Read the following passage divided into number of paragraphs carefully and answer the questions that follow it. Certain words are given in bold to
help you locate them while answering some of the questions.

Sugarcane leaves, millions of tonnes of which go waste in India every year, can be used to generate power, save diesel and produce enough heat to
run jaggery units and even burn small animals in a crematorium.
"Production of power via loose leafy biomass is a unique technology and it is believed that in gasi cation of sugarcane leaves we are the rst in the
world", report scientists from the Nimbkar Agricultural Research Institute, at Phaltan in Maharasthra.
They presented their ndings at an International conference in Switzerland in May 1999 and have also submitted them to the Department of Non-
Conventional Energy Sources. In view of the pressing need in India to identify indigenous and renewable sources of energy, NARI initiated the
project to gasify loose sugarcane leaves to generate electricity in the ten- fteen kilowatts range. Besides, producing power, the scientists have
successfully used the sugarcane leaves to generate heat for jaggery-making units and specially-designed furnaces to incinerate small dead animal
like sheep. Test on a 15 kilovolt ampere diesel genset powered by sugarcane leaves gasi er showed that 70-90 percent diesel substitution could be
achieved with a ve KW load. The NARI gasi er, which is non-polluting and safe, also produces char which is 15-28 percent of the fuel.

The char boosts the overall e ciency of the system to 80-85 percent and when mixed with a suitable binder it forms an excellent briquetting fuel for
cooking purposes. In India alone, about 430s million tonnes of crop residues are produced every year, out of which 330 million tonnes are used as
feed or fodder and the remaining 1oo million tonnes simply disposed o by burning in open elds.
"This is a colossal waste of potentially useful source of energy", says the report by the NARI director, Anil K Rajvanshi, and his colleague Rajiv Jorapur.
Most of the residues are in a loose leafy form such as sugarcane leaves, wheat husk, rise husk and sa ower straw. The residues usually have high
amounts of ash and are, therefore, di cult to gasify. In their studies, the NARI scientists used sugarcane leaves that have been chopped into one-to-
ve cm long pieces and sun dried.

A. only coal
B. char
C. agriculture residues
D. only sugarcane leaves
E. None of these.

project to gasify loose sugarcane leaves to generate electricity in the ten- fteen kilowatts range. Besides, producing power, the scientists have
successfully used the sugarcane leaves to generate heat for jaggery-making units and specially-designed furnaces to incinerate small dead animal
like sheep. Test on a 15 kilovolt ampere diesel genset powered by sugarcane leaves gasi er showed that 70-90 percent diesel substitution could be
achieved with a ve KW load. The NARI gasi er, which is non-polluting and safe, also produces char which is 15-28 percent of the fuel.
The char boosts the overall e ciency of the system to 80-85 percent and when mixed with a suitable binder it forms an excellent briquetting fuel for
cooking purposes. In India alone, about 430s million tonnes of crop residues are produced every year, out of which 330 million tonnes are used as
feed or fodder and the remaining 1oo million tonnes simply disposed o by burning in open elds.
"This is a colossal waste of potentially useful source of energy", says the report by the NARI director, Anil K Rajvanshi, and his colleague Rajiv Jorapur.
Most of the residues are in a loose leafy form such as sugarcane leaves, wheat husk, rise husk and sa ower straw. The residues usually have high
amounts of ash and are, therefore, di cult to gasify. In their studies, the NARI scientists used sugarcane leaves that have been chopped into one-to-
ve cm long pieces and sun dried.

Producing power from burning sugarcane leaves can be listed under which of the sources of energy

A. Oil
B. Coal

Sugarcane leaves, millions of tonnes of which go waste in India every year, can be used to generate power, save diesel and produce enough heat to
run jaggery units and even burn small animals in a crematorium.
"Production of power via loose leafy biomass is a unique technology and it is believed that in gasi cation of sugarcane leaves we are the rst in the
world", report scientists from the Nimbkar Agricultural Research Institute, at Phaltan in Maharasthra.
They presented their ndings at an International conference in Switzerland in May 1999 and have also submitted them to the Department of Non-
Conventional Energy Sources. In view of the pressing need in India to identify indigenous and renewable sources of energy, NARI initiated the
project to gasify loose sugarcane leaves to generate electricity in the ten- fteen kilowatts range. Besides, producing power, the scientists have
successfully used the sugarcane leaves to generate heat for jaggery-making units and specially-designed furnaces to incinerate small dead animal

Which of following is not an advantage of production of power via gasi cation of agricultural residue in the developing countries?

A. a 70-90 percent diesel substitution rate can be achieved with a ve KW load

B. the indigenous gasi er is non-polluting and safe

Solution
Read the sentence carefully, it can be well veri ed that the given sentence is grammatically incorrect as there is an error in the highlighted part of
the sentence which needs to be replaced by a correct and meaningful expression. Among the three options, the rst and the third expressions
provide a contextual meaning to the sentence. They both make sure that the sentence follows the correct grammar structure and the intended
meaning of the sentence remains intact. However, the second expression is not be tting to the sentence as the phrasal verb “ put up” cannot be
used in this case. The verb “ put up” means stay temporarily in accommodation other than one's own home. While the phrasal verb “ put in” means
to spend a particular amount of time doing something, or to make a particular amount of e ort in order to do something. Hence option (b) is the

C. Both (II) and (III) are correct
D. All are correct
E. No correction required
Your Answer: Not Attempted

Correct Answer: D. All are correct <br>

Solution
All the above expressions can be used to replace the existing phrase to make the sentence grammatically correct and logically meaningful. It is to be
noted that the expression “ preside over by one of the representative” is incorrect as it doesn’t follow the correct grammar structure. It should be
replaced by “ presided over by one of the representatives” to make the sentence grammatically correct. The noun or a pronoun used after the
phrase “ one of the” is always in the plural form (as we are talking of one person/place/thing out of many). The phrasal verb “ preside over” means to
be in a position of power while important changes or events are happening. Thus, all the given expressions give the similar meaning to the
sentence. Hence option (e) is the correct choice.
