LIC AAO Mock Test - 10 - Question 1

Direction: Read the sentence to find out whether there is any error in it. The error, if any, will be in one part of the sentence. The number of that part is the answer. If there is no error, the answer is (E). Ignore errors of punctuation, if any.

Within two years, (A)/ the sisters had (B)/ losted their parents in (C) a tragic accident. (D)/ No error (E)

Detailed Solution for LIC AAO Mock Test - 10 - Question 1
The error lies in the third part of the sentence.

In the given sentence, the usage of tenses is inappropriate. Here, verbs are discussed here, i.e. lost. Remember that, 'lost' remains same in all the tenses. Thus, replace 'losted' with 'lost'.

Correct Sentence- Within two years, the sister had lost their parents in a tragic accident.

Hence, the correct option is (C).

LIC AAO Mock Test - 10 - Question 2

Direction: Read the sentence to find out whether there is any error in it. The error, if any, will be in one part of the sentence. The number of that part is the answer. If there is no error, the answer is (E). Ignore errors of punctuation, if any.

If I would have realised (A)/ what a bad driver you were, (B)/ I would not have (C)/ come with you. (D)/ No error (E)

Detailed Solution for LIC AAO Mock Test - 10 - Question 2
In this sentence, it is important to understand the properties of conditionals (if-clause statements). Now, the correct construction says that if ‘would + have + 3rd form of the verb is used in the main clause, which in this case is ‘would not have come’. Then, the if clause should contain had + 3rd form of verb, which is not the case in this sentence. So, ‘would have realised’ shall be replaced by ‘had realised’.

The correct sentence is :-

If I had realized what a bad driver you were, I would not have come with you.

Hence, the correct option is (A).

LIC AAO Mock Test - 10 - Question 3

Direction: Read the sentence to find out whether there is any error in it. The error, if any, will be in one part of the sentence. The number of that part is the answer. If there is no error, the answer is (E). Ignore errors of punctuation, if any.

The chairman had not taken (A)/ any decision until (B)/ he had studied (C)/ the case thoroughly. (D)/ No error(E)

Detailed Solution for LIC AAO Mock Test - 10 - Question 3
In this sentence, there are two action verbs. The action verb tells us what the subject of our clause or sentence is doing-physically or mentally.

E.g. - Marie walked to school. (Walked tells us what Marie was doing.)

E.g. - Louis thought about the math problem. (Thought tells us what Louis was doing (mentally).)

First action verb – “he had studied” is the past perfect tense. Second action verb – “The chairman had not taken”

Since the first action word is in past perfect tense, the second action word should also be in simple past tense to maintain it's past perfect sense meaning i.e. to indicate something that has occurred in the simple past contrary to past perfect, which shows the past of the past (he had studied).

The correct sentence is:

The chairman did not take any decision until he had studied the case thoroughly.

Hence, the correct option is (A).

LIC AAO Mock Test - 10 - Question 4

Direction: Read the sentence to find out whether there is any error in it. The error, if any, will be in one part of the sentence. The number of that part is the answer. If there is no error, the answer is (E). Ignore errors of punctuation, if any.

I would rather (A) / pay for my (B)/ education than financial (C) / aid. (D) / No error (E)

Detailed Solution for LIC AAO Mock Test - 10 - Question 4
On analysing the sentence, we find that it is based on the parallel structure problem. Parallel structure means using the same pattern of words to show that two or more words or ideas are of equal importance.

When analyse part (A) and (B) of the sentence we find that a noun (education) and a verb (pay), but in part (C) and (D) of the sentence, there is only a noun (financial aid). We can’t find any verb out there.

The correct sentence is:-

I would rather pay for my education than receive/get financial aid.

Hence, the correct option is (C).

LIC AAO Mock Test - 10 - Question 5

The world bank wants to invest in new projects, so the use of the preposition “under” is incorrect. It will be replaced by the preposition “in”, i.e., “financing in new projects.”

The correct sentence is:

The World Bank has announced actions it plans to take as part of a comprehensive, global response to the ongoing food security crisis, with up to $30 billion in financing in existing and new projects.

Detailed Solution for LIC AAO Mock Test - 10 - Question 6
Here the use of the preposition “under” is correct. As we can infer from the line that tension arises due to deployments from China, the preposition “under” will be replaced with “by”, to make the sentence correct.

The correct sentence is:

The spokesperson pointed out that External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar has already told the Chinese side that frictions and tensions arising from the deployments by China could not be reconciled.

The correct sentence is:

Reliance India’s biggest retailer will acquire dozens of small grocery and non-food brands targeting to build its own $6.5 billion consumer goods business to challenge foreign giants like Unilever, according to the sources.

Detailed Solution for LIC AAO Mock Test - 10 - Question 9
The sentence suggests that the blank should contain a noun as it is used with the article 'the'.

LIC AAO Mock Test - 10 - Question 11

Direction: A sentence with one blank is given, indicating that something has been omitted. Choose the word that fits the blank appropriately.

We ________ to thank intrepid journalists, who have painstakingly documented Facebook’s wrongdoings.

Detailed Solution for LIC AAO Mock Test - 10 - Question 11
Options (A), (D) and (E) can be straightaway discarded because ‘many’ is used for ‘countable nouns’. ‘Many’ denotes ‘large number’, whereas ‘much’ denotes ‘large quantity’ of an ‘uncountable noun’.

Since journalists are to be thanked for their efforts and support, ‘much’ must be used.

The sentence is in Present tense. Thus, ‘had’ is incorrect.

‘Have much’ must be used to fill the blank.

The rest of the options are cancelled as they make the sentence meaningless and are not in agreement with the tense of the sentence.

LIC AAO Mock Test - 10 - Question 23

Direction: Read the following passage carefully and the question given below it. Certain words/phrases are given in underlined to help you locate them while answering some of the question.

The number of seats for higher education in Delhi has increased to 1.5 lakh from 1.1 lakh in the year 2015, said Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Friday. The Chief Minister said that quality higher education was one of the key pillars of the government’s philosophy.

“There is no developed country in the world, which does not have a robust education system. The path for India to become a developed nation is to provide good education to our children irrespective of their socio-economic background,” Kejriwal said.

The Chief Minister said this after laying the foundation stone of two new campuses for Ambedkar University. He further stated that the government is working towards bridging the gap between the number of students passing out from class 12 every year and the number of seats available in colleges of Delhi.

“When we came to power in Delhi, only 1.1 lakh seats were available in the colleges in Delhi and that has now improved to 1.5 lakhs. A total of 2.5 lakh students pass out of Class 12 each year, so a gap still remains and many students have to drop out of education after Class 12. We need to cater to 1 lakh more students,” Chief Minister said.

In order to enable the needy students to get employment, we are planning for world-class skill centers and skill-based courses through which they can directly enter the job market, Kejriwal added.

The two new campuses of Ambedkar University are set to come up in Rohini and Dheerpur village. With the completion of the two new campuses, the strength of Ambedkar University is set to increase to 8000 as compared to the existing strength of 3400.

Deputy Chief Minister and Minister of Higher Education Manish Sisodia said that Universities were being encouraged to focus on research, vital for governments to plan. “Universities and governments do not just have a financial relationship. Universities have to lead the government in the right direction by providing important insights and the government has to provide leadership to universities and back them for them to flourish,” said Deputy chief minister Sisodia.

Q. Which of these is similar in meaning to the word ''robust''?

Detailed Solution for LIC AAO Mock Test - 10 - Question 23
