Q1.

  1. Aback to the drawing board
  2. Bfiring on all cylinders
  3. Cbarking up the wrong tree
  4. Dskating on thin ice
Show answer

Concept: Pick the idiom whose sense matches 'a breakthrough after stagnation'.

  1. The project is now doing very well, so we need an idiom of full efficiency.
  2. Firing on all cylinders = working at maximum power and effectiveness.
  3. 'Back to the drawing board' = starting again after failure; 'barking up the wrong tree' = wrong approach; 'skating on thin ice' = in a risky position.

Trick: Breakthrough = positive tone; three options are negative, only one is positive.

Answer: (B) firing on all cylinders

अवधारणा: खाली जगह में ऐसा idiom चाहिए जो 'breakthrough के बाद तेज़ प्रगति' दिखाए।

  1. प्रोजेक्ट अब पूरी ताकत से चल रहा है।
  2. Firing on all cylinders = पूरी क्षमता से काम करना।
  3. Back to the drawing board = फिर से शुरू करना; barking up the wrong tree = गलत दिशा में प्रयास; skating on thin ice = जोखिम में होना।

ट्रिक: वाक्य का भाव सकारात्मक है; बाकी तीनों idioms नकारात्मक हैं।

उत्तर: (B) firing on all cylinders

  2. His only daughter = the son's wife herself.
  3. Son's wife = Ramesh's daughter-in-law.

Trick: 'Only daughter of X's father-in-law' always = X's wife.

Answer: (A) Daughter-in-law

  1. बेटे के ससुर = बेटे की पत्नी के पिता।
  2. उनकी इकलौती बेटी = बेटे की पत्नी।
  3. बेटे की पत्नी = Ramesh की बहू।

Q51.
A factory hired 10 workers and found that their average productivity per day was 43.75 unit. Later, 3 more workers were hired. The average productivity of all 13 workers then became 46.5 units. However, one of the new 3 workers made 50.2 unit daily, and another made 46.4 unit daily. What is the daily productivity of the third new worker?
एक कारखाने ने 10 श्रमिकों को नियुक्त किया और पाया कि उनकी प्रतिदिन औसत उत्पादकता 43.75 यूनिट थी। बाद में 3 और श्रमिक नियुक्त किए गए। तब सभी 13 श्रमिकों की औसत उत्पादकता 46.5 यूनिट हो गई। तथापि, 3 नए श्रमिकों में से एक प्रतिदिन 50.2 यूनिट तथा दूसरा प्रतिदिन 46.4 यूनिट उत्पादन करता था। तीसरे नए श्रमिक की दैनिक उत्पादकता कितनी है?
  1. A80.35
  2. B60.65
  3. C70.40
  4. D60.25
Show answer

Concept: Total = average × number; the missing value = new total − known totals.

  1. Old total = 10 × 43.75 = 437.5
  2. New total = 13 × 46.5 = 604.5 → 3 new workers = 167
  3. Third worker = 167 − (50.2 + 46.4) = 167 − 96.6 = 70.4

Trick: Deviation method: average rose by 2.75 for 13 people → 35.75 extra over 43.75. 3 new = 3×43.75 + 35.75 = 167.

Answer: (C) 70.40

अवधारणा: कुल योग = औसत × संख्या; लुप्त मान = नया योग − ज्ञात योग।

  1. पुराना योग = 10 × 43.75 = 437.5
  2. नया योग = 13 × 46.5 = 604.5 → 3 नए = 167
  3. तीसरा = 167 − 96.6 = 70.4

ट्रिक: विचलन विधि: 13 लोगों का औसत 2.75 बढ़ा → 35.75 अतिरिक्त; 3 नए = 3×43.75 + 35.75 = 167।

उत्तर: (C) 70.40
