BAD
Question : Comprehension:
Read the following passage and answer the questions.
All foodstuffs change. Green fruits become ripe and eggs go bad or rotten. It is the enzymes naturally present in each food which bring about the complex chemical changes that lead first to ripening and then to rotting.
How does one control the activity of enzymes, bacteria, yeasts and moulds in food? All of them require air, moisture and a certain temperature, usually somewhere near the body temperature, to be active. Depriving them of one or more of these will suppress them. All microorganisms can be killed by heat sterilisation. This simply means heating the food to high enough temperatures by boiling, deep or shallow frying, roasting, baking and, for milk particularly, pasteurisation. After such sterilisation, if the food is sealed in airtight containers, it can be kept for a long time. A certain water content in food is necessary for microorganisms to be active. Drying in the sun is a simple way of bringing down the moisture level so low that the enzymes and microorganisms cannot flourish.
Some chemicals can suppress undesirable activity. The addition of salt, vinegar, spices and oil or sugar syrup are other ways of preventing foods from going bad. If heating kills, freezing inactivates the enzymes and microorganisms. This is what happens in a refrigerator, in which fruits, vegetables and milk can be kept for fairly long periods. For meat and fish, even colder temperatures, below freezing point, are necessary for preservation. All foods which are kept cold in this way, once taken out and returned to room temperature, are again subject to spoilage and change.
Question: The main theme of the passage is:
Option 1: Chemicals in foodstuff
Option 2: Ripening of fruit
Option 3: Production of micro-organisms
Option 4: Preservation of food
Correct Answer: Preservation of food
Solution : The fourth option is correct.
The given passage initially talks about the changes that take place in food articles over time. Then we are introduced to some methods to check the growth of various microorganisms inside food items. And finally, some chemicals, such as salt and vinegar, are also mentioned that help in the preservation of foods. It can be concluded that the primary theme of the passage is the preservation of food.

Question : Fill in the blanks with the correct forms of the given nouns for the following questions. Use each noun only one time.
Elle's performance on the dance floor is very bad. She must make______
Option 1: Progress
Option 2: Experience
Option 3: Permission
Option 4: Information
Correct Answer: Progress
Solution : The correct answer is option 1.
Explanation:
Progress is the act of gradually getting better or closer to your objective.
Progress is an abstract noun.
An abstract noun is any object that cannot be perceived using the five senses of the human body. An abstract noun refers to a concept, idea, experience, trait, emotion, or other thing that cannot be seen, heard, tasted, smelt, or touched.
Abstract nouns lack substance and tangibility. Proverbs frequently employ abstract nouns (virtues).
Question : On Dissolution of a partnership firm, out of total debtors of Rs.2,50,000, Rs.10,000 became bad and the rest realised 70%. In the given case, __ will be debited by __ .
Option 1: Realisation A/c, Rs.1,75,000
Option 2: Realisation A/c, Rs.1,68,000
Option 3: Bank A/c, Rs.1,82,000
Option 4: Bank A/c, Rs.1,68,000
Correct Answer: Bank A/c, Rs.1,68,000
Solution : Total Debtors = Rs.250000 - 10000 (Bad). So, Net Debtors will be Rs.240000
Out of this Rs.240000 only 70% is realised.
Hence Rs.168000 (240000*70%) will be debited by Bank A/c.
Hence the Correct answer is Option 4.
