SSC GD Constable Mock Test - 5 - Question 5

Directions: Read the following information carefully and answer the questions given beside.
Eight persons viz. A, B, C, E, F, G, I and J sit around a rectangular table such that three persons sit on each longer side and one person sits on each shorter side. Nobody sits at the corners. The persons whose name starts with vowel do not sit on the shorter side of the table. Three of them face away from centre while the rest five face towards the centre.
B, who faces centre sits second to the left of E. J is on the immediate right of F, who is at a gap of two persons from E. Neither C nor A face away from centre. The immediate neighbors of F face away from centre. G is second to the right of A. I is on the immediate left of F. I is neither adjacent to A nor to C. E is adjacent to G.

Q. Who is third to the right of I?

Detailed Solution for SSC GD Constable Mock Test - 5 - Question 5

A is third to the right of I.
Hence option A is correct.

Final Arrangement:

Common Explanation:

Reference:
G is second to the right of A.
Neither C nor A faces away from centre.
The persons whose name starts with vowel do not sit on the shorter side of the table.

Inference:
With respect to second hint, we can say that A faces centre.
As per third hint it is clear that A does not sit at the shorter side. Thus following three arrangements are possible.


Reference:
B, who faces centre sits second to the left of E.
J is on the immediate right of F, who is at a gap of two persons from E.
E is adjacent to G.
I is on the immediate left of F.
I is neither adjacent to A nor to C.
The persons whose name starts with vowel do not sit on the shorter side of the table.

Inference:
As per the hints, one more case arises from each of the three cases.

Both the cases get eliminated as I is adjacent to C in both the cases which violates the fifth hint.

Case-2A eliminates as I is adjacent to C, which violates the fifth hint.

Case-3 gets eliminated as I is adjacent to A, which violates the fifth hint.
Thus we are left with case-2 only.
 
Reference:
The immediate neighbors of F face away from centre.
Neither C nor A face away from centre.
Three of them face away from centre while the rest five face towards the centre.
 
Inference:
Thus as per both the hints we can say that C faces centre and J and I face away from centre.
As per third hint, we can determine that the only left person i.e. G also faces away from centre.

SSC GD Constable Mock Test - 5 - Question 6

Study the following line graph and answer the questins.
Exports from Three Companies Over the Years (in Rs. crore)

Q. In which year was the difference between the exports from Companies X and Y the minimum?

Detailed Solution for SSC GD Constable Mock Test - 5 - Question 6

The difference between the exports from the Companies X and Y during the various years are:

In 1993 = Rs. (80 - 30) crores = Rs. 50 crores.

In 1994 = Rs. (60 - 40) crores = Rs. 20 crores.

In 1995 = Rs. (60 - 40) crores = Rs. 20 crores.

In 1996 = Rs. (70 - 60) crores = Rs. 10 crores.

In 1997 = Rs. (100 - 80) crores = Rs. 20 crores.

In 1998 = Rs. (100 - 50) crores = Rs. 50 crores.

In 1999 = Rs. (140 - 120) crores = Rs. 20 crores.

Clearly, the difference is minimum in the year 1996.

SSC GD Constable Mock Test - 5 - Question 11

 A man spends 60% of his income. His income is increased by 20% and his expenditure also increases by 10%. Find the percentage decrease in his saving?

Detailed Solution for SSC GD Constable Mock Test - 5 - Question 11

Answer – a) 10% Explanation : Let initially income is 100. So, expenditure = 60 and saving = 40 now income is increased by 20% i.e. 120. So, expenditure = (70/100)*120 = 84 and saving = 36 so % percent decrease in saving = (4/40)*100 = 10%

SSC GD Constable Mock Test - 5 - Question 12

The sum of three numbers is 98. The ratio of the first two numbers is 2 : 3 and that of the last two numbers is 5 : 8. Find the 2nd number.

Detailed Solution for SSC GD Constable Mock Test - 5 - Question 12

Let the numbers be x, y and z.
x + y + z = 98
Also, x : y = 2 : 3 and y : z = 5 : 8
Therefore, x : y : z = 10 : 15 : 24
Let x = 10k, y = 15k and z = 24k
Then, 10k + 15k + 24k = 98 
 k = 2
The numbers are 20, 30 and 48.
Hence, second number is 30.

With reference to the Earth Observation Satellite (EOS-01), recently launched by the ISRO, consider the following statements:
1. It was launched onboard the Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle (GSLV).
2. It operates in the Sun-synchronous orbit.
3. It was launched from Abdul Kalam Island, Odisha.

Which of the statements given above is/are correct?

Detailed Solution for SSC GD Constable Mock Test - 5 - Question 17
  • India’s Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle, in its fifty-first flight (PSLV-C49), successfully launched EOS-01 along with nine international customer satellites from Satish Dhawan Space Centre (SDSC) SHAR, Sriharikota on November 07, 2020. Hence statements 1 and 3 are not correct.
  • It will operate in Low-earth orbit. A low Earth orbit (LEO) is relatively close to Earth's surface. It is normally at an altitude of less than 1000 km but could be as low as 160 km above Earth – which is low compared to other orbits, but still very far above Earth's surface. Hence statement 2 is correct.
  • EOS-01 is another Radar Imaging Satellite (RISAT) an earth observation satellite that will work together with RISAT-2B and RISAT-2BR1 launched last year, intended for several applications covering agriculture, water resources, urban planning, rural development, mineral prospecting, environment, forestry, ocean resources and disaster management.
SSC GD Constable Mock Test - 5 - Question 18

Export Subsidy for sugar industry is desirable in a year with:

Detailed Solution for SSC GD Constable Mock Test - 5 - Question 18
  1. Sugar Industry is an important agro-based industry that impacts livelihood of 50 million farmers and 5 lakh mill workers. Besides, India is the second largest producer (15% of global production) and the industry has strong linkages with other industries like bio-electricity, chemicals etc.
  2. Currently, the central government announces Fair and Remunerative Price (FRP) at the recommendations of the Commission for Agricultural Costs and Prices (CACP). Besides this, some states declare state specific sugarcane prices called State Advised Prices (SAP), usually higher than the FRP.
  3. Before answering the question, one must understand the concept of sugar balance sheet. At the starting of each sugar season (usually Oct-Nov), sugar industry prepares its balance sheet which reads as:
    • Expected production for current year + carry forward stock from previous year – domestic consumption (including ethanol production) – Exports.

Hence option (b) is the correct answer.

SSC GD Constable Mock Test - 5 - Question 26

Directions: The following question has two blanks. In each blank a preposition has been omitted. Choose the set of prepositions for each blank that best fits in the context of the sentence.

Scientist have _______________ an algorithm that helps robot avoid collisions by accurately calculating what path a human is going to take.

I. Determined
II. Fragmented
III. Riled

Detailed Solution for SSC GD Constable Mock Test - 5 - Question 26

According to the given context we are saying that the scientists have discovered something that is going to understand the movement of the human beings.

Both the first two words are incorrect for the blank and therefore they can be eliminated given the context of the sentence. Riled means making someone annoyed or irritated. Hence this is also eliminated based on the context explained above. So, none of the given words fits in the given blank.

This makes Option E the correct choice among the given options.

SSC GD Constable Mock Test - 5 - Question 27

A sentence has been given in Active/Passive Voice. Out of the four alternatives suggested, select the one which best expresses the same sentence in Passive/Active Voice.

By that time, Vikash Ranjan was elected Mayor of the city by the people for three times.

Detailed Solution for SSC GD Constable Mock Test - 5 - Question 27
  • The 'voice' of a verb tells us whether the subject of the sentence performs or receives the action.
  •  The given sentence is in the passive voice.
  • While changing a sentence from passive voice to active voice, the object and subject are interchanged with each other, i.e. object of the passive sentence becomes the subject of the active sentence and vice versa. Their cases also change accordingly.
  • Here, 'Vikash Ranjan' is the subject, 'was elected' and 'the people' is the object.
  • The given sentence follows the following sentence format and will convert as it has been given next:
  • Passive voice: Subject + was/were (*depending on the subject) + past participle (+ by object).
  • Active voice: Subject (*object of the passive sentence) + simple past verb + object (*subject of the passive sentence).
  • For example, 'The vase was broken by his son.' ⇒ 'His son broke the vase.'
  • So, the given sentence in active is as follows: 'By that time, the people elected Vikash Ranjan Mayor of the city for three times.'

Hence, the correct answer is Option 3.

SSC GD Constable Mock Test - 5 - Question 28

Direction: The sentences given in the question, when properly sequenced, form a coherent paragraph. Each sentence is labeled with a letter. Choose the most logical order of sentences from the given choices to construct a coherent paragraph.

A. With his iconic painting, Margritte showed how art can change our view of this world and give us a fresh opportunity to attempt to define the indefinable.

B. Magritte, who considered himself a thinker who communicated through paint, wanted to prove that images could equal words in the expression of consciousness.

C. In painting this, Margritte was inspired by the definition of a poem by popular literary figures André Breton and Paul Éluard, who declared that “Poetry is a pipe”.

D. One of René Magritte’s most famous paintings, “The Treachery of Images,” features an image of a tobacco pipe with the words “This is not a pipe” underneath it.

Detailed Solution for SSC GD Constable Mock Test - 5 - Question 28

All four sentences given talk of the painter Magritte. Sentence D is the only one that states his full name: René Magritte. So, this is the starting sentence of the paragraph.

Sentence D describes the painting, "“The Treachery of Images". Now, both C and A refer to the painting: C states what inspired Margritte "in painting this", while A states what Margritte achieved with the help of his iconic painting. But clearly, the pronoun reference--this-- in C relates to the painting described in D. So, C follows immediately after D.

Now, Sentence B states what Magritte wanted to prove, whereas A states what he did prove with his painting. So, A follows B.

DCBA is the right order.

The question is " Arrange the sentences in the correct order "
The order is DCBA

Hence, the answer is DCBA
Choice D is the correct answer.

SSC GD Constable Mock Test - 5 - Question 29

Direction: Read the passage and answer the questions that follow:

Paragraph 1: It is difficult to recognise the new generation of terrorists as a mere extension of the earlier lot of radical Islamist terrorists who were influenced by the teachings of Islamist preachers and theologians. There is less theology today and the new age terrorist seems to belong to an altogether different genre of terrorism.

Paragraph 2: A large number of terror attacks in the past three years have been attributed to the handiwork of the Islamic State (IS), and reveal its leaning towards the “nihilism” of Sayyid Qutb. It is this which distinguishes the IS from many of the other radical Islamist groups such as al-Qaeda and its affiliates. The IS’s recruitment techniques, especially its ability to proselytise over the Internet, including “direct to home jihad” as also its more sanguinary brand of violence, set it apart from earlier variants of radical Islamist terror.

Paragraph 3: Even while the IS has gained a great deal of prominence due to its brand of violence, other terror networks have continued to be no less active. For example, Al-Qaeda and its affiliates. Boko Haram in Africa has been responsible for more killings than most people would realise. Closer home, the Afghan Taliban and the Haqqani network have carried out several spectacular attacks inside Afghanistan. The Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) and the Lashkar-e-Jhangvi have carried out several attacks inside Pakistan. Pakistan provides the wherewithal and the support to terror outfits such as the Lashkar-e-Taiba and the Jaish-e-Mohammad to launch well-planned attacks on Indian targets.

Paragraph 4: Most of these outfits continue to adopt earlier methodologies. These have proved no less effective than those followed by the IS. The terror attack on a mosque in North Sinai, Egypt in November this year, which killed over 230 persons, is one such example. In December, the TTP was responsible for a terror attack on an agricultural training institute in Peshawar, Pakistan. Differences among terror outfits do not, however, preclude a complicated pattern of relationships when it comes to operational aspects.

Q. Which of the following is/are synonyms of 'Nihilism' ?
I. Anarchy
II. Atheism
III. Ratification
IV. Optimism

Detailed Solution for SSC GD Constable Mock Test - 5 - Question 29

Nihilism means ‘refusal to believe’.
Anarchy means lawlessness.
Atheism means non belief.
Ratification means approval.
Optimism means hopefulness.
Only Atheism is correct.
Hence, option A is correct.

SSC GD Constable Mock Test - 5 - Question 30

Directions: Out of the given options, choose the one which can substitute for the given phrase/sentence.

Detailed Solution for SSC GD Constable Mock Test - 5 - Question 30
