Correct Answer: 36

Solution : Given:
BOTTLE is coded as 74, and PERSON is coded as 81.

Add the positional values of the alphabet of BOTTLE and in the resultant add the positional value of the first and the last alphabet of the given word to obtain the required code –
B→2; O→15; T→20; T→20; L→12; E→2
2 + 15 + 20 + 20 + 12 + 5 = 74⇒74 + 2 + 5 = 81
PERSON is coded as 81 –
P→16; E→5; R→18; S→19; O→15; N→14
16 + 5 + 18 + 19 + 15 + 14 = 87⇒87 + 16 + 14 = 117
Similarly, follows the same pattern for BANANA→
B→2; A→1; N→14; A→1; N→14; A→1
2 + 1 + 14 + 1 + 14 + 1 = 33; 33 + 2 + 1 = 36

So, BANANA will be coded as 36. Hence, the second option is correct.

Correct Answer: 2, 1, 4, 3, 5

Solution : Given:
1. Fragile 2. Fracture 3. Fraud 4. Fragment 5. Fridge

Step 1: Compare the first and second letters of each word. Since all the words start with the same letter F and are followed by r then move on to the next letter.
Step 2: The third letter of each word is either a or i. Based on the alphabetical order of these letters, we can arrange them – Fragile, Fracture, Fraud, Fragment, Fridge
Step 3: Compare the fourth letter of (Fragile, Fracture, Fraud, Fragment). Fracture will come before Fragile and Fragment and Fraud will come at last. As c comes before g and u comes at last.
Step 4: Compare the fourth letter of (Fragile, Fragment). Fragile will come before Fragment in the sequence as i comes before m in the alphabetical system.

So, the sequence is Fracture, Fragile, Fragment, Fraud, Fridge or 2, 1, 4, 3, 5. Hence, the second option is correct.

Correct Answer: JHU

Solution : Given:
USF, ZXK, ECP, ?

Add 5 to the letters of the previous term to obtain the next term in the series –
USF→U + 5 = Z; S + 5 = X; F + 5 = K
ZXK→Z + 5 = E; X + 5 = C; K + 5 = P
ECP→E + 5 = J; C + 5 = H; P + 5 = U

So, JHU is the missing term in the series. Hence, the second option is correct.

Correct Answer: Bhanu said, "We need to work this out from our angle."

Solution : The first option is the correct choice.

The given sentence is in indirect speech, and we need to convert it to direct speech.
When we change an indirect speech to a direct speech, we must follow these rules:

• The reported verb "said" remains the same in the reporting speech part.
• The conjunction "that" would be used.
• In direct speech, the pronouns "they" and "their" (third-person pronouns) are changed to "we" and "our" (first-person pronouns), respectively.
• The verb "needed" in the indirect part is changed to "need" in the direct speech part.
• The demonstrative "that" in the indirect part is changed to "this" in the direct speech part.

Thus, the correct answer is: Bhanu said, "We need to work this out from our angle."

Correct Answer: hostile

Solution : The correct choice is the third option.

Inimical is used to describe something that is harmful, unfriendly, or adverse.

Hostile means unfriendly, antagonistic, or opposed. Both of these words convey a sense of opposition, and thus, are synonyms.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

• Boisterous means to be cheerful and energetic. 
• Frightening means terrifying.
• Energetic means full of energy.

Correct Answer: surrender

Solution : The correct choice is the fourth option.

Explanation: When considering the meaning of prevail, which implies overcoming, succeeding, or winning, the antonym should convey the idea of yielding, giving up, or admitting defeat. Surrender fits this context, as it signifies the act of yielding or conceding in the face of opposition.
The meanings of the other options are as follows:

• Succeed: This word means to achieve success, accomplish a goal, or attain a desired outcome.
• Prove: This word refers to demonstrating the truth or validity of something.
• Control: This word means to manage, direct, or regulate a situation or entity.

Therefore, the correct antonym is surrender.
