Que. 20 Directions: Study the following information carefully and answer the questions that follow:
There is a matrix of 4*4. The rows are represented as %, $, # and @ from the first to the fourth in
the same order and the columns are represented as 1 to 4 from the first to the fourth in the same order.
Following operations are to be performed in the given order to obtain the whole matrix.
1. One diagonal of matrix is IBPS and the other diagonal is 2019 in the same order. Both have their first
element in the first Column and 4th column respectively.
2. The immediate neighbor of any alphabet in the same row is the alphabetical position of that number.
3. The remaining places are to be filled by taking the difference between the two numbers surrounding that
place in the same row.
In the obtained matrix, the value of the sum of all digits in the second column would be less than that of the
third column.
The compiler of a PC will respond to the input by calculating the value of the string as per the following
conditions.
1. If there are equal number of even and odd numbers in the string, then value of the string will be the
absolute difference between all the even numbers and all the odd numbers.
2. If there are equal number of alphabets and numbers in the string, then the value of string will be the
absolute difference between the alphabetical position of all the alphabets and all the numbers.
3. If there is only one even number in the string, then the value of string will be the addition of all the
numbers in that string.
4. If there is a vowel in the string, then value of the string will be the alphabetical position of that vowel.
5. If none of the above mentioned conditions follow, then the value of the string will be obtained by
subtracting the lowest number from the highest number in that string.
Note:
1. The value of an input is obtained by adding the values of all the strings and then the digits in that value is
added up to the point where it becomes a single digit number and then it is taken as an input.
2. If only a single string is given, then the digits in that value is added upto the point where it becomes a
single digit number and then it is taken as input.
3. If the value of an input is a prime number, then the program will be executed.
If the value of an input is an even number, then program will not be executed.
If the value of an input is both even and prime number, then program will be executed but it will show an
error.
If the value of an input is other than the above mentioned values, then PC will hang.
Let us assume a matrix:
1 2 3 4
% 1 2 C 4
$ J 6 7 8
# 9 10 T 12
@ O 14 15 16

AA = $3 @2 %1 #2, BB = @1 $3 %2
$3 denotes value in second row and column 3 which will be equal to 7.
Therefore AA = 7 14 1 10
So, this is satisfying condition 1. Hence the sum = (14 + 10) – (7 + 1) = 16
BB = O 7 2
So, this is satisfying condition 4. Thus, frequency = alphabetical position of O = 15
The values of AA and BB are added, and the final frequency is 16 + 15 = 31 which is a two digit number, So
again adding them 3 + 1 = 4, which is a non-prime even number so the program will not be executed.
Consider the following four strings for all questions:
AA = $2 #1 @3 #3
BB = @1 %4 @3 %3
CC = $4 @2 #4 %1
DD = %4 @2 @4 #2
What is the value of input if only signal AA and BB is taken into account?
1. 2
2. 8
3. 7
4. 1
5. 9
Que. 21 What is the correct option if only signal CC is taken into account?
1. The program will be executed.
2. The program will not be executed.
3. The program will be executed but it will show an error.
4. The PC will hang..
5. Cannot be determined
Que. 22 What is the correct option if both signals AA and DD is taken as input?
1. The program will be executed.
2. The program will not be executed.
3. The program will be executed but it will show an error.
4. The PC will hang.
5. Cannot be determined
Que. 23 It is given that signal BB is incorrect and the program was executed but showed an error, then what
could be the correct string for it?
1. @1 %4 @3 %3
2. #3 @4 @2 %3
3. @1 %4 @3 $4
4. #4 $3 $2 #4
Que. 24 What will be the value of string if all four signals given is taken as input?
1. 2
2. 5
3. 7
4. 1
5. 8

Que. 121 Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below.
Corruption in every stage of the tropical timber trade fuels deforestation, which adversely affects
forest communities, leads to biodiversity loss and jeopardises the environment. A new report by international
watchdog Global Witness says that developing countries supplying timber to the European Union (EU)
witness high levels of corruption. In Cambodia for instance, corruption is deep-rooted due to the existing
nexus between logging companies, politicians and government officials.
According to the United Nations Environmental Programme and INTERPOL, illegal logging tops the ranking
of environmental crimes with an estimated value of US $ 50-152 billion annually. In terms of economic
value, “governments lose US $ 10 to 15 billion annually in lost revenue” due to illegal logging, Robert
Simpson, a Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) expert, says. He blames illegal logging for
undermining sustainable forest management and reducing forests’ capacity to provide environmental
services.
Illegal timber trade also gives rise to conflicts between local communities and logging companies, a
campaigner at Global Witness told Down To Earth earlier. A June 2015 Global Witness report blamed illegal
and uncontrolled logging for alleged human rights violations. Simpson adds that indigenous communities
lose access rights to forests. Besides conflicts, illegal timber trade leads to biodiversity loss. Citing the
example of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), the 2015 report points out that logging is responsible
for degrading the country’s rainforests. The report adds, “…it is illegal industrial logging that is acting as a
major driver of forest degradation and deforestation”.
In many timber-producing countries, the government is the largest landowner and awards logging
concessions and licences through public tendering processes. Such contracts concentrate power in the hands
of those who award them and are highly lucrative to the companies that win
them.____________________________________________. To tackle corruption, the EU should raise the
issue of corruption with producer countries, re-shape policies and strengthen the enforcement of EU timber
regulation. This is imperative for conserving forests, biodiversity and climate. Last year, the Food and
Agriculture Organization welcomed an agreement by Indonesia and the EU to issue the world’s first Forest
Law Enforcement, Governance and Trade (FLEGT) timber licence as a major achievement in the fight
against illegal logging. The FLEGT license can accompany shipments of timber exported from Indonesia to
EU countries to certify that the timber has been harvested, transported, processed and traded according to the
Indonesian law. The is part of the EU’s FLEGT Action Plan adopted in 2003 to promote measures to tackle
illegal timber trade and contribute to sustainable forest management, which features in the 2030 Sustainable
Development Goals.
The FLEGT license is part of the EU’s FLEGT Action Plan to promote
1. peace between local communities and logging companies

Que. 143 Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below.
The COVID-19 crisis has hit the tourism economy hard, with unprecedented effects on jobs and
businesses. Tourism was one of the first sectors to be deeply impacted by the pandemic, as measures
introduced to contain the virus led to a near-complete cessation of tourism activities around the world. The
sector also risks being among one of the last to recover, with the ongoing travel restrictions and the global
recession. This has consequences beyond the tourism economy, with the many other sectors that support, and
are supported by, tourism also significantly impacted.
The unprecedented shock to the tourism economy is being compounded by the evolving sanitary
situation. While positive news on vaccines has boosted the hopes of tourism businesses and travellers alike,
challenges remain. ___________________________________________________________________. This
will further damage business and traveller confidence, and business survival prospects. Despite the proven
resilience of the tourism economy to previous shocks, the sheer scale and combined economic and health
nature of this crisis means that the road to recovery is highly uncertain. While there has been some
resumption of international tourism activity, this remains very limited. Domestic tourism has restarted in
many countries, but can only partially compensate for the loss of inbound tourism.
OECD now estimates international tourism will fall by around 80% in 2021. No meaningful recovery in
international tourism flows is foreseen until well into 2021, and is likely to take some years. This is in line
with recent projections by other organisations. Latest UN World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) estimates
point to a 70% decline year-on-year in international tourist arrivals in the first eight months of the year, with
the loss in export revenues from international tourism eight times that recorded in 2009 amid the global
financial crisis. UNWTO now foresees a decline in international arrivals close to 70%, with recovery to pre-
crisis levels not expected before 2023.
Domestic tourism is providing a much-needed boost to help sustain many tourism destinations and
businesses and will continue to be a key driver of recovery in the short to medium term. There has been some
pick up in domestic tourism activities since the middle of the year, due in part to displacement effects of
international travel restrictions. However, this has been hindered as many countries face further waves of the
virus, and domestic tourism is expected to end the year significantly down on pre-COVID levels. Spain and
the United Kingdom, for example, are forecasting a decrease in domestic tourism by 45-50% in 2020. Also,
not all destinations or businesses have benefited, due to ongoing restrictions on movement within countries
and altered demand patterns and behaviours.
This is having very tangible economic and social consequences for many people, places and businesses, and
the wider economy. Tourism generates foreign exchange, supports jobs and businesses, drives regional
development and underpins local communities. Before the pandemic, the sector directly contributed 4.4% of
GDP, 6.9% of employment, and 21.5% of service exports in OECD countries, on average (and 6.5% of global
exports according to the World Trade Organisation3). However, these shares are much higher for several
OECD countries, where tourism is a major driver of economic activities, such as France (7.4% of GDP),
Greece (6.8%), Iceland (8.6%), Mexico (8.7%), Portugal (8.0%) and Spain (11.8%). The indirect impacts of
tourism are also significant, exacerbating the size of the shock on national and local economies.
According to the passage, which was the first sector to be deeply impacted?
1. Tourism
2. Education
3. Medical
4. Agriculture
5. Robotics
Que. 144 Fill the blank in the following sentence with the most meaningful sentence as per the context of

time.
4. Vaccine roll out will improve the current scenario and tourism sector will boom.
5. Vaccine roll out is uncertain, and it puts the economy in danger.

much percent in 2021?
1. 80%
2. 70%
3. 60%
4. 50%

4. These shares are much higher for several OECD countries.
5. None of these
