Bank of India PO Mock Test - 9 - Question 8

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. Good writers use more verbs.

B. However, it is hard to write without verbs.

C. The reason is that if unnecessary words are reduced, the verb-percentage goes up as a mathematical necessity.

D. So “use verbs” is not really good advice; writers have to use verbs, and trying to add extra ones would not turn out well.

Detailed Solution for Bank of India PO Mock Test - 9 - Question 8

Sentence C talks of how verb usage goes up when unnecessary words are reduced. This ties in with sentence A which talks of how good writers use more verbs. It is also clear C follows A.

Sentence B says it is hard to write without verbs. Sentence D adds to this saying that "use verbs" is hence not good advice. Therefore D follows B.

By looking at the sentences we see that sentence A makes a good start to the paragraph.

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

Hence, the answer is ACBD
Choice B is the correct answer.

Bank of India PO Mock Test - 9 - Question 9

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. During the 24-hour darkness of the austral autumn and winter, the South Pole Telescope operates nonstop under impeccable conditions for astronomy.

B. The atmosphere is thin (the pole is more than 9,300 feet above sea level, 9,000 of which are ice), stable (due to the absence of the heating and cooling effects of a rising and setting Sun) and the pole has some of the calmest winds on Earth, blowing almost always from the same direction.

C. “The South Pole has the harshest environment on Earth, but also the most benign,” says William Holzapfel, a University of California at Berkeley astrophysicist, the on-site lead researcher at the South Pole Telescope.

D. From an astronomer’s perspective, not until the Sun goes down and stays down—March through September— does the South Pole get “benign.”

Detailed Solution for Bank of India PO Mock Test - 9 - Question 9

C talks of the South Pole being benign. D refers to the word benign in quotes. So, D should come after C, and quite possibly immediately after C.

The idea conveyed here is that the South Pole has the most benign weather and it is benign from March to September. So we can directly eliminate choice (d).

Sentence C makes a better choice for starting the paragraph than A.

Sentence A talks of impeccable conditions for astronomy and B explains what it is.

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

Hence, the answer is CDAB
Choice C is the correct answer.

Bank of India PO Mock Test - 9 - Question 10

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.The oldest fossil grasses are just 70 million years old, although grass may have evolved a bit earlier than that.

B. There have been land plants for 465 million years, yet there were no flowers for over two-thirds of that time.

C. The equally-familiar grasses appeared even more recently.

D. Flowering plants only appeared in the middle of the dinosaur era.

Detailed Solution for Bank of India PO Mock Test - 9 - Question 10

Sentences B and D talk of flowers and flowering plants. Sentence B talks of how land plants existed without flowers for several millions of years. Sentence D talks of when flowering plants appeared. It is clear D follows B.

Sentence C speaks of “equally familiar grasses"?. So obviously, some other example- in this case, flowering plants- precedes this.

Sentences A and C talk of the evolution of grasses. A follows C.

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

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

Bank of India PO Mock Test - 9 - Question 11

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. Patrilineal ownership of lands and the culture of dowry attached to it have turned daughters into bad debts.

B. The control of such castes on local politics aggravates masculine hubris.

C. The bigotry of our village culture and polity is intrinsically linked to a control of land and agriculture.

D. Land makes certain castes ‘kingly’ in rural communities.

Detailed Solution for Bank of India PO Mock Test - 9 - Question 11

Sentence C talks of the intolerance that marks the village culture and polity. We see that this is the main idea of the paragraph.

Sentence D talks of some castes being considered “kingly"? in rural communities. Sentence C talks of the control of “these castes"? on local politics and how it aggravates masculine pride. So C comes after D. Both of these sentences substantiate the idea of bigotry that is made by sentence C.

Sentence A talks of the patrilineal system of passing ownership of lands and system of linking dowry to land ownership turning daughters to be regarded as “bad debts"?. This sentence substantiates the point make by sentence C.

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

Hence, the answer is CDBA
Choice C is the correct answer.

Bank of India PO Mock Test - 9 - Question 12

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. The Mandate of Heaven indicated divine approval of a king’s right to rule.

B. In other words, the Mandate of Heaven gave divine ruling authority to kings that lived a moral life, administered justice, and protected the welfare of his people.

C. Whereas Medieval Europeans legitimized their ruling authority by the divine right of kings, Confucian societies used a similar concept called the Mandate of Heaven.

D. However, it differed from the divine right of kings in that Heaven’s endorsement depends upon the virtuous conduct of the ruler.

Detailed Solution for Bank of India PO Mock Test - 9 - Question 12

We have two possible starting sentences for the paragraph- A and C.

However, we see that C introduces the phrase “Mandate of Heaven"?, whereas A tells us what it is about. So A follows C and possibly comes immediately after C.

Sentence B starts with “in other words"?. So which sentence is it paraphrasing? Not A, this sentence only declares that the Mandate of Heaven indicated divine approval of a king’s right to rule. Sentence B paraphrases sentence D, which talks of the right to rule depending on the virtuous conduct of the ruler. So B follows D.

The correct sentence order is hence CADB.

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

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

Bank of India PO Mock Test - 9 - Question 13

Directions: A sentence is given below with three words highlighted in the underline. Select the option that gives the correct set of words. In case the sentence is correct, select ‘No replacement required’.

Detailed Solution for Bank of India PO Mock Test - 9 - Question 13

If you had a short-term goal, then you (1) provide a fixed-income (2) product, not a market- (3) linked product; to (4) need return predictability.

Detailed Solution for Bank of India PO Mock Test - 9 - Question 14

The statement is regarding the financial goals of a person and also the way in which you should handle your finances based on your goals in life. It is regarding aligning your investments with your goals. Short term goals require fixed income products whereas long term goals can be fulfilled with market related products. If we replace 1 and 4, the sentence will become meaningful. No other replacement is required in the sentence to make it meaningful.

The correct sentence would be:

If you had a short-term goal, then you need a fixed-income product, not a market-linked product; to provide return predictability.

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

Bank of India PO Mock Test - 9 - Question 15

According to the context of the given statement it is regarding the fact that the person moved away but the other person kept on hurling abuses. Thankfully the auto had arrived by then and this person could leave in that without further inconvenience. If we replace 1-2, it will become correct but then the later part is not making sense at all. For that we again have to replace 3-4 and then only we can see that we have got a grammatically correct sentence that has some meaning as well.

The correct sentence would be:

He continued to create a scene even as I moved away and got into my auto that had thankfully arrived by then.

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

My father / can carry me / on his shoulders / when I was a child.

Detailed Solution for Bank of India PO Mock Test - 9 - Question 19

For decade company which make soap, lotions and perfumes have relied on a chemical called Bourgeonal.

Detailed Solution for Bank of India PO Mock Test - 9 - Question 26

The original sentence is incorrect.

Reason:

1st. The phrase ‘For decades’ and not ‘for decade’ is used to denote a very long time. Therefore, ‘decade’ must be replaced by ‘decades’ here.

2nd. As the verb ‘make’ is used in its plural form, it’s clear that the subject has to be plural too. Therefore, the noun ‘company’ must be replaced by ‘companies’ here.

3rd. As we need a restrictive relative pronoun in the given case, ‘that’ should be used in place of ‘which’ here.

Therefore, among the given choices option C replaces the bold part most appropriately.

The sentence after replacement becomes:

For decades companies that make soap, lotions and perfumes have relied on a chemical called Bourgeonal.

Option C is hence the correct answer.

The sentence after replacement becomes:

As far as I know them, they all are atheist yet they observe fast during the Navratre.

Option C is hence the correct answer.
