Concept: The International Booker Prize is given to a work of fiction translated into English; the prize is shared equally by author and translator.

  1. The 2025 International Booker Prize went to Heart Lamp, a collection of Kannada short stories by Banu Mushtaq.
  2. It was translated into English by Deepa Bhasthi, the translator, not the author.
  3. It was the first short-story collection, and the first Kannada work, to win the prize.

Yaad rakhein: Heart Lamp: author Banu Mushtaq (Karnataka), translator Deepa Bhasthi.

Answer: (C) Banu Mushtaq

अवधारणा: अंतर्राष्ट्रीय बुकर पुरस्कार अंग्रेज़ी में अनूदित कथा-साहित्य को मिलता है; राशि लेखक और अनुवादक में बराबर बँटती है।

  1. 2025 का अंतर्राष्ट्रीय बुकर बानू मुश्ताक के कन्नड़ कहानी-संग्रह Heart Lamp को मिला।
  2. दीपा भस्थी इसकी अनुवादक हैं, लेखिका नहीं।
  3. यह पुरस्कार जीतने वाला पहला कहानी-संग्रह और पहली कन्नड़ कृति है।

याद रखें: Heart Lamp: लेखिका बानू मुश्ताक (कर्नाटक), अनुवादक दीपा भस्थी।

Q41.
By selling 6 rubber-bands for a rupee, a man loses 40%. To gain 20% how many must he sell for a rupee?
एक रुपये में 6 रबर-बैंड बेचने पर एक व्यक्ति को 40% की हानि होती है। 20% का लाभ प्राप्त करने के लिए उसे एक रुपये में कितने रबर-बैंड बेचने चाहिए?
  1. A4
  2. B5
  3. C3
  4. D2
Show answer

Concept: For a fixed SP of ₹1, the number of articles sold is inversely proportional to SP per article, and SP=CP×100±rate100.

  1. At 40% loss, ₹1 = 60% of CP of 6 bands.
  2. For 20% gain, ₹1 = 120% of CP of n bands.
  3. So 60×6=120×n.
  4. n=360120=3.

Trick: n=6×100−40100+20=6×60120=3.

Answer: (C) 3

अवधारणा: ₹1 के निश्चित विक्रय मूल्य पर बिकने वाली वस्तुओं की संख्या प्रति वस्तु SP के व्युत्क्रमानुपाती है; SP=CP×100±दर100।

  1. 40% हानि पर ₹1 = 6 बैंड के क्रय मूल्य का 60%।
  2. 20% लाभ पर ₹1 = n बैंड के क्रय मूल्य का 120%।
  3. अतः 60×6=120×n।
  4. n=360120=3।

ट्रिक: n=6×100−40100+20=6×60120=3।

उत्तर: (C) 3

Concept: Check every symbol: the element just before it and just after it must both be numbers.

  1. Series: 9 6 $ $ 7 © £ $ 1 * 5 4 3 3 $ 6 @ # # # 8 %.
  2. 1 * 5 ✓ and 3 $ 6 ✓.
  3. Others fail, e.g. 6 $ $, 7 © £, 6 @ #. Count =2.

Trick: Scan for the pattern “number – symbol – number” in one pass.

Answer: (C) 2

अवधारणा: हर प्रतीक के ठीक पहले और ठीक बाद वाला तत्व संख्या होना चाहिए।

  1. श्रृंखला: 9 6 $ $ 7 © £ $ 1 * 5 4 3 3 $ 6 @ # # # 8 %।
  2. 1 * 5 ✓ और 3 $ 6 ✓।
  3. बाकी नहीं, जैसे 6 $ $, 7 © £, 6 @ #। कुल =2।

उत्तर: (C) 2
