Question : Metal tea pots have wooden handles because:

Option 1: wood is bad conductor of heat

Option 2: it prevents electric shock

Option 3: it gives beauty to the pots

Option 4: it is hygenic

Team Careers360 24th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: wood is bad conductor of heat


Solution : The correct option is wood is bad conductor of heat.

 

Tea pots made of metal have wooden handles because wood has low thermal conductivity compared to metal. This design choice ensures that when the teapot is heated, the wooden handle remains relatively cool, allowing for safe and comfortable handling when pouring hot liquid. If the handle were constructed from metal like the rest of the teapot, it would quickly become very hot and pose a risk of burning the user's hand.

Question : In the following question, out of the given four alternatives, select the one which best expresses the meaning of the idiom or phrase.
To keep an eye on

Option 1: To be able to understand everything.

Option 2: To see someone in a bad light.

Option 3: To watch over closely.

Option 4: To keep distance from.

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: To watch over closely.


Solution : The most appropriate option is the third option.

People use the idiom "to keep an eye on" to convey the idea of watching over closely or monitoring someone or something attentively. It implies a sense of vigilance or supervision.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

To be able to understand everything: This option is more about comprehension or understanding and doesn't convey the idea of active monitoring or keeping watch.

To see someone in a bad light: This option refers to forming a negative opinion about someone, which is not synonymous with keeping an eye on them.

To keep distance from: This option suggests maintaining physical distance but doesn't capture the essence of actively watching or monitoring someone.

Therefore, the correct answer is to watch over closely.
