Sample questions from this paper

Q1.
Identify the part of the sentence that contains a grammatical error.
A. The lecture, B. which our teacher delivered, C. was not only engaging D. but also inspire.
  1. AThe lecture
  2. Bwhich our teacher delivered
  3. Cwas not only engaging
  4. Dbut also inspire
Show answer

Concept: Whatever word-type follows 'not only' must also follow 'but also'.

  1. After 'not only' we have engaging (an -ing adjective).
  2. After 'but also' we find the base verb inspire – the two halves do not match.
  3. Correct: '…was not only engaging but also inspiring.'

Trick: Cover the connectors and read the two words side by side: engaging / inspire – the odd form is the error.

Answer: (D) but also inspire

अवधारणा: 'not only' के बाद जो शब्द-रूप आए, वही रूप 'but also' के बाद भी आना चाहिए।

हल:

  1. 'not only' के बाद engaging (-ing रूप) है।
  2. 'but also' के बाद inspire (base verb) है – दोनों रूप मेल नहीं खाते।
  3. सही वाक्य: '…not only engaging but also inspiring.'

ट्रिक: दोनों connectors के बाद वाले शब्द साथ रखकर देखें – engaging / inspire; जो रूप अलग है, गलती वहीं है।

उत्तर: (D) but also inspire

Q26.
A bus travels at a speed of 84 km/hr. How much distance will it cover in 40 minutes?
एक बस 84 km/hr की चाल से चलती है। यह 40 मिनट में कितनी दूरी तय करेगी?
  1. A40 km
  2. B56 km
  3. C60 km
  4. D70 km
Show answer

Concept: Distance = Speed × Time, with time converted to hours when speed is in km/hr.

  1. 40 min = 40/60 hr = 2/3 hr.
  2. Distance = 84 × 2/3 = 56 km.

Trick: 84 km/hr = 84 km in 60 min → 1.4 km per minute; 1.4 × 40 = 56 km.

Answer: (B) 56 km

अवधारणा: दूरी = चाल × समय; चाल km/hr में हो तो समय को घंटे में बदलें।

हल:

  1. 40 मिनट = 40/60 = 2/3 घंटा।
  2. दूरी = 84 × 2/3 = 56 km।

ट्रिक: 84 km/hr यानी 60 मिनट में 84 km → 1 मिनट में 1.4 km; 1.4 × 40 = 56 km।

उत्तर: (B) 56 km

Q51.
Which one of the following statements is FALSE ?
निम्नलिखित में से कौन-सा कथन असत्य है?
  1. AEvery whole number is an integerप्रत्येक पूर्ण संख्या एक पूर्णांक है
  2. BEvery integer is a rational numberप्रत्येक पूर्णांक एक परिमेय संख्या है
  3. CBoth rational and irrational numbers are real numbersपरिमेय और अपरिमेय दोनों संख्याएँ वास्तविक संख्याएँ हैं
  4. DEvery rational number is an irrational numberप्रत्येक परिमेय संख्या एक अपरिमेय संख्या है
Show answer

Concept: Rational and irrational numbers are two separate (disjoint) sets that together make the real numbers.

  1. Whole numbers {0, 1, 2, …} ⊂ integers → (A) true.
  2. Any integer n = n/1 → rational → (B) true.
  3. Real = rational ∪ irrational → (C) true.
  4. A number cannot be both rational and irrational → (D) false.

Trick: Chain to remember: Natural ⊂ Whole ⊂ Integer ⊂ Rational ⊂ Real; Irrational sits beside Rational, never inside it.

Answer: (D) Every rational number is an irrational number

अवधारणा: Rational व irrational – दोनों अलग-अलग समूह हैं; इन दोनों का मेल real numbers कहलाता है।

हल:

  1. Whole numbers {0, 1, 2, …} – ये integers का हिस्सा हैं → (A) ठीक।
  2. Integer n = n/1 लिखा जा सकता है → rational → (B) ठीक।
  3. Real = rational ∪ irrational → (C) ठीक।
  4. जो rational है वह irrational कभी नहीं हो सकता → (D) गलत।

ट्रिक: क्रम: Natural ⊂ Whole ⊂ Integer ⊂ Rational ⊂ Real; Irrational इस श्रृंखला के बगल में है, अंदर नहीं।

उत्तर: (D) Every rational number is an irrational number

Q76.
In the administrative system of the Delhi Sultanate, which tax was imposed on war booty and captured treasure ?
दिल्ली सल्तनत की प्रशासनिक व्यवस्था में युद्ध में लूटे गए माल और अधिकृत खजाने पर कौन-सा कर लगाया जाता था?
  1. ACharaiचराई
  2. BKhumsखम्स
  3. CKharajखराज
  4. DUshrउश्र
Show answer

Concept: Sultanate taxes: Khums on spoils of war; Kharaj, Ushr on land; Charai on grazing.

  1. Khums = state's share of war booty/treasure – one-fifth by Islamic law.
  2. Kharaj = land tax on non-Muslims; Ushr = 1/10 land tax on Muslims; Charai = grazing tax on cattle.

Yaad rakhein: Alauddin Khalji reversed the share – he took 4/5 of the booty for the state and left 1/5 to soldiers.

Answer: (B) Khums

अवधारणा: सल्तनत कर: खम्स – युद्ध लूट पर; खराज, उश्र – भूमि पर; चराई – पशु चराने पर।

हल:

  1. खम्स = युद्ध में मिली लूट/खज़ाने में राज्य का हिस्सा (इस्लामी नियम से 1/5)।
  2. खराज = गैर-मुस्लिमों पर भूमि कर; उश्र = मुस्लिमों पर 1/10 भूमि कर; चराई = पशुओं पर कर।

याद रखें: अलाउद्दीन खिलजी ने लूट का 4/5 भाग राज्य के लिए लिया और सैनिकों को केवल 1/5 दिया।

उत्तर: (B) Khums
