aap correct hai. CL sahi bol raha hai.
Please tell me if the usage of modifiers is faulty.
Motivated by the belief that the most powerful ideas for fighting poverty and hardship will come from ordinary people,Gupta has scoured rural India for its hidden innovations.
or,
Motivating by the belief that the most powerful ideas for fighting poverty and hardship will come from ordinary people,Gupta has scoured rural India for its hidden innovations.
or both are wrong.

has scoured...motivated by hi hoga keeping in mind the parallel construction
@Love_CAT Motivat"ing" kyun hoga? Gupta is the one who believes in "the most powerful...blah blah". This belief is his driving force; he is not using this statement to motivate others.ďťż

ha that is correct.
I was confused with this one.
Gupta has scoured rural India for its hidden innovations, motivating by the belief that the most powerful ideas for fighting poverty and hardship will come from ordinary people.
CL says it's correct.

Summing it up.
1)Joe is regularly exercising with Joe, so that he can remain healthy. (Incorrect)
2)Joe is regularly exercising with Joe, so that his body remains in good shape.(Correct)
sahi hai kya?
@Love_CAT Arey kahaan. I just checked PM8 solutions. CL says "motivating" is wrong, and "motivated" is correct! I marked option C here, but the correct one was A. :banghead:
The question says detect the "incorrect" sentences. Not correct sentences.
@Love_CAT Pata nahi, dono hi sentences correct lag rahe hai. I am not sure if there is a technical aspect to the usage of "healthy" in those sentences. :/
Some numbers can be expressed as the sum of three of their factors. E.g. 12 can be expressed as the sum of 2, 4 and 6. How many other such numbers are there which are less than 100?
a 16
b 15
c 7
d 2
Iski approach batao koi ??

ha bhai.
I too marked C I see.
to the market hoga na?? or I feel so :(
@Love_CAT to market is fine here I think. I have seen the phrase "bring to market". Googling "bring to market" throws up a lot of articles using the exact phrase, so it is probably correct.
It refers to making something "marketable" or converting an idea to a proper product, I guess. No particular market is implied, so "the" is not required.

First sentence is incorrect because you cannot say (though can infer :mg:) he points to Joe.
I referred to both Manhattan and Aristotle SC.
But was a bit doubtful regarding the second one.

@utsav7986 said:@nits2811 16 hai kya answer?
Approach toh batao sir...answer 15 hain...question dhyaan se pado toh samajh jaoge ki answer 15 kyu hain...
@nits2811 said:Approach toh batao sir...answer 15 hain...question dhyaan se pado toh samajh jaoge ki answer 15 kyu hain...
Haan yaar, samajh gaya..
Other such nos poocha tha... 😃 Jaldibaazi me galtiyaan ho jaati hain.. Sab budhaape ka kusur hai :P
I found a pattern in the numbers and then generalized it for nos till 100:
12=6+4+2 which is nothing but (12/2, 12/3, 12/6)
Same I found with 6 (6=3+2+1)
So all this prompted me to find nos which must be divisible by 2,3,6 i.e. all nos which are divisible by 6, which are 16 in number till 100..
Otherwise, if it could strike that (1/2+1/3+1/6 =1), then the question could also be solved easily using the above mentioned logic...

yeh koi unproc ka ques hoga.. Last year proc me tha.. !! I remember marking 16 .. others main bhi miss kar diya tha... 
thoda sa observation then one can realize ki saare multiples of 6 can be represented in that way.... so 15..

PM 1 2012...revising all the mocks...toh iski approach thk se samaj nhi aa rhi thi...kya likh rakha tha CL waalo ne...haan ab samaj gya...
so what are you guys planning to do in the last few days before CAT? share ur plans if you are comfortable with it
Waleed Rally says that the genius of American patriotism is that it manages to be inclusive. The same cannot easily be said of Australian patriotism, and certainly cannot be said of the European version, which is so often expressed in moral panics about the supposed disloyalty of migrants. He then asks: What accounts for the difference? At first blush, the answer is as simple as it is patriotically appealing: that the patriotism of minorities simply mirrors the patriotism of the majority. That is, patriotism is a result of social pressure. If we only demand it stridently enough, our minorities will learn to love us. Or, to put it more acerbically, multiculturalism is a death wish. Such has been the diagnosis of a thousand culture warriors in recent years. Europe's flirtation with multiculturalism has killed its sense of self and allowed its recalcitrant minorities to disappear into a fog of cultural relativism and escape any sense of loyalty to the nation. Europe's multiculturalism is even said to have fostered subcultures hostile to it.
There is something different operating in America, something more subtle, complex and ingenious than the brutish social politics of monoculturalism. Something that is not ultimately about multiculturalism or migration, but about a more comprehensive phenomenon: national identity. There is something in the way America thinks and talks about itself that enables widespread national loyalty and astonishing diversity to coexist. Even its rioters rarely shun their American identity; instead, they assert their place in the nation. America, like Australia, New Zealand and Canada, is part of the New World and created from settlement (or
conquest) and migration. This creates a fundamentally different dynamic, for it is immediately apparent that there is nothing organic about these nations. The vanquished indigenous aside, everyone is a migrant to some degree, which necessarily fosters a more fluid, open notion of national identity: one that is not so firmly anchored in ethnicity as in Europe. Yet this does not explain why the United States should be any different to Australia.
Rally says that America has its creed, but one that corresponds to no particular religious tradition. It is a civil creed constructed on the central political idea of individual liberty. The US was settled by people fleeing religious persecution in Europe; it was thus almost inevitable that freedom, especially of religion, would become the new nation's touchstone. A people who had struggled to attain religious freedom could not easily found a nation on principles that denied that right to others: Theirs is a sense of self that is forward-looking, oriented towards constant improvement.
In contrast the message of Australia's staunchest patriots is that ours is a great country with a great history and no need for change. It is a message that replicates the European sense of national self, one bound in a fixed history. The history wars were so intense in Australia for the very reason that our sense of national pride is not forward-looking.
29. In the passage, the author is primarily concerned with which of the following ?
(1) Criticizing European and Australian patriotism
(2) Attempting to learn from American patriotism.
(3) Exploring the contrast between American and Australian patriotism.

31. What does the author imply by stating “Yet this does not explain why the United States should be any different to Australia.”?

B. The US and Australia are both migrant nations but with different patriotic fervor.
C. Both the US and Australia are not anchored in ethnicity like Europe.
D. The ethnic factor which makes the dynamics of patriotism in Europe different from that in the US,
does not characterize Australia.
(1) B and C (2) B, C and D (3) A, B and C 4. A, B, C and D
32. Which of the following cannot be inferred from the passage ?
