Q:

Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer to each question out of the four alternatives.

 

The flora and fauna of Cubbon Park captures our attention more than anything else. But when you take time to look closely at the statue, you will marvel at its sheer grandeur. Sculpted by Sir Thomas Brock, the 11 feet high marble statue is larger than life. It brings out the personality of Queen Victoria, who had been the Monarch of Great Britain from 1837 till 1901, depicting a rather proud, stern person with pronounced features.

In 1906, the statue was unveiled in the city by George Frederick Ernest Albert, Prince of Wales and Duke of Cornwall and York, making it stand in all its glory in its 111th year. Even though there is a wealth of history to the statue, and it was made to appear imposing, the busy Bengalureans would probably refer to it as just another landmark. As the workers are busy in discussion on the instructions given to them, life continues as usual in the Park.


The Bengalureans would refer to the Queen Victoria statue as ____________.

A) wealth of history B) a landmark
C) Symbol of British rule D) Bengaluru culture
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) a landmark

Q:

(which is sold) P (for its horn) Q (the Rhinoceros is hunted by poachers) R (at high prices) S

The correct sequence should be

A) S Q P R B) Q R S P
C) R Q P S D) Q P S R
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) R Q P S

Explanation:

Since, the starting statement carries a subject; R will be the first statement. The next statement describes why are they hunted, so Q follows P, as it states that what is being done with the horns. S would be the concluding statement and thus form a coherent paragraph.

The correct formation would be, ‘The Rhinoceros is hunted by poachers for its horn which is sold at high prices.’

Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer to each question out of the four alternatives.

The instructor's rules were simple. Breathe through your mouth, not your nose; else the mask will fog up. Easier said than done; I got it wrong many a time. But once you fought habit and got the hang of it, the panoramic underwater world revealed itself to you with high-definition clarity.

Led by him, I slowly peered through the mask into what till then was crystal-clear water, shimmering in the sunlight. I saw pebbles, sand and my fluid shadow. I was in Nemo's universe. Sea cucumbers, sea anemone, clown fish, star fish, sea horses, parrot fish, butterfly fish and a bevy of colourful salt water fish swam past. A shoal of canary-yellow fish did a merry dance and another with vibrant blue fish followed it. They were oblivious to the snorkelers who struggled to take in the sight of a world so beautiful, so colourful, and resist opening their mouth wide in amazement; the tube would fall off!


The writer is describing her experience of which activity?

A) fishing B) snorkelling
C) boat ride D) long distance swimming
