APSET Paper 1 Mock Test - 8 - AP TET MCQ

According to Little, ‘Human communication is the process by which information is passed between people by means of previously agreed symbols, in order to produce the desired response’. Whereas Berlo tried to explain communication as S-M-C-R Model that stands for Sender-Message-Channel-Receiver. It is the basic communication process.

Empathy is the capacity to understand or feel what another person is experiencing from within the other person's frame of reference, i.e., the capacity to place oneself in another's position. Apathy is the opposite in meaning to it.

A : B : C is 3 : 4 : 5 and A + B + C = 40 × 3 = 120
B's age = (4/12) x 120 = 40
So, answer option (3) is correct.

The Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce & Industry (FICCI) is a non-governmental trade association and advocacy group based in India. FICCI has been playing a proactive role in the Higher Education sector supported by the Higher Education Committee, comprising key representatives from leading Higher Education Institutions/Universities, Industry and the Government. The three greatest challenges facing higher education in India, described by FICCI, are expansion, equity and excellence.
The strategy for promoting equity at all levels and all branches of higher education, from enrolment to pass-out stage, shall be through new schemes for financial support of socially deprived groups, minorities and women, along with significant remedial support for such students and faculty.

Effective communication is a way of transferring information, thoughts and ideas to create understanding between sender and receiver. Communication is a persuasive and convincing dialogue which involves the participation of the audience through the strategic use of informal communication, also known as grapevine communication. Communication cannot be possible in one-way because it includes dispensing of information to another person.

A major barrier in the transmission of cognitive data in the process of communication is an individual's coding ability. Senders cannot transmit pure thought, so they have to put the message across through a commonly understood code. Senders encode messages using their skills and resources. Messages that are encoded badly get distorted and are not received correctly. Hence, coding is one of the barriers in the transmission of cognitive data.

The non-directive interview is the most important and most applicable technique for maintaining facilitative relationships which require a chain of face-to-face encounters. According to Rogers, the nondirective interview has a sequence divided into five phases of activity.

• Phase I: Defining the Helping Situation

• Phase III: Developing insights
• Phase IV: Planning and Decision Making
• Phase V: Integration

Given statement: None but the brave wins the race.

• We’ve to reduce this ‘exclusive proposition’.
• Accordingly, we can write the same statement as:
• all brave are winners, So if this statement is false then,
• All brave persons win the race (False)
• Some persons who win the race are not brave (it can be possible, so it is true)
• Some persons who win the race are brave (False)
• No person who wins the race is brave. (False)
• All brave are not winners = meaning, some persons who win the race are not brave.

Given statement - 'None but the brave wins the race’ implies that only the brave wins the race. The phrase none but can be suitable substituted with the meaning arising out of the word only. But it is also provided that the 'given statement' is false. Therefore, it can be said that a group of people who are winning the race is not exclusively comprised of brave. There can be other categories of people too.
Therefore, on the basis of given alternatives, it will be correct to say that- ​Some persons who win the race are not brave.

Lecture, interactive lecture, Group study are the techniques used by the teacher to teach to give knowledge to students or enhance knowledge. Self-study technique is used by students not by teachers as there is no involvement of teachers.

Both the arguments highlight the importance of coal in generating electricity worldwide. This strengthens the argument that in place of replacing the coal with solar solutions, existing process must be made cleaner. So, option 4 is the correct answer.

Each letter is assigned a numerical value which is twice the numeral denoting its position in the English alphabet.
A, N and T are 1st, 14th and 20th letters, respectively.
So, ANT = A + N + T
= (1 x 2) + (14 x 2) + (20 x 2)
= 2 + 28 + 40
= 70

Stands for "American Standard Code for Information Interchange." ASCII is a character encoding that uses numeric codes to represent characters. These include upper and lowercase English letters, numbers, and punctuation symbols.

The terms in the logic are, 'if we see smoke on a hill, we conclude that there must be fire in that hill.'
minor term pakSa : hill
major term sAdhya : fire
middle term li.nga : smoke
vyApti : smoke is invariably associated with fire
From the presence of smoke on the hill as qualified by the knowledge that wherever there is smoke there is fire, we proceed to infer the presence of fire in the hill.
In other words, when one sees smoke on distant hill, one remembers one's experience of the universal concomitance (Vyapti) between smoke and fire and concludes that there is fire on the distant hill.

In computing, an input device is a piece of equipment used to provide data and control signals to an information processing system such as a computer or information appliance. Examples of input devices include keyboards, mouse, scanners, cameras, joysticks, and microphones.

The United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) is an international institution (a programme, rather than an agency of the UN) that coordinates United Nations environmental activities, assisting developing countries in implementing environmentally sound policies and practices. It has its headquarters at Nairobi, Kenya.

The correct matching pair is A - IV, B - III, C - II, D - I.
According to the American sociologist Earl Robert Babbie, “Research is a systematic inquiry to describe, explain, predict, and control the observed phenomenon. Research involves inductive and deductive methods.”

In India, qualitative research is a common type of research at the academic level. The funding agencies support both quantitative and qualitative research in academic institutions.
Quantitative research is common in scientific studies while qualitative studies are common in social sciences. But, it could not get the international standard because of several factors not only funding issues.
Some of the limitations are:

• Methodological problem
• Ethical issues
• Technological problem
• Contextual problem
• Personal issues of the researcher, etc.

Therefore, (A) is true, but (R) is false.

Institutionalised discrimination refers to the unjust and discriminatory mistreatment of an individual or group of individuals by society and its institutions as a whole, through unequal intentional or unintentional bias or selection; as opposed to individuals making a conscious choice to discriminate. Such discrimination is typically codified into the operating procedures, policies, laws, or objectives of such institutions. Hence, when communicated, institutionalised stereotypes become experiences.

Given:
I. x is exactly divisible by 5.
II. x is exactly divisible by 85. 
As we know,
A Number is divisible by 17 if it is a factor of a given number.
Statement I states that the number is completely divisible by 5, but 5 doesn't have 17 as one of its factors so we can not say that on dividing the number by 17 we get how much as the remainder.
Statement II states that a number is divisible by 85 which has 5 and 17 as its factors, so any number which is divisible by 85 is also divisible by 17 and leaves the remainder 0.
∴ Statement II alone, but not Statement I alone, is sufficient to answer the question.

Vacancy in Uttar Pradesh in the year 2020 = 5000

A scientific hypothesis is the initial building block in the scientific method. Many describe it as an "educated guess", based on prior knowledge and observation. While this is true, the definition can be expanded.

The sympathy of Indian soldiers in uniform with the released I.N.A. prisoners at Lahore indicates the feeling of nationalism and fraternity.

A computer virus is a malicious software program loaded onto a user's computer without the user's knowledge and performs malicious actions.

There is no comparison involved in this example, no apprehension, no inference based on a fact. There is only a guess. Since Anil's performance in the exam is much better than his classroom behaviour will suggest, the guess (implication) is that he must have been studying clandestinely.

In the given problem, it will be labelled as technical incompetence. Many researchers in our country face the difficulty of adequate and timely secretarial assistance, including computer assistance. This causes unnecessary delays in the completion of research studies. University Grants Commission must play a dynamic role in solving this difficulty.

Topographic factors can also be known as physiographic factors which include altitude, direction of mountain chains, plateaus, plains, lakes, rivers, sea level, and valleys etc.

Accomplished is the synonym of Attained.

• Attained is to succeed in achieving something.
• Accomplished is to succeed in something difficult.
• Forfeit: to lose something.
• Relinquish: to stop doing something.
• Retreat: to go to a safe place.

Argument II is a strong argument that argues against the need to change US gun laws. Argument I is weak as it is only an example of people in US carrying guns.

1. Client/server networks offer high security.

• Client-server denotes a relationship between cooperating programs in the associate application, composed of clients initiating requests for services and servers providing that operate or service.

So, this statement is true.
2. Input devices allow us to send information to the CPU (Central Processing Unit) to tell the computer what to do.

• A peripheral is a “device that's used to place information into or get information out of the computer.”
• The input devices use buffers to store the information received and once the buffer has some data it sends it to the C.P.U.

So, this statement is true.
3. A client-server network does not store files locally on a computer on a network. Instead, they are stored on a 'server'.

• A client-server network is a medium through that client's access resources and services from a central laptop, via either a Local area network (LAN) or a wide-area network (WAN), like the web. a novel server known as a daemon could also be employed for the only real purpose of awaiting client requests, at which point the network association is initiated till the consumer request has been fulfilled.

So, this statement is true.
Therefore, the correct answer is 1, 2, and 3.
