CCI Management Trainee (Accounts) Mock Test - 2 - Agriculture Exams MCQ

The correct answer is 'strict'.
Key Points

• The word 'harsh' is often used to describe something or someone who is unkind, cruel, or more severe than is necessary.
• In this context, 'strict' is a suitable meaning for 'harsh'.
• The term 'strict' refers to demanding that rules, especially those of behavior, should be obeyed.
• Although 'rough' can sometimes be a synonym for 'harsh', in the context of describing a person's temperament as in this passage, 'strict' is a more precise match.
• 'Lax' is the opposite of 'harsh', so it cannot be the correct answer, and 'None of these' is also not the correct answer because 'strict' is a potential meaning of 'harsh'.

Hence, the correct answer will be Option 1.

The correct answer is 'levelled against'.

Key Points

• The correct option to substitute the underlined segment in the sentence is "levelled against."
• The corrected sentence reads: "Several accusations were levelled against the politician during the heated debate, casting doubt on his credibility and honesty."
• The phrase "levelled against" is idiomatic and widely used in English when accusations or criticisms are directed toward someone. It indicates that the accusations are aimed at or attributed to the person in question.
• The other options, "levelled for" and "level against," do not fit the intended meaning. "Levelled for" doesn't convey the sense of accusations being directed at someone, and "level against" is not a commonly used phrase in this context.
• Therefore, "levelled against" is the most appropriate and commonly accepted phrase to indicate accusations being directed at a person or entity.

The correct answer is- Stickler.

Key Points

• Let's look at the meaning of the marked option:
  • Stickler- a person who insists on a certain quality or type of behavior (एक व्यक्ति जो एक निश्चित गुणवत्ता या व्यवहार के प्रकार पर जोर देता है)
• Let's look at the meanings of the other given options:
  • Disciplinarian- a person who believes in or practices firm discipline (एक व्यक्ति जो दृढ़ अनुशासन में विश्वास करता है या अभ्यास करता है)
  • Instantaneous- occurring or done in an instant or instantly (तत्काल या तुरन्त में घटित या किया हुआ)
  • Boaster- a person talking with excessive pride and self-satisfaction (अत्यधिक गर्व और आत्म-संतुष्टि के साथ बात करने वाला व्यक्ति)
• Hence, from the given meanings, we find that Stickler is the correct one-word substitute.

The correct answer is: Option 1 i.e. Push.

Key Points

• The word "Shove" means to push someone or something with force. (धक्का देना)
  • Example: He gave the door a hard shove to open it.
• "Push" refers to exerting force on someone or something to move them away from oneself. (धक्का देना)
  • Example: She had to push the heavy cart up the hill.
• Hence, we can infer that the synonym of 'Shove' is 'Push'.

Therefore, the correct answer is: Option 1 i.e. Push.

Additional Information

Here are the other options explained along with their Hindi meanings and example sentences:

• Flow (प्रवाह): The action or fact of moving along in a steady, continuous stream.
  • Example: The river flowed gently through the valley.
• Comfort (सुविधा): A state of physical ease and freedom from pain or constraint.
  • Example: She sought comfort in her mother's arms.

Given Statements:
No river is a sea.
Some rivers are lakes.
All rivers are ponds.
The least possible Venn diagram for the given statement is:

Conclusions:
I. I. Some lakes are seas - False (Because, No definite relation given between lakes and seas, so it can be possible).
II. Some ponds are seas - False (Because, No definite relation given between ponds and seas, so it can be possible).
III. Some lakes are ponds - True (Because, some river are lakes and all rivers are ponds, so, the part of lakes which is river is also ponds).
So, Only conclusion III follows

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

According to the given information

Statements: M @ T, T $ R, R © J
On converting: M < T, T ≤ R, R ≥ J
On combining: M < T ≤ R ≥ J
Conclusions:
I. J # M → J > M → False (As M < T ≤ R ≥ J → Relation between J and M cannot be determined)
II. R # M → R > M → True (As M < T ≤ R → R > M)
III. J * T → J = T → False (As T ≤ R ≥ J → Relation between J and T cannot be determined)

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

Logic :

• (1) is added to all letter's position value according to the English alphabetic series except first two letters.
• First two letters interchange their positions.

So,

• 'MENTOR' is coded as 'EMOUPS'

And,

• 'OCTAGON' is coded as 'COUBHPO'

Similarly,

• 'PENCIL' is coded as:

Hence, "EPODJM" is the correct answer.

Statements:
All men are old
All women are old.
The Venn diagram as per the given statements:

Conclusions:
I. All men are women. → not follow ( There is no direct relation between men and women, so it can be possible but not definitely true)

II. All old are either men or women. → not follow (As per the statements, all men are old and all women are old)

Hence, the correct answer is "Neither conclusion I nor II follows".

Given:

Pipes A and B can fill a tank in 10 hours and x hours respectively.

Pipe C alone can empty the full tank in 15 hours. When all the three pipes are opened simultaneously for 8 hours, 60% of the tank can be filled.

Concept Used:

By Fraction Method

Calculation:

Pipe A fill in the tank in 10 hours

In one hours = 1/10

Pipe B fill in the tank in x hours

In one hours = 1/x

Pipe C alone can empty the full tank in 15 hours.

In one hours = 1/15

When all the three pipes are opened simultaneously for 8 hours, 60% of the tank can be filled.

⇒ (1/10 + 1/x - 1/15)8 = 60/100

⇒ (15x + 150 - 10x)/150x = 60/800

⇒ 90x = 40x + 1200

⇒ 50x = 1200

⇒ x = 24

Total Work is 150x

⇒ 150 × 24 = 3600

B and C together empty two-fifth of the tank

⇒ {3600 × (2/5)}/(10x - 150)

⇒ 1440/90

⇒ 16 hours

∴ 16 hours can pipes B and C together empty two-fifth of the tank.

Given:
Ratio of the share of the profit of A, B and C (respectively) = 2 : 5 : 3
Ratio of the time period of the investments of A, B and C (in months) = 8 : 6 : 9
Formula used:
The ratio of the share of profits = Ratio of the product of investments and time period
Calculation:
Let the ratio of investments of A, B and C be in the ratio a : b : c
According to the question,
2 : 5 : 3 = 8a : 6b : 9c
⇒ , ,
⇒ 40a = 12b, 18b = 45c, 24a = 18c
⇒ ---- eq.1
⇒ ----eq.2
⇒ ----eq.3
By multiplying eq.2 by 2; we get ----eq.4
Now by equations 1,3 and 4 we get, a : b : c = 3 ∶ 10 ∶ 4

∴ The ratio of their investments is 3 ∶ 10 ∶ 4.

Given:
8 workers can complete a task in (y + 12) days
15 machines can do the same task in (2y + 6) days
The ratio of the efficiency of a worker to a machine = 3:2
Concept Used:
Total work done = number of workers × efficiency × number of days(or hours)
Calculation:
The work done is the same in both cases so,
⇒ 8 × (y + 12) × 3 = 15 × (2y + 6) × 2
⇒ 24y + 288 = 60y + 180
⇒ 36y = 108
⇒ y = 108/36
⇒ y = 3
So, the work done is 8 × (3+12) × (3) = 360 units
Total efficiency of 6 workers and 3 machines = (6 × 3) + (3 × 2)
⇒ 18 + 6 = 24
So, the number of days taken by 6 workers and 3 machines to complete a work is,
⇒ 360/24 = 15
Hence, the correct answer is 15 days.

Given:
X , Y and Z can complete a work in 5 days, 15 days and 30 days, respectively.
Concept used:
Efficiency = (Total work / Total time taken)
Efficiency = work done in a single day
Calculation:
Let total work is 30 units ( Lcm of 5 . 15 and 30 )
The efficiency of X is
⇒ 30 / 5 = 6 unit
Again, the Efficiency of Y is,
⇒ 30 / 15 = 2 unit
Again, the Efficiency of Z is,
⇒ 30 / 30 = 1 unit
Total Efficiency,
⇒ 6 + 2 + 1= 9 unit
Efficiency of Y + Z = 3 units
Total work done in 1st, and 3rd day
⇒ 2 ×( 9+3) = 24 units
Y + Z together does in 2nd and 4 th day is, 3 × 2 = 6 unit
The number of days required is 2 + 2 = 4 days
∴ The correct option is 2

Given:
P and Q can do work together in 30 days.
R and Q can do work together in 24 days.
P and R can do work together in 20 days.
Formula Used:
LCM method
Calculation:
Now LCM of 30, 24, 20 is 120. Consider 120 as total work.
Total work = 120 unit
Efficiency of P + Q = 120/30
= 4 unit
Efficiency of Q + R = 120/24
= 5 unit
Efficiency of R + P = 120/20
= 6 unit
Efficiency of (A + B + B + C + A + C) = 4 + 5 + 6
= 15 unit
A,B,C together they work for 10 days then
2(A + B + C) completes the work in 10 days = = 75 units.
Remaining 45 units completed by P ( 120 units - 75 units (completed in 10 days) = 45
P + Q = 4 , Q + R = 5, R + P = 6 solving equation we get P = 5/2
Remaining work done by P
⇒ 45 × = 18 days
∴ In 18 days P take to finish the remaining work.
