PASSAGE: In the game of cricket, any side with a pair of bowlers of complementing
superior qualities prove invincible. The current generation would know Bhuvi,
Bumrah or Starc-Cummins pairs better than their own parents. So, let me dissect a
pair that ruled the cricketing world during the fifties and early sixties. Brian Statham
and Fred Trueman of England proved to be a lethal combination that every batsman
wanted to avoid playing. Stantham was a bowler of immaculate accuracy, nagging
length and lyrical run-up. Oxymoronically, his virtues were the basis for his
misfortunes. Knowing that he would bowl in a manner that’s unplayable, batsmen
were more smug in defending his balls than when playing an erratic bowler.

Trueman nicknamed as Fiery had a long delivery stride and made no bones about
his intentions to test batsman’s physical and mental strength. The ball would flash
past the bat in moments of incredibility with the batsman thanking his Maker, if the
ball missed his limbs and occasionally the stumps.

1. Which one of the following sentences has an appropriate bold part that can
be replaced with lethal?
a. The series of never-ending bubbles rejoiced the children to any end
b. The never-say-die team won the tournament for the tenth time.
c. “Mount vesuvius“ eruption proved to be completely ruinous to pompeii
d. The life-saving drug administered to the patient brought him back to his
elements
Answer: C

2. Any team with two bowlers sharing the required traits is:
a. Arrogant to its opponents
b. vulnerable to choke
c. hard to defeat
d. insignificant in its contribution.
Answer: C

3. Oxymoron is a special language device, where


a. A tough idea is simplified by bringing a simple parallel to it
b. Two contrasting elements are placed side by side reinforcing an idea
c. A brilliant object issued in place of a dull entrance
d. An abstract entity is compared to an exact ent emphasising
similarity/difference
Answer: B

Cloze passage:
Digital twin in automotive industry presents an opportunity to pair virtual and
physical worlds leveraging different technologies such as IoT, big data analytics, and
simulation techniques to re-engineer critical processes as below.

Vehicle development: Integrates data across the product lifecycle to enable data-
driven vehicle concept, informed design through rapid assessment of change
impacts and early detection of issues, and accurate and accelerated design
verification.

Vehicle manufacturing: Factory’s digital twin in manufacturing enables real time


data gathering from machine sensors, facilitating flexible cell manufacturing, IoT-
driven maintenance strategies, and leveraging beacon data to ensure workers’
safety.

Vehicle sales and service: Captures real-time field insights on driver preferences,
product features’ uptake, vehicle performance, and service history to create an
interactive user experience on the sales floor and enable proactive and predictive
after-sales service.

that corresponds to increase in x, when y is kep a constant?
a. 85
b. 135
c. 35
d. 50

5. Ram Speaks truth 40% of the time and Laxman speaks truth 60% of the time.
Percentage of cases Ram and Laxman are likely to contradict each other in stating
the same fact is________:
Answer: 52%

6. Dimensional analysis plays an important and useful role in physics. Mass is


denoted by M, length by L and time by T. So, momentum of a particle, which is a
product of its mass and velocity has a dimension of MLT(velocity is distance/time
which is length/time). In a given physical education, the left hand side and right hand
side must have the same dimensions.

Kinematic viscosity (k) of a fluid is a measure of its resistive flow under gravity’s
influence. It’s given by the equation.
k=n/d where
n is dynamic viscosity; its dimension is Force Time / Area
d is density (mass/volume)
What’s the dimension of kinematic viscosity?
a. L^-2T^-2
b. L^-2T
c. LT^-2
d. L^2T^-1
Answer: L^2T^-1

7. In function P(x,y) - 85x-(50y+150000).What value indicates the increase in P that


corresponds to an increase in x, when y is kept constant?
a. 85
b. 135
c. 24
d. 50
Ans: 85

8. Uma has 50 red and 50 blue balls. She has two bowls with her. She has to
distribute the balls in these two bowls in such a way that none of the bowls are left
empty. If one were to choose one of the two bowls at random and them randomly
draw a ball from it, the probability of the ball being red is maximized. After this
distribution, there will be a total of ______ balls in the bowl with a larger number of
balls.
Answer: 99

{
Static String greeting () {return “Hello”;}
String name() {return “Bheem”;}
}
Public class Test
{
Public static void main {String[]args)
{
Super s=new Sub();
System.outprintln(s.greeting()+”,”+s.name();
}
}
