6. The following question has a paragraph from which the last sentence has been
deleted. From the given options, choose the one that completes the paragraph in the
most appropriate way.
The experience of modern everyday life is marked by the diffusion of commodities
and ideas fostering a standardization of cultural expressions around the world. An
extreme interpretation of this process, often referred to as globalism, sees advanced
capitalism, boosted by wireless and Internet communications and electronic business
transactions, destroying local traditions and regional distinctions, creating in their
place a homogenized world culture. According to this view, human experience
everywhere is in jeopardy of becoming essentially the same. This appears, however,
to be an overstatement of the phenomenon. _____.
OPTIONS
a) Some observers argue that a rudimentary version of world culture is already taking
shape among certain individuals who share similar values, aspirations, or lifestyles.
b) The result is a collection of elite groups whose unifying ideals transcend
geographical limitations.
c) There are global subgroups comprising cosmopolitans who nurture an intellectual
appreciation for local cultures.
d) Though homogenizing influences do exist, people are far from creating a single
overarching world culture.
e) Transnational workforce that circulates in a social world with multiple home bases
has gained access to a unique network of individuals, opportunities and cultures.

7-Satire, always as sterile as it in shameful and as impotent as it is insolent, paid them
that usual homage which mediocrity pays to genius - doing, here as always, infinite
harm to the public, blinding them to what is beautiful, teaching them that irreverence
which is the source of all vileness and narrowness of life, but harming the artist not at
all, rather confirming him in the perfect rightness of his work and ambition.
a) I call it our Renaissance because it is indeed a sort of new birth of the spirit of
man.
b) For to disagree with three- fourths of the British public on all points is one of the
first elements of sanity, one of the deepest consolations in all moments of spiritual
doubt.
c) Because this love of definite conception, this clearness of vision, this artistic sense
of limit, is the characteristic of all great work of art and poetry.
d) The heart contains passion but the imagination alone contains art,' says Charles
Baudelaire.

8-Technocrats can of course reliably make an electricity plant work better. The goal is
simple: to produce electricity at as low a price as possible. This is mostly a matter of
engineering, not politics. Economic policies are usually not technocratic in this sense.
They involve tradeoffs: some may lead to higher inflation but lower unemployment;
some help investors, others workers. Economists call policies where no one can be
made better off without making someone else worse off Pareto efficient.
_____________
OPTIONS
a) In reality, few policies are Pareto efficient.
b) If no one was made worse off by choosing one policy, the policy would indeed be
purely "technical."
c) Economic policies cannot be left to technocrats.
d) Banking "reform," is an example: it soon required government bail-outs, leaving a
few people much richer, but the country much poorer.
e) Sometimes there are policies that can promote both growth and equality, and the
job of good economists is to search for them.

9-Global meat consumption is predicted to double by 2020. Yet in Europe and North
America, there is growing concern about the ethics of the way meat and eggs are
produced. The consumption of veal has fallen sharply since it became widely known
that to produce so-called “white”- actually pale pink- veal, newborn calves are
separated from their mothers, deliberately made anemic, denied roughage, and kept
in stalls so narrow that they cannot walk or turn around. ___________
OPTIONS
a) Concern about how we treat farm animals is far from being limited to the small
percentage of people who are vegetarians or even vegans- eating no animal products
at all.
b) A common view is that we are justified in eating meat, only as long as the animals
have a decent life before they are killed.
c) Some collapse and, unable to reach food or water, soon die, their fate irrelevant to
the economics of the enterprise as a whole.
d) Defenders of these production methods argue that they are a regrettable but
necessary response to a growing population's demand for food.
e) As consumers, we have the power- and the moral obligation- to refuse to support
farming methods that are cruel to animals and bad for us.

10-It's also what Vindi Banga employed when trying to figure out how to sell Unilever
products to rural Indian women. Instead of spending on advertising, the company
established the women as small-business operators, providing loans to buy Unilever
products and resell them in their communities. The women got jobs, and Unilever got
a new distribution channel, notes Banga. “These ladies became brand ambassadors,
brand teachers and brand distributors — all in one.” __________________
a Rural markets have come up in a big way in the past few years.
b It is astonishing that the potential of rural markets was discovered so late.
c In emerging markets, companies work very hard to get the value equation right.
d It is not surprising that Indian executives tend to pay particular attention to the
rural consumer.

Between you and I ,the secretary is not a gentleman.
answer give is between u and me..
explanation involves finding the word in objective case.my doubt is how to find that ? I mean objective case is when someone is recieving something eg
rafa(subject) defeated nole(object) in roland garros.but in the above sentence m not able to identlfy objective case.
One more doubt.I tried finding the meaning but still couldn't grasp completely.
can anyone tell me the clear difference between words criticise and analyse?(The question asked in RC passage are like was author criticising ? was he analysing ? ) also How can i tell in an RC passage whether author was argumentative ?

Hi!
Here it goes-
1) Criticize: Highlighting someone's/something's shortcomings.
2) Analytical: Examining someone/something and listing its features/positives/negatives.
3) Argumentative: Anything that can be countered, more like an opinion. For example, if I say that 'The accident happened due to the negligence of the policemen'. This is an argument, as someone else can pitch in with a counter.
Hope it helped.
@mjuneja If i analyse something,i would be speaking strictly in terms of what i got after my analysis.right? Also,if i am analysing i will require some data,some fact right.whereas i can criticise
purely based on what i think ? am i correct ?
Also about the argumentative how can i know that author was argumentative ? Because a healthy discussion can also be argument,and i think argument is not a purely negative term.
so is there a way to identify if author was argumentative ?

Imagine the author has written about a movie
1. Analyze - examine methodically and in detail for the purposes of explanation or interpretation.
Here the author would observe various parameters of the movie like the subject, story, dialogues, music, direction and acting by the actors. The author may also compare it to other similar works.
2. Criticise 창€“ There are two meanings for this word. A) Disapprovingly indicate the faults of. B) Form and express a critical assessment of (a literary or artistic work).
If the author simply lists all that he dislikes about the movie, it is an example of meaning A but, if the author lists both his likes and dislikes, or even dislikes alone but, along with appropriate reasons then it is B.
3. Argumentative 창€“ This word also has two meanings. A) Given to arguing. B) Using or characterized by systematic reasoning.
Now the first meaning is applicable to interpersonal interactions, ex. XYZ is an argumentative person. In written form it is generally meaning B.
Now to verify whether an author has been argumentative or not, depends upon the various aspects of the passage. If I am saying something to you in person then you are using my volume levels and facial expressions as cues.
Similarly in a passage the choice of words and their usage are your cues to volume and expressions. These are the primary indicators. The secondary ones are active/passive sentences, tenses, arrangement of the ideas, repetition of key points, structure and flow of the passage, etc.

The same aspects are also required to assess the tone of the passage, implied ideas and other similar abstract queries.
Yes that seems a lot, but it is not so.
Solve as many RC passages as possible and then analyze your mistakes and try not to repeat them. Most of us are unknowingly repeating the same mistakes.
Try and read as much as possible. Read newspapers, magazines, short stories, novels, etc. Not only will it help in RC and VA, but it also increments GK and GA levels.
