Show answer

Concept: When something belongs to a plural noun ending in -s, add only an apostrophe (s').

  1. Whose suggestions? They belong to the employees → a possessive form is needed.
  2. "Employees" is plural and already ends in -s, so write employees' (not employees or employee's).
  3. So part B should read: "…states that employees' suggestions…"; other parts are fine.

Trick: Singular owner → 's (the boy's bag); plural owner ending in s → only ' (the boys' bags).

Answer: (B) that employee's suggestions

अवधारणा: जब कोई चीज़ -s पर ख़त्म होने वाले plural noun की हो, तो सिर्फ़ apostrophe (') लगाते हैं।

हल:

  1. Suggestions किसके हैं? Employees के – इसलिए possessive रूप चाहिए।
  2. "Employees" पहले से -s वाला plural है, अतः सही रूप employees' होगा।
  3. अतः भाग B सही रूप में: "…states that employees' suggestions…"; बाकी भाग ठीक हैं।

ट्रिक: एक मालिक → 's (the boy's bag); -s वाले कई मालिक → केवल ' (the boys' bags)।

उत्तर: (B) that employee's suggestions

Q26.
A person avoids eye contact, keeps their arms crossed, and maintains a rigid posture during a discussion. What do these non-verbal cues most likely indicate?
एक व्यक्ति चर्चा के दौरान आँखों से संपर्क करने से बचता है, अपनी भुजाएँ क्रॉस किए रखता है तथा कठोर मुद्रा बनाए रखता है। ये अशाब्दिक संकेत सर्वाधिक संभावित रूप से क्या दर्शाते हैं?
  1. AConfidence and opennessआत्मविश्वास और खुलापन
  2. BNervousness or defensivenessघबराहट अथवा रक्षात्मकता
  3. CHigh enthusiasmउच्च उत्साह
  4. DComplete agreementपूर्ण सहमति
Show answer

Concept: Body language is judged from a group of signals that point the same way.

  1. No eye contact → discomfort/unease.
  2. Crossed arms → a "closed", guarded posture; rigid body → tension.
  3. All three together → nervousness or defensiveness.

Trick: Open signals (eye contact, relaxed arms) = confidence; closed signals = defence. Here every cue is "closed".

Answer: (B) Nervousness or defensiveness

अवधारणा: शारीरिक भाषा को कई संकेतों के समूह से समझा जाता है।

हल:

  1. आँख न मिलाना → असहजता।
  2. हाथ बाँधे रखना → बचाव वाली "बंद" मुद्रा; अकड़ा शरीर → तनाव।
  3. तीनों मिलकर → घबराहट या रक्षात्मकता।

ट्रिक: खुले संकेत = आत्मविश्वास; बंद संकेत = बचाव। यहाँ सारे संकेत "बंद" हैं।

उत्तर: (B) घबराहट अथवा रक्षात्मकता

Q51.
The average marks of 20 students in a mathematics test were 55. Later, it was discovered that one student's marks were wrongly recorded as 40 instead of 70. After correction, the average increases. A new student then joins the group whose marks are 20% more than the corrected average. What is the final average of the group?
किसी गणित परीक्षा में 20 विद्यार्थियों के औसत अंक 55 थे। बाद में पता चला कि एक विद्यार्थी के अंक 70 के स्थान पर गलती से 40 दर्ज कर दिए गए थे। संशोधन के बाद औसत बढ़ जाता है। फिर एक नया विद्यार्थी समूह में सम्मिलित होता है जिसके अंक संशोधित औसत से 20% अधिक हैं। समूह का अंतिम औसत क्या है?
  1. A57.10
  2. B57.04
  3. C57.20
  4. D56.15
Show answer

Concept: Work with totals: total = average × count.

  1. Old total = 20 × 55 = 1100; correction adds 70 − 40 = 30 → 1130.
  2. Corrected average = 1130 ÷ 20 = 56.5; new student = 56.5 × 1.2 = 67.8.
  3. Final average = (1130 + 67.8) ÷ 21 = 1197.8 ÷ 21 ≈ 57.04.

Trick: Newcomer is 67.8 − 56.5 = 11.3 above average → average rises by 11.3/21 ≈ 0.54 → 56.5 + 0.54 = 57.04.

Answer: (B) 57.04

अवधारणा: कुल योग पर काम करें: योग = औसत × संख्या।

हल:

  1. पुराना योग = 20 × 55 = 1100; संशोधन से 70 − 40 = 30 जुड़ा → 1130।
  2. संशोधित औसत = 1130 ÷ 20 = 56.5; नया छात्र = 56.5 × 1.2 = 67.8।
  3. अंतिम औसत = (1130 + 67.8) ÷ 21 = 1197.8 ÷ 21 ≈ 57.04।

ट्रिक: नया छात्र औसत से 11.3 अधिक → औसत 11.3/21 ≈ 0.54 बढ़ेगा → 56.5 + 0.54 = 57.04।

उत्तर: (B) 57.04

Q76.
Which of the following combinations of Constitutional Parts and their subjects is incorrectly paired ?
संवैधानिक भागों और उनके विषयों के निम्नलिखित संयोजनों में से कौन-सा गलत सुमेलित है?
  1. ADirective Principles of State Policy - Part IVराज्य के नीति निदेशक तत्व - भाग IV
  2. BOfficial Language - Part XVIIराजभाषा - भाग XVII
  3. CElections - Part XVIIनिर्वाचन - भाग XVII
  4. DEmergency Provisions - Part XVIIIआपातकालीन उपबंध - भाग XVIII
Show answer

Concept: Each Part of the Constitution deals with a fixed subject.

  1. Elections are in Part XV (Articles 324–329), not Part XVII → wrong pair.
  2. Part IV = DPSP (Art. 36–51), Part XVII = Official Language (Art. 343–351), Part XVIII = Emergency (Art. 352–360) – all correct.

Trick: Last parts in order: XV Elections → XVI Special provisions (SC/ST) → XVII Language → XVIII Emergency.

Answer: (C) Elections - Part XVII

अवधारणा: संविधान का हर भाग एक निश्चित विषय से जुड़ा है।

हल:

  1. निर्वाचन भाग XV (अनुच्छेद 324–329) में है, भाग XVII में नहीं → गलत जोड़ी।
  2. भाग IV = नीति निदेशक तत्व, भाग XVII = राजभाषा, भाग XVIII = आपात उपबंध – सही।

ट्रिक: क्रम से: XV निर्वाचन → XVI SC/ST विशेष उपबंध → XVII भाषा → XVIII आपातकाल।

उत्तर: (C) निर्वाचन - भाग XVII
