions they sought to prevent. During the
interwar period of the 20th century, fascist propagandists, such as British revisionist
historian Nesta Helen Webster and American socialite Edith Starr Miller, not only
popularized the myth of an Illuminati conspiracy but claimed that it was a
subversive secret society which serves the Jewish elites that supposedly propped up
both finance capitalism and Soviet communism in order to divide and rule the
world. Central to some of the most widely known and elaborate conspiracy theories,
the Illuminati have been depicted as lurking in the shadows and pulling the strings
and levers of power in dozens of novels, movies, television shows, comics, video
games and music videos. The Illuminati play a central role in the plots of novels,
such as The Illuminatus! Trilogy by Robert Shea and Robert Anton Wilson; in
Foucaults Pendulum by Umberto Eco; and Angels and Demons by Dan Brown. A
mixture of historical fact, established conspiracy theory, or pure fiction, is used to
portray them.
There is no evidence that the original Bavarian Illuminati survived its suppression in
1785.However, writers such as Mark Dice, David Icke, Texe Marrs, Juri Lina and
Morgan Gricar have argued that the Bavarian Illuminati survived, possibly to this
day. Many of these theories propose that world events are being controlled and
manipulated by a secret society calling itself the Illuminati.
According to Webster and Mille
1) Illuminati conspiracy was a myth and it meant to serve the Jewish elites
2) Illuminati was a secret society meant to spread conspiracy in order to serve the
Jewish elites
3) Illuminati play a pivotal role in the plots of novels like Angels and Demons and
several others by Dan Brown.
4) Illuminati helped the Jewish elites who are purported to have supported finance
capitalism and Soviet communism

Read the passage and answer the questions asked below.
Historians have only recently begun to note the increase in demand for luxury
goods and services that took place in Eighteenth century England. McKendrick has
explored the Wedgwood firm?s remarkable success in marketing luxury pottery;
Plumb has written about the proliferation of provincial theatres, musical festivals,
and children?s toys and books. While the fact of this consumer revolution is hardly
in doubt, three key questions remain: Who were the consumers? What were their
motives? And what were the effects of the new demand for luxuries? An answer to
the first of these has been difficult to obtain. Although it has been possible to infer
from the goods and services actually produced what manufacturers and servicing
traders thought their customers wanted, only a study of relevant personal
documents written by actual consumers will provide a precise picture of who wanted
what. We still need to know how large this consumer market was and how far down
the social scale the consumer demand for luxury goods penetrated. With regard to
this last question, we might note in passing that Thompson, while rightly restoring
labouring people to the stage of eighteenth-century English history, has probably
exaggerated the opposition of these people to the inroads of capitalist consumerism
in general; for example, labouring people in eighteenth-century England readily
shifted from home-brewed beer to standardized beer produced by huge, heavily
capitalized urban breweries.
To answer the question of why consumers became so eager to buy, some historians
have pointed to the ability of manufacturers to advertise in a relatively uncensored
press. This, however, hardly seems a sufficient answer. McKendrick favours a Veblen
model of conspicuous consumption stimulated by competition for status. The
middling sort bought goods and services because they wanted to follow fashions set
by the rich. Again, we may wonder whether this explanation is sufficient. Do not
people enjoy buying things as a form of self-gratification? If so, consumerism could
be seen as a product of the rise of new concepts of individualism and materialism,
but not necessarily of the frenzy for conspicuous competition. Finally, what were the
consequences of this consumer demand for luxuries? McKendrick claims that it goes
a long way towards explaining the coming of the Industrial Revolution. But does it?
What, for example, does the production of high-quality pottery and toys have to do
with the development of iron manufacture or textile mills? It is perfectly possible to
have the psychology and reality of a consumer society without a heavy industrial
sector. That future exploration of these key questions is undoubtedly necessary
should not, however, diminish the force of the conclusion of recent studies: the
insatiable demand in eighteenth-century England for frivolous as well as useful
goods and services foreshadows our own world.
According to the passage, a Veblen model of conspicuous consumption has been
used to:
1) Investigate the extent of the demand for luxury goods among social classes in
eighteenth-century England
2) Classify the kinds of luxury goods desired by eighteenth- century consumers
3) explain the motivation of eighteenth-century consumers to buy luxury goods
4) Establish the extent to which the tastes of rich consumers were shaped by the
middle classes in eighteenth-century England

Read the passage and answer the questions asked below
The fight against corruption has intensified with the setting up of Transparency
International (TI) and its chapters in many countries across the world. A non-
governmental organization based in Berlin, transparency International was founded
in 1993 by a group of individuals who had become increasingly aware of the
devastating effects of corruption on human development and its distorting effect on
trade and investment. The group aims to stamp out corruption.
Corruption deepens poverty by distorting social and economic development and
disrupting the provision of essential public services. It also hurts democracy by
undermining principles of fair play and justice. Instead of? contracts being awarded
on the basis of fair competition relying on price, quality and innovation, they are
awarded as a result of competitive bribery. The consequences are dire. Investors
keep away and trade suffers. TI defines corruption as the use of public office for
private gain. Decisions are made not for public benefit but for private interests.
Costs incurred are high and prestigious projects are favoured over cost-efficient
development projects. Access to basic social and economic rights such as
education, medical care, adequate shelter and clean water are jeopardized. The
environment is threatened and human rights abuse flourishes. When corruption
increases, regimes become more secretive, less tolerant of dissent and more fearful
of the loss of power.
TI believes that the stamping out of corruption is not the responsibility of any one
agency but the responsibility of all the parties concerned. Every section of the
society must pitch in because corruption affects everyone, especially the poor. The
government, non-governmental organizations, members of society as well as the
local and international business communities must work together if corruption is to
be combated at all levels. As a first step, TI ropes in governments to set up
chapters in countries. The function of each national chapter is to seek consensus
and bring about systematic reform at both national and international levels. The
media is also brought into the picture as one of the primary aims of each chapter is
to raise public awareness. TI does not believe in broadcasting names or attacking
individuals but on building systems that combat corruption. TI publishes a quarterly
newsletter and an annual Corruption Perception Index. The index ranks countries
from the cleanest to the most corrupt, based on the perception of the international
business community, risk analysts and the general public. In 1998, some 85
countries participated and Denmark topped the list as the country seen to have the
least level of corruption. In 1999, 99 countries participated and again Denmark took
the top spot. Malaysia was ranked 29th and 32nd respectively over the 2 years. In
response to criticisms that the Corruption Perception Index had tended to put unfair
emphasis on developing countries, another ranking system was devised. This is the
Bribe Payers Index (BPI) which was introduced in 1999. This survey attempts to
gauge the tendency to bribe senior public officials by major corporations. The
survey ranks Sweden as the country least likely to offer bribes while China occupies
the bottom spot at number 19. Malaysia is ranked 15th. The Malaysian chapter of
Transparency International is known as the Kuala Lumpur Society for Transparency
and Integrity and at present is headed by Tunku Abdul Aziz. The society believes
that any attempt to redress the deteriorating scenario in Malaysia must be based on
a long- term plan. First, the public must be aware of their constitutional rights and
ensure that these rights are not taken away from them. Then they should assert
their right to good governance. To ensure that there is greater accountability in
both the public and private sectors, there is a need to institute more checks and
balances. Information should also not be withheld but made available to the public
so that they will be better informed to make decisions. To stamp out graft, there are
some who believe that the penalties and consequences that will befall the culprits if
found guilty of corruption should be made known to all. At the same time, a sense
of outrage must be developed in people so that they get angry at corruption
because it is about injustice, dishonesty and the impoverishment of many for the
benefit of a few. Nurturing such an attitude can only begin at home. If what make a
person incorruptible are the values he holds on to -- personal, ethical and religious
-- then the home exerts a mighty influence on inculcating these values in
individuals.
Graft must be stamped out. It is insidious and evil and in time to come, will affect
every level of society. It is time for people to stand up and act in a concerted
manner to rid society of this menace. Otherwise there is every possibility that
corruption becomes a way of life undermining justice and fair play and all that is
good in society.
How does corruption deepen poverty?
1) Cost-efficient development projects are not carried out
2) Money is channelled away to fund more prestigious projects.

TI defines corruption as the use of public office for private gain. Decisions are made
not for public benefit but for private interests. Costs incurred are high and

Read the passage below and answer the questions following it.
The Mumbai that we know about is a land of riches and dazzles. It is also the land
of teeming millions who struggle to make a living.
Mumbai is also the tinsel town, where people come with dreams and aspirations to
make it big. That is a familiar Mumbai. It is celebrated in speeches and advertised
on television and in magazines. It has the highest mass standard of living India has
ever known.
In the 1950?s this Mumbai worried about itself yet even its anxieties were products
of abundance. The title of a brilliant book was widely misinterpreted, and the
familiar Mumbai began to call itself the affluent society. There was introspection
about the Maine Lines and tail fins; there was discussion of the emotional suffering
taking place in the suburbs.
In all this, there was an implicit assumption that the basic grinding economic
problems had been solved in the metropolitan Mumbai. In this theory the city's
problems were no longer a matter of basic human needs, of food, shelter and
clothing. Now, they were seen as qualitative, the questions of learning to live
decently amid luxury.
While this discussion was carried on, there existed another Mumbai. In it dwelt
somewhere between 40,000,000 and 50,000,000 citizens of this land. They were
poor. They still are. To be sure, the other Mumbai is not impoverished in the same
sense as those poor nations where millions cling to hunger as a defence against
starvation. The city has escaped such extremes.
That does not change the fact the tens of millions of Mumbaites, at this very
moment, maimed in body and spirit, exist at levels beneath those necessary for
human decency. If these people are not starving, they are hungry and sometimes
fat with hunger, for that is what cheap foods do. They are without adequate housing
and education and medical care.
The clause, 'where millions cling to hunger as a defence against starvation' means
1) That the people of the poor nations foolishly accept hunger as a barrier against
starvation
2) That the people of the poor nations endure both hunger as a barrier against
starvation
3) That the people of the poor nations cannot escape either hunger or starvation
4) That the people of the poor nations can escape either hunger or starvation

Passage
For its new fridge,Whirlpool Corp. spent months investing a shelf with microscope
etching so it can hold a can of spilled soda. The technology is just one weapon
against a dirty kitchen secret.Most Americans clean their fridges only once or twice
a year.
Now appliances makers like Whirlpool,Viking Range Corp. and Sub-Zero Inc, are
tackling the messy fridge problem with a host of new features including souped-up
shelves,bacteria-killing devices and better lighting.General Electric Co., for
example,says it is rolling out new refrigerators in May with 10 lighting sources
inside instead of ots usual three-so proof that might be forgotten in a corner and
spoil will be easier to spot.The new GE models sell for $1,599 or $1,799 for
stainless steel.
7.
In Whirlpool?s 2005 refrigerator habits survey of 2,571 consumers,33% said they
don?t spend any time cleaning the refrigerator before grocery shoping.In order to
make room for items juxt purchased,27% reported shoving everything in and not
worrying about organization.
Whirlpool hopes that increasing the amount of storage space might help.The
company?s new shelves,to be released later this year,are 25% roomier than
previous models.But having more room won?t necessarily limit clutter.People often
don?t store things properly anyway.While the door shelves seem to be a perfect fit
for a carton of milk,suz-Zero says the area is the worst place to store dairy products
because it?s the warmest part of the fridge.

Passage:
Fasting is an act of homage to the majesty of appetite. So i think we should arrange
to give up our pleasures regularly-our food, our friends, our lovers-in order to
preserve their intensity, and the moment of coming back to them. For this the
moment that renews and refreshers both oneself and the thing one loves.
Sailors and travelers enjoyed this once, and so did hunters, I suppose.
Part of weariness of modern life may be that we live too much on top of each other,
and are entertained and fed too regularly.
Once we were separated by hunger both from our food and families, and then we
learned to value both.
The men went off hunting, and the dogs went with them, the women and children
waved goodbye. The caves was empty of men for days on end; nobody ate, or knew
what to do.
The women crouched by the fire, the wet smoke in their eyes; the children wailed;
everybody was hungry. The one night there were shouts and the barking of dogs
from the hills, and the men came back loaded with meat.
This was the great reunion, and everybody gorged themselves silly, and appetite
came into its own; the long-awaited meal became a feast to remember and an
almost sacred celebration of life.
Now we were we go off to the office and come home in the evenings to cheap
chicken and frozen peas. Very nice, but too much of it, too easy and regular, served
up without effort or wanting.
We eat, we are lucky, our faces are shining with fat, but we don't know the pleasure
of being hungry any more.
Too much of anything-too much music, entertainment, happy snacks, or time spent
with one's friends-creates a kind of importance of living by which one can no longer
hear, or taste, or see, or love, or remember.
Life is short and precious, and appetite is short life we should respect the divinity of
appetite, and keep it eager and not too much blunted.
Select the correct answer option based on the passage.
What are the benefits of fasting?
1) It is an act against the drawbacks of appetite.
2) It brings joy in eating, and one learns to appreciate food.
3) It is the method to understand how civilization envolved.
4) It is a punishment for the greedy unkind.

Passage:
At the end of the 19th century. India's maharajahs discovered a Parisian designer
called Louis Vuitton and flooded his small factory with orders for custom-made
Rolls-Royce interiors, leather picnic hampers and modish polo-club bags.
But after independence, when India's princes lost much of their wealth, the orders
dried up. Then in 2002 LVMH, the world's largest luxury-goods group, made a
triumphant return to India, opening a boutique in Delhi and another in Mumbai in
2004.
Its target was the new breed of maharajah produced by India's liberalized
economy:flush, flash and growing in number.
Other purveyors of opulence followed, from Chanel to Bulgari. In recent months a
multitude of swanky brands have announced plans to set up shop in india, including
Dolce & Gabbana, Herms, Jimmy Choo and Gucci.
Though only a tiny fraction of the total population will spend on these brands but it
is India's future prospects that have excited the luxury behemoths.
India has fewer than 100,000 dollar millionaires among its one billion-plus
population, according to American Express, a financial-services firm. It predicts that
this number will grow by 12.8% a year for the next three years.
The longer-term asceridance of India's middle class, meanwhile has been charted
by the MCKinsery Global Institute, which predicts that average incomes will have
tripled by 2025, lifting nearly 300m Indians out of poverty and causing the middle
class to grow more than tenfold to 583m.

Demand for all kinds of consumer products is about to surge, in short. And although
restrictions on foreign investment prevent retail giants such as Wal-Mart and Tesco
from entering India directly, different rules apply to companies that sell their own
products under a singled brand, as luxury-goods firms tend to.
Since January 2006 they have been allowed to take up to 51% in Indian joint
ventures. India is also an attractive market for luxury goods because, unlike China,
it does not have a flourishing counterfeit industry.Credit is becoming more easily
available.
Barriers to growth remain, however. High import duties make luxury goods
expensive.Rich Indians tend to travel widely and may simply buy elsewhere.
Finding suitable retail space is also proving a headache. So far most designer
boutiques are situated in five star hotels.
What is Author most likely to agree to?
1) The current number of dollar millionaries in india is very high.

Muslims, and Sikhs caught on the wrong side of the border. In the next few months,
some twelve million people would be uprooted and as many as a million murdered.
But on that night in mid-August the bloodbath?and the fuller consequences of hasty
imperial retreat?still lay in the future, and the Mountbatten probably felt they had
earned their evening?s entertainment.
Mountbatten, the last viceroy of India, had arrived in New Delhi in March, 1947,
charged with an almost impossible task. Irrevocably enfeebled by the Second World
War, the British belatedly realized that they had to leave the subcontinent, which
had spiraled out of their control through the nineteen-forties. But plans for brisk
disengagement ignored messy realities on the ground. Mountbatten had a clear
remit to transfer power to the Indians within fifteen months. Leaving India to God,
or anarchy, as Mohandas Gandhi, the foremost Indian leader, exhorted, wasn?t a
political option, however tempting. Mountbatten had to work hard to figure out how
and to whom power was to be transferred.
The dominant political party, the Congress Party, took inspiration from Gandhi in
claiming to be a secular organization, representing all four hundred million Indians.
But many Muslim politicians saw it as a party of upper-caste Hindus and demanded
a separate homeland for their hundred million co-religionists, who were
intermingled with non-Muslim populations across the subcontinent?s villages,
towns, and cities. Eventually, as in Palestine, the British saw partition along
religious lines as the quickest way to the exit. But sectarian riots in Punjab and
Bengal dimmed hopes for a quick and dignified British withdrawal, and boded ill for
India?s assumption of power. Not surprisingly, there were some notable absences at
the Independence Day celebrations in New Delhi on August 15th. Gandhi,
denouncing freedom from imperial rule as a ?wooden loaf,? had remained in
Calcutta, trying, with the force of his moral authority, to stop Hindus and Muslims
from killing each other. His great rival Mohammed Ali Jinnah, who had fought
bitterly for a separate homeland for Indian Muslims, was in Karachi, trying to hold
together the precarious nation-state of Pakistan.

Nevertheless, the significance of the occasion was not lost on many. While the
Mountbattens were sitting down to their Bob Hope movie, India?s constituent
assembly was convening in New Delhi. The moment demanded grandiloquence, and
Jawaharlal Nehru, Gandhi?s closest disciple and soon to be India?s first Prime
Minister, provided it. ?Long years ago, we made a tryst with destiny,? he said. ?At
the stroke of the midnight hour, while the world sleeps, India will awaken to life and
freedom. A moment comes, which comes but rarely in history, when we step out
from the old to the new, when an age ends, and when the soul of a nation, long
suppressed, finds utterance.?
Posterity has enshrined this speech, as Nehru clearly intended. But today his quaint
phrase ?tryst with destiny? resonates ominously, so enduring have been the political
and psychological scars of partition. The souls of the two new nation-states
immediately found utterance in brutal enmity. In Punjab, armed vigilante groups,
organized along religious lines and incited by local politicians, murdered countless
people, abducting and raping thousands of women. Soon, India and Pakistan were
fighting a war?the first of three?over the disputed territory of Kashmir. Gandhi,
reduced to despair by the seemingly endless cycle of retaliatory mass murders and
displacement, was shot dead in January, 1948, by a Hindu extremist who believed
that the father of the Indian nation was too soft on Muslims. Jinnah, racked with
tuberculosis and overwork, died a few months later, his dream of a secular Pakistan
apparently buried with him.

Give people power and discretion, and whether they are grand viziers or border
guards, some will use their position to enrich themselves. The problem can be big
enough to hold back a country's development. One study has shown that bribes
account for 8% of the total cost of running a business in Uganda. Another found
that corruption boosted the price of hospital supplies in Buenos Aires by 15%. Paul
Wolfowitz, the head of the World Bank, is devoting special efforts during his
presidency there to a drive against corruption. GIVE people power and discretion,

running a business in Uganda. Another found that corruption boosted the price of
hospital supplies in Buenos Aires by 15%. Paul Wolfowitz, the head of the World
Bank, is devoting special efforts during his presidency there to a drive against
corruption.
For most people in the world, though, the worry is not that corruption may slow
down their country's GDP growth. It is that their daily lives are pervaded by endless
hassles, big and small. And for all the evidence that some cultures suffer endemic
corruption while others are relatively clean, attitudes towards corruption, and even
the language describing bribery, is remarkably similar around the world.
In a testament to most people's basic decency, bribe-takers and bribe-payers have
developed an elaborate theatre of dissimulation. This is not just to avoid detection.
Even in countries where corruption is so common as to be unremarkable and
unprosecutable?and even when the transaction happens far from snooping eyes?a
bribe is almost always dressed up as some other kind of exchange. Though most of
the world is plagued by corruption, even serial offenders try to conceal it.
One manifestation of this is linguistic. Surprisingly few people say: ?You are going
to have to pay me if you want to get that done.? Instead, they use a wide variety of
euphemisms. One type is quasi-official terminology. The first bribe paid by your
correspondent, in Ukraine in 1998, went to two policemen so they would let him
board a train leaving the country. On the train into Ukraine, the customs officer had
absconded with a form that is needed again later to leave the country. The
policemen at the station kindly explained that there was a shtraf, a ?fine? that could
be paid instead of producing the document. The policemen let him off with the
minimum shtraf of 50 hryvnia ($25).
A second type of euphemism dresses up a dodgy payment as a friendly favour done
by the bribe-payer. There is plenty of creative scope. Nigerian policemen are known
to ask for ?a little something for the weekend?. A North African term is ?un petit
cadeau?, a little gift. Mexican traffic police will suggest that you buy them a
refresco, a soft drink, as will Angolan and Mozambican petty officials, who call it a
gazoso in Portuguese. A businessman in Iraq told Reuters that although corruption
there is quite overt, officials still insist on being given a ?good coffee?
Double meaning can help soothe the awkwardness of bribe-paying. Baksheesh,
originally a Persian word now found in many countries of the Middle East, can mean
?tip?, ?alms? and ?bribe?. Swahili-speakers can take advantage of another
ambiguous term. In Kenya a machine-gun-wielding guard suggested to a terrified
Canadian aid worker: ?Perhaps you would like to discuss this over tea?? The young
Canadian was relieved: the difficulty could be resolved with some chai, which
means both ?tea? and ?bribe?.
Along with the obscurantist language, bribe-taking culture around the world often
involves the avoidance of physically handing the money from one person to another.
One obvious reason is to avoid detection, which is why bribes are known as ?
envelopes? in countries from China to Greece. But avoidance of a direct hand-over
is common even where there is no chance of detection. There will always be some
officials who will take money right from a bribe-payer's hands, but most seem to
prefer to find some way to hide the money from view. A bribe to a border guard
may be folded into a passport. A sweetener to a traffic cop is often placed in the
ticket-book that is handed to the driver. Parag Khanna, who is writing a book about
countries on the edge of the rich world that are trying to get rich themselves,
describes a bribe-taker he spotted in Georgia who he was sure was a rookie. Why?
The scrawny young soldier, forgoing any subtleties, merely rubbed his fingers
together in an age-old gesture. Rich Westerners may not think of their societies as
plagued by corruption. But the definition of bribery clearly differs from person to
person. A New Yorker might pity the third-world businessman who must pay bribes
just to keep his shop open. But the same New Yorker would not think twice about
slipping the maitre d' $50 to sneak into a nice restaurant without a reservation.
Poor people the world over are most infuriated by the casual corruption of the elites
rather than by the underpaid, tip seeking soldier or functionary. What could be the

Since the late 1970s when the technology for sex determination first came into
being, sex selective abortion has unleashed a saga of horror. Experts are calling it ?
Sanitised Barbarism?. Demographic trends indicate the country is fast heading
towards a million foetuses aborted each year.
Although foetal sex determination and sex selection is an offence in India, the
practice is rampant. Private clinics with ultrasound machines are doing brisk
business. Everywhere, people are paying to know the sex of the unborn child, and
paying more to abort the female child. The technology has reached even remote
places through mobile clinics. Dr. Puneet Bedi obstetrician and specialist in foetal
medicine, says these days he hardly sees a family with two daughters. People are
getting the sex determination even for the first child, he says.
In the 1991 census showed that two districts had a child sex ratio (number of girls
per thousand boys) less than 850; by 2001 it was 51 districts. Child rights activist
Dr. Sabu George says foeticide is the most extreme form of violence against
women. ?Today a girl is several times more likely to be eliminated before birth than
die of various causes during the first year. Nature intended the womb to be a safe
space. Today Doctors have made it the most unsafe space for the female child, ?he
says?. He believes that Doctors must be held responsible ? ?They have aggressively
promoted the misuse of technology and legitimised foeticide.?
Akhila Sivadas, Centre for Advocacy and Research, Delhi, feels that the PCPNDT Act
(Pre-Conception and Pre-Natal Diagnostic Techniques ? Regulation and Prevention
of Misuse) is very well conceived and easy to use. The need of the hour is the legal
literacy to ensure the law is implemented. ?The demand and supply debate has
been going on for some time. Doctors say there is a social demand and they are
fulfilling it. They argue that social attitudes must change. However, in this case
supply fuels demand. Technology will have to be regulated. Technology in the hands
of greedy, vested interests cannot be neutral. There is a law to prevent misuse and
we must be able to use it,? she says.
On the Demands side, experts such as Dr. Agnihotri argue that women?s
participation in workforce, having disposable incomes and making a contribution to
the larger society will make a difference to how women are seen. Youth icons and
role models such as Sania Mirza are making an impact, he says.
Others feel there needs to be widespread visible contempt and anger in society
against this ?Genocide?- ?the kind we saw against the Nithari killings,? says Dr
Bedi. ?Today nobody can say that female foeticide is not their problem.? Time we all
did our bit to help save the girl child. Time?s running out.

Read the passage. Then answer the questions below.
The Battle of Chancellorsville, one of the most famous battles of the Civil War, took
place in Virginia in the spring of 1863. For months, the two armies had been staked
out on opposite banks of a narrow river. The Confederate troops were led by
perhaps the most revered military tactician in American history, General Robert E.
Lee. The Union soldiers were led by "Fighting" Joe Hooker.
In appearance, personality, and lifestyle, these men were nearly perfect opposites.
Lee, an older man in poor health with a gray beard, had a somber, measured
demeanor. Hooker was a blond, strapping young man whose vanity over his
appearance was but one aspect of his egotism. Whereas Lee was devout and
principled, Hooker was known for his rollicking enjoyment of both women and
whiskey.
Despite the fact that the Confederacy had won the last four major battles and the
Union soldiers were famished, exhausted, and demoralized, Hooker proclaimed, "My
plans are perfect. And when I start to carry them out, may God have mercy on
Bobby Lee, for I shall have none." Why, aside from a propensity for narcissism, was
Hooker so confident?
Hooker had used spies, analysts, and even hot air balloons to compile a vast
amount of intelligence about Lee?s army. He had discerned, for example, that Lee
had only 61,000 men to Hooker?s own 134,000. Buoyed by his superior numbers,
Hooker covertly moved 70,000 of his men fifteen miles up and across the river, and
then ordered them to sneak back down to position themselves behind Lee?s army.
In effect, Hooker had cut off the Confederate soldiers in front and behind. They
were trapped. Satisfied with his advantage, Hooker became convinced that Lee?s
only option was to retreat to Richmond, thus assuring a Union victory.
Yet Lee, despite his disadvantages of both numbers and position, did not retreat.
Instead, he moved his troops into position to attack. Union soldiers who tried to
warn Hooker that Lee was on the offensive were dismissed as cowards. Having
become convinced that Lee had no choice but to retreat, Hooker began to ignore
reality. When Lee?s army attacked the Union soldiers at 5:00 p.m., they were
eating supper, completely unprepared for battle. They abandoned their rifles and
fled as Lee?s troops came shrieking out of the brush, bayonets drawn. Against all
odds, Lee won the Battle of Chancellorsville, and Hooker?s forces withdrew in
defeat.

none. The author most likely includes this quote in order to
1) demonstrate Hooker?s belief in his own infallibility
2) provide an example of the way language has changed since 1863

Read the passage and answer the question:
Democratic institutions are devices for reconciling social order with individual
freedom and initiative, and for making the immediate power of a country's rulers
subject to the ultimate power of the ruled. The fact that, in Western Europe 5 and
America, these devices have worked, all things considered, not too badly is proof
enough that the eighteenth century optimists were not entirely wrong. Given a fair
chance, I repeat; for the fair chance is an indispensable prerequisite No people that
pass abruptly from a state of subservience 10 under the rule of a despot to the
completely unfamiliar state of political independence can be said to have a fair
chance of being able to govern itself democratically. Liberalism flourishes in an
atmosphere of prosperity and declines as declining prosperity makes it necessary
for the government 15 to intervene ever more frequently and drastically in the
affairs of its subjects. Over-population and over-organization are two conditions
which ... deprive a society of a fair chance of making democratic institutions work
effectively. We see, then, that there are certain 20 historical, economic,
demographic and technological conditions which make it very hard for Jefferson's
rational animals, endowed by nature with inalienable rights and an innate sense of
justice, to exercise their reason, claim their rights and act justly within a
democratically organized 25 society. We in the West have been supremely fortunate
in having been given a fair chance of making the great experiment in self-
government. Unfortunately, it now looks as though, owing to recent changes in our
circumstances, this infinitely precious fair chance were being, little by little, taken

In regard to propaganda the early advocates of universal literacy and a free press
envisaged only two possibilities:the propaganda might be true, or it might be false.
They did not foresee what in fact has happened, above all in our Western capitalist
democracies - the development of a vast mass communications industry, concerned
in the main neither with the true nor the false, but with the unreal, the more or less
totally irrelevant. In a word, they failed to take into account man's almost infinite
appetite for distractions.In the past most people never got a chance of fully
satisfying this appetite. They might long for distractions,but the distractions were
not provided. Christmas came but once a year, feasts were "solemn and rare," there
were few readers and very little to read, and the nearest approach to a
neighborhood movie theater was the parish church, where the performances,
though infrequent, were somewhat monotonous.For conditions even remotely
comparable to those now prevailing we must return to imperial Rome, where the
populace was kept in good humor by frequent, gratuitous doses of many kinds of
entertainment - from poetical dramas to gladiatorial fights,from recitations of Virgil
to all-out boxing, from concerts to military reviews and public executions.< br> But
even in Rome there was nothing like the non-stop distraction now provided by
newspapers and magazines, by radio, television and the cinema. In Brave New
World non-stop distractions of the most fascinating nature (the feelies, orgy-porgy,
centrifugal bumble puppy) are deliberately used as instruments of policy,for the
purpose of preventing people from paying too much attention to the realities of the
social and political situation. The other world of religion is different from the other
world of entertainment; but they resemble one another in being most decidedly
"not of this world." Both are distractions and, if lived in too continuously, both can
become, in Marx's phrase, "the opium of the people" and so a threat to freedom.
Only the vigilant can maintain their liberties, and only those who are constantly and
intelligently on the spot can hope to govern themselves effectively by democratic
procedures. A society, most of whose members spend a great part of their time, not
on the spot, not here and now and in the calculable future, but somewhere else, in
the irrelevant other worlds of sport and soap opera, of mythology and metaphysical
fantasy, will find it hard to resist the encroachments of those who would manipulate
and control it.
In their propaganda today's dictators rely for the most part on repetition,
suppression and rationalization - the repetition of catchwords which they wish to be
accepted as true, the suppression of facts which they wish to be ignored,the arousal
and rationalization of passions which may be used in the interests of the Party or
the State. As the art and science of manipulation come to be better understood,the
dictators of the future will doubtless learn to combine these techniques with the
non-stop distractions which, in the West, are now threatening to drown in a sea of
irrelevance the rational propaganda essential to the maintenance of individual
liberty and the survival of democratic institutions.
By ?intelligently on the spot? the author apparently means
1) alert to the dangers of propaganda
2) in a particular society at a particular time
3) in a specific time and place
4) conscious of political and social realities

The pioneers of the teaching of science imagined that its introduction into education
would remove the conventionality,artificiality, and backward-lookingness which were
characteristic;of classical studies, but they were gravely disappointed. So, too, in
their time had the humanists thought that the study of the classical authors in the
original would banish at once the dull pedantry and superstition of mediaeval
scholasticism. The professional schoolmaster was a match for both of them, and has
almost managed to make the understanding of chemical reactions as dull and as
dogmatic an affair as the reading of Virgil's Aeneid.The chief claim for the use of
science in education is that it teaches a child something about the actual universe in
which he is living, in making him acquainted with the results of scientific discovery,
and at the same time teaches him how to think logically and inductively by studying
scientific method.
A certain limited success has been reached in the first of these aims, but practically
none at all in the second. Those privileged members of the community who have
been through a secondary or public school education may be expected to know
something about the elementary physics and chemistry of a hundred years ago, but
they probably know hardly more than any bright boy can pick up from an interest in
wireless or scientific hobbies out of school hours.As to the learning of scientific
method, the whole thing is palpably a farce. Actually, for the convenience of
teachers and the requirements of the examination system, it is necessary that the
pupils not only do not learn scientific method but learn precisely the reverse, that
is, to believe exactly what they are told and to reproduce it when asked, whether it
seems nonsense to them or not. The way in which educated people respond to such
quackeries as spiritualism or astrology, not to say more dangerous ones such as
racial theories or currency myths, shows that fifty years of education in the method
of science in Britain or Germany has produced no visible effect whatever.
The only way of learning the method of science is the long and bitter way of
personal experience, and, until the educational or social systems are altered to
make this possible, the best we can expect is the production of a minority of people
who are able to acquire some of the techniques of science and a still smaller
minority who are able to use and develop them.

Read the passage and answer the questions that follow on the basis of the
information provided in the passage.
Outside, the rain continued to run down the screened windows of Mrs. Sennett's
little Cape Cod cottage. The long weeds and grass that composed the front yard
dripped against the blurred background of the bay, where the water was almost the
color of the grass. Mrs. Sennett's five charges were vigorously playing house in the
dining room. (In the wintertime, Mrs. Sennett was housekeeper for a Mr. Curley, in
Boston, and during the summers the Curley children boarded with her on the
Cape.) My expression must have changed. " Are those children making too much
noise?" Mrs. Sennett demanded, a sort of wave going over her that might mark the
beginning of her getting up out of her chair. I shook my head no, and gave her a
little push on the shoulder to keep her seated. Mrs. Sennett was almost stone-deaf
and had been for a long time, but she could read lips. You could talk to her without
making any sound yourself, if you wanted to, and she more than kept up her side of
the conversation in a loud, rusty voice that dropped weirdly every now and then
into a whisper. She adored talking. To look at Mrs. Sennett made me think of
eighteenth-century England and its literary figures. Her hair must have been sadly
thin, because she always wore, indoors and out, either a hat or a sort of turban,
and sometimes she wore both. The rims of her eyes were dark; she looked very ill.
Mrs. Sennett and I continued talking. She said she really didn't think she'd stay with
the children another winter. Their father wanted her to, but it was too much for her.
She wanted to stay right here in the cottage. The afternoon was getting along, and
I finally left because I knew that at four o'clock Mrs. Sennett's "sit down" was over
and she started to get supper. At six o'clock, from my nearby cottage, I saw
Theresa coming through the rain with a shawl over her head. She was bringing me
a six-inchsquare piece of spice cake , still hot from the oven and kept warm
between two soup plates. A few days later I learned from the twins, who brought
over gifts of firewood and blackberries, that their father was coming the next
morning, bringing their aunt and her husband and their cousin. Mrs. Sennett had
promised to take them all on a picnic at the pond some pleasant day. On the fourth
day of their visit, Xavier arrived with a note. It was from Mrs. Sennett, written in
blue ink, in a large, serene, ornamented hand, on linenfinish paper:
Tomorrow is the last day Mr. Curley has and the Children all wanted the Picnic so
much. The Men can walk to the Pond but it is too far for the Children. I see your
Friend has a car and I hate to ask this but could you possibly drive us to the Pond
tomorrow morning? . . .Very sincerely yours, Carmen Sennett After the picnic, Mrs.
Sennett's presents to me were numberless. It was almost time for the children to
go back to school in South Boston. Mrs. Sennett insisted that she was not going;
their father was coming down again to get them and she was just going to stay. He
would have to get another housekeeper. She said this over and over to me, loudly,
and her turbans and kerchiefs grew more and more distrait. One evening, Mary
came to call on me and we sat on an old table in the back yard to watch the sunset.
"Papa came today, " she said, "and we've got to go back day after tomorrow. ""Is
Mrs. Sennett going to stay here? ""She said at supper she was. She said this time
she really was, because she'd said that last year and came back, but now she
means it ."I said, "Oh dear," scarcely knowing which side I was on. "It was awful at
supper. I cried and cried." "Did Theresa cry?" "Oh, we all cried. Papa cried, too. We
always do." "But don't you think Mrs. Sennett needs a rest?" "Yes, but I think she'll
come, though. Papa told her he'd cry every single night at supper if she didn't, and
then we all did." The next day I heard that Mrs. Sennett was going back with them
just to " help settle." She came over the following morning to say goodbye,
supported by all five children. She was wearing her traveling hat of black satin and
black straw, with sequins. High and somber, above her ravaged face, it had quite a
Spanishgrandee air. "This isn't really goodbye," she said. "I'll be backas soon as I
get these bad ,noisy children off my hands." But the children hung on to her skirt
and tugged at her sleeves, shaking their heads frantically, silently saying, "No! No!
No!" to her with their puckered-up mouths
What is the main insight suggested by the conversation in last paragraph?
1) The Curley family cries to manipulate Mrs. Sennett into doing what they want.
2) The narrator regrets that she is not going to Boston and is a little jealous of Mrs.
Sennett.
3) Mrs. Sennett is happy to leave the Curley family because they are always
whining and crying.
4) Mrs. Sennett intends to return to the Cape soon because she has discovered that
they have been manipulating and taking advantage of her.

Given the evidence provided throughout the passage, the children probably silently
mouth the word "no" because:
1) Mrs. Sennett has just called them bad, noisy children, and they are defending
themselves.
2) they do not want to leave the Cape before the summer is over and are
protesting.
3) they are letting the narrator know that Mrs. Sennett is thinking about returning

From the 197 million square miles, which make up the surface of the globe, 71 per
cent is covered by the interconnecting bodies of marine water; the Pacific Ocean
alone covers half the Earth and averages near 14,000 feet in depth. The portions
which rise above sea level are the continents-Eurasia, Africa; North America, South
America, Australia, and Antarctica. The submerged borders of the continental
masses are the continental shelves, beyond which lie the deep-sea basins.
The ocean are deepest not in the center but in some elongated furrows, or long
narrow troughs, called deeps. These profound troughs have a peripheral
arrangement, notably around the borders of the pacific and Indian oceans. The
position of the deeps, like the highest mountains, are of recent origin, since
otherwise they would have been filled with waste from the lands. This is further
strengthened by the observation that the deeps are quite often, where world-
shaking earthquakes occur. To cite an example, the "tidal wave" that in April, 1946,
caused widespread destruction along Pacific coasts resulted from a strong
earthquake on the floor of the Aleutian Deep.
The topography of the ocean floors is none too well known, since in great areas the
available soundings are hundreds or even thousands of miles apart. However, the
floor of the Atlantic is becoming fairly well known as a result of special surveys
since 1920. A broad, well-defined ridge-the Mid-Atlantic ridgeruns north and south
between Africa and the two Americas and numerous other major irregularities
diversify the Atlantic floor. Closely spaced soundings show that many parts of the
oceanic floors are as rugged as mountainous regions of the continents. Use of the
recently perfected method of submarine topography. During world war II great
strides were made in mapping submarine surfaces, particularly in many parts of the
vast Pacific basin
Most of the continents stand on an average of 2870 feet above sea level. North
America averages 2300 feet; Europe averages only 1150 feet; and Asia, the highest
of the larger continental subdivisions, averages 3200 feet. Mount Everest, which is
the highest point in the globe, is 29,000 feet above the sea; and as the greatest
known depth in the sea is over 35,000 feet, the maximum relief (that is, the
difference in altitude between the lowest and highest points) exceeds 64,000 feet,
or exceeds 12 miles. The continental masses and the deep-sea basins are relief
features of the first order; the deeps, ridges, and volcanic cones that diversify the
sea floor, as well as the plains, plateaus, and mountains of the continents, are relief
features of the second order. The lands are unendingly subject to a complex of
activities summarized in the term erosion, which first sculptures them in great
detail and then tends to reduce them ultimately to sea level. The modeling of the
landscape by weather, running water, and other agents is apparent to the keenly
observant eye and causes thinking people to speculate on what must be the final
result of the ceaseless wearing down of the lands. Much before there was any
recognizable science as geology, Shakespeare wrote "the revolution of the times
makes mountains level."

information provided in the passage
One of the most dangerous drugs for pregnant women to consume is alcohol.
Because alcohol is delivered quickly into the blood and passes quickly into the
tissues and membranes, the human fetus is particularly vulnerable to its effects. In
fact, the negative effects on a fetus are so pronounced that babies born after
exposure to alcohol are said to be suffering from fetal alcohol syndrome. As a
pregnant woman drinks alcohol, the alcohol is passed into her her bloodstream
almost simultaneously. Moreover, because the bloodstream of the fetus is
inextricably tied to that of the mother, the alcohol passes directly into the
bloodstream of the fetus as well. And, what is more, the concentration of alcohol in
the fetus is exactly the same as in the mother. For the mother, this concentration is
not a problem because her liver can remove one ounce of alcohol from her system
per hour. However, the fetus's liver is not completely developed (how developed it is
depends on its stage of development). The rate at which it is able to eliminate the
alcohol from the blood of the fetus is much slower. Eventually, the alcohol will be
returned to the mother\'s system by passing across the placenta, but this process is
slow. By the time this takes place, major neurological damage may have already
occurred. Research has shown that as little as one drink of alcohol can produce
significant, irreversible damage to the fetus. Babies born after exposure to alcohol

The establishment of the third Reich influenced events in American history by
starting a chain of events which culminated in war between Germany and the
United States. The complete destruction of democracy, the persecution of laws, the
war on religion, the cruelty and barbarism of the Nazis and especially, the plans of
Germany and her allies, Italy and Japan, for world conquest caused great
indignation in this country and brought on fear of another world war. While speaking
out against Hitler\'s atrocities, the American profile generally favored isolationist
policies, and neutrality. The neutrality acts of 1935 and 1936 prohibited trade with
any belligerents or loans to them. In 1937 the president was empowered to declare
an arms embargo in wars between nations at his discretion American opinion began
to change somewhat after President Roosevelt\'s quarantine the aggressor speech
at Chicago (1937) in which he severely criticized Hitler\'s policies. Germany's
seizure of Austria and Munich pact for the partition of Czechoslovakia (1938) also
around the American people. The conquest of Czechoslovakia in March 1939 was
another rude awakening to the menace of the third Reich. In August, 1939, came
the shock of the Nazi - Soviet pact and in September the attack on Poland and the
outbreak of European war. The United States attempt to maintain neutrality in spite
of sympathy for the democracies arranged against the Third Reich. The Neutrality
act of 1939 repeated the arms embargo and permitted 'cash' and 'carry' exports of
arms to belligerent nations. A strong national defense program was begun. A draft
act was passed (1940) to strengthen the military services. A Lend - Lease Act
(1940) authorized the president to sell, exchange or lend materials to any county
deemed necessary by him for the defence of the United States. Help was given to
Britain territory in the western Hemisphere. In August 1941, President Roosevelt
and prime minister Churchill met and issued the Atlantic Charter which proclaimed
the kind of a world which should be established after the war. In December 1941,
Japan launched the unprovoked attack on the United States at Pearl harbour,
immediately thereafter Germany declared war on the United States.

Directions for Questions : Read the passage and answer the questions that follow
on the basis of the information provided in the passage. For years now, critics of
United States cities have pictured city centers as empty places, avoid of life.
Fortunately, a recent trend in urban development is making some cities lively. One
example of this trend is Baltimore's Harbor place, a stunning waterfront complex of
one hundred shops set in glass pavilions. Not long ago, Baltimore's dockland 5 area,
like clock areas in other older cities, was a collection of abandoned warehouses.
Now the area is expected to add thirty million dollars to Baltimore's annual tax base
and to draw home buyers back to the city and away from the nearby Washington,
DC area. Baltimore has long been a pioneer in urban renewal, not only building
from scratch, as at Harbor place, but preserving and restoring buildings throughout
the town center. Although 10 few cities show this much care for their old residential
areas, the officials of many cities are starting to believe that central districts ought
to be efficiently attractive to draw permanent residents to them. Several other cities
built around water are also exploiting their easily accessible waterfront areas. San
Francisco, in its Ghirardelli Square project, converted an old factory at the edge of
the bay into a labyrinth of boutiques. St. Louis 15 Savannah, Louisville, and
Portland all have "riverside malls" in progress, while Boston's Quincy Market also on
the waterfront , is expected to bring in 1.5 million dollars in city taxes annually. This
trend reflects an important change in social attitudes in the United States, brought
on by new economic factors. In the 1960's, the availability of low-cost housing
beyond 20 city limits caused many cities in the east and Midwest to lose residents,
thus leaving city centers relatively empty of life. In the southwest a different
phenomenon ,the relentless impetus of cities like TU Houston, and Phoenix to
extend their orders across the desert, has had much the same effect: centers full of
skyscrapers and streets that are empty after five o'clock ,for years it seemed that
the "ideal" home was tranquil suburban 25 residence. But recently, the rise in gas
prices has made long automobile journeys to work less tolerable. Trips of fifty miles
are not uncommon for the suburban commuter. In addition, suburban property
taxes have risen sharply as utility lines are stretched ever farther from central
sources.30 The rise in house prices has increased the differential between city and
suburban property; now it is generally cheaper to buy an old urban house than a
newer suburban one. Young working people, usually without children, are the most
likely purchasers of urban homes. Following these people are huge projects
including apartments, offices, and shops, all embracing the increasingly attractive
belief that people should live, work, and shop within 35 as little traveling distance
as possible. The author suggests that, in the United States, southwestern cities can
be distinguished from eastern cities by the fact that a)Cities in the southwest have
declined at a different rate than have cities in the east
b)Officials in southwestern cities have shown less interest in revitalizing their city
centers than have officials in eastern cities.

c)Southwestern cities have had more success than have eastern cities in attracting
new home buyers.
d)The centers of southwestern cities have lost residents for different reasons than
have the centers of eastern cities

After his father's death, writer Laurence Yep returned to San Francisco to look for
the apartment house where his family had lived, which also housed their grocery
store. It had been replaced by a two-story parking garage for a nearby college.
There were trees growing where the store door had been. I had to look at the street
signs on the corner to make sure I was in the right spot. Behind the trees was a
door of solid metal painted a battleship gray Stretching to either side were concrete
walls with metal grates bolted over the openings in the sides. The upper story of
the garage was open to the air but through the grates I could look into the lower
level. The gray, oil- stained concrete spread onward endlessly, having replaced the
red cement floor of our store. Lines marked parking places where my parents had
laid wooden planks to ease the ache and chill on their feet. Where the old-fashioned
glass store counter had been was a row of cars. I looked past the steel I-beams
that formed the columns and ceiling of the garage, peering through the dimness in
an attempt to locate where my father's garden had been; but there was only an
endless stretch of cars within the painted stalls. We called it the garden though that
was stretching the definition of the word because it was only a small, narrow
cement courtyard on the north side of our apartment house. There was only a brief
time during the day when the sun could reach the tiny courtyard; but fuchsia
bushes, which loved the shade, grew as tall as trees from the dirt plot there. Next
to it my father had fashioned shelves from old hundred-pound rice cans and planks;
and on these makeshift shelves he had his miniature flower patches growing in old
soda pop crates from which he had removed the wooden dividers. He would go out
periodically to a wholesale nursery by the beach and load the car with boxes full of
little flowers and seedlings which he would lovingly transplant in his shadowy
garden. If you compared our crude little garden to your own backyards, you would
probably laugh; and yet the cats in the neighbourhood loved my father's garden
almost as much as he did--to his great dismay The cats loved to roll among the
flowers, crushing what were just about the only green growing things in the area.
Other times, they ate them-perhaps as a source of greens. Whatever the case, my
father could have done without their destructive displays of appreciation. I don't
know where my father came by his love of growing things. He had come to San
Francisco as a boy and, except for a brief time spent picking fruit, had lived most of
his life among cement, brick, and asphalt. I hadn't thought of my father's garden in
years; and yet it was the surest symbol of my father. Somehow he could persuade
flowers to grow within the old, yellow soda pop crates though the sun seldom
touched them; and he could coax green shoots out of what seemed like lifeless
sticks. His was the gift of renewal. However, though I stared and stared, I could not
quite figure out where it had been. Everything looked the same; more concrete and
more cars. Store, home and garden had all been torn down and replaced by
something as cold, massive and impersonal as a prison. Even if I could have gone
through the gate, there was nothing for me inside there. If I wanted to return to
that lost garden, I would have to go back into my own memories. Award-winning
author Laurence Yep did return to his father's garden in his memories. In 1991 he
published The Lost Garden an autobiography in which he tells of growing up in San
Francisco and of coming to use his writing to celebrate his family and his ethnic
heritage.
The author is searching for something as he looks through the window of a parking

For a period of more than two centuries palaeontologists have been intrigued by the
fossilized remains of pterosaurs, the first flying vertebrates. The issues, which
puzzle them, are how these heavy creatures, having a wingspan of about 8-12
meters managed the various problems associated with powered flight and whether
these creatures were reptiles or birds. Perhaps the least controversial assertion
about the pterosaurs is that they were reptiles. Their skulls, pelvises, and hind feet
are reptilian. The anatomy of their wings suggests that they did not evolve into the
class of birds. In pterosaurs a greatly elongated fourth finger of each forelimb
supported a wing like membrane. The other fingers were short and reptilian, with
sharp claws. In birds the second finger is the principal strut of the wing, which
consists primarily of feathers. If the pterosaurs walked on all fours, the three short
fingers may have been employed for grasping. When a pterosaurs walked or
remained stationary, the fourth finger, and with it the wing, could only urn upward
in an extended inverted V- shape along each side of the animal's body. In
resemblance they were extremely similar to both birds and bats, with regard to
their overall body structure and proportion. This is hardly surprising as the design of
any flying vertebrate is subject to aerodynamic constraints. Both the pterosaurs and
the birds have hollow bones, a feature that represents a savings in weight. There is
a difference, which is that the bones of the birds are more massively reinforced by
internal struts. Although scales typically cover reptiles, the pterosaurs probably had
hairy coats. T.H. Huxley reasoned that flying vertebrates must have been warm-
blooded because flying implies a high rate of metabolism, which in turn implies a
high internal temperature. Huxley speculated that a coat of hair would insulate
against loss of body heat and might streamline the body to reduce drag in flight.
The recent discovery of a pterosaur specimen covered in long, dense, and relatively
thick hair like fossil material was the first clear evidence that his reasoning was
correct. Some palaeontologists are of the opinion that the pterosaurs jumped from
s dropped from trees or perhaps rose into the light winds from the crests of waves
in order to become airborne. Each theory has its associated difficulties. The first
makes a wrong assumption that the pterosaurs hind feet resembled a bat's and
could serve as hooks by which the animal could hang in preparation for flight. The
second hypothesis seems unlikely because large pterosaurs could not have landed
in trees without damaging their wings. The third calls for high aces to channel
updrafts. The pterosaurs would have been unable to control their flight once
airborne as the wind from which such waves arose would have been too strong.
As inferred from the passage, the skeleton of a pterosaur is 5. According to the
passage, some scientists believe that distinguishable from that of a bird by the
pterosaurs
A.length of its wingspan
B.hollow spaces in its bones
C.anatomic origin of its wing strut

MARK HUGHES is a master of the fine art of survival. His Los Angeles-based
Herbalife International Inc. is a pyramid outfit that peddles weight-loss and
nutrition concoctions of dubious value. Bad publicity and regulatory crackdowns
hurt his U.S. business in the late 1980s. But Hughes, 41, continues to enjoy a
luxurious lifestyle in a $20 million Beverly Hills mansion. He has been sharing the
pad and a yacht with his third wife, a former Miss Petite U.S.A. He can finance this
lavish lifestyle just on his salary and bonus, which last year came to $7.3 million.
He survived his troubles in the U.S. by moving overseas, where regulators are less
zealous and consumers even more naive, at least initially. Today 77% of Herbalife
retail sales derive from overseas. Its new prowling grounds: Asia and Russia. Last
year Herbalife's net earnings doubled, to $45 million, on net sales of $632million.
Based on Herbalife's Nasdaq-traded stock, the company has a market capitalization
of $790 million, making Hughes 58% worth $454 million.
There's a worm, though, in Hughes apple. Foreigners aren't stupid. In the end they
know when they've been had. In France, for instance, retail sales rose to $97
million by 1993 and then plunged to $12 million last year. In Germany sales hit
$159 million in 1994 and have since dropped to $54 million.
Perhaps aware that the world may not provide an infinite supply of suckers, Hughes
wanted to unload some of his shares. But in March, after Herbalife's stock
collapsed, he put off a plan to dump about a third of his holdings on the public.
Contributing to Hughes' woes, Herbalife's chief counsel and legal attack dog, David
Addis, quit in January. Before packing up, he reportedly bellowed at Hughes, "I
can't protect you anymore." Addis, who says he wants to spend more time with his
family, chuckles and claims attorney-client privilege.
Trouble on the home front, too. On a recent conference call with distributors,
Hughes revealed he's divorcing his wife, Suzan, whose beaming and perky image
adorns much of Herbalife's literature.
Meanwhile, in a lawsuit that's been quietly moving through Arizona's Superior
Court,former Herbalife distributor Daniel Fallow of Sandpoint, Idaho charges that
Herbalife arbitrarily withholds payment to distributors and marks up its products
over seven times the cost of manufacturing. Fallow also claims Hughes wanted to
use the Russian mafia to gain entry to that nation's market.
Fallow himself is no angel, but his lawsuit, which was posted on the Internet,
brought out other complaints. Randy Cox of Lewiston, Idaho says Herbalife
"destroyed my business" after he and his wife complained to the company that they
were being cheated out of their money by higher-ups in the pyramid
organization.Will Hughes survive again? Don't count on it this time.

1) Was a former attorney for Hughes

Few areas of neuron behavioral research seemed more promising is the early sixties
than that investigating the relationship between protein synthesis and learning. The
conceptual framework for the research was derived directly from molecular biology,
which had shown that genetic information is stored in nucleic acids and expressed
in proteins why not acquired information as well.
The first step towards establishing a connection between protein synthesis and
learning seemed to be to block memory (cause adhesion) by interrupting the
production of proteins. We were fortunate in finding a non lethal dosage of
puromycin that could, it first appealed, thoroughly inhibit brain protein synthesis as
well as reliability produce amnesia.
Before the actual connection between protein synthesis and learning could be
established however we began to have douche about whether inhibition of protein
synthesis was in fact the method by which puromycin produced amnesia. First,
ocher drugs, glutavimides themselves potent protein synthesis inhibitors either
failed to cause amnesia in some situations where it could easily be induced by
puromycin or produced an amnesia with a different time course from that of
puromycin. Second, puromycin was found to inhabit protein synthesis by breaking
certain amino acid chaim, and the resulting fragments were suspected of being the
actual cause of amnesia is some eases. Third, puromycin was reported to cause
abnormalities in the train, including seizures. Thus, not only weredecreased protein
synthesis and amnesia dissociated, but alternative mechanism for theamnestic
action of puromycin were readily suggested.
So, puromycin turned out to be a disappointment. It came to be regarded as a poor
agent for amnesia studies, although, of course, it was poor only in the context of
our original paradigm of protein synthesis inhibition. In our frustration, our initial
response was simply to change dregs rather than our conceptual orientation. After
many such disappointments, however, it now appears unlikely, that we will make a
firm connection between protein synthesis and learning merely by pursuing the
approaches of the past our experience with drugs has shown that all the amnestic
agents, often interfere with memory in ways that seem unrelated to their inhibition
of protein synthesis. More importantly, the notion that the interruption or
intensification of protein production in the train can be related in cause and affect
fashion to learning non seems simplistic and unproductive. Remove the battery
from a car and the car will not go Drive the car a long distance at high speed and
the battery will become more highly charged. Neither of these facts proves that the
battery power the car, only knowledge of the overall automotive system will reveal
it mechanism of locomotion and the role of the battery with in the system.
. According to the passage, neuron behaviorists initially based their belief that

According to Albert Einstein the non mathematician, is seized by a mysterious
shudderingwhen he hears of 'four-dimensional' things, he is seized by a feeling,
which is very similar to the thoughts awakened by the occult. And at the same time
the statement that the world in which we live is a four-dimensional space - time
continuum is quite a common place statement.

This might lead to an argument regarding the use of the term ''commonplace'' by
Einstein.Yet the difficulty lies more in the wording than the ideas. Einstein's concept
of the universe as a four-dimensional space-time continuum becomes plain and
clear, when what he means by ''continuum'' becomes clear. A continuum is
something that is continuous, A ruler, for example, is a one-dimensional space
continuum. Most rulers are divided into inches and frWASLions, scaled down to one-
sixteenth of an inch. Will it be possible to conceive a ruler, which is calibrated to a
millionth or billionth of an inch. In theory there is no reason why the steps from
point to point should not be even smaller. What distinguishes a continuum is the
fWASL that the space between any two points can be sub-divided into an infinite
number of smaller divisions.
A railroad track is a one-dimensional space continuum and on it the engineer of a
traincan describe his position at any time by citing a single co-ordinate point - i.e., a
stationor a milestone. A sea captain, however, has to worry about two dimensions.
The surface of the sea is a two-dimensional continuum and the co-ordinate points
by which sailor fixes his positions in his two dimensional continuum are latitude and
longitude. An airplane pilot guides his plane through a three - dimensional
continuum, hence he has to consider not only latitude and longitude, but also his
height above the ground. The continuum of an airplane pilot constitutes space as
we perceive it. In other words, the space of our world is a three-dimensional
continuum.
Just indicating its position in space is not enough while describing any physical
event, which involves motion. How position changes in time also needs to be
mentioned. Thus to give an accurate picture of the operation of a New York -
Chicago express, one must mention not only that it goes from New - York to Albany
to Syracuse to Cleveland to Toledo to Chicago, but also the times at which it
touches each of those points. This can be done either by means of a timetable or a
visual chart. If the miles between New York and Chicago are plotted horizontally on
a piece of ruled paper and the hours and minutes are plotted vertically, then a
diagonal line properly drawn across the page illustrates the progress of the train in
two-dimensional space - time continuum. This type of graphic representation is
familiar to most newspaper readers; a stock market chart,
For example, pictures financial events in a two - dimensional dollar - time
continuum. Similarly for the best picturisation of the flight of an airplane from New
York to Los Angeles a four - dimensional space - time continuum is essential. The
latitude, longitude and altitude will only make sense to the traffic manager of the
airline if the time co -ordinate is also mentioned. Therefore time is the fourth
dimension. If a flight has to be looked at, perceived as a whole, it wouldn't work if it
is broken down into a series of disconnected take - offs, climbs, glides, and landing,
it needs to be looked at and perceived as a continuous four - dimensional space -
time continuum curve.
The purpose of this passage is to highlight the point that
1) Stock market charts may be helpful to physicists
2) The fourth dimension is time.

information provided in the passage. According to Albert Einstein the non
mathematician, is seized by a mysterious shuddering when he hears of 'four-
dimensional' things, he is seized by a feeling, which is very similar to the thoughts
awakened by the occult. And at the same time the statement that the world in
which we live is a four-dimensional space - time continuum is quite a common place
statement. This might lead to an argument regarding the use of the term
''commonplace'' by Einstein. Yet the difficulty lies more in the wording than the
ideas. Einstein's concept of the universe as a four-dimensional space-time
continuum becomes plain and clear, when what he means by ''continuum'' becomes
clear. A continuum is something that is continuous, A ruler, for example, is a one-
dimensional space continuum. Most rulers are divided into inches and frWASLions,
scaled down to one-sixteenth of an inch. Will it be possible to conceive a ruler,
which is calibrated to a millionth or billionth of an inch. In theory there is no reason
why the steps from point to point should not be even smaller. What distinguishes a
continuum is the fWASL that the space between any two points can be sub-divided
into an infinite number of smaller divisions. A railroad track is a one-dimensional
space continuum and on it the engineer of a train can describe his position at any
time by citing a single co-ordinate point - i.e., a station or a milestone. A sea
captain, however, has to worry about two dimensions. The surface of the sea is a
two-dimensional continuum and the co-ordinate points by which sailor fixes his
positions in his two dimensional continuum are latitude and longitude. An airplane
pilot guides his plane through a three - dimensional continuum, hence he has to
consider not only latitude and longitude, but also his height above the ground. The
continuum of an airplane pilot constitutes space as we perceive it. In other words,
the space of our world is a three-dimensional continuum. http://www.ChetanaS.org
two - dimensional space - time continuum. This type of graphic representation is
familiar to most newspaper readers; a stock market chart, for example, pictures
financial events in a two - dimensional dollar - time continuum. Similarly for the
best picturisation of the flight of an airplane from New York to Los Angeles a four -
dimensional space - time continuum is essential. The latitude, longitude and altitude
will only make sense to the traffic manager of the airline if the time co - ordinate is
also mentioned. Therefore time is the fourth dimension. If a flight has to be looked
at, perceived as a whole, it wouldn't work if it is broken down into a series of
disconnected take - offs, climbs, glides, and landing, it needs to be looked at and
perceived as a continuous four - dimensional space - time continuum curve.

How position changes in time also needs to be mentioned. Thus to give an accurate
picture of the operation of a New York - Chicago express, one must mention not
only that it goes from New - York to Albany to Syracuse to Cleveland to Toledo to
Chicago, but also the times at which it touches each of those points. This can be
done either by means of a timetable or a visual chart. If the miles between New
York and Chicago are plotted horizontally on a piece of ruled paper and the hours
and minutes are plotted vertically, then a diagonal line properly drawn across the
page illustrates the progress of the train in two - dimensional space - time
continuum. This type of graphic representation is familiar to most newspaper
readers; a stock market chart, for example, pictures financial events in a two -
dimensional dollar - time continuum. Similarly for the best picturization of the flight
of an airplane from New York to Los Angeles a four - dimensional space - time

train can describe his position at any time by citing a single co-ordinate point - i.e.,
a station or a milestone. A sea captain, however, has to worry about two
dimensions. The surface of the sea is a two-dimensional continuum and the co-
ordinate points by which sailor fixes his positions in his two dimensional continuum
are latitude and longitude. An airplane pilot guides his plane through a three -
dimensional continuum, hence he has to consider not only latitude and longitude,
but also his height above the ground. The continuum of an airplane pilot constitutes
space as we perceive it. In other words, the space of our world is a three-
dimensional continuum. Just indicating its position in space is not enough while
describing any physical event, which involves motion. How position changes in time
also needs to be mentioned. Thus to give an accurate picture of the operation of a
New York - Chicago express, one must mention not only that it goes from New -
York to Albany to Syracuse to Cleveland to Toledo to Chicago, but also the times at
which it touches each of those points. This can be done either by means of a
timetable or a visual chart. If the miles between New York and Chicago are plotted
horizontally on a piece of ruled paper and the hours and minutes are plotted
vertically, then a diagonal line properly drawn across the page illustrates the
progress of the train in two - dimensional space - time continuum. This type of
graphic representation is familiar to most newspaper readers; a stock market chart,
for example, pictures financial events in a two - dimensional dollar - time
airline if the time co - ordinate is also mentioned. Therefore time is the fourth
time continuum curve. Following are some sample questions on this passage:

Questions are based on the following passage
"I want to criticize the social system, and to show it at work, at its most intense."
Virginia Woolf's provocative statement about her intentions in writing Mrs. Dalloway
has regularly been ignored by the critics, since it highlights an aspect of her literary
interests very different from the traditional picture of the "poetic" novelist
concerned with examining states of reverie and vision and with following the
intricate pathways of individual consciousness. But Virginia Woolf was are ballistic
as well as a poetic novelist satirist and social critic as well as a visionary: literary
critics' cavalier dismissal of Woolf's social vision will not withstand scrutiny. In her
novels, Woolf is deeply engaged by the questions of how individuals are shaped (or
deformed) by their social Environments, how historical forces impinge on people's
lives, how class, wealth, and gender help to determine people's fates. Most of her
novels are rooted in a realistically rendered social setting and in a precise historical
time. Woolf's focus on society has not been generally recognized because of her
intense antipathy to propaganda in art. The pictures of reformers in her novels are
usually satiric or sharply critical. Even when Woolf is fundamentally sympathetic to
their causes, she portray people anxious to reform their society and possessed of a
message or program as arrogant or dishonest, unaware of how their political ideas
serve their own psychological needs own psychological needs. (Her Writer's Diary
notes: "the only honest people are the artists," whereas "these social reformers and
philanthropists...harbor...discreditable desires under the disguise of loving their
kind....") Woolf detested what she called "preaching" in fiction ,too, and criticized
novelist D.H.Lawrence (among others) for working by this method. Woolf's own
social criticism is expressed in the language of observation rather than in direct
commentary, since for her, fiction is a contemplative, not an active art. She
describes phenomena and provides materials for a judgment about society and
social issues; it is the reader's work to put the observation together and understand
the coherent point of view behind them. As a moralist, Woolf works by indirection,
subtly undermining officially accepted mores, mocking, suggesting, calling into
question, rather than asserting, advocating, bearing witness: hers is the satirist's
art .Woolf's literary models were acute social observers like Checkhov and Chaucer.
As she put it in The Common Reader. "It is safe to say that not a single law has
been framed or one stone set upon another because of anything Chaucer said or
wrote; and yet, as we read him, we are absorbing morality at every pore." Like
Chaucer, Woolf chose to understand as well as to judge, to know her society root
and branch-decision crucial in order to produce art rather than polemic.
In the first paragraph of the passage, the author's attitude toward the literary critics
mentioned can best be described as?
1) disparaging
2) ironic
3) factious
4) skeptical but resigned

It is a popular misconception that nuclear fusion power is free of radioactivity; in
fact, the deuterium-tritium reaction hat nuclear scientists are currently exploring
with such zeal produces both alpha particles and neutrons, (The neutrons are used
to produce tritium from a lithium blanket surrounding the reactor.) Another common
is conception is that nuclear fusion power is a virtually unlimited source of energy
because of the enormous quantity of deuterium in the sea. Actually, its limits are
set by the amount of available lithium, which is about as plentiful as uranium in the
Earth's crust. Research should certainly continue on controlled nuclear fusion ,but
no energy program should be premised on its existence until it has proven practical.
For the immediate future, we must continue to use hydroelectric power, nuclear
fission, and fossil fuels to meet our energy needs. The energy sources already in
major use are in major use for good reason.
Which of the following statements concerning nuclear scientists is most directly
suggested in the passage
1) Nuclear scientists exploring the decuterium-tritium reaction have overlooked key

facts in their eagerness to prove nuclear fusion practical
2) Nuclear scientists may have overestimated the amount of lithium actually

available in the Earth's crust.
3) Nuclear scientists have not been entirely dispassionate in their investigation of

the deuterium-tritium reaction.
4) Nuclear scientists have insufficiently investigated the lithium-to-tritium reaction

in nuclear fusion.

accepted mores into question
