Sample questions from this paper

Q1.
Choose the address that is the same as the one given below:
Flat No. 12B, Sunrise Apartments, Salt Lake, Kolkata, West Bengal - 700091
नीचे दिए गए पते के समान पता चुनिए:
Flat No. 12B, Sunrise Apartments, Salt Lake, Kolkata, West Bengal - 700091
  1. AFlat No. 12B, Sunrise Apartments, Salt Lake, Kolkata, West Bengal - 700091
  2. BFlat No. 12B, Sunrise Apartments, Salt Lake, Kolkata, Assam - 700091
  3. CFlat No. 12B, Sunrise Apartments, Salt Lake, Kolkata, Odisha - 700091
  4. DFlat No. 12B, Sunrise Apartments, Salt Lake, Kolkata, Bihar - 700091
Show answer

Concept: Compare each part of the address with the original; even one changed word makes it wrong.

  1. Flat number, apartment, area, city and PIN are identical in all four options.
  2. The only changing part is the state: West Bengal / Assam / Odisha / Bihar.
  3. Original says West Bengal → only option (A) keeps it.

Trick: Scan for the part that varies across options and check only that part.

Answer: (A) Flat No. 12B, Sunrise Apartments, Salt Lake, Kolkata, West Bengal - 700091

अवधारणा: पते के हर हिस्से की मूल पते से तुलना करें; एक शब्द भी बदला तो विकल्प गलत।

  1. फ्लैट नंबर, अपार्टमेंट, इलाका, शहर और PIN चारों में एक जैसे हैं।
  2. सिर्फ राज्य का नाम बदल रहा है – West Bengal / Assam / Odisha / Bihar।
  3. मूल पते में West Bengal है, जो केवल (A) में है।

ट्रिक: विकल्पों में जो हिस्सा बदल रहा है, सिर्फ उसी को जाँचें – समय बचेगा।

उत्तर: (A) Flat No. 12B, Sunrise Apartments, Salt Lake, Kolkata, West Bengal - 700091

Q26.
Which specialised system helped the Chandrayaan-3 lander Vikram detect surface hazards and ensure a safe touchdown on the Moon?
चंद्रयान-3 के लैंडर विक्रम को सतह की बाधाएँ पहचानने और सुरक्षित अवतरण में किस विशेष प्रणाली ने सहायता की?
  1. AOptical Terrain Mapping Radarऑप्टिकल टेरेन मैपिंग रडार
  2. BAutonomous Laser Guidance Moduleस्वायत्त लेज़र मार्गदर्शन मॉड्यूल
  3. CLander Hazard Detection and Avoidance Camera and Processing Algorithmलैंडर हैज़र्ड डिटेक्शन एंड अवॉइडेंस कैमरा एवं प्रोसेसिंग एल्गोरिद्म
  4. DLunar Descent Imaging and AI Navigation Suiteलूनर डिसेंट इमेजिंग एवं एआई नेविगेशन सूट
Show answer

Concept: Vikram's safe-landing sensor suite included a dedicated hazard-detection camera.

  1. LHDAC (Lander Hazard Detection & Avoidance Camera) imaged the site during final descent.
  2. Its on-board algorithm flagged boulders/craters and steered Vikram to a safe patch.
  3. The other options are made-up names, not Chandrayaan-3 payloads.

Yaad rakhein: Chandrayaan-3 landed near the lunar south pole on 23 Aug 2023 – now National Space Day.

Answer: (C) Lander Hazard Detection and Avoidance Camera and Processing Algorithm

अवधारणा: विक्रम लैंडर की सुरक्षित लैंडिंग के लिए खास खतरा-पहचान कैमरा लगा था।

  1. LHDAC ने उतरते समय सतह की तस्वीरें लीं।
  2. इसके एल्गोरिद्म ने चट्टानें/गड्ढे पहचानकर सुरक्षित जगह चुनी।
  3. बाकी विकल्प काल्पनिक नाम हैं।

याद रखें: चंद्रयान-3 ने 23 अगस्त 2023 को दक्षिणी ध्रुव के पास लैंडिंग की – यह दिन अब राष्ट्रीय अंतरिक्ष दिवस है।

उत्तर: (C) लैंडर हैज़र्ड डिटेक्शन एंड अवॉइडेंस कैमरा एवं प्रोसेसिंग एल्गोरिद्म

Q51.
Solve: 8×447÷24+75−28
हल कीजिए: 8×447÷24+75−28
  1. A15
  2. B14
  3. C16
  4. D17
Show answer

Concept: Expression is √(8 × 447 ÷ 24 + 75 − 28); solve inside the root by BODMAS.

  1. 8 × 447 ÷ 24 = 447 ÷ 3 = 149.
  2. 149 + 75 − 28 = 196.
  3. √196 = 14.

Trick: Cancel first: 8/24 = 1/3, and 447 ÷ 3 = 149 – no big multiplication needed.

Answer: (B) 14

अवधारणा: व्यंजक √(8 × 447 ÷ 24 + 75 − 28) है; मूल के अंदर BODMAS लगाएँ।

  1. 8 × 447 ÷ 24 = 447 ÷ 3 = 149।
  2. 149 + 75 − 28 = 196।
  3. √196 = 14।

ट्रिक: पहले काटें: 8/24 = 1/3, फिर 447 ÷ 3 = 149।

उत्तर: (B) 14

Q76.
Select the correct spelling to fill in the blank.
The extreme desert heat led to the rapid ____ of the exposed plants.
  1. Adessication
  2. Bdesication
  3. Cdesiccation
  4. Ddesiccasion
Show answer

Concept: Desiccation = the process of drying out completely.

  1. Correct pattern: de-SI-CC-ation → one 's', double 'c'.
  2. dessication (ss, one c), desication (one c), desiccasion (-sion) are wrong.

Trick: Think 'one Sun dries, two Clouds don't come' → 1 S, 2 C.

Answer: (C) desiccation

अवधारणा: Desiccation = पूरी तरह सूख जाना।

  1. सही रूप: de-si-cc-ation – एक 's', दो 'c'।
  2. dessication, desication, desiccasion – सब गलत।

ट्रिक: 1 S, 2 C – 'desiccation' याद रखने का आसान तरीका।

उत्तर: (C) desiccation
