Direction : Read the following passage and answer the question that follows:

In a monarchy, the king or queen is the head of state. However, as the UK has a constitutional monarchy, the ability to make and pass legislation belongs to Parliament rather than the Queen. The monarch retains a symbolic role in government. She formally opens Parliament every year, and when the government passes a bill, it cannot become an Act of Parliament until it receives her stamp of approval, a process called Royal Assent. In reality, though, no monarch has refused to give Royal Assent since 1708, when Queen Anne did so only at the behest of ministers. As such, Queen Elizabeth II’s formal duties are largely representational, such as embarking on goodwill visits abroad and hosting foreign heads of state. The monarch’s main role is to serve as a vital part of Britain’s “national identity, unity, and pride”, says the official royal website, royal.uk.

Which one of the following can be inferred from the passage?

II. Some nerds are fools. Some fools are green. Some nerds are green.
III. Cars are well-built. Well-built sustains. Cars sustain.
IV. All cyclists are fast. Some fast are wrestlers. Some cyclists are wrestlers.


Exploitation of poor by rich can be stemmed only if the state exercises complete control over agriculture and industrial production. But state control is beset by two evils; corruption and delay. The net result is that if man tries to escape from one evil, then he is trapped by another. Suffering, hence, is inescapable. The argument presented above seems to imply the following conclusions. Identify the one which is least dubious. Apply common sense.


In this question and two arguments are given. Arguments in relation to the question are either weak or strong, use this key to give your responses.

Question: Should private operators be allowed to operate, passengers train service in India?

Argument I: No, private operators do not agree to operate on non-profitable sectors.
Argument II: Yes, it will improve the quality of Indian Railway Service.


Identify the alternative which gives true picture of the relation between the arguments listed below:

1. A healthy society is characterized by the overall development of every section. As in the case of human body no organ is less prominent, so also in a society, no section is less important. If any human organ is sick, then the human being is sick. Similarly, if any section of society is sick, then the society is sick.

2. It is fallacious to think that priority to production of agricultural products alone promotes the prosperity of farmers. Prosperity has too many discussions. Transportation, communication, network, sound economic policy, to mention a few are equally important to the economic well-being of fanners. Hence they also deserve consideration.


Given below is some statement followed by two arguments. Read carefully and decide which of the arguments strongly support the statement.

Statement: Should internal assessment in colleges and universities be abolished?

Arguments:

(i) Yes, this will eliminate the possibility of favoritism.

(ii) No, teaching faculty will lose control over the students and this would adversely affect their academic growth.


A government's proposed 8 percent cut in all subsidies to art groups will be difficult for those groups to absorb. As can be seen, however, from their response to last year's cut,  it will not put them out of existence. Last year there was also an 8 percent cut, and though private fund-raising was very difficult for the art groups in the current recessionary economy, they did survive.  
The reasoning in the argument is flawed because of the  argument
