Q:

In the following items, each passage consists of six sentences. The first and the sixth sentence are given in the beginning as S1 and S6. The middle four sentences in each have been removed and jumbled up. These are labeled P, Q, R and S. You are required to find out the proper sequence of the four sentences and mark your response accordingly on the Answer Sheet.

S1 :One of the many young scientists who chose to throw in their lot with Rutherford was an Oxford physical chemist, Frederick Soddy.
S6:We now know that Gamma rays are a particularly fierce form of X-rays.
P:His association with Rutherford lasted only two years, but that was long enough to change the whole face of physics.
Q:He was just 23.
R:They found that thorium changed into a new element, thorium X, and in the process gave off what was apparently a gas and at the same time a third type of ray, which they named after the Greek letter ‘Gamma’.
S:When he teamed up with Rutherford,they investigated thorium which, as Marie Curie had shown, was radioactive.

The proper sequence should be 

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

Explanation:

The starting statement talked about the young scientist Frederick Soddy. So the next statement would be talking about his contribution with Rutherford and how long the association lasted. So, the continuing statement would be P. So, P being the first statement eliminates all other options. Thus, the correct sequence is PQSR.

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


Crude mineral oil comes out of the earth as a thick brown or black liquid with a strong smell. It is a complex mixture of many different substances, each with its own individual qualities. Most of them are combinations of hydrogen and carbon in varying proportions. Such hydrocarbons are also found in other forms such as bitumen, asphalt and natural gas. Mineral oil originates from the carcasses of tiny animals and from plants that live in the sea. Over million of years, these dead creatures form large deposits under sea­bed and ocean currents cover them with a blanket of sand and silt. As this material hardens, it becomes sedimentary rock and effectively shuts out the oxygen, thus preventing the complete decomposition of the marine deposits underneath. The layers of sedimentary rocks become thicker, and heavier. Their pressure produces heat, which transforms the tiny carcasses into crude oil in a process that is still going on today.


How does crude oil come out of the earth ?

A) Thick brown or black liquid with mild smell B) Thick red brown liquid with strong smell
C) Mixture of different colours D) Thick brown or black liquid with a strong smell
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Thick brown or black liquid with a strong smell
