The passage talks about making India a developed country thus progress should be ‘rapid’ or 'fast'. 

‘Aesthetically’ means ‘in a way that gives pleasure through beauty’ and ‘ballistic’ means ‘to become extremely angry’. The word ‘meandering’ means ‘following a winding course.’

Thus option 2 is the correct answer. Other words do not convey any meaning.

The sentence talks about transforming an old building to a very big port thus the building must have been destroyed and not preserved.

The word ‘renovated’ too is incorrect as it means ‘restored; modernized.’ The word ‘goaded’ which means ‘provoked’ makes no sense here.

Thus ‘demolished’ which means ‘pulled or knocked down (a building)’ fits here correctly.
Hence the correct answer is option 3.

The word ‘welfare’ means ‘betterment and well-being’ and conveys the correct meaning that the profits should be spent for the welfare of the nation. The other words mean as follows and convey no meaning here.
Tribulation ⇒ a cause of great trouble or suffering
Paucity ⇒ scarcity
Consideration ⇒ careful thought, typically over a period of time.
Option 1 is thus the correct answer.

The word ‘vision’ which means ‘the ability to think about or plan the future with imagination or wisdom’ fits here conveying the meaning that India’s future plan or goal will come true not only by words but the extra effort is needed.

Other words do not convey any meaning. Option 4 is thus the correct answer.

The word ‘overcome’ gives us the hint that a word conveying a negative meaning should be used here thus ‘opulence’ which means ‘wealth’ is incorrect here. The sentence does not talk about anything in specific thus ‘corruption’ and ‘crisis’ would be incorrect here.

The word ‘pitfalls’ means ‘dangers; risks’ and conveys the correct meaning. It means that extra effort is needed to overcome all the risks or obstacles at all levels.
Option 3 is the correct answer.

The error is in part 1 of the sentence, ‘visited’ should be used instead of ‘visit’. “Visited” is the past tense form of the verb “visit” and is used to denote going somewhere habitually or to see someone or someplace. Since the subject has already completed the trip, the past tense of the word should be used. 

The error is in part 2 of the sentence. “Yet” and “although” should not be used together as they denote the same thing and so if used together they cancel out each other’s effect and are thus redundant. “Although” is used to denote ‘despite the fact that’ and ‘yet’ is used to denote ‘even so’.
Hence, option 2 is the correct answer.

The error is in part 3 of the sentence. ‘For’ should be used instead of ‘since’.

“Since” is used to express the time and to mean ‘because’. Since means from ‘a definite time in the past to the present’. “Since” should not be used here as the sentence is talking about a duration of time which is still ongoing.

'For' is used to denote the duration of time and should replace since the sentence.
Hence, option 3 is the correct answer.

The sentence uses the form ‘do away with’, which is correct and thus needs no improvement.

Doing away with means to get rid of something or stop using something.

Do without means to manage without having something.

Thus, the alternative ‘doing away with’ would be an improvement for the sentence and thus makes it meaningful.

Thus, the correct answer is option 3.

Example sentence: These ridiculous rules and regulations should have been done away with years ago. 

The sentence uses the form ‘draw down’, which is incorrect and thus needs improvement.

Draw down is a noun that means a situation in which money that is available has been taken.

Draw up is a phrasal verb which means to prepare something, usually officially, in writing.

Thus, the alternative ‘draw up’ would be an improvement for the sentence and thus makes it meaningful.
Thus, the correct answer is option 2.

The sentence uses the form ‘catch up’ which is incorrect and thus needs improvement.

Catch up is a phrasal verb which means the reach the same quality or standard as something else.

Catch up on is a phrasal verb that means get the latest news or information about something.

Thus, the alternative ‘catch up on’ would be an improvement for the sentence and thus makes it meaningful.
Therefore, the correct answer is option 3.

The word 'savvy' means 'shrewd and knowledgeable; having common sense and good judgment'. The meanings of the words are:
Scandalous ⇒ morally offensive.
Scrupulous ⇒ paying great attention to detail.
Sybarite ⇒ a luxurious person.
Gullible ⇒ easily persuaded to believe something; credulous.
Option 4 is thus the correct answer.

The correct option is option 2.
Foment- instigate or stir up (an undesirable or violent sentiment or course of action).

Instigate- bring about or initiate (an action or event).

Cease- come or bring to an end.
Prod- stimulate or persuade (someone who is reluctant or slow) to do something.

The correct option is option 2.
Postulate means 'suggest or assume the existence, fact, or truth of (something) as a basis for reasoning, discussion, or belief'.

Emphatic- expressing something forcibly and clearly.

Assume- suppose to be the case, without proof.

Decisive- producing a definite result.
Hence the word synonymous with 'Postulate' is 'Assume'.

The verb in the sentence is 'building'.

A verb is in the active voice when its form shows that the person or thing denoted by the subject does something.

A verb is in the passive voice when its form shows that something is done to the person or thing denoted by the subject.

So we can clearly see that the sentence provided to us is in the active voice. To convert it into passive voice, the subject generally is shifted to the end of the statement.

Since the question uses 'is building' which is the present continuous tense, it can only be converted into 'is being built'.
Therefore, option 1 appropriately follows the above rule. 

In indirect speech, the words of the speaker are not written in quotes. Usually, the word 'that' is used to convey the words of the speaker.  In Reported speech, it shows his habit/general interest, so tense shouldn't be changed. The word 'this' needs to be written as 'that.'

Also the present simple tense 'like' should be changed to past simple tense 'liked' and 'this' will be changed to 'that'.
Option 4 is the correct answer.

The correct option is option 1.
Direct speech occurs when something is being repeated exactly as it was, usually in between a pair of inverted commas. Indirect speech is a report on what someone else said or wrote without using that person's exact words.

The given sentence is in Indirect Speech and needs to be converted to Direct Speech.
There are several rules for doing the same:

1. It is important to use the correct tense of the reporting verb (said).
2.  The conjunctions ‘that, to, if, whether’ must be removed.
3. Quotation marks, question marks, exclamation marks, and full stop must be inserted wherever necessary.
4. A comma must be inserted before the statement.
5. The order of words must be carefully looked at.
6. Pay attention to the correct conjugation of the verbs in the given statement.

Keeping all the above rules into consideration, the correct form of the sentence in Direct Speech would be:

He said, "Alas! I do not have any money left."

The phrase ‘speak by the card’ means to speak to the point and well without guessing but based on information.

Eg- Kavya always keeps to herself and speaks by the card.
Hence, option 4 is the correct answer.

The idiom ‘hide one’s light under a bushel’ means to conceal your talents or abilities.

Eg-There is no need to hide your light under a bushel, we heard you singing in your room.
Hence, option 2 is the correct answer.

The part S ends with the adjective 'hard', indicating that it must be associated with some noun.

Out of the jumbled parts, only Q begins with the noun 'questions'.

So, SQ must be the correct order.

Similarly, P also ends with the adjective 'print', which needs to completed by the following part.

This is only shown by S, which begins with the noun 'media', which means S must follow P.

So, PSQ is the correct order.
This is only reflected by option 4, which gives the order PSQR.

Therefore, the correct answer is option 4.
The correct sentence will be: 

The small section of the English language print media that was asking hard questions could have been squeezed a bit through back channels but was otherwise kept ignored.

The part Q ends with the article 'the', indicating that it must be associated with an adjective or a noun.

So, the part following Q must begin with an adjective or a noun. This is only given by R, which begins with the adjective 'political'.

QR is, therefore, the correct sequence.
Looking at the context, QR fits aptly after 1.
So, QR begins the correct sequence.
Only option 1 shows this, giving the sequence QRSP.
Therefore, the correct answer is option 1.
The correct sentence will be:

Metaphysical libertarianism, not to be confused with the political doctrine of libertarianism, says that determinism is false because when we act freely some part of the process is leading up to the action.

The correct answer is option 2.

When a number of adjectives are used together, the order depends on their function. The usual order is:

Quantity, Value/opinion, Size, Temperature, Age, Shape, Colour, Origin, Material

Therefore, the correct sentence will be:
My room has two small round wooden boxes.

The correct answer here is 'optimising'.

Optimising refers to make the best or most effective use of (a situation or resource).

The other alternatives are grammatically and structurally incorrect keeping in mind the tense of the sentence.

The sentence is framed in present continuous tense and only option 3 has the same tense.

The meanings of the words given in the options are as follows:

1.Censor: To forbid someone from doing something
2. Sensor: A sensitive detector
3. Pressure: Continuous physical force exerted on or against an object by something in contact with it
4. Warning: A statement or event that warns of something; a cautionary advice
Thus, the word ‘warning’ can be substituted for ‘a cautionary advice’.

The meanings of the words are:
Unfrock ⇒ To remove a priest from his position
Delimit ⇒ determine the limits or boundaries of.
Falter ⇒ hesitate
Digress ⇒ wander off from the subject
Thus option 1 is the correct answer.

Logic:
The pattern followed here is:
4 × 3 = 12; 5 × 2 = 10, 12 + 10 = 22
6 × 5 = 30; 2 × 3 = 6, 30 + 6 = 36
So, 2 × 7 = 14; 8 × 4 = 32, 14 + 32 = 46
Thus, 46 is the correct answer. 

1) 14, 21, 24, 58, 32 → TXACK
2) 76, 13, 23, 58, 65 → TRCCK
3) 14, 98, 24, 76, 32 → TRATK
4) 76, 13, 55, 85, 32 → TRACK
Clearly, the number set for the word “TRACK” is ’76, 13, 55, 85, 32.’

The Squares formed are:
ADSR, BPQC,
RFSN, PEQM
AENP, EDQN, RMNP, MSQN, RMFB, FCSM,
ELNI, INJP, JNKM, KNLQ,
Thus, there are total 14 Squares formed.

On close observation, we find that question figure is embedded in fig.2, as shown below:

Thus, figure 2 is the correct answer.

Checking all the symbols:
84 ÷ 12 + 5 × 13 = 72
→ 7 + 5 × 13 = 72
→ 7 + 65 = 72
→ 72 = 72
Thus, ‘÷, + and ×’ will balance the given equation.
