Accepted Answer

The pattern for the first three options is based on the alphabetical position of the letters. For NPKR, N(14)+2=P(16), P(16)-2=N(14), K(11)+2=M(13), R(18)-2=P(16). The pattern is +2, -2, +2, -2. For TVQX, T(20)+2=V(22), V(22)-2=T(20), Q(17)+2=S(19), X(24)-2=V(22). The pattern is +2, -2, +2, -2. For BDYF, B(2)+2=D(4), D(4)-2=B(2), Y(25)+2=A(1), F(6)-2=D(4). The pattern is +2, -2, +2, -2. For XZTB, X(24)+2=Z(26), Z(26)-2=X(24), T(20)+2=V(22), B(2)-2=Z(26). The pattern is +2, -2, +2, -2. So, all options follow the same pattern.

Question 14

वह सही aवकÒप चुनÂ जो `दए गए शÍदÎ को उस þम मÂ दशाµता है eजस þम मÂ वे अंेजी शÍदकोश मÂ आते हÅ।
1. Turban
2. Terminator
3. Twister
4. Temptation
5. Terrorism

Accepted Answer

To arrange the words in dictionary order, compare them letter by letter. All words start with 'T'. The second letters are 'u', 'e', 'w', 'e', 'e'. 'e' comes before 'u' and 'w'. Among words starting with 'Te', compare the third letter. 'm' comes before 'r' and 's'. So, Temptation (4) comes first. Then compare Terminator (2) and Terrorism (5). 'r' comes before 's', so Terminator (2) then Terrorism (5). Finally, compare Turban (1) and Twister (3). 'u' comes before 'w', so Turban (1) then Twister (3). The correct order is 4, 2, 5, 1, 3.

Question 15

नीचे चार वणµ-समूह `दए गए हÅ eजनमÂ से तीन aकसी संदभµ मÂ एक समान हÅ और उनमÂ से एक असंगत है। उस
असंगत वणµ-समूह का चयन करÂ।

Accepted Answer

Analyze the positional values of the letters in each group. In DHSP, D(4)+H(8)=12, S(19)+P(16)=35. In TXCZ, T(20)+X(24)=44, C(3)+Z(26)=29. In NRJG, N(14)+R(18)=32, J(10)+G(7)=17. In FJQN, F(6)+J(10)=16, Q(17)+N(14)=31. The pattern is that the sum of the first two letters is an even number, and the sum of the last two letters is an odd number. Option 3 (NRJG) is the odd one out because the sum of its last two letters (J+G = 17) is odd, but the sum of the first two letters (N+R = 32) is even, which follows the pattern. Let's re-evaluate. The pattern is that the sum of the first two letters is an even number, and the sum of the last two letters is an odd number. Let's check again: DHSP (4+8=12, 19+16=35) - Even, Odd. TXCZ (20+24=44, 3+26=29) - Even, Odd. NRJG (14+18=32, 10+7=17) - Even, Odd. FJQN (6+10=16, 17+14=31) - Even, Odd. This pattern holds for all. Let's look for another pattern. The difference between the first two letters: D(4) H(8) -> +4. T(20) X(24) -> +4. N(14) R(18) -> +4. F(6) J(10) -> +4. This is consistent. The difference between the last two letters: S(19) P(16) -> -3. C(3) Z(26) -> -3 (C is 29, Z is 26). J(10) G(7) -> -3. Q(17) N(14) -> -3. This is also consistent. Let's look at the difference between the second and third letters. H(8) S(19) -> +11. X(24) C(3) -> +5 (X to Z is 2, Z to C is 3, so 2+3=5). R(18) J(10) -> -8. J(10) Q(17) -> +7. This is where the inconsistency lies. Option 3 (NRJG) has a difference of -8 between the second and third letters, while others have positive differences.

Question 16

वह aवकÒप चुनÂ जो तीसरे शÍद से उसी कार संबंcधत है, eजस कार ¥सरा शÍद पहले शÍद से संबंcधत है।
अहंकार : aवनता : : aनराशा : ?

Accepted Answer

The relationship between 'अहंकार' (ego/pride) and 'aवन ता' (humility) is that they are antonyms. Following the same pattern, the antonym of 'aनराशा' (despair/hopelessness) is 'आशा' (hope).
