Q3783.Sentences of a paragraph are given below in jumbled order. Arrange the sentences in the correct order to form a meaningful and coherent paragraph.
1. This process, known as evaporation, plays a crucial role in regulating Earth's temperature and maintaining the water cycle.
2. It occurs when water molecules at the surface gain enough energy to escape into the atmosphere as vapor.
3. The rate of evaporation depends on several factors such as temperature, humidity, and wind speed.
4. Evaporation is one of the key processes through which water moves from the earth's surface to the atmosphere.
- A4, 2, 3, 1
- B2, 3, 4, 1
- C3, 2, 1, 4
- D4, 3, 2, 1
Show answer
Concept: Start with the definition, then mechanism, factors and finally importance.
- 4 introduces evaporation by name – the opener.
- 2 ('It occurs when…') explains how it happens.
- 3 gives the factors; 1 ('This process…') sums up its role → 4, 2, 3, 1.
Trick: A sentence beginning with 'It' or 'This' cannot open the paragraph – that removes B and C.
Answer: (A) 4, 2, 3, 1
अवधारणा: पहले परिभाषा, फिर प्रक्रिया, फिर कारक और अंत में महत्त्व।
- 4 वाष्पीकरण का परिचय देता है – आरंभ।
- 2 ('It occurs when…') प्रक्रिया बताता है।
- 3 में कारक, 1 ('This process…') में निष्कर्ष → 4, 2, 3, 1
ट्रिक: 'It' या 'This' से शुरू वाक्य पहला नहीं हो सकता – B, C हट जाते हैं।
उत्तर: (A) 4, 2, 3, 1
Q3784.Select the correct option:
The committee recommended that the new policy ____ implemented immediately.
- Ais
- Bwas
- Cbe
- Dwill be
Show answer
Concept: After recommend/suggest/insist/demand + that, use the base verb.
- 'that the new policy be implemented' – base form 'be' for every subject.
- is / was / will be do not fit this mandative clause.
Trick: Insert an invisible 'should': that the policy (should) be implemented.
Answer: (C) be
अवधारणा: recommend/suggest/insist/demand + that के बाद क्रिया का मूल रूप आता है।
- 'that the new policy be implemented' – हर कर्ता के साथ 'be'।
- is, was, will be यहाँ सही नहीं।
ट्रिक: बीच में अदृश्य 'should' मानें: that the policy (should) be implemented।
उत्तर: (C) be
Q3785.Find the part of the sentence that contains an error:
The committee, which oversee multiple departments, (1)/ has been granted additional funds (2)/ to implement the new training initiative (3)/ across all regional offices. (4)
- A(1)
- B(2)
- C(3)
- D(4)
Show answer
Concept: A relative pronoun takes the verb form of its antecedent.
- 'which' refers to 'The committee' – acting as one unit (singular).
- Main verb is also singular ('has been granted').
- So write 'which oversees' – error in part (1).
Trick: Match the verb inside the which-clause with the main verb: has → oversees.
Answer: (A) (1)
अवधारणा: Relative pronoun की क्रिया उसके पूर्ववर्ती संज्ञा के अनुसार होती है।
- 'which' = The committee – एक इकाई (एकवचन)।
- मुख्य क्रिया भी एकवचन है (has been granted)।
- अतः 'which oversees' – त्रुटि भाग (1) में।
ट्रिक: which-clause की क्रिया को मुख्य क्रिया से मिलाएँ: has → oversees।
उत्तर: (A) (1)
Q3786.Select the word that is opposite in meaning:
Placatory
- AConcilliatory
- BCalming
- CAggravating
- DSoothing
Show answer
Concept: Placatory = meant to calm someone or make them less angry.
- Opposite = aggravating (making anger or a problem worse).
- Conciliatory, Calming, Soothing are synonyms of placatory.
Trick: 'Placate' = pacify; its opposite is provoke/aggravate.
Answer: (C) Aggravating
अवधारणा: Placatory = किसी का गुस्सा शांत करने वाला।
- विलोम = Aggravating (गुस्सा या समस्या बढ़ाने वाला)।
- Conciliatory, Calming, Soothing – सब पर्यायवाची।
ट्रिक: Placate = शांत करना; विपरीत = provoke/aggravate।
उत्तर: (C) Aggravating

- CThe sudden noise was startling the sleeping birds.
- DThe sleeping birds in the trees are startled by the sudden noise.
Show answer
Concept: Simple past passive: was/were + V3 + by + agent.
- Object 'the sleeping birds in the trees' (plural) becomes the subject → 'were'.
- startled → were startled by the sudden noise.
- B (past perfect), C (continuous), D (present) change the tense.
Trick: Tense must stay the same – startled (V2) → was/were + V3.
Answer: (A) The sleeping birds in the trees were startled by the sudden noise.
अवधारणा: Simple past का passive: was/were + V3 + by + कर्ता।
- कर्म 'the sleeping birds in the trees' (बहुवचन) कर्ता बनेगा → were
- startled → were startled by the sudden noise
- B, C, D में काल बदल गया है।
ट्रिक: काल वही रहे – V2 वाले वाक्य में was/were + V3।

- कर्ता: unidentified hackers
- had been stolen → stole
- Unidentified hackers reportedly stole confidential data. B, C, D तथ्य बदलते हैं।
ट्रिक: पहले 'by + कर्ता' खोजें – उत्तर उसी से शुरू होगा।
उत्तर: (A) Unidentified hackers reportedly stole confidential data.
Directions (Qs. 90-94): Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions that follow.
In the contemporary era, the relationship between technology and human cognition has become increasingly intertwined. Digital tools have transformed how we process, store, and retrieve information. On one hand, technology enhances efficiency — allowing instantaneous access to knowledge, fostering global communication, and enabling complex problem-solving. On the other hand, constant digital engagement has raised concerns about attention fragmentation, superficial learning, and declining memory retention. Psychologists argue that reliance on external devices for information storage — commonly termed as "digital amnesia" — may erode our natural cognitive abilities. When individuals delegate tasks like remembering phone numbers, dates, or even directions to devices, they strengthen convenience but weaken mental endurance. However, advocates of digital integration claim that such delegation allows the human mind to focus on higher-order thinking rather than routine recall. They argue that every technological revolution — printing press, calculator, or computer — has similarly redefined intelligence rather than diminished it. The central challenge, therefore, is not resisting technology but using it judiciously — balancing cognitive independence with technological assistance. The future of human intellect will likely depend on how effectively individuals cultivate mindfulness in an age of mental automation.
Q3790.Which of the following best captures the essence of the passage?
- ATechnology has made human cognition obsolete.
- BTechnology has both enhanced and challenged human cognition.

- अंत में संतुलित उपयोग की बात → दोनों पक्ष।
ट्रिक: 'obsolete', 'replaced', 'completely' जैसे चरम विकल्प हटा दें।
उत्तर: (B) Technology has both enhanced and challenged human cognition.

Answer: (B) He said, "I was reading a novel when you called me."
अवधारणा: वापस direct में बदलते समय सर्वनाम बदलें और समय के अनुसार काल रखें।
- सर्वनाम: he → I, I/him → you/me
- 'when I called him' बीता हुआ क्षण है, इसलिए 'I was reading' ही रहेगा।
- इसलिए विकल्प B – दोनों क्रियाएँ भूतकाल में, सर्वनाम बदले हुए।
ट्रिक: Past continuous + when + simple past एक तय जोड़ा है – दोनों भूतकाल में।
उत्तर: (B) He said, "I was reading a novel when you called me."

Trick: Cover the 'of …' phrase with your finger: 'The emergence … has reignited'.
Answer: (C) (3)
अवधारणा: क्रिया मुख्य संज्ञा से मेल खाती है, बाद के वाक्यांशों से नहीं।
- मुख्य संज्ञा 'emergence' एकवचन है।
- 'of new infectious variants' और 'amid … efforts' केवल विशेषण वाक्यांश हैं।
- 'has reignited' होना चाहिए – त्रुटि भाग (3) में।
ट्रिक: 'of …' वाला हिस्सा ढक दें: 'The emergence … has reignited'।
उत्तर: (C) (3)
