Direction for [ Question No: 10 To 10 ] :
Courage is not only the basis of virtue; it is its expression. faith, hope, charity and all the rest don't become virtues until it takes courage to exercise them. There are roughly two types of courage. the first an emotional state which urges a man to risk injury or death, is physical courage. The second, more reasoning attitude which enables him to risk coolly his career, happiness, his whole future or his judgement of what he thinks either right or worthwhile, is moral courage.
I have known many men, who had marked physical courage, but lacked moral courage. Some of them were in high places, but they failed to be great in themselves because they lacked moral courage. On the other hand I have seen men who undoubtedly possessed moral courage but were very cautious about taking physical risks. But I have never met a man with moral courage who couldn't, when it was really necessary, face a situation boldly.

In a recently held parent-teacher meeting, the teachers had very few complaints about Ravi. After all, Ravi was a hardworking and kind student. Incidentally, almost all of Ravi's friends at school were hardworking and kind too. But the teachers drew attention to Ravi's complete lack of interest in sports. The teachers believed that, along with some of his friends who showed similar disinterest in sports, Ravi needed to engage in some sports for his overall development.

Quantitative Aptitude [ Question No: 1 To 5 ] :
The measure of an angle for which the measure of the supplement is four times the measure of the complement is
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : C
The angle is 60°.
Let the angle be x. Its supplement is 180° - x and its complement is 90° - x. The supplement is four times the complement:
\[ \begin{aligned} 180 - x &= 4(90 - x) \\ 180 - x &= 360 - 4x \\ 3x &= 180, \quad x = 60 \end{aligned} \]
Check: the supplement is 120° and the complement is 30°, and 120 = 4 × 30. For 30° the ratio is 150 : 60, for 45° it is 135 : 45 = 3, and for 75° it is 105 : 15 = 7, so none of those works.
Find the odd man out. 3, 5, 11, 14, 17, 21
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : C
Every number in the list is odd except one.
\[ 3,\; 5,\; 11,\; 17,\; 21 \;\text{are odd}; \qquad 14 \;\text{is even} \]
So 14 is the odd man out. The list is deliberately salted with 21, which is not prime, to tempt the "all primes" reading - but 21 is still odd.
Two vertical poles are 200 m apart and the height of one is double that of the other. From the middle point of the line joining their feet, an observer finds the angular elevations of their tops to be complementary. Find the heights of the poles.
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : D
Let the poles be \( h \) and \( 2h \). The observer stands at the midpoint, so each pole is 100 m away.
Complementary angles mean the two elevations are \( \theta \) and \( 90^{\circ} - \theta \), and since \( \tan(90^{\circ}-\theta) = \cot\theta \), their tangents multiply to 1:
\[ \frac{h}{100} \times \frac{2h}{100} = 1 \]
\[ 2h^{2} = 10000 \quad\Longrightarrow\quad h^{2} = 5000 \quad\Longrightarrow\quad h = 50\sqrt{2} = 70.71 \text{ m} \]
\[ 2h = 141.42 \text{ m} \]
So the poles are about 70.5 m and 141 m. The identity \( \tan\theta\cot\theta = 1 \) is what makes the problem solvable without knowing either angle.
A man can row upstream 10 kmph and downstream 20 kmph. Find the man rate in still water and rate of the stream.
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : C
Please remember,
If a is rate downstream and b is rate upstream
Rate in still water = 1/2(a+b)
Rate of current = 1/2(a-b)
=> Rate in still water = 1/2(20+10) = 15 kmph
=> Rate of current = 1/2(20-10) = 5 kmph
A inlet pipe can fill a tank in 12 hours and an outlet pipe can empty the tank in 16 hours. If both the pipes are opened simultaneously, find the time taken to fill the tank.
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : D
As the inlet can fill the tank in 12 hours, in one hour it will fill 1/12th of the tank.
Similarly, the outlet pipe in one hour can empty 1/16th part of the tank.
If both are opened simultaneously, the part of the tank filled in one hour is:
1/12 - 1/16 = 1/48
Hence, the tank gets filled in 48 hours.

Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : A
Correct answer: Only conclusion I follows
If fortune goes to the brave, then venturing something - taking a risk - is what success requires, which is conclusion I. Conclusion II is a separate saying about cowards, not drawn from this one. Only I follows.

Correct Answer : D
Correct answer: apologise to the house owner and contribute to replace the glass.
The damage is yours and so is the responsibility. Owning it at once and offering to pay towards the new glass settles the matter honourably; running away or denying it would be dishonest and, in a neighbourhood, useless.

Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : C

The passage closes with the claim: I have never met a man with moral courage who couldn't, when it was really necessary, face a situation boldly. That is what the passage says moral courage guarantees; the other options promise more than it claims.

Based only on the information provided above, which one of the following statements can be logically inferred with certainty?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : D
The statement that follows with certainty is Some of Ravi's friends are hardworking and kind.
The passage says that almost all of Ravi's friends were hardworking and kind. If almost all of them are, then at least some of them are, so this statement is guaranteed.
'All of Ravi's friends' overstates 'almost all'. The passage says nothing about people who are not Ravi's friends, so the claim that none of them is hardworking and kind cannot be inferred. And only some of his friends showed a similar disinterest in sports, so 'none of Ravi's friends are interested in sports' goes beyond the information given.

Correct answer: The climate of Ranchi is better than Patna.
As written, a climate is being compared with a city. The comparison needs that of to supply the missing noun: the climate of Ranchi is better than that of Patna.
The other three are sound:
- The more I thought of it, the less I liked it - a correct double comparative.
- The teacher was angry with him - one is angry with a person.
- One should take care of one's health - one is kept throughout.
Computer Awareness [ Question No: 15 To 16 ] :
Which of these is an example of an optical storage device?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : B
Correct answer: DVD
A DVD is optical storage: data is written as microscopic pits on a reflective layer and read by a laser detecting the change in reflection. CDs and Blu-ray discs work the same way. The three storage technologies are distinguished by how the data is held. Magnetic storage - hard disks, tape - uses the orientation of magnetic domains. Optical storage uses pits read by a laser. Solid-state storage - SSDs, USB flash drives, memory cards - traps charge in floating-gate transistors with no moving parts at all. Optical media have particular strengths: they are cheap to mass-produce by stamping, immune to magnetic fields, and reasonably durable. Their weaknesses are low capacity, slow access and the need for a drive, which is why they have largely disappeared from laptops. RAM is not storage in this sense at all but volatile working memory.
Which computer program is used to run the websites?

Which one of the following is not a tributary of the River Luni?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : C
The river that is not a tributary of the Luni is the Tons.
The Luni rises near Ajmer and flows south-west to the Rann of Kutch. Its main tributaries join it from the Aravallis on the left bank: the Sukri, Bandi, Jawai, Mithri and Lilri, with the Jojari on the right bank.
The Tons is not in Rajasthan at all: it is the name of a Himalayan tributary of the Yamuna and of a tributary of the Ganga in Madhya Pradesh.
