  • Question 1/10
    1 / -0

    Directions For Questions

    Direction: Rearrange the following six sentences (A), (B), (C), (D), (E) and (F) in the proper sequence to form a meaningful paragraph: then answer the questions given below them.
    A) It allows the rover to control its own use of ChemCam, an instrument that learns the chemical composition of rocks by zapping them with a laser and studying the resulting gasses.


    B) For the last year, the Curiosity rover has been studying the surface of Mars with more independence than ever before, saving human time and energy.


    C) Combined with the observations controlled by NASA scientists, the automation has helped increase the average number of laser firings from 256 per day to 327 per day.


    D) The partly autonomous exploration is also helping people sidestep the constraints of working across vast distances in space. This new capability is powered by software called Autonomous Exploration for Gathering Increased Science, or AEGIS.


    E) More laser firings mean more data collected, and that means NASA gets a better understanding of what Mars is like, and — more importantly — what it used to be like.


    F) Between the new software’s deployment in May 2016 and April 2017, the rover did this 52 times after moving to a new location.

    Which of the following is the SECOND LAST sentence?
    Solutions
    Statement B introduces the theme of the series, Curiosity Rover and it's study of the planet Mars. statement D follows as it continues to talk about the mission and gives an insight as to how is the rover being helpful. The sentence introduces the software Aegis which is the reason for rover's successful operation so far. Statement A talks about what does this software do and hence is a continuation of the previous statement which is statement D. F continues to talk about the software's deployment and its movement to a new location and hence D, A, F should form a liner pattern in the same order. Statement C introduces the word 'laser findings' and E elaborates on the same concept, thus the two form a mandatory pair.
    The correct sequence, hence, is BDAFCE.

    Business and pollution are as usual churning. The “acceptable” target increases from 1.5 degrees Centigrade to 2 to 3 to 4 to 5 degrees Centigrade.
    I. The acceptable number continues to rise in order to keep
    II. The worsening pollution is disrupting business as usual but to retain
    III. We get lost in ever-shifting and incomprehensible blather about how much warming is deemed acceptable because
    Solutions
    Statement II only fits with the first sentence and does not help in connecting the sentences. If statement III was used as the first part, the connector ‘because’ will make the sentence absurd.
    ‘The acceptable number continue to rise’ can be deciphered from ‘“acceptable” target increases from 1.5 degrees Centigrade to 2 to 3 to 4 to 5 degrees Centigrade.’ Therefore, option A is the apt answer.

    New statement:
    The acceptable number continues to rise in order to keep business and pollution as usual churning as the “acceptable “target increases from 1.5 degrees Centigrade to 2 to 3 to 4 to 5 degrees Centigrade.

    As the global community gears up to commemorate this day as World Day Against Child Labour, my memories go back 19 years to those electrifying few months in 1998. In those days, like-minded people across the world forged a truly global partnership to organise the Global March Against Child Labour.
    I. As the global
    II. Because partnership in
    III. All like-minded people of
    Solutions
    We can clearly decipher from the sentences that the first sentence is the present event and the second sentence is a memory of past but what is common between the two sentences is the idea that globally people are coming together for a Nobel cause. What is to be taken into consideration is the emphasis on “people across the world forged a truly global partnership”. Therefore, the most suitable option is I.
    New statement:

    Getting a child into the IFS, IAS, IRS was the ultimate badge of honour. It was also a testament to their good parenting skills.
    I. For ambitious parents,
    II. For my grandfather’s generation,
    III. For various coaching centres,
    Solutions
    We can clearly decipher from the sentences that are about the parents and their expectations by “good parenting skills” therefore, option III will get eliminated which is about coaching centres. The sentences have used “was” which shows the past tense. This shows that this thinking of parents is now a matter of past. They used to think like that a while ago. From the remaining two options, only option II gives us the reference to the past and fits perfectly. Therefore, only option II is apt.
    New statement:
    For my father’s generation, getting a child into the IFS, IAS, IRS was the ultimate badge of honour and a testament to their good parenting skills.
    Hence, option B is the correct response.

    After the announcement of periodic labour force surveys, India has not just created an opportunity for itself to undo its recent lukewarm performance on the job creation front. It has also opened a lucrative window to make job creation the heart of policy formulation.

    I. While.... being opened
    II. With the announcement ... but has also
    III. During... to withhold
    Solutions
    It can be gathered from the given sentence that the two things that India has gained, have occurred as a consequence of the announcement of the periodic labour force surveys. Hence, the phrase "with the announcement" can be used to begin the sentence. Also, the correlative conjunctions "not only... but also" can effectively join the two sentences.

    New statement:
    With the announcement of periodic labour force surveys, India has not only created an opportunity for itself to undo its recent lukewarm performance on the job creation front but has also opened a lucrative window to make job creation the heart of policy formulation.
