VERBAL ABILITY
DIRECTIONS for questions 1 to 3: The passage given below is followed by a set of three
questions. Choose the most appropriate answer to each question.
I was recently shocked to read that several city councils in the UK are getting ready to expunge everyday Latin
words from the English lexicon. Along with via and etc would be banished viz and i.e., not to speak of inter
alia and bona fide. There goes away that exotic literary advantage. It was only recently that Amrita, my 10year-old, fighting against a tide of domestic protestations voted against romantic French and prevalent Spanish
and chose Latin as her second language in middle school. I had cheered her and actually promised to help out
with the homework, given that three out of five words in English are of Latin origin. Blame this vicarious decision
on my formative years but growing up in Mumbai, Latin was never an option in my school, as our national
language Hindi was strictly enforced. Shiv Sainiks had decreed that local Marathi was de rigueur for all citizens of
the city. I therefore ended up needing to speak three additional languages, not to forget Tamil, my mother
tongue. Languages rarely heard have always fascinated me. I always had this burning desire to speak them,
particularly when my travel stints exposed me to the strangest of tongues. Language CDs didnt help me a whole
lot. The thing about languages is that though you may be gifted with the art of penmanship, spoken word skills
are mostly inherited or acquired after birth. I have always packed my dog-eared phrasebook along with my
toothbrush and shaving cream for my travels. These havent helped me much either, often eliciting that
controlled giggle or even outright laughter at my stuttered attempts. Printed words wont tell you that Thai is a
tonal language with grammatical minefields or Mandarin and Cantonese have a lilt to them flowing like Indian
ink applied with a Chinese brush. These city councils argue that they needed to create a language devoid of such
linguistic minefields. However, there could be far-reaching consequences in the professional community. Just
like abstruse scientific papers and brain-twisting mathematical theorems, legal documents are made to sound
pompous with Latin words sprinkled generously all over those reams of printed matter. With Latin slowly oozing
out of our English dictionary our lawyers will be hard-pressed to retain their mystifying status quo.
1) Which of the following is a suitable title for the passage?
(a) My Fascination with Languages
(b) Languages Seldom Spoken
(c) Should English be pruned?
(d) Latin: The Legal Language
2) According to the passage, why did the author choose to help his daughter?
(a) The author felt that his daughters choice of language was relevant in light of its close links with English.
(b) The author felt that his daughters choice of language was justified given that he had never been allowed to
study Latin.
(c) The author felt that his daughters choice of language was practical and much better than
romantic French and prevalent Spanish.
(d) The author felt that his daughters choice of language was relevant since it would give her an exotic literary
advantage.
3) According to the passage, why have councils in the UK decided to remove Latin from the English lexicon?
(a) They feel that the linguistic hurdles in Latin make it difficult to gain mastery over it.
(b) They want to create a language that does not have the linguistic problems associated with the use of Latin.
(c) They find themselves unable to overcome the linguistic hurdles provided by Latin.

which has now become an obsolete language.

DIRECTIONS for questions 22 to 26: The passage given below is followed by a set of questions. Choose the most
appropriate answer to each question.
Eye surgeon Virendar Sangwan has perfected a procedure so cutting-edge that most who have tried it have
failed. In an operating theatre in the central Indian city of Hyderabad, he
surgically implants corneas grown in a petri dish from stem cells by his colleague Geeta Vemuganti in patients
with damaged eyes. Together they perform about 80 corneal regeneration procedures a year, making the L.V.
Prasad Eye Institute, where they work, one
of the most prolific facilities in the world using stem cells to regenerate tissues of any kind.
The Sangwan-Vemuganti team uses stem cells found in the tissues of living adults, not ones derived from
embryos. Teams all over the world are working with adult stem cells, trying to coax them to regrow cells in
hearts, brains, livers and other organs, but progress is slow. Besides corneas, scientists have had some success
regrowing skin cells and bone tissues, but those procedures remain experimental. A number of programs
around the world have tried to perfect this treatment, but they have had bad outcomes, says University of
Cincinnati eye surgeon and stem cell specialist Edward Holland. It is impressive what they are doing at Prasad.
In addition to the Hyderabad project, only Hollands program and a half-dozen others in the world conduct
operations using corneas grown from stem cells. The treatment uses stem cells harvested from the limbus,
located where the cornea touches the white of the eye. For those with damaged corneas, these cells called
limbic and conjunctiva - are harvested from a patients good eye, if he has one, or from a close relative. They
are placed in a petri dish and chemically tweaked to grow into the lower layer of a cornea, called epithelium. It is
then transplanted into the eye of the patient where in most cases it takes hold and grows. In 56% of the cases at
the Prasad Institute, patient could still see clearly after 40 months later. Indians are well known for reverse
Coffee with SIBM 2014| An Aspirant Relations Team Initiative

engineering, meaning they can deduce how drugs are made in order to produce generic versions. But in this
case, Sangwan and Vemuganti, a pathologist, developed the technique on their own from reading papers and
running experiments in the lab. Sangwan says he had a number of patients with burned eyes who could not
helped with standard corneal transplants from cadavers, so he persuaded Vemuganti to try growing corneas in
her lab. You know how to grow cells, and I know how to do the transplant surgery. Vemuganti recalls him
saying. Why dont we work together? She smiles and shakes her head. I had no clue if this was going to
work. Vemugantis major innovation was developing a platform on which to grow corneas. First she designed a
circular glass tube about the size of a stack of coins. Then she overlaid the glass with tissue from a human
placenta which is a good surface to grow corneas on. She says. After that she placed stem cells in four places
around a circle, added a growth medium, and watched the
corneas begin to grow. Commercial interests among stem cell companies for the procedure has been scant
because of the perceived small volume of patients, says venture capitalist Antoun Nabhan of Bay Capital, who
sits on the board of Cellerant, a leading stem cell company in San Carlos. Calif. But corneal stem cell treatment
may have wider applications, say ophthalmologist Ivan Schwab of Unversity of California at Davis. These stem
cells are similar to others in the body that make mucous membrane, he say. These techniques
of growing stem cells might one day be used to treat mucous membrane tissue in the sinuses, bladder, and
other organs.

(a) Patients requiring any corneal transplant
(b) Patients with damaged corneas
(c) Patients with damaged eyes of any kind
(d) None of the above
24) The world recognises this Indian innovation because Indian scientists are normally known
(a) To be good at analysing and finding out a method of how an existing drug is made.
(b) As they are good researchers of drugs.
(c) As they are good at carrying out experiments to create generic drugs.
(d) As they are able to carry out drug trials on large samples.
25) The pathologist, Vemuganti, started growing cornea in a petri dish
(a) By following procedures published in research papers
(b) By inventing a totally new procedure

flasehood, selfishness, and violence are the law of life.

forces.
