Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow, by selecting the correct/most appropriate options :
1. Each drop represents a little bit of creation and of life itself. When the monsoon brings to northern India the first rains of summer, the parched earth opens its pores and quenches its thirst with a hiss of ecstasy. After baking in the sun for the last few months, the land looks cracked, dusty and tired. Now, almost overnight, new grass springs up, there is renewal everywhere, and the damp earth releases a fragrance sweeter than any devised by man.
2. Water brings joy to earth, grass, leaf-bud, blossom, insect, bird, animal and the pounding heart of man. Small children run out of their homes to romp naked in the rain. Buffaloes, which have spent the summer listlessly around lakes gone dry, now plunge into a heaven of muddy water. Soon the lakes and rivers will overflow with the monsoon's generosity. Trekking in the Himalayan foothills, I recently walked for kilometres without encountering habitation. I was just scolding myself for not having brought along a water-bottle, when I came across a patch of green on a rock face. I parted a curtain of tender maiden hair fern and discovered a tiny spring issuing from the rock-nectar for the thirsty traveller.
3. I stayed there for hours, watching the water descend, drop by drop, into a tiny casement in the rocks. Each drop reflected creation. That same spring, I later discovered, joined other springs to form a swift, tumbling stream, which went cascading down the hill into other streams until, in the plains, it became part of a river. And that river flowed into another mightier river that kilometres later emptied into the ocean. Be like water, taught Laotzu, philosopher and founder of Taoism. Soft and limpid, it finds its way through, over or under any obstacle. It does not quarrel; it simply moves on.

What is the number of employees in the HR department?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : A
From the first question under this direction, we found the total number of employees to be 4500.
The pie chart shows that 12% of employees are in the HR department.
Number of HR employees = 12% of 4500 = 0.12 * 4500 = 540.
The angle of elevation of a ladder leaning against a wall is 60º and the foot of the ladder is 4.6 m away from the wall. The length of the ladder is:
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : A
The ladder is the hypotenuse and the ground gap is the side adjacent to the 60° angle, so cosine is the ratio to use.
\[ \cos 60^{\circ} = \frac{\text{distance from wall}}{\text{ladder length}} \]
\[ \frac{1}{2} = \frac{4.6}{L} \quad\Longrightarrow\quad L = 2 \times 4.6 = 9.2 \text{ m} \]
Since \( \cos 60^{\circ} = \tfrac{1}{2} \), the ladder is always exactly twice the foot distance here. Reaching for \( \tan \) or \( \sin \) instead gives \( 4.6\sqrt{3} \) - the wall height, not the ladder.
Find the amount on Rs.8000 in 9 months at 20% per annum, if the interest being compounded quarterly?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : B
\[ A = P\left(1 + \frac{R}{100}\right)^{n}, \qquad \text{CI} = A - P, \qquad \text{SI} = \frac{PRn}{100} \]
Quarterly compounding at 20% per annum gives 5% per quarter, and nine months is three quarters.
\[ A = 8000 \times (1.05)^{3} = 8000 \times 1.157625 = \text{Rs. } 9261 \]
The question asks for the amount, not the interest - the Rs. 1261 on offer is the interest alone.

Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : D
Correct answer: Questions
The question asks what is always present, not what usually is. An examination tests knowledge or ability, and it does so by putting questions - so questions are what it cannot lack. A time limit is usual but not universal; some take-home and practical assessments have none. An invigilator supervises a formal written examination and is absent from an oral examination or a supervised practical. And written answers exclude the whole class of oral, practical and viva examinations, which are examinations nonetheless.
1000, 8000, 27000, 64000,….
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : B
Correct answer: 125000
Each term is a cube multiplied by a thousand: \( 1^3, 2^3, 3^3, 4^3 \) times 1000, so the next is \( 5^3 \times 1000 = \mathbf{125000} \).

Which one of the following words is most opposite in meaning to the word 'descend' (para 3) as used in the passage ?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : B
The word most opposite in meaning to 'descend' is ascend.
Descend means to move down; in 'watching the water descend, drop by drop' the water falls downward. Ascend means to move up, the exact opposite.
Flow describes the movement of water in any direction and is not an opposite. Hover means to stay in one place in the air, neither up nor down. Zoom means to move very fast. None of them reverses the direction of 'descend' as 'ascend' does.

Felicitous means well chosen and apt, from the Latin felix. Apposite is a synonym; inappropriate is the reverse.
The ____________ of the cats are sharp.
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : A
It is paws.
A paw is an animal's foot with claws. A pause is a brief stop, and the two are pronounced alike.
Computer Awareness [ Question No: 12 To 16 ] :
______ keyword is used to find the number of values in a column.
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : C
Correct answer: COUNT
COUNT returns the number of values; SUM adds them. The distinction matters because \( \text{COUNT}(column) \) counts only the non-null values, while \( \text{COUNT}(*) \) counts rows.
What is the name given to the software which can be legally compiled and often used for free?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : B
Correct answer: Public domain program
A public domain program carries no copyright restriction, so anyone may compile, use, change and redistribute it freely. Shareware is copyrighted and may be tried before purchase but must then be paid for, and firmware describes where a program is stored rather than its licence.
The function(s) of the Storage Assignment is (are)
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : D
Correct answer: all of the above
Storage assignment reserves space for every variable the source program refers to, for the temporary locations the generated code needs to hold intermediate results, and for the literals - and it must ensure the storage is aligned to whatever boundary the machine requires. All three tasks belong to that phase.
The report card and merit list forms the
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : A
Correct answer: Output data
A report card and a merit list are what emerges when the marks have been processed - the results presented for use. That makes them output; the marks entered at the start were the input, and the calculation between them was the processing.
Laser printer is a type of ?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : B
Correct answer: Non impact printing
A laser printer draws the page as a pattern of charge on a photosensitive drum, which picks up toner and transfers it to the paper, where heat fuses it. Nothing ever strikes the sheet, so it is a non-impact printer - unlike dot-matrix, daisy-wheel and line printers, where hammers or pins hit a ribbon against the paper.
General Awareness / General Knowledge (GK) [ Question No: 17 To 20 ] :

Correct Answer : D
Ammonia is lighter than air. Its molar mass is 17 g/mol against the average 29 g/mol of air.
Oxygen (32), carbon dioxide (44) and chlorine (71) are all heavier, which is why carbon dioxide can be poured to smother a flame and chlorine settles in low ground.
