Dyslexia is a perceptual disorder often occurring in persons of normal, or even above average intelligence. The reader is unable to perceive correctly what is on a page. Letters and numbers often appear reversed: "b" seems to be "d","quite" is "quiet" and "from" is "form". The reader tends to leave out letters or words or insert words or letters that are not there. Vowel and consonant sounds may be confused. Many dyslexics are left­handed or able to write with either hand. They often confuse left and right. Learning to speak may also be delayed beyond infancy. The condition seems to be inherited. It may persist into adulthood. However, with early recognition and specialized approaches to teaching reading, most dyslexics can learn to read.

Some researchers believe that latent dyslexia may be aggravated by the way reading is taught. The modern whole­word, or look­and­say, method seems to be more of a hindrance to learning for dyslexics than it is for ordinary pupils. The phonetic method of teaching students to learn letters and sound them out appears to achieve better reading results. The problem of words that cannot be sounded out ­ such as rough, laugh or through ­ is not solved by phonetics. These words must simply be memorized. However, for children with dyslexia the problem can be compounded by the failure of parents or teachers to recognize the condition. This can easily lead to emotional problems for dyslexic children, who cannot understand their failure to keep up with their classmates.

A passage is given with 5 questions following it. Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer to each question out of the four alternatives.


The quest to find life outside the solar system got a big boost with the discovery of seven Earth-size extra-solar planets, or exoplanets, orbiting a dwarf star about 40 light years away. Unlike earlier discoveries of exoplanets, all seven planets could possibly have liquid water — a key to life as we know it on Earth — with three planets having the greatest chance. This is by far the largest collection of Earth-like planets in the habitable 'Goldilocks' zone of a star — neither too close nor too far from a star, which raises the possibility of liquid water being present on the surface. Only Earth has liquid water in the solar system. Since the dwarf star is much cooler than the Sun, the dimming of light each time a planet passes or transits before the star could be easily recorded from Earth unlike in cases when planets transit a Sun-like bright star. Since the initial discovery of three planets was made using the Chile-based Transiting Planets and Planetesimals Small Telescope, the exoplanet system is called TRAPPIST-1.

 

What is the 'Goldilocks' zone?

A) It is a mythological place about stars and planets B) That place on a planet which has lowest possibility of liquid water.
C) The correct distance of a planet from its star to have possibility of having liquid water D) That place on a planet which has the right amount of sunlight
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) The correct distance of a planet from its star to have possibility of having liquid water

Q:

Can anyone solve this in 20 seconds?

Answer

3 + 5 + 6  = 151872


3x5, 3x6, Rev of (3x5 + 3x6 - 6) 


 


5 + 5 + 6  = 253094


5x5, 5x6, Rev of (5x5 + 5x6 - 6)


 


Similarly,


9x4 = 36


9x7 = 63


So 36 + 63 = 99


From 99 - 7 =  92


Reverse of 92=29


 


Hence, 9 + 4 + 7 =  366329.
