Solve the following

• MHZ, NIW, OKT, PNQ,?• (1) RBN• (2) QRN• (3) QRM• (4) QQN


Solution

• In the first letter the gap is just 1• In second the gap is increasing 1,2,3,4,5• In third the gap is -3 (always).• Thus the solution is (2)


Solve the series..

• Q1F, S2E, U6D, W21C,?• (1) Y66B• (2) Y44B• (3) Y88B• (4) Z88B


Solution

• In the first letter the gap is 2 • Q,S,T,W,Y• In second, get the numbers by (X*1+1),

(x*2+2), (X*3+3) . . . .so 1,2,6,21,88• In third sequnce, we are reducing by 1• F,E,D,C,B. • So answer is (3)


Solve the following series

• (2, 3), (3, 5), (5, 7), (7, 11), (11, 13), ?• (1) (13, 15)• (2) (15, 16)• (3) (13, 17)• (4) (13, 19)

Read the passage carefully • Psychological research indicates that college

hockey and foot ball players are more quickly moved to hostility and aggression than are college athletes in non-contact sports such as swim ming. But the researchers’ conclusion — that contact sports en courage and teach participants to be hostile and aggressive — is untenable. The football and hockey players were probably more hostile and aggressive to start with, than the swimmers.


Which of these will strenthen / weaken the conclusion

• (1) The football and bockey players became more hostile and aggressive during the season and remained so during the off season, whereas there was no increase in aggressive ness among the swimmers.

• (2) The football and hockey players, but not the swimmers, were aware at the start of the experiment that they were being tested for aggressiveness.

• (3) The same psychological research indicated that the football and hockey players had a great respect for cooperation and team play, whereas the swimmers were most concerned with excelling as individual competitors.

• (4) The research studies were designed to include no college athletes who participated in both contact and non-contact sports.


Answer

• Statement No. 1. strenthens the conclusion

• Statement No. 2. Weakens the conclusion


Read the passage carefully • For our nation to compete successfully in the high-

technology enterprises of the future, workers with skills in maths and sci ence will be needed. But it is doubtful that they will be avail able, since there is a shortage of high school maths and science teachers that shows no signs of improving. Industry can help alleviate this problem by funding scholarship grants and aid to college students who graduate in maths and science with the hope of pursuing teaching careers.


Which argument will prevent the plan from achieving its objectives?

• After graduation from college, most maths and science graduates opt for jobs in industry rather than in teaching.

• Many high schools have been forced to lower their standards in hiring maths and science teachers.

• More scholarship money is already available for students of maths and science than is available for those in any other field.

• Population statistics show that the number of high school students is expected to decline over the next ten years.


Answer…

• Although all the statements are negative, but the first statement will stop the plan from succeeding the most as the students opt for industry rather than teaching.


Read the passage carefully • Some scientists believe that, in certain species of birds,

actual particles of metal within the brain react to the Earth’s magnetic field in the same way as the needle in a compass. It is this mechanism that is thought to underlie the birds’ amazing ability to navigate accurately over distances of thousands of miles by day and night during migration. To test this theory, researchers surgically removed the metal particles from the heads of some birds and then released them, alongwith a number of untreated birds, at the usual time and place of their annual winter migration.


Which of the following results would most seriously weaken the theory being tested?

i. The untreated birds were confused by the erratic flight patterns of the surgically treated birds and failed to mi grate successfully.

ii. The surgically treated birds were able to follow their usual flight patterns successfully by day, but not by night.

iii. The surgically treated birds were able to migrate about as accurately as the untreated birds.

iv. The surgically treated birds were able to migrate success fully only when closely following a group of untreated birds.


Conclusion

• The third statement weakens the argument completely
