    Correct Answer
    A. Water

    A. Cannot be determined
    Explanation
    The word "pure" appears in two different sentences with two different codes. In the first sentence, "pure" is coded as "sa" and in the second sentence, it is coded as "nu". Therefore, it is not possible to determine a single code for the word "pure" based on the given information.

    • Ra ze mi

    • Ra zi fi

    • Ze mi la

    • Ra sa nu

    • Ra nu te

    Correct Answer
    A. Ra ze mi
    Explanation
    The code language given in the question translates to English as follows:
    - le = take
    - ra = fresh
    - sa = vegetables
    - mi = water
    - nu = and
    - te = pure
    - fi = sweet
    - ze = safe

    To write "take safe water" in this code language, we need to translate each word individually. "Take" is represented by "ra," "safe" is represented by "ze," and "water" is represented by "mi." Therefore, the correct answer is "ra ze mi."

    • If only II is true.

    • If either I or II is true

    • If neither I nor II is true.

    • If both I and II are true

    Correct Answer
    A. If neither I nor II is true.
    Explanation
    The given statements are P $ T, T @ L, and U % L. According to the given meanings of the symbols, P is not greater than T, T is not smaller than L, and U is neither smaller than nor equal to L.

    Conclusion I states that P is not smaller than L. Since there is no direct relationship between P and L in the given statements, we cannot determine whether P is smaller than L or not. Therefore, Conclusion I is not definitely true.

    Conclusion II states that U is neither smaller than nor greater than L. This is true because U is neither smaller than nor equal to L, so it cannot be greater than L either. Therefore, Conclusion II is definitely true.

    Since Conclusion I is not definitely true and Conclusion II is definitely true, the correct answer is "If only II is true."

    • If either I or II is true

    • If neither I nor II is true.

    • If both I and II are true.

    Correct Answer
    A. If only II is true
    Explanation
    The symbol '%' means 'neither smaller than nor equal to'. So, from the second statement 'B%D', we can conclude that B is neither smaller than nor equal to D. And from the third statement 'D©K', we can conclude that D is neither smaller than nor greater than K. Therefore, B is also neither smaller than nor greater than K. Hence, the conclusion II 'B%K' is definitely true.

    • If only I is true.

    • If only II is true.

    • If either I or II is true.

    • Neither I nor II is true.

    • Both I and II are true.

    Correct Answer
    A. Both I and II are true.
    Explanation
    The symbol # means "X is neither greater than nor equal to Y" and © means "X is neither smaller than nor greater than Y". From the given statements, we can infer that J is neither greater than nor equal to K, K is neither smaller than nor greater than L, and P is not greater than L.

    Conclusion I states that P is not greater than K, which is true because K is not smaller than P. Conclusion II states that J is neither greater than nor equal to L, which is also true because J is not smaller than L.

    Therefore, both Conclusion I and Conclusion II are true.

    Directions-(31 to 40) Read the following passage and answer the questions given after it- Every afternoon, on their way back from school, the children used to go and play in the Giant's garden. It was a large lovely garden, with soft green grass. Over the grass stood beautiful flowers like stars, and there were twelve peach-trees that bore rich fruit. The birds would sit on the trees and sing sweetly to the children playing below. One day the Giant came back. He had been on a long tour and was now determined to return to his own castle. When he arrived he saw the children playing in the garden and was outrageous. "What are you doing here ?" He shouted in a very gruff voice, and the children ran away. "I will not allow anybody to play in my garden but myself" said the Giant. And so, he built a high wall around it, and put up a notice-board that read TRESPASSERS WILL BE PROSECUTED. He was a very selfish Giant. The poor children had now, nowhere to play. They tried to play on the road, but the road was very dusty and full of stones, and they did not like it. On their way back from school, they used to wander around the high wall and remember the good times. Then came spring, and all over the country there were little blossoms and little birds. Only in the garden of the Selfish Giant it was still winter. The birds did not care to sing in it as there were no children and the trees forgot to blossom. The only people who were pleased were the snow and the frost. "Spring has forgotten this garden," they cried, "so we will live here all the year round." I cannot understand why the spring is so late in coming," said the selfish Giant, as he sat at the window and looked out at his cold white garden, "I hope there will be a change in the weather." But the spring never came, nor did the summer. The autumn gave golden fruit to every garden, but to the Giant's garden she gave none. "He was too selfish," she said. So it was always winter there. One morning the Giant was lying awake in bed when he heard the birds singing. "I believe the spring has come at last," said the Giant, and he jumped out of bed and looked out. He saw the most wonderful sight. Through the little hole in the wall the children had crept in, and they were sitting on the branches of the trees. On every tree there was a child. The birds were flying about and twittering with delight, and the flowers were looking up through the green grass and laughing. It was a lovely scene however, in one corner it was still winter. It was the farthest corner of the garden, and in it was standing a little boy. He was so small that he could not reach the branches of the tree, and he was wandering all around it crying bitterly. The Giant's heart melted as he looked out. "How selfish I have been '" he said, "now I know why spring would not come here. I will put that poor little boy on the top of the tree, and then I will knock down the wall, and my garden shall be the children's play-ground forever and ever." He was really sorry for what he had done. 31.     What did the Giant do to keep the children away from his garden?

    • He built a high wall around the garden

    • He displayed a message on a notice board

    • He threatened to complain to their parents

It was a large lovely garden, with soft green grass. Over the grass stood beautiful flowers like stars, and there were twelve peach-trees that bore rich fruit. The birds would sit on the trees and sing sweetly to the children playing below. One day the Giant came back. He had been on a long tour and was now determined to return to his own castle. When he arrived he saw the children playing in the garden and was outrageous. "What are you doing here ?" He shouted in a very gruff voice, and the children ran away. "I will not allow anybody to play in my garden but myself" said the Giant. And so, he built a high wall around it, and put up a notice-board that read TRESPASSERS WILL BE PROSECUTED. He was a very selfish Giant. The poor children had now, nowhere to play. They tried to play on the road, but the road was very dusty and full of stones, and they did not like it. On their way back from school, they used to wander around the high wall and remember the good times. Then came spring, and all over the country there were little blossoms and little birds. Only in the garden of the Selfish Giant it was still winter. The birds did not care to sing in it as there were no children and the trees forgot to blossom. The only people who were pleased were the snow and the frost. "Spring has forgotten this garden," they cried, "so we will live here all the year round."

    • The snow and the winter took over

    • The Giant was enjoying the winter in his garden

    • It was one way of keeping the children away

    • The Giant refused to change his behaviour

    • The Giant was selfish

    Correct Answer
    A. The snow and the winter took over
    Explanation
    The passage states that in the Giant's garden, it was always winter because the Giant was too selfish. The trees in the garden did not bear fruit because the spring never came to the garden. The passage also mentions that the snow and the frost were pleased with this and decided to live in the garden all year round. Therefore, the correct answer is "The snow and the winter took over."

    Correct Answer
    A. When he witnessed the spring after the children reentered the garden

However, one morning he heard the birds singing and saw that the children had crept into his garden, sitting on the branches of the trees. The sight of the children and the signs of spring finally arriving melted the Giant's heart and made him realize the error of his selfish ways.

    • The Corner Boy

    • The Winter Season

    • The Selfish Giant

    • The Little Children

    • The Paradise Garden

    Correct Answer
    A. The Paradise Garden
    Explanation
    The story can be appropriately titled "The Paradise Garden" because the passage describes a beautiful garden with soft green grass, beautiful flowers, and peach trees that bear rich fruit. The garden is a paradise for the children who used to play there. However, the paradise is lost when the selfish Giant builds a high wall and prohibits anyone from playing in the garden except himself. The garden remains in winter while the rest of the country experiences spring. The paradise is restored when the children sneak into the garden and bring back the joy and beauty of spring.

It was a large lovely garden, with soft green grass. Over the grass stood beautiful flowers like stars, and there were twelve peach-trees that bore rich fruit. The birds would sit on the trees and sing sweetly to the children playing below. One day the Giant came back. He had been on a long tour and was now determined to return to his own castle. When he arrived he saw the children playing in the garden and was outrageous. "What are you doing here ?" He shouted in a very gruff voice, and the children ran away. "I will not allow anybody to play in my garden but myself" said the Giant. And so, he built a high wall around it, and put up a notice-board that read TRESPASSERS WILL BE PROSECUTED. He was a very selfish Giant. The poor children had now, nowhere to play. They tried to play on the road, but the road was very dusty and full of stones, and they did not like it. On their way back from school, they used to wander around the high wall and remember the good times. Then came spring, and all over the country there were little blossoms and little birds. Only in the garden of the Selfish Giant it was still winter. The birds did not care to sing in it as there were no children and the trees forgot to blossom. The only people who were pleased were the snow and the frost. "Spring has forgotten this garden," they cried, "so we will live here all the year round." I cannot understand why the spring is so late in coming," said the selfish Giant, as he sat at the window and looked out at his cold white garden, "I hope there will be a change in the weather." But the spring never came, nor did the summer. The autumn gave golden fruit to every garden, but to the Giant's garden she gave none. "He was too selfish," she said. So it was always winter there. One morning the Giant was lying awake in bed when he heard the birds singing. "I believe the spring has come at last," said the Giant, and he jumped out of bed and looked out. He saw the most wonderful sight. Through the little hole in the wall the children had crept in, and they were sitting on the branches of the trees. On every tree there was a child. The birds were flying about and twittering with delight, and the flowers were looking up through the green grass and laughing. It was a lovely scene however, in one corner it was still winter. It was the farthest corner of the garden, and in it was standing a little boy. He was so small that he could not reach the branches of the tree, and he was wandering all around it crying bitterly. The Giant's heart melted as he looked out. "How selfish I have been '" he said, "now I know why spring would not come here. I will put that poor little boy on the top of the tree, and then I will knock down the wall, and my garden shall be the children's play-ground forever and ever." He was really sorry for what he had done.  Directions-(38 - 40) Choose the word which is most opposite in meaning of the word printed in bold as used in the passage 40. Awake

    • Alert

    • Conscious

    • Aware

    • Asleep

    • Wakeful

    Correct Answer
    A. Asleep
    Explanation
    Asleep is the most opposite in meaning to the word "awake" as used in the passage. The passage mentions that the Giant was lying awake in bed when he heard the birds singing, indicating that he was not asleep. Therefore, "asleep" is the correct opposite term.

    • 3:2

    • 2:3

    • Cannot be determined

    Correct Answer
    A. 12:13
    Explanation
    Let the expenditures of company B and C were x and y respectively in the year 2009.
    Now, Income = [ {profit% /100} +1]* expenditure
    So Income of B= Income of C
    1.3x = 1.2 y
    x : y = 12 : 13

    In 2008, Company C earned minimum percentage profit.
    In 2009, Company C earned minimum percentage profit.
    In 2010, Company B earned minimum percentage profit.
    Hence both companies B and C earned the minimum percentage profit two (maximum) times.

    • 230

    • 260

    • 45

    • 80

    • 190

    Correct Answer
    A. 230
    Explanation
    Let the expenditures of company A and C were x and y respectively in the year 2010. Then
    Profit of A= 60% of x
    & Profit of A= 35% of y
    So, 0.6 x = 0.35y
    x :y = 7 : 12
    let x = 7p & y = 12p
    Expenditure of company A = 7p
    Expenditure of company C = 12p
    Income = [ {profit% /100} +1]* expenditure
    Income of company C =
    Required percentage = 16.2p/7p *100 = 230% (approx)

    Spooling  is acronym for     

    • Simultaneous peripheral operation online

    • Simultaneous Process operation online

    • System peripheral operation online

    • Simultaneous peripheral operating online

    • None of these

    Correct Answer
    A. Simultaneous peripheral operation online
    Explanation
    Spooling stands for Simultaneous peripheral operation online. This term is used to describe a process in which multiple devices or processes can access a shared resource, such as a printer, simultaneously. Spooling allows for efficient processing and management of data, as it queues the jobs in a buffer and then sends them to the appropriate device or process as they become available. This helps to prevent bottlenecks and improve overall system performance.

    __________ Operating System allow many users to show the computer simultaneously     

    • Batch processing

    • 8-bit operating System

    • Real time Operating System

    • Time shared Operating System

    • None of these

    Correct Answer
    A. Time shared Operating System
    Explanation
    A time-shared operating system allows multiple users to share the computer's resources simultaneously. This means that multiple users can run programs and perform tasks on the computer at the same time, without one user monopolizing the system. The operating system divides the computer's processing time into small time slices, allowing each user to have a turn to use the system. This type of operating system is commonly used in environments where multiple users need to access the computer simultaneously, such as in a server or a mainframe system.

    • Both 1 and 2

    • Parallel System

    Correct Answer
    A. Parallel System
    Explanation
    A parallel system is a type of system that has more than one CPU. In a parallel system, multiple processors work together to perform tasks simultaneously, which can greatly increase the system's processing power and speed. This allows for efficient execution of complex tasks and high-performance computing. Therefore, a parallel system is the correct answer because it specifically refers to a system with multiple CPUs.

     _______ is a logical extension of multiprocessing

    • Multitasking

    • Multiprocessing

    • Multithreading

    • All of these

    • None of these

    Correct Answer
    A. Multitasking
    Explanation
    Multitasking is a logical extension of multiprocessing because it allows multiple tasks or processes to run concurrently on a single processor. In multiprocessing, multiple processors are used to execute different tasks simultaneously, whereas in multitasking, a single processor is used to switch between multiple tasks quickly, giving the illusion of parallel execution. Therefore, multitasking can be seen as an extension of multiprocessing, as it allows for better utilization of system resources and improved efficiency in task execution.
