@Kayur Hi. What were the options for 10? Don't remember what I marked lol. Also, can you check the answer for 25?

I'm making 40/100 considering I've done Q10 wrong. How about others?

Some questions from section 3: (p.s. those who gave the test would realise what I am talking about. For people looking out for questions, you won't get what I have written)


1. Spelling of BELIEVE
2. Meaning of temerity - audacity
3. FIB: Some statement on Hitler and Churchill. Derisive seemed to be the answer
4. FIJ: Marked JJF. Don't remember the statements exactly
5. Facebook parajumble. Was easy
6. Tone of the passage. Was confused between serene and optimistic. Marked Optimistic
7. Some passage on eating fish from small lakes and big lakes. And conventional logic and crap. Was confused between 2 options. Don't remember which I marked finally
8. Framing a sentence on "if you need advice, I'll be there for you."
9. Find the conclusion weakening statement. Paragraph contained about how government needed to make some investment in steel production and the amount we export. Was confused between last 2 options. 1 had the private sector thing and the other was that even though we are one of the highest producers, the demand is a lot more.
10. What does the passage infer? Talked about how government bailed out builders. Marked the answer where it shouldn't go to banks or use tax payers' money
11. Match the columns. I think the word beat was used in 4 sentences and meanings were to be matched. The beating in a faulty engine of a bike was intermittent sounds and that of the army retreat was rhythmic. I hope.
12. Another match the columns. phrases with meaning. was fairly easy. don't remember the options

Let me know on your thoughts on the answer. If I get responses, will think of the other questions as well. Hopefully, people come up with them

@Kayur
one small correction budget 1950-1951 was presented by Sir John Mathai.
it was in the options as well..
8
@mathlover options I remember are the stupa, dharma chakra ... dont remember the other two

Maybe a 50/100 in Gk for me ... 13 Correct / 2 Incorrect
9
@arun231188 Correction made but maybe the question was who was the chairman of first finance commission... If budget was asked then Sir John Mathai is the right answer
10

@Kayur

btb how many attempts?

3) For the FIB question was something like this- The deviousness of Hitler plan ______ Winston Churchill, his staunch opponent .... The options were suprised, derided, other two I dont remember but the seemed vagued ... marked derided
4) FIJ had a statement According to Hindu mythology there are thousand of languages something like that ... I think I marked it as a Judgement
5) Facebook one was easy ;)
6) tone marked it as serene
7) LEFT IT ALONE :)
8) Dont remeber exactly but I marked option 1, coz others had the line "you are welcome to to approach me" and we had to mark a concise answer
9) I marked the point which said India's Demand is huge that is why we import
10) I dont remember but I think there was a point which said A distinction of this type should be kept in Mind.. I marked that as answer
11) and 12) Match the column was easy .. A statement I remember is "It beat my mind that how do u manage to do it. Answer was "beyond my comprehension" ... Other one was that rythmic, faulty engine bike question .. pretty sure didnt mark army and rythmic but dont remember the statements completely

13) There was one passage on ebooks and e-reader... We had to give a title .... I marked End of an Era of printed books ... something like that
14) There was one FIb .. The wages of Sin ___ Death ... Ans: IS ... Dont remember what I marked

@Kayur
was drafting an answer to post no 9. And my browser closed. Damn!

I was also adding Q 15. Here's the article : http://articles.economictimes.indiatimes.com/2012-11-22/news/35300792_1_bsnl-and-mtnl-domestic-telephony-private-mobile-phone-firms

Economic times makes it safe to mark it as a newspaper article then?

Other options were business magazine, annual review of telecom sector and another annual review of telecom kind of option. Marked newspaper article.
17

Yes it seemed like a newspaper article ... In a Annual report the data is not in indirect form ... secondary speech if I can say ... But our paragraph had indirect speech ... Sibal said this to trai and all ... so it is definately NOT a report

Gut feeling told me it was a newspaper article ... should have marked that 😞
Didnt answer this question

@Kayur
ok I will reply again

3. Derided seems right. I too marked it
4. The number of languages were 330 in that statement. Looked like a fact. Not sure though
6. Can't find the passage. However serene seems right as the tone seemed to be more of calm rather than optimism. I have marked optimism though
8. As the wanted it concise, I marked the last option where it was written that you can come to me whenever you need help.
9. Marked that myself. Hope both of us are right.
10. Yes. Was confused between what you marked and what I marked.
11. I think the army's beating retreat is rhythmic. Check this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beating_Retreat
13. I marked introduction to e-books. Seemed more of an introduction. The option which you marked was getting me confused.
14. The question was: The wages of _____ death.
a. sins be b. sins are c. sins is d. sin is
marked 'a' but found this to be in the holy bible. 'd' is the correct option

@xT

was business standard limited an option? I remember Hindu and India Today. Marked India Today but seems wrong.

@mathlover
That wiki article makes it clear ... army statement was rhythmic
