Question : Comprehension:

Read the passage and answer the questions that follow.

The first time that Agha Shahid Ali spoke to me about his approaching death was on 25 April 2001. The conversation began routinely. I had telephoned to remind him that we had been invited to a friend’s house for lunch. Although he had been under treatment for cancer for some fourteen months, Shahid was still on his feet and perfectly lucid, except for occasional lapses of memory. I heard him thumbing through his engagement book and then suddenly he said: ‘Oh dear. I can’t see a thing.’ There was a brief pause and then he added: ‘I hope this doesn’t mean that I’m dying...’ I did not know how to respond: his voice was completely at odds with the content of what he had just said, light to the point of jocularity. I mumbled something innocuous: ‘No Shahid — of course not. You’ll be fine.’ He cut me short. In a tone of voice that was at once quizzical and direct, he said: ‘When it happens I hope you’ll write something about me.’

I was shocked into silence and a long moment passed before I could bring myself to say the things that people say on such occasions. ‘Shahid you’ll be fine; you have to be strong...’From the window of my study, I could see a corner of the building in which he lived, some eight blocks away. It was just a few months since he moved there: he had been living a few miles away, in Manhattan, when he had a sudden blackout in February 2000. After tests revealed that he had a malignant brain tumour, he decided to move to Brooklyn, to be close to his youngest sister, Samantha, who teaches at the Pratt Institute—a few blocks away from the street where I live. Shahid ignored my reassurances. He began to laugh and it was then that I realised that he was dead serious. I understood that he was entrusting me with a quite specific charge: he wanted me to remember him not through the spoken recitatives of memory and friendship, but through the written word.

He knew that my instincts would have led me to search for reasons to avoid writing about his death: I would have told myself that I was not a poet; that our friendship was of recent date; that there were many others who knew him much better and would be writing from greater understanding and knowledge. All this Shahid had guessed and he had decided to shut off those routes while there was still time. ‘You must write about me.’ Finally, I said: ‘Shahid, I will: I’ll do the best I can.’

Question:

Shahid was perfectly ‘lucid’. This suggests he was:

Option 1: confused

Option 2: in a delirium

Option 3: speaking coherently

Option 4: not intelligible

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: speaking coherently


Solution : The third option is correct.

Let's have a look at the meanings of the given word and the marked option.
Lucid means expressed clearly and easy to understand.
Coherently means in reference to speech in a clear and understandable way.

Thus, the term lucid

Question : Comprehension:
Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow.
Unlike its Nordic neighbours, Sweden decided early on in the pandemic to forgo lockdown in the hope of achieving broad immunity to the coronavirus. While social distancing was promoted, the government allowed bars, restaurants, salons, gyms, and schools to stay open. Initially, Sweden saw death rates from COVID-19 that were similar to those of other European nations that had closed down their economies. But now, the Scandinavian nation's daily death toll per 1 million people is 8.71 compared to the United States 4.59, according to the online publication 'Our World in Data'. Sweden's mortality rate is the highest in Europe. "I'd say it hasn't worked out so well," said Dr. George Rutherford, professor of epidemiology at the University of California, San Francisco. "I think the mortality in Norway is something like ten-fold lower. That's the real comparator." (Norway's daily death rate is less than 0.01 per 1 million people.)
"If you let this go, don't try very hard, or go about it in somewhat of a more restrained way than we have here, this is the price you pay," Rutherford said. "Maybe it didn't hurt businesses, but you have twice the mortality rate of the United States. All those people who died were part of families, and they were citizens and part of the fabric of Swedish society. And now they're gone because of a policy that hasn't worked out quite the way they thought it would."
Scientists estimate herd immunity for the coronavirus is reached when 70–90% of the population becomes immune to a virus, either by becoming infected or getting a protective vaccine.
Despite its relaxed response, Sweden is nowhere near hitting that goal. Tests on 1,118 Stockholm residents carried out by Sweden's Public Health Agency over one week in late April showed that only 7.3% had developed the antibodies needed to stave off the disease. "I think herd immunity is a long way off if we ever reach it," Björn Olsen, a professor of infectious medicine at Uppsala University, told Reuters after the release of the antibody findings.
Rutherford said we can keep doing non-pharmaceutical interventions like contact tracing, mask-wearing, and isolation quarantines, but also develop drugs that work better treating people who already have the infection so they don't require critical care in a hospital.

Question : Directions: In the following question, some parts of the sentence may have some errors. Find out which part of the sentence has an error and select the appropriate option. If the sentence is free from error, select "No Error".

Shakespeare has written (1) / many plays (2) / as well as some poetries. (3) / No Error (4)

Option 1: (1)

Option 2: (2)

Option 3: (3)

Option 4: (4)

Team Careers360 17th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: (3)


Solution : The error lies in the third part of the sentence.

"Poetries" should be replaced with "poetry" as it is also the plural form.

"Poetry" is a term used to describe a whole set of "poems". This is the correct usage and conveys the intended meaning

Question : If $(a-b)=9$, and $(a^3-b^3)$ = 4401, find the value of $ab$.

Option 1: 190

Option 2: 112

Option 3: 162

Option 4: 136

Team Careers360 19th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 136


Solution : Given: $(a-b)=9$ and $\left(a^3-b^3\right)=4401$
Taking, $(a-b)=9$
Cubing both sides, we get,
$⇒a^3-b^3-3ab(a-b)=729$
$⇒4401-3ab(9)=729$
$⇒27ab=4401-729$
$⇒ab=\frac{3672}{27}=136$
Hence, the correct answer is 136.
