Question : Comprehension: Read the passage and answer the questions. Ever wondered how efficiently the brain works on waking up in the morning, even before the system has had a chance to ingest the hot cuppa! If I could replace myself with a robot, the latter would need to train through 39 steps across different levels (kitchen platform, refrigerator, and stove), three states (solid, liquid, and gas), and manage several timed intervals between sub-tasks. Yet, once done, it will be a spectacle to watch; steps executed with such precision and dependability, will be a given. What’s more, it will address multiple tasks in an interleaved fashion by harvesting the in-betweens. The time between putting the oil in the wok and dropping the seasoning once the oil is heated, between placing the rolled chapati on the tava and flipping the partially roasted piece—such snippets of time that the human uses up to ponder will be efficiently utilised by a robot. To a robot, thinking is a challenge! But it will turn its thinking disability to its advantage. Time division multiplexing in its finest resolution will be in action. Imagine chopping a pair of beans in between flipping chapatis or shelling boiled eggs as the oil in the wok gets heated Who can give up the joy of watching a phoolka puff into a ball on the fire, each puff bringing added cheer? Yet, to a robot, it will be a sight lost in vain. For, our busybody will be placing a bottle under the water purifier to fill water when a phoolka puffs and switching off the button when the next one repeats the feat. Imagine what will happen when such a robot does come into shape. Mad with joy at gaining one hour of precious morning time, humanity will buy it. Next, the additional hour will be played with. The workaholic will add that hour to work hours. Those committed to physical well-being will hit the gym, and a handful will go jogging. Yet, soon, deeper realisations will set in. Sleeping off the extra hour will seem like a logically stable state and will be welcomed by all. Until even sleeping gets boring, in due course, the fate of my robot will be no different from that of the many fancies mankind has evolved through. The “going back to roots” movement will find a new entrant. Like the shift from refined to whole, from polished to brown, from cooked to raw, we will retrace our steps. The robot would be discarded in the e-waste bin, and we would make our way back into the kitchen. Many of the once-familiar sights and smells would then drift slowly back into our senses. Question: “Harvesting the in-betweens” refers to:
Option 1: Utilising the in-between time while multi-tasking
Option 2: The interval between many cups of tea in the course of the day.
Option 3: eating in between chores in the kitchen
Option 4: messing up the kitchen while working there.
Correct Answer: Utilising the in-between time while multi-tasking
Solution : The correct choice is the first option.
Explanation: According to the passage, harvesting the in-betweens refers to efficiently using the intervals or moments between different tasks to address multiple activities simultaneously.
Therefore, the correct answer would be: U

Option 1: 117
Option 2: 111
Option 3: 114
