Detailed Solution for EPFO Assistant Mains Mock Test - 8 - Question 2

EPFO Assistant Mains Mock Test - 8 - Question 3

In this question below is given a statement followed by two courses of action. On the basis of the information given in the statement, you have to assume everything in the statement to be true then decide which of the suggested courses of actions is worth pursuing.
Statement: 
Protests across the world have forced the United States government to drop the Bills that seek to curb copyright violation.
Courses of Action:
I. The government should wait for the rebel feelings to cool down, and should introduce and get the Bill passed some months later.
II. The government should address the genuine concerns of the public at large by engaging the stakeholders and public in debates and informed discussions.

Detailed Solution for EPFO Assistant Mains Mock Test - 8 - Question 3

I would be the wrong step to take as it will only hold the protests for a limited period of time, and the protests might resurrect, probably on a larger scale, if the Bill is passed without addressing the concerns of various stakeholders and general public. This is also the reason why II would be a desirable course of action.

EPFO Assistant Mains Mock Test - 8 - Question 4

In this question below is given a statement followed by two courses of action. On the basis of the information given in the statement, you have to assume everything in the statement to be true then decide which of the suggested courses of actions is worth pursuing.
Statement: 
Entrepreneurs are the backbone of any country. They increase employment, invest in innovation and bring prosperity. India is lagging behind the other developing countries in developing and fostering entrepreneurship.
Courses of Action: 
I. Indian government should open more colleges and practice schools for entrepreneurship.
II. An upper limit must be set on the companies coming to colleges for placements, so that more students are left unemployed and switch to entrepreneurship.
III. Entrepreneurship as a subject must be made compulsory in all the schools and colleges, which will result in an increasing understanding of the subject, and will create more and better entrepreneurs.

Detailed Solution for EPFO Assistant Mains Mock Test - 8 - Question 4

Since India is lagging behind others in developing entrepreneurship, opening practice schools and colleges dedicated to fostering entrepreneurs would be a sensible and practical idea. II is outrightly ludicrous. III also is not the correct course of action to follow as entrepreneurship, as compared to other subjects, is learnt on field and through practice. Better entrepreneurs cannot be created by teaching entrepreneurship in schools (read this in light of the first course of action).

EPFO Assistant Mains Mock Test - 8 - Question 5

Which of the following symbols should be placed in the blank spaces respectively *(in the same order, from left to right) in order to complete the given expression in such a manner that makes the expression ‘K > N’ and ‘M > O’ definitely false?

K__L__M__N__O

Detailed Solution for EPFO Assistant Mains Mock Test - 8 - Question 5

 

1) <, <, >, =

⇒ K < L < M > N = O

K > N ⇒ it is possible true as we can’t determine relationship between them.

M > O ⇒ True

2) <, =, =, >

⇒ K < L = M = N > O

K > N ⇒ False

M > O ⇒ True

3) <, =, =, <

⇒ K < L = M = N < O

K > N ⇒ False

M > O ⇒ False (as O > M)

4) ≥, =, =, ≤

⇒ K ≥ L = M = N ≤ O

K ≥ N ⇒ Possible true

M > O ⇒ False

5) >, >, =, <

⇒ K > L > M = N < O

K > N ⇒ True

M > O ⇒ False

Hence, “<, =, =, <” are set of symbols which will make ‘K > N’ and ‘M > O’ is false in equation K__L__M__N__O

The total number of students in level VIII

The total number of students in level IX

The total number of students in level VIII and level IX together = 330 + 396 = 726

The total number of girls in level VIII and level IX together = 306 (Given)

The total number of boys in level VIII and level IX together = 726 – 306 = 420

If the total number of boys in level VIII is “x” and the total number of boys in level IX is “x + 40” (Given),

So, x + x + 40 = 420

2x = 380

x = 190

∴ The total number of boys in level VIII is 190.

EPFO Assistant Mains Mock Test - 8 - Question 24

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 EPFO Assistant Mains Mock Test - 8 - Question 24

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.
