Question : Comprehension:
Read the following passage and answer the questions.
For birds to survive, they must learn to live with and off humans, and those birds, like crows, sparrows, and mynahs, who do this to perfection, continue to thrive as our cities grow, whereas the purely wild birds, who depend on forests for life, are rapidly disappearing because forests are disappearing. If you have just a bit of garden and perhaps a guava tree, you will be visited by innumerable bulbuls, mynahs, tailor birds, parrots, etc. Or, if you own an old house, you will have to share it with pigeons and sparrows. And, if you have neither a garden nor a rooftop, you will still be visited by the crows.
Where man goes, the crow follows. He has learned to perfect the art of living off of humans. He will, I am sure, be the first bird on the moon, scavenging among the paper bags and cartons left behind by untidy astronauts. Crows favour the densest areas of the human population, and there must be one for every human. Many crows seem to have been humans in their previous lives; they possess all the cunning and sense of self preservation of man. At the same time, there are many humans who have obviously been crows, we haven't lost their thieving instincts.
Watch a crow sidling along the garden wall with an eye at the kitchen door and any attendant humans. He waits in the background till his chance comes, and then he pounces! I have even known a crow to make off with an egg from the breakfast table. The mynah, however, is more of a gentleman. He prefers fruit on the tree to scraps from the kitchen and visits the garden in expectation of handouts. He is quite handsome, too, with his bright orange bill. Although the blue jay is quite capable of making his living in the forest, he seems to show a preference for human haunts. He would rather perch on a telegraph wire because he finds it a better launching pad for his sudden rocket flights and aerial acrobatics!

Question : Directions: Study the given pattern carefully and select the number that can replace the question mark (?) in it.
Option 1: 369
Option 2: 504
Option 3: 444
Option 4: 568
Correct Answer: 504
Solution : Add one to the first and second numbers and then multiply the resultants to get the third number – Row I: (11 + 1) × (14 + 1) = 12 × 15 = 180 Row II: (17 + 1) × (18 + 1) = 18
Question : Which chemical law proposes that "soft drinks and soda bottles are sealed under high pressure to increase the solubility of CO2?"
Option 1: Dalton’s Law
Option 2: Henry's Law
Option 3: Ohm's Law
Option 4: Raoult’s Law
Correct Answer: Henry's Law
Solution : The correct answer is Henry's Law.
Henry's Law is one of the gas laws formulated by the British chemist William Henry in 1803.
According to Henry's Law, the solubility of a gas in a liquid is directly proportional to the pressure of the
Question : Which of the following controls the wind speed?
Option 1: Pressure gradient
Option 2: Rotation of Earth
Option 3: Insolation
Option 4: None of the options is correct
Correct Answer: Pressure gradient
Solution : The correct answer is Pressure gradient.
Differences in air pressure can cause air masses to travel from one point to another. Air masses tend to move from high-pressure locations to low-pressure locations. As a result, winds blow from high-pressure zones to low-pressure areas. Hence

Question : A person standing at a distance looks at a building having a height of 1000 metres. The angle between the top of the building and the ground is 30o. At what approximate distance (in metres) is the person standing away from the building?
Option 1: 1000
Option 2: 936
Option 3: 1732
Option 4: 1542
Correct Answer: 1732
Solution : Given: AB = Height of the building = 1000 metres Let the distance of the man from the building, BC be $x$. From $\triangle$ ABC, we get $\tan 30° = \frac{AB}{BC}$ ⇒ $\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}= \frac{1000}{x}$ ⇒ $ x = 1000\sqrt{3}$ ⇒ $x$ = 1000 × 1.732
Question : Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
It is not easy to distinguish a loyal friend ______ a flatterer.

Question : Direction: Given equations are solved on the basis of a certain system. Find the correct answer for the unsolved equation on that basis.
2 + 4 + 6 = 48 and 3 + 2 + 8 = 48 , then 2 + 5 + 7 = ?
Option 1: 48
Option 2: 70
Option 3: 14
Option 4: 59
Correct Answer: 70
Solution : Here, in the given equations, we have–
2 + 4 + 6 = 48 ⇒ 2 x 4 x 6 = 48 3 + 2 + 8 = 48 ⇒ 3 x 2 x 8 = 48
Here, from the above two equations we can
