Hence the correct option will be A.

Read the following sentences and answer the question that follows:
1. I have good knowledge of German.
2. Except for Rajiv, everybody was there.
3. Whole Delhi was celebrating Independence Day.
4. Neither the dog, nor is the cat responsible for this mess.
5. He knows to swim.
6. I look forward to seeing you.
Which of the above are grammatically INCORRECT?

A. 2,4,6
B. 4,5,6
C. 1,3,5
D. 3,5,6
E. 1,2,5

Detailed Solution for Verbal For XAT 2020 - Question 3

In 1, though the sentence "I have good knowledge of German" is correct as a response to a question, when used by itself, the appropriate phrasing is "I have good knowledge of the German language".

In 3, "whole" should be replaced with "the whole of" when used before a proper noun (Delhi).

In 5, similar to 1, the correct usage is "He knows how to swim".

So the incorrect options are 135; hence the answer is C.

Verbal For XAT 2020 - Question 4

Which of the following is a grammatically CORRECT sentence?

A. You had better told her everything, or else you will lose a friend.
B. You had better told her everything, or else you would lose a friend.
C. You had better tell her everything, or else you will lose a friend.
D. You better had tell her everything, or else you will lose a friend.
E. You better had tell her everything, or else you would lose a friend.

Detailed Solution for Verbal For XAT 2020 - Question 4

The first part of the sentence deals with the correct usage of the word "had" and "tell". "had better" is a semi modal verb (used to express need or necessity) used to give strong advice and is the correct usage.

Since "had better" implies advice to be followed, the verb that follows cannot be in the past tense, so the correct selection is "tell".

In the second part of the sentence, the choices are between will and would, considering the first part of the sentence, we need future perfect simple tense, in this case, "will".

Hence the correct option is C.

Verbal For XAT 2020 - Question 5

Read the passage below and answer the 3 associated questions:

Once, during a concert of cathedral organ music, as I sat getting gooseflesh amid that tsunami of sound, I was struck with a thought: for a medieval peasant, this must have been the loudest human-made sound they ever experienced, awe-inspiring in now-unimaginable ways. No wonder they signed up for the religion being proffered. And now we are constantly pummeled with sounds that dwarf quaint organs. Once, hunter-gatherers might chance upon honey from a beehive and thus briefly satisfy a hardwired food craving. And now we have hundreds of carefully designed commercial foods that supply a burst of sensation unmatched by some lowly natural food. Once, we had lives that, amid considerable privation, also offered numerous subtle, hard-won pleasures. And now we have drugs that cause spasms of pleasure and dopamine release a thousandfold higher than anything stimulated in our old drug-free world.

An emptiness comes from this combination of over-the-top non natural sources of reward and the inevitability of habituation; this is because unnaturally strong explosions of synthetic experience and sensation and pleasure evoke unnaturally strong degrees of habituation. This has two consequences. First, soon we barely notice the fleeting whispers of pleasure caused by leaves in autumn, or by the lingering glance of the right person, or by the promise of reward following a difficult, worthy task. And the other consequence is that we eventually habituate to even those artificial deluges of intensity. If we were designed by engineers, as we consumed more, we’d desire less. But our frequent human tragedy is that the more we consume, the hungrier we get. More and faster and stronger. What was an unexpected pleasure yesterday is what we feel entitled to today, and what won’t be enough tomorrow.

Q. Which of the following options BEST reflects the author’s understanding of human perception of pleasure?

A. Pleasure comes from whatever we are exposed to for the first time
B. Pleasure comes from what we are deprived of
C. Pleasure comes from what appears to be a valuable discovery or invention
D. Pleasure comes from what is perceived to be extraordinary
E. Pleasure comes from what we are accustomed to

Detailed Solution for Verbal For XAT 2020 - Question 5

The passage conveys the idea that what is "What was an unexpected pleasure yesterday is what we feel entitled to today, and what won’t be enough tomorrow", this is because once it happens it is no longer unexpected or extraordinary. So pleasure comes from what is perceived to be exceptional or extraordinary. Hence option D.

Verbal For XAT 2020 - Question 6

Save

Going by the author, which of the following options BEST answers the question “how can one sustain the pleasure derived from any experience?"

A. Training to appreciate sweet whispers and fleeting moments of joy to sustain pleasure
B. Periodic displeasure with synthetic experiences leads to sustaining pleasure
C. The harder to replicate, the more sustainable the pleasure from that experience
D. The closer the experience is to nature, the more sustainable it is
E. Awareness of a habituation moment helps sustain pleasure

Detailed Solution for Verbal For XAT 2020 - Question 6

Throughout the passage, the author puts forward the idea that the easy availability of a source makes it impossible for us to savour the pleasure for long. Hence to sustain the joy, it must be derived from a source that is hard to replicate. In option C, this is the exact idea being conveyed.

So the correct option is C.

Verbal For XAT 2020 - Question 7

Save

Which of the following options BEST describes “emptiness” as described in the passage?

A. A feeling, evoked by the carefully designed commercial foods, alluring us to them
B. A feeling of absence of sources of pleasure when extant sources are in abundance
C. Yearning for newer sources of pleasure when extant sources are in abundance
D. A feeling of weariness around extant sources of pleasure that are in abundance
E. The inevitability of habituation that one gets from repeated consumption of man-made foods or drugs

Detailed Solution for Verbal For XAT 2020 - Question 7

Emptiness, by definition, relates to the lack or absence of something, here "unnaturally strong explosions of synthetic experience and sensation and pleasure evoke unnaturally strong degrees of habituation."

Hence the correct option is B.

Verbal For XAT 2020 - Question 8

Read the following paragraph and answer the question that follows:

“People who work in law, hotel and food services, and technology were found the most likely to skip breakfast daily, according to a recent study. As for people who do eat breakfast and prefer a savoury type (like an egg), the study found they tend to make more money, be night owls and prefer cats over dogs. If you prefer a sweet breakfast like a donut you tend to be a morning person, like romcoms and are a dog person”.

Which of the following can be BEST inferred based on the above paragraph?

A. IT professionals, who eat eggs for breakfast, are more likely to make more money than their counterparts who eat donuts for breakfast.
B. Lawyers, who eat savory breakfast daily, make more money than those lawyers who have early breakfast daily.
C. Hoteliers who eat regular breakfast are more likely to make more money than those who watch romcoms regularly.
D. Among regular breakfast eaters, early risers have more sugar in their breakfast than late risers.
E. A preference for cats as pets over dogs, usually, is a result of eating eggs for breakfast daily.

Detailed Solution for Verbal For XAT 2020 - Question 8

While comparing any two cases, the parameters should be comparable as per the given statements. Option B is incorrect as savoury (salty or spicy) breakfast cannot be compared with early breakfast. Similarly, C is wrong as there is no correlation between being making more money and their tendency to eat breakfast regularly. As for option D, in the passage, it is stated that people who prefer sweet breakfast tend to be an early riser and not the other way around, hence incorrect. As far as E is concerned again, there is no mention of preference of pets being a direct result of the choice of food. In option A all the relations are directly mentioned in the passage and hence is the right option.

Some say the world will end in fire,

Some say in ice.

From what I’ve tasted of desire

I hold with those who favor fire.

But, if it had to perish twice,

A. Greed can destroy one’s world.
B. Both desire and hate can create self-doubt.
C. Hatred destroys what desire cannot.
D. Desire overpowers hatred to control humans.
E. Ambition is more powerful than envy.

Detailed Solution for Verbal For XAT 2020 - Question 9

Of the options, B C & D talk about the emotions already discussed in the poem.

Option E makes a comparison of two emotions which cannot be inferred from the poem.

Option A talks about greed, which can be considered a product of desire and hence is the apt choice.

Verbal For XAT 2020 - Question 11

Save

Read the following paragraph and answer the question that follows:

In a 2017 survey of 3,915 American workers, my colleagues and I found that workers report experiencing a sizable “voice gap” at work — that is, a gap between how much say or influence they feel they ought to have and how much they actually have — on topics such as wages, working conditions, fair treatment, and input into how they do their work.

And now a second study, I have just completed with a new team, finds that today’s workers want forms of voice and representation that go well beyond traditional unions.

Q. Based on the above paragraph, which of the following options would you agree with the MOST?

A. The first study defines the concept and the second study uses the concept in a specific context.
B. The first study shows the intensity of the problem and the second study shows limitations of the existing solutions.
C. The first study shows the frustration of the American workers and the second study shows the inability of unions in addressing them.
D. The first study focuses on the need for fair representation and the second study discusses forms of representation.
E. The first study highlights the existence of the problem and the second study highlights the need for new ways of solving it.

Detailed Solution for Verbal For XAT 2020 - Question 11

The first study identifies the existence of a problem, and it is that the voice of the workers is not given the desired importance. The second study shows the need for new ways, beyond traditional ones such as unions, to solve the problem.

Hence the correct option is E.

Verbal For XAT 2020 - Question 12

Which of the following options is CLOSEST to the meaning of the phrase “labile sense of self”?

A.
History does not confine the self.
B.
Humans are not meant to be shunted around.
C.
The self adapts to a new geography.
D.
Geography does not imprison the self.
E.
The self does not belong to a particular geography.

Detailed Solution for Verbal For XAT 2020 - Question 12

The word labile refers to the ability to the tendency to alter or adapt quickly. So the phrase "labile sense of self" concerning refugees and exile means the ability of a refugee to adapt to new geography.

Hence the correct option is C.

Verbal For XAT 2020 - Question 13

Save

Based on the passage, which of the following will the author DISAGREE the MOST with?

A.
One does not have to cross frontiers to become a refugee.
B.
Intellectuals find the notion of exile irrelevant.
C.
Refugees symbolize exploitation and abuse of our times.
D.
Being a refugee is a state of mind.
E.
A feeling of alienation in modernizing societies is a common phenomenon.

Detailed Solution for Verbal For XAT 2020 - Question 13

The statement "one can choose to be seduced by the ‘pull’ of self-induced displacement rather than be ‘pushed’ by an oppressive or violent system at home" is opposing the idea that refugees always symbolises exploitation and abuses of our time.

The other options either agree with the views of the author or are not mentioned in the passage. We cannot use ungiven information to make conclusions.

Hence the correct option is C.

Verbal For XAT 2020 - Question 14

Save

Project Affected Families (PAF) are those that are physically displaced due to construction of a large project (dam, factory etc.) in an area where the PAF traditionally resided.

With insights from the passage, what would a project proponent, dealing with PAF, reading the following options agree the MOST with?

A.
PAF as a concept is irrelevant since human displacement is a historical phenomenon.
B.
Industry and government should care equally about profits and people.
C.
Don’t worry about PAF, they will eventually resettle and rehabilitate.
D.
Emotional estrangement of PAF is not an area of concern.
E.
PAF do not have a labile sense of self.

Detailed Solution for Verbal For XAT 2020 - Question 14

From the sentence "They also represent a state of mind, a form of psychological displacement that has become endemic to modernizing societies" it is clear that many people now consider refugees as a common occurrence or byproduct of development.

Hence emotional estrangement of the PAF is not going to a concern for a project proponent.

The other options are either irrelevant to the concern of someone who supports the project or is unrelated to the context.

So the correct choice is D.

Read the following paragraph and answer the question that follows:

In Australia, jellyfish are most common between November and May. In Hawaii, jellyfish often show up on south-facing beaches eight days after a full moon. In the Mediterranean, blooms usually appear in the summer. Unfortunately for travellers, there is no worldwide database for recent jellyfish sightings, and tourism officials are sometimes reluctant to publicize jellyfish swarms out of fear that such news will scare off visitors.

Q. Which of the following can be BEST concluded from the above paragraph?

A. Celestial bodies have an influence on jellyfish sightings.
B. Economic interests influence security advisories.
C. Tourism officials hide the truth about jellyfish sightings.
D. Seasonal variations in the marine temperature impact jellyfish sightings.
E. Tourists visiting north-facing beaches in Hawaii do not spot jellyfish.

Detailed Solution for Verbal For XAT 2020 - Question 15

While some of the other options can be assumed indirectly from the passage, "In Hawaii, jellyfish often show up on south-facing beaches eight days after a full moon" clearly indicate that celestial bodies (moon) affect jellyfish sightings.

Hence we can conclude only option A from the passage.

Verbal For XAT 2020 - Question 16

Read the following paragraph and answer the question that follows:

Global surface temperatures in 2019 are on track to be either the second or third warmest since records began in the mid-1800s, behind only 2016 and possibly 2017. On top of the long-term warming trend, temperatures in 2019 have been buoyed by a moderate El Niño event that is likely to persist through the rest of the year.

Q. Which of the following statements can be BEST inferred based on the above paragraph?

A. El Niño event causes global surface temperatures to rise in the long-term.
B. A moderate El Niño event increases temperature more than a weak El Niño event.
C. El Niño events did not affect temperatures in 2016 and 2017.
D. The long-term trend of global surface temperatures is unrelated to El Niño.
E. Global surface temperatures are increasing at a constant rate for three years.

Detailed Solution for Verbal For XAT 2020 - Question 16

From the passage, we can understand that El Niño is an event that has affected the global surface temperatures only in 2019 and that it is likely to persist through the rest of the year. So it is unlikely that it will have any long term effects.

There is no comparison of moderate and weak El Niño in the passage.

There is no mention of El Niño occurrence in 2016 and 2017, therefore, it would be incorrect to assume anything.

From the data given it is clear that in 2019 the temperature, though high, is less than that of 2016 and 2017 so it is not true that global surface temperatures are increasing at a constant rate for the last three years.

Hence the correct option is D.

Read the following paragraph and answer the question that follows:

If we can send a human to the Moon, why can’t we build sustainable cities? Defeat cancer? Tackle climate change? So, go the rallying cries inspired by one of humanity’s greatest achievements, the US effort that put Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin on the Moon on 20 July 1969.

Q. Which of the following statements, if true, BEST communicates the intent of the paragraph?

A. America’s moonshot was more about race to the moon and less about solving problems.
B. America’s moonshot initiative was mainly a response to USSR’s competing initiative.
C. The reason we celebrate 1969 moonshot is precisely because nothing significant has been done in that domain since then.
D. Moonshot has a definitive ownership, whereas creating sustainable cities and curing cancer are public-good problems.
E. The complexity of developing sustainable cities and curing cancer is far more than sending a human to the moon.

Detailed Solution for Verbal For XAT 2020 - Question 17

From the passage, it is clear that despite having sent man to the moon, we are yet to come up with a solution for cancer or the development of sustainable cities. Hence from the paragraph, we can understand the intention to state that the lateral are more complex issues than the former. Therefore the correct answer is E.

Read the following paragraph and answer the question that follows:

When asked what the politician will do for the nation’s economy, he attacked the opponent by saying, “Look at that face! Would anyone vote for that? I mean, she’s a woman, and I’m not supposed to say bad things, but really, folks, come on. Are we serious?

Nevertheless, we’re going to defeat ISIS. ISIS happened a number of years ago in a vacuum that was left because of bad judgment.

And I will tell you, I will take care of ISIS.”

Q. Which of the following statements BEST describes the politician’s intent?

A. To make an emotional appeal to the voters
B. To appeal to the macho voters and use fear as a tool to lure voters
C. To divert attention towards ISIS as compared to the economy
D. To make a sexist remark and share his concern about an important issue
E. To digress and argue that security is more important than economy

Verbal For XAT 2020 - Question 19

Which of the following statements BEST captures the essence of the passage?

A.
Knowledge shall no longer be evaluated by its truth but its commercial value.
B.
Translation of knowledge into machine language exteriorised it.
C.
Suppliers and users of knowledge have become its producers and consumers.
D.
Knowledge shall be exclusively produced to be sold.
E.
Market forces have taken over the process of knowledge production.

Detailed Solution for Verbal For XAT 2020 - Question 19

The author is trying to convey the idea that knowledge has gradually become a commercial entity that is no longer held accountable by the value of truth it holds. From various instances in the passage like "knowledge is and will be produced in order to be sold, it is and will be consumed in order to be valorised in a new production" infer this message.

Option B is irrelevant to the message of the passage, while C, D & E do not capture the essence entirely.

Hence the correct answer is option A.

Verbal For XAT 2020 - Question 20

Save

Based on the passage, which of the following statements can be BEST inferred?

A.
For knowledge to acquire an exchange-value, it should cease to have a use-value.
B.
Acquisition of knowledge need no longer transform its recipient.
C.
The locus of creation and accumulation of knowledge has shifted.
D.
Knowledge as a transactional commodity is indispensable to productive power.
E.
Mental discipline is not necessary for learning anymore.

Detailed Solution for Verbal For XAT 2020 - Question 20

The idea that knowledge no longer transforms the recipient can be inferred from the statement "The old principle that the acquisition of knowledge is indissociable from the training (Bildung) of minds, or even of individuals, is becoming obsolete and will become ever more so." While the other options contradict the statement or are irrelevant to the idea of the passage, option B states the same.

Hence B is the correct option.

Which of the following options will the author agree the MOST with?

A.
A daughter of a lawyer must become a lawyer.
B.
A person with no passion for singing, if trained, will sing perfectly.
C.
To get promoted, an unempathetic manager can learn to display empathy.
D.
To teach poetry, one must not be a poet.
E.
MBA program has a high exchange-value but zero use-value.

Detailed Solution for Verbal For XAT 2020 - Question 21

The author tries to convey the idea that knowledge is no longer evaluated by its truth or originality but rather by its value as a commodity. None except is option C goes well with this idea. In C, the manager hides his true self to get promoted, here rather than revealing the truth the manager puts forward a self which has more value as a commodity in the job industry.

Verbal For XAT 2020 - Question 22

Which of the following options, if true, BEST makes the author’s assertion on pointless jobs erroneous?

A.
Workers who carry out pointless jobs are more loyal to the organization than others.
B.
Pointless jobs add less value to the organization than the jobs of those who are making or fixing things.
C.
Pointless jobs decrease the efficiency of the organization since they replace those who are making, fixing and moving things.
D.
Organizations with a higher number of pointless jobs are more profitable than those with less.
E.
Even though the rate of increase in pointless jobs is higher, their absolute number on an average is lower than that of meaningful jobs.

Detailed Solution for Verbal For XAT 2020 - Question 22

In point put forward by the author in the passage is that despite being an unprofitable endeavour, organisations keep employing people for pointless jobs to =keep the masses occupied and prevent them from meddling with the status quo.

Of the statements in the option, D if correct would mean that organisations are minting profits by employing people for pointless jobs, this would directly contradict with the point put forth by the author. None of the other options makes a relevant stand to debunk the author's views.

Hence D is the correct option.

Verbal For XAT 2020 - Question 23

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

A.
The ruling class abhors leisure so much that they encourage organizations to create unwanted jobs.
B.
Keeping people employed for longer hours serves the plans of the ruling class.
C.
Work as a moral right is the design of the ruling class to cut down on leisure.
D.
For political reasons, profit-making firms sometimes indulge in non-profitable decisions.
E.
Pointless jobs are here to stay, regardless of whether they are necessary or not.

Detailed Solution for Verbal For XAT 2020 - Question 23

From the statement "The ruling class has figured out that a happy and productive population with free time on their hands is a mortal danger", it can be inferred that keeping people employed for more extended hours serves the plans of the ruling class. Moreover, there is no clear indication for any of the other options to be inferred. Hence the correct answer is B.

People unwilling to submit to an intense work discipline deserve nothing.
D.
Keynes predicted that a happy and productive workforce is a force for the good.
E.
Peace and order in society require humans to be engaged in some activity most of the time, regardless of its meaninglessness.

Detailed Solution for Verbal For XAT 2020 - Question 24

The author tries to understand why there are so many pointless jobs when there should be none in an efficient capitalist system. He concludes that this is because the ruling class create these jobs to keep the masses occupied as they are a danger to the existing state of affairs. The author states, "The ruling class has figured out that a happy and productive population with free time on their hands is a mortal danger."

Hence the most appropriate answer is E.
