Questions
1. Direction: Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow:
Russia’s Ukraine invasion will soon enter its third month. It has gone on longer than initially expected and
appears likely to continue. The ray of hope is the now unlikely scenario of more countries being drawn into
the conflict. The world, however, has not been spared the economic fallout of war. It’s working its way into
the global economy through three channels. It’s pushed up fuel prices. Separately, other commodity prices
and logistics costs have escalated. Finally, the uncertainty caused by war is weakening global demand.
The three channels are not pushing in the same direction. Weak demand partially offsets the
fuel/commodity price pressure. The impact on India, therefore, is unlikely to be as severe as it appeared
six weeks ago. This is because elevated inflation was the primary challenge India faced at the start of the
war. Core inflation, excluding food and fuel, has been both sticky and higher than pre-Covid period. In this
backdrop, the war’s impact on crude posed a big challenge. RBI now expects the crude price to average
$100 a barrel, which is a little over 30% of the Budget’s assumption. The recent price trend suggests RBI’s
revised assumption is well-founded.
Food price build-up in 2022-23 came largely through vegetables and edible oil. Following the forecast of a
normal monsoon and given India’s self-sufficiency in both cereals and vegetables, edible oil prices remain
vulnerable to global forces. In all, retail inflation is likely to hover around 6%, RBI’s upper limit of tolerance.
The related question is, how will this impact growth as interest rates are now sure to harden? This month,
the RBI forecast that economic growth in FY23 will be 7.2%, lower than what was expected before the
war. The central bank simultaneously signalled a tighter monetary policy.
Global uncertainty poses downside risks to growth. Therefore, fiscal policy has to take over the primary
role of boosting growth. In this context, India is not badly placed. Inflation has provided a boost to tax
revenues. In FY22, the Government of India’s (GoI’s) tax revenue overshot the Budget target to just
exceed Rs. 27 lakh crore. Importantly, it grew about twice as fast as nominal GDP and was 11.7% of GDP,
a two-decade high. GoI has the space to first slash fuel taxes to cushion the economically vulnerable and
push ahead with its infrastructure spending. It’s fiscal policy’s turn to do the heavy lifting and draw in
private investment.

5. Direction: Read the passage given below, and answer the questions that follow:
The Government of India’s (GoI’s) new army recruitment policy – a 75:25 ratio determining how many new
soldiers are let go and how many are retained after 4 years – makes fiscal sense. Defence salaries and
pension bills account for roughly half of the annual defence budget of Rs. 5.2 lakh crore. Bear in mind that
roughly 80% of service personnel in the US retire without a pension. Also, China did much more over the
last 8 years, pruning its land-based army by 50% while boosting its navy and air force. PLA retrenched 3
lakh troops. By these metrics, India’s recruitment reform is not radical. And given how much the Chinese
defence has modernised, India will need more than what it saves from rationalised recruitment. But will the
new scheme affect the army as a fighting force?
Many retired army generals have raised important questions on whether the new recruitment plan will
strain existing training resources and produce a quality problem, and whether at unit levels, the mix of
long-term and short-term soldiers will skew in favour of the latter and affect battle readiness. For example,
Lieutenant General PR Shankar, who served as Director General of Artillery, argued in a media
commentary that post-Agniveer subunits may not have enough experienced soldiers who can be NCOs. In
contrast, our columnist today, Lt Gen JS Sandhu, who served in Kashmir, argues that if unit commanders
can manage soldiers’ morale, the new recruitment scheme won’t affect the army’s fighting spirit. Some of
these answers will only be known years down the line. But GoI should keep a close look on whether and
how the change is affecting ground realities.
The other issue is, of course, what will thousands of young Indians released annually after 4 years of army
service do? The partly contributory severance package for Agniveers is just over Rs. 11 lakh. This can be
a good cushion to start life in the civvy street – provided the civvy street is offering plenty of employment.
But the plain fact is that the world’s fifth-largest and fastest-growing economy is doing an awful job of
creating jobs. That labour force participation is itself falling shows how the young view the labour market.
Massive and better-targeted welfare schemes have probably put a lid on what would otherwise be
noticeable social unrest. But this is an unsustainable model. Agniveers are another reminder to GoI.

9. Direction: Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow:
In what can only be described as a truly historic feat for Indian badminton, Team India shuttlers put up a
spectacular performance to not only reach the final of the Thomas Cup but also defeat Indonesia – the
most decorated team in men’s badminton. Indonesia, which has won this tournament 14 times, had history
and reputation on its side. But that failed to overwhelm Lakshya Sen, Chirag Shetty, Satwiksairaj
Rankireddy, and Kidambi Srikanth, who took India over the finishing line with an incredible 3-0 score.
The victory underscores the depth of Indian badminton today. While the sport has had outstanding
individual performers for some time now, putting together a world-class team reflects the true health of the
game in the country. In fact, all the players who played the final ranked among the top 15 in the world.
Things truly started changing for Indian badminton after Saina Nehwal won the Commonwealth Games
gold in 2010. Subsequently, her bronze at the 2012 London Olympics took the popularity of the sport to a
whole new level. With PV Sindhu’s successes on the international stage following shortly, Indian
badminton had arrived.
That said, over the years two hubs have emerged for Indian badminton – the Pullela Gopichand Academy
in Hyderabad and the Prakash Padukone Badminton Academy in Bengaluru. While these two are
responsible for producing and nurturing almost all of India’s top shuttlers, for continued success quality
training infrastructure needs to be broad and based throughout the country. Second, badminton’s success
is underpinned by the efforts of former stalwarts of the game like Gopichand – who is the current national
coach – Padukone and Vimal Kumar. They have been handpicking, guiding and transforming players into
champions. A similar approach in other sports where former icons of the game are given a free hand and
supported to nurture talent is worth trying out. Given India’s size and youth bulge, there’s no reason why
we can’t emerge as a sporting powerhouse.
The primary purpose of the passage is to ____________.

A. urge other sports to follow the badminton model B. congratulate team India for winning the Thomas
to succeed at the international level Cup
C. win over the hearts of Indians with a moving piece D. figure out what went right for India at the Thomas
of speech on India’s victory in the Thomas Cup Cup

Passage summary: The passage, written against the backdrop of the Russia-Ukraine war,
states how the war has pushed up oil, food and commodity prices. India will need a solid fiscal
policy to drive economic growth in the near future.
Number of words: 403
Genre: World affairs/Economy
Type of question: Main idea/Theme-based
This question is based on the overall context of the passage and to answer that, we first need
to understand the main idea of the passage.
Throughout the passage, the author has talked about the Russia-Ukraine war and its
economic fallout. But it has also been suggested that the long-drawn war will not impact India
as much as it did previously and that fiscal policy will be needed to boost economic growth.
The aforementioned idea is best captured in option C.
Options A, B, and E contradict the passage.
Option D is not a suggestion made by the author.
Hence, the correct answer is option C.
2. E
Sol.
Type of question: Direct/Fact based question
Refer to these lines:
‘The world, however, has not been spared the economic fallout of war. It’s working its way into
the global economy through three channels. It has pushed up fuel prices. Separately, other
commodity prices and logistics costs have escalated. Finally, the uncertainty caused by war is
weakening global demand.’
Except for option E, the rest of the options are correct in the context.
Hence, the correct answer is option E.
3. C
Sol.
Type of question: Inference based
Refer to this line from the last paragraph of the passage:

‘Global uncertainty poses downside risks to growth. Therefore, fiscal policy has to take over
the primary role of boosting growth.’
Hence, it is clear that a strong fiscal policy will be key to India’s growth prospects. Hence,
option C is the correct answer here.
Options A, B, D, and E have been stated in the passage.
4. C
Sol.
Type of question: Direct/Fact based question
Statements I and III are clearly mentioned in the last paragraph of the passage. On the other
hand, although statement II is also mentioned in the passage, it distorts the context by stating
that the increase in revenues can allow the government to reduce oil prices.
5. D
Sol.
Passage summary: The passage talks about the recent army recruitment policy as the author
discusses various aspects related to the issue, from battle readiness to a reduced pension bill,
to more strain on the job market.
Genre: Economy
Type of question: Main idea
Here, all the answer options except option D make one key mistake: they talk about one
particular topic and do not focus on the overall theme of the passage. Option D takes into
account the government’s policy on army recruitment as a whole, and hence, it is the correct
answer.
Option A talks about the highs and lows, and hence, it is not even discussing the core aspects
of the passage.
Options B and C only talk about the government’s need to reduce defence expenditure.
Option E is about the disadvantages only. The passage has also highlighted some positives.
Hence, the correct answer is option D.
6. B
Sol.
discusses various aspects related to the issue, from battle readiness to a reduced pension bill,
Genre: Economy
Type of question: Inference question
Here, Statement I is incorrect because it is a much more extreme view than what the author is
trying to project here. While the author has mentioned that fiscally, it makes sense to apply the
government’s new army recruitment policy, we can’t infer that the policy is only sound from the
fiscal point of view. In the last few lines of the second paragraph, the author has clearly
mentioned that it will be figured out in the long run. Hence, I can’t be inferred.
Statements II can be inferred. Refer to the first paragraph on China.
Statement III has not been stated in the passage.
Hence, the correct answer is option B.
7. B
Sol.

Genre: Economy
Type of question: Specific idea question
Refer to these lines:
‘This can be a good cushion to start life in the civvy street – provided the civvy street is
offering plenty of employment. But the plain fact is that the world’s fifth-largest and
fastest-growing economy is doing an awful job of creating jobs.’ Thus, option B is the
correct answer.
The above extract eliminates options A, C, D, and E.
8. B
Sol.
The phrase ‘down the line’ means at a further, later, or unspecified point, which is the same as
option B.

Passage summary: The passage is about India’s recent success in the Thomas Cup
Badminton competition championship. The author highlights the need for other sports to follow
the badminton model in order to succeed.
Genre: Sports
Type of question: Main idea
In the final paragraph of the passage, the author has talked about India’s success in the
Thomas Cup and how it must be used as a barometer by India in order to succeed in other
sports. The author has urged other sports to follow the model of badminton, and hence, option
A is the correct answer here.
Options B and C are vaguely directed that do not justify the context wholly, whereas option D
is not mentioned anywhere in the passage.
Hence, the correct answer is option A.
10. E
Sol.
Genre: Sports
Type of question: Specific idea
Refer to these lines from the second paragraph:
‘The victory underscores the depth of Indian badminton today. While the sport has had
outstanding individual performers for some time now, putting together a world-class team
reflects the true health of the game in the country. In fact, all the players who played the final
rank among the top 15 in the world.’ Thus, options B and C are stated in the extract.
11. B
Sol.
Genre: Sports
Type of question: Specific-idea
Refer to these lines from the third paragraph:
‘While these two are responsible for producing and nurturing almost all of India’s top shuttlers,
for continued success quality training infrastructure needs to be broad based throughout the
country.’
12. C
Sol.
Genre: Sports
Type of question: Tone based
The main purpose of the author behind writing this passage is to underscore India’s success in
Thomas Cup Badminton competition while also highlighting the need to follow the badminton
model to achieve success in other sports as well. The idea is best captured in option C
because the author is trying to convince us to use the badminton model to achieve success in
other sports. Hence, option C is the correct answer.
The author has not analysed in any great detail the reasons for India’s triumph in the Thomas
Cup.
13. C
Sol.
The blank needs to be filled with a verb in the past form to complement the preceding auxiliary
'had'. Thus, the only word that can be used to fill in the blank is 'embezzled'. Besides,
embezzle means to steal money that one is responsible for or that belongs to one’s employer.
Hence, it fits in the context appropriately as well.
14. D
Sol.
Since the sentence denotes a contrasting thought, we will need a preposition to denote the
same. The only option that can do that is ‘despite’, meaning without taking any notice of or
being influenced by; not prevented by. It also fits in well within the context, and hence, it is the
correct answer.
15. A
Sol.
We need to fill in the blank with an appropriate noun that can complement the preceding noun
'silence', and maintain parallelism with it. The only word that does that is 'eeriness', meaning
the quality of being strange in a frightening and mysterious way.
16. C
Sol.
The correct answer is option C and for that, let’s look at the options closely and eliminate the
same. We do not receive money from a seller. Also, we cannot reimburse money to a seller as
it means to give back what has been given or used. Remit means to send money as a
payment to a person or place.
17. B
Sol.
The sentence is incorrect as there is a subject verb disagreement. The subject here is
‘participation’ and not the 'representatives and local administration'. So, the verb here should
be singular and not plural.
18. B
Sol.
We must use the word ‘tendencies’ instead of the word ‘tendency’. This is because various
tendencies have been mentioned after the highlighted phrase.
19. D
Sol.
Here, the opening statement would be Statement C as it introduces us to the Goa trip planned
and executed by a group of which the author was a part. Now, statement C can only be linked
with statement B because it introduces us to the opening part of the tragic moment, as
mentioned in C, which, under the context, would have been the part of the group’s excursion
towards Goa. Now that we have established the opening two statements, it is clear that option
D is the correct answer.
20. C
Sol.
Genre: Economy
Here, it is better to look for mandatory pairs and eliminate the options. 3-4 are easily the most
visible mandatory pair because 3 is hinting towards something which would have happened in
the past and 4 is describing the same event. Hence, only options C and D remain. Now, 2
logically follows 4 because it indicates the time frame that the paragraph is taking to discuss
the issue of ban on wheat exports. Hence, the correct answer is option C.
21. B
Sol.
A is clearly the opening statement here as it talks about the Bharat Gaurav train becoming the
first tourist train to cross the international border into Nepal. Now, B follows A because it talks
about the travel route of Bharat Gaurav train, which is followed by C as it talks about what the
Ramayana circuit actually is (which is nothing but a route consisting of prominent places
associated with the life of Lord Ram). So, the sequence turns out to be ABC, and thus, option
B is the correct answer here.
22. A
Sol.
Sentence C, which opens the talk about the show ‘Nirmal Pathak ki Ghar Wapsi’, should be
followed by a generic sentence because from the context of the first sentence, not much can
be said about the opening statement. Now, if we look at other statements, statement A turns
out to be the subsequent one because it tries to carry on the conversation about the show by
stating that it can bring back the nostalgia of the Doordarshan days. Now, between B and D, D
would come first because the word ‘whom’ in B would be referring to ‘older audiences' present
in statement D.
23. C
Sol.
If something lies ahead, especially something difficult or unpleasant, it is going to happen in
the future, and one will have to deal with it. The sentence is in the past tense. Also, the past
tense of 'lie' is 'lay' and not 'laid'. Therefore, 'laid' should be replaced with 'lay' to make the
sentence grammatically correct.
24. B
Sol.
The sentence implies that the subject left their village in order to achieve something in the city.
The conjunction 'so that' is used to introduce a clause of purpose. Hence, 'then' should be
replaced with 'that' to make the sentence grammatically correct.
25. C
Sol.
The sentence implies that the subject inherited a lot of money and property when his mother
died. The preposition 'through' means 'from the beginning to the end of a period of time'. It
should be replaced with 'after' meaning 'in the time following (an event or another period of
time)'.
26. E
Sol.
Both parts II and III need correction. Part II mentions AI to be similar to human intelligence,
which is not true, it is mentioned further in the passage that the two are quite different. It also
uses the preposition ‘from’, while the preposition that follows 'similar' should be ‘to’. Part III is
incorrect because of the use of gerund 'displaying'. It should be 'displayed' instead.
27. D
Sol.
Part I is contradictory because it considers Adobe Photoshop to be free as well as an
expensive software whereas both are antonyms of one another. The correct phrase will
mention something like ‘easily accessible’. Part III needs correction as well, as it uses the
wrong relative pronoun while referring to the software. (It uses ‘who’ which is predominantly
reserved for people or living beings). The correct phrasing will be 'which features an integrated
game engine as well'. As options I and III need correction, option D is the required answer.
28. C
Sol.
Leonine is the adjective to describe a lion–or of resembling a lion. Similarly, bovine means
relating to or affecting cattle.
Hence, option C is the correct answer.

29. B
Sol.
The pair of words in the question are synonymous. Amiable and amicable mean friendly.
Similarly, inimical means hostile.
Hence, option B is the correct answer.
30. B
Sol.
In the question pair, the word ‘cocoon’ means ‘envelope in a protective or comforting way’, and
the word ‘swathe’ means ‘wrap in several layers of fabric’. So, they are synonyms.
A: The word ‘temperate’ means ‘relating to or denoting a region or climate characterised by

mild temperatures’, and the word ‘intense’ means ‘of extreme force, degree, or strength’. They

B: The word ‘laconic’ means ‘(of a person, speech, or style of writing) using very few words’,

36. A
Sol.
We use the phrase 'with respect to' to say what something relates to, with reference to. It is
used as a substitute for 'In respect of'. Thus, 'with' is appropriate to use here.
37. B
Sol. Let the total number of notes with John be x.
So, the number of notes of $5 = 0.3x
Number of notes of $10 = 40% of (x 0.3x) = 0.28x

Number of notes of $20 = 50% of (x 0.3x 0.28x) = 0.21x
Number of notes of $100 = x 0.3x 0.28x 0.21x = 0.21x
According to the question,
0.21x 20 0.3x 5 = 270
4.2x 1.5x = 270
x = 100
Thus, the number of $10 notes with John = 0.28x = 28

So, initial selling price price of the car = (100 + 20)% of x = $1.2x
New profit percentage = (100 - 60)% of 20% = 12%
New selling price = (100 + 12)% of $x = $1.12x
1.2x - 1.12x = 500
0.08x = 500
x = 6250
Hence, option D is the correct answer.

2 - 15x = 0
x(2x - 15) = 0
So, x = 0 or x =
Now, the value of x cannot be equal to 0. Thus, x = = 7.5

Let total work = LCM of 7.5 and 15 = 15 units
Work done by pipe A in 1 hour = 1 unit. Work done by pipe B in 1 hour = 2 units.
So, work done by pipes A and B in the first two hours = (1 + 2) = 3 units.
Thus, there will be five such pairs of the working of pipes A and B for 1 hour each.
Total time = 5 2 = 10 hours

Sol. Let the speed of the train be x km/hr.
So, the speed of bus = (x + 12) km/hr
- =4
576x + 576 12 - 576x = 4 + 48x
4 + 48x - 576 12 = 0
+ 12x - 1728 = 0
+ 48x - 36x - 1728 = 0

x = - 48 or x = 36
Since x cannot be negative, so x = 36
Thus, the average speed of the bus = (x + 12) = 48 km/hr
60. B
Sol. It is given that
Or
As a and b are integers, 112 - 8b must be divisible by 3.
So, the possible values of b are 2, 5, 8, 11, and 14. And corresponding values of a are 32, 24, 16, 8, and
0.
Thus, there are four solutions because a = 0 is not possible.

61. E
Sol. Working at half the efficiency, Shyam takes 96 days to complete.
So, working at his usual efficiency, he will take 48 days to complete the work.
Ram will take 24 days to complete the work as he is twice as efficient as Shyam.
Let the total work be 48 units. So, the rate of work of Ram and Shyam is 1 and 2, respectively.
So, the number of days required to complete the work days.

N = LCM (6, 8, 9) x + 5 and also given that N = 11y + 6,
where x and y are multiplying factors.

So,
On trial and error, the value of x will be 2, 13, 24 ….. go on.
The corresponding values of y will be 13, 85, 157……
So, the largest three-digit number will be at x =13 and y = 85

Sol. Let the length of train B be 5x metres.
So, the length of train A = (100 + 40)% of 5x = 7x metres
Let speed of train A be a km/hr and that of train B be b km/hr
= 24
7x + 200 = 24a …. (i)
Also, = 20
5x + 200 = 20b …. (ii)
And, = 24
12x = 24(a + b)
x = 2a + 2b …. (iii)
Substituting this value of x in equation (i), we get
14a + 14b + 200 = 24a
14b + 200 = 10a …. (iv)
Substituting the value of x in equation (ii), we get
10a + 10b + 200 = 20b
10a + 200 = 10b

14b + 200 + 200 = 10b
4b + 400 = 0
b = - 100

67. D
Sol.
Statement I: Seven boys and 10 men can complete the same work in 20 days.
From the above statement, we cannot find the individual efficiency of a boy and a man.
Thus, statement I alone is not sufficient to answer the question.
Statement II: The work done by a boy in a day is 50% less than that done by a woman and
the work done by a woman in a day is 20% more than that done by a man.
Let the work done by a man in a day be 10x units.
So, the work done by a woman in a day = 12x units
Work done by a boy in a day = 6x units
From the above data, we cannot find the number of days taken by 9 boys to complete the
work.
Thus, statement II alone is not sufficient to answer the question.
Combining statement I and II together,

Total work = 20 (7 6x + 10 10x) = 2840x units
The work done by 9 boys in a day = 6x 9 = 54x units
Thus, we can find the required answer by using the statements I and II together.
68. D
Sol.
Statement I: Pipe A alone can fill the swimming pool in 40 minutes while pipe B alone can
empty the swimming pool in 60 minutes.
From the above statement, we cannot find the capacity of the swimming pool.
Thus, statement I alone is not sufficient to answer the question.
Statement II: Pipe A can fill 20% more water in a minute than pipe C.
Pipe C fills 80 litres of water in a minute.
Pipe A will fill (100 + 20)% of 80 = 96 litres of water in a minute
From the above statement, we cannot find the capacity of the swimming pool.
Thus, statement II alone is not sufficient to answer the question.
Combining statement I and II together,
Amount of water filled by pipe A in 40 minutes = 96 40 = 3840 litres
Thus, the capacity of the swimming pool is 3840 litres.
So, both the statements together are required to answer the question.

Sol. If there is a need to keep a huge liquid base, especially for emerging market economies such
as India, it can definitely be because extreme cases like the COVID-19 pandemic or global
financial crisis could dent forward economic momentum. And since Statement I is a strong
reason behind keeping liquid reserves, it can be a conclusion.
Statement II cannot be a conclusion because we usually keep a buffer to fight off worst-case
scenarios, and here, there is no such thing. Hence, option A is the correct answer.

Sol. Since the Reserve Bank of India has lifted the ban on X Card for acquiring new customers,
with immediate effect, the company would enter the debit/credit market with renewed vigour,
thereby increasing competition in the market. Hence, Statement I can definitely be a
conclusion.
On the other hand, II is not a conclusion because of the term ‘financial instruments’. A financial
instrument is not a credit/debit card; it is things such as government bonds, cash, and equity.

Sol. Here, I is a valid assumption because it is the only statement relevant to the main statement.
Since Qatar Airways has recorded high profit in the last one year and is preparing for a record
surge in travellers, it is assuming that there will be a huge increase in the number of travellers.
Hence, I is an assumption.
On the other hand, II is not an assumption because we can’t say that Qatar Airways is looking
to expand to other territories.
III is not an assumption because we are merely speculating about the rise in the number of
travellers in case of other flight carriers. And since we can’t say anything about them
conclusively, III is not an assumption.
91. A
Sol. The main idea behind making the comparison with Pakistan is to make us aware of the poor
condition of road transportation in India. The suggestion in the paper that road conditions in
India must be improved shows that the assumption is that improving road conditions will
improve speed.
The second sentence that even Pakistan fared better shows that Pakistan was not expected to
do better than India in terms of average speed. So, the assumption is that India is expected to
do better. Hence, option A is the right answer here.
III is not a valid assumption because we have no idea about Pakistan’s road conditions. All we
know about is that Pakistan’s road transport speed is better. But whether it is dependent on
better quality of roads is merely speculation.
Hence, option A is the right answer.

- I is correct as this might motivate the students to come to school.
- II is incorrect as it involves threatening, which is extreme.
101. C
Sol. First number = 2
Second number = 2 × 2 – 1 = 3
Third number = 3 × 3 – 1 = 8
Fourth number = 8 × 5 – 1 = 39
Fifth number = 39 × 7 – 1 = 272

Sixth number = 272 × 11 – 1 = 2991
Seventh number = 2991 × 13 – 1 = 38882

So, W > X and X paid the lowest price, while W paid the second lowest price.
2) V paid a price more than W but not as much as Y.

Clearly, Z paid the third highest amount.
103. D
Sol. Since the supermoon is an astronomical spectacle, there are high chances it would attract
large crowds at places where there is a clear view of the sky because people would want to
witness it. Hence, I can be concluded. Similarly, Statement II can also be concluded because
many astronomy aficionados would line up outside of lunar observatories to witness the thing.
Hence, option C is the correct answer. Also, III can be concluded because it is clearly
mentioned in the statement that ‘From Frankfurt to New York to Istanbul to Beijing’, the
spectacle would be observed, which clearly concludes that there would be a number of other
cities which could witness the event as well. Hence, option D is correct.

The association’s plan is to maintain 100 best dancers on the basis of their reviews to
maintain consistently high standards.
A is not an assumption.
B: It is not the total number of applications on which the association’s pna or decision is
based. Hence, B is eliminated.
C: This is not the association’s assumption; in fact, the association’s assumption is the
opposite since they are choosing this method to choose the best dancers.
D is the assumption since the association plans to maintain the high standards of performance
by choosing the 100 best dancers each year. It assumes that every year, the ‘best’ 100 remain
of the same standard.
Hence, D is the assumption.

Sol.
The argument says that the present excessive use of fertilisers is resulting in water pollution.
To check this, farmers should practice crop rotation. But government aid will not be given if the

rotation and, hence, against efforts to check water pollution.
Hence, C is the correct answer.
