Question : The question below consists of a set of labelled sentences. Out of the four options given, select the most logical order of the sentences to form a coherent paragraph.
P. There once was a little boy who had a very bad temper.
Q. The boy gradually began to control his temper over the next few weeks, and the number of nails he was hammering into the fence slowly decreased.
R. His father decided to hand him a bag of nails and said that every time the boy lost his temper, he had to hammer a nail into the fence.
S. On the first day, the boy hammered 37 nalis into that fence.

Option 1: QRSP

Option 2: PRSQ

Option 3: RPSQ

Option 4: QPRS

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: PRSQ


Solution : The correct option is the second option.

There is a logical progression: It starts by introducing the boy's bad temper, then explains the father's strategy to help the boy control his temper, followed by the initial consequence (37 nails hammered in), and ends with the improvement in the boy's behaviour over time.

The most logical order of the sentences to form a coherent paragraph would be:

P: There once was a little boy who had a very bad temper.

R: His father decided to hand him a bag of nails and said that every time the boy lost his temper, he had to hammer a nail into the fence.

S: On the first day, the boy hammered 37 nails into that fence.

Q: The boy gradually began to control his temper over the next few weeks, and the number of nails he was hammering into the fence slowly decreased.

So, the right order would be PRSQ.

Question : Select the most appropriate idiom for the underlined segment in the given sentence.

When he made fun of the sage, who was already infuriated, it made a bad situation worse.

Option 1: Made them at the loggerheads

Option 2: Pulled someone's legs

Option 3: Added fuel to the fire

Option 4: Budged up

Team Careers360 20th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: Added fuel to the fire


Solution : The third option is the correct answer.

The phrase "it made a bad situation worse" suggests that the action of making fun of the sage intensified or exacerbated an already negative situation. Added fuel to the fire is an idiomatic expression that precisely conveys this meaning. It implies making a situation more intense or inflammatory.

Therefore, the correct answer is: "Added fuel to the fire."

Question : Comprehension:

In the following passage, some words have been deleted. Read the passage carefully and select the most appropriate option to fill in each blank.

Unemployment arises from a variety of_____ (1). One which is always recurring and the effects of which we have had a recent example is the disorganisation of the industry resulting from a long war, this is a serious______ (2) admitting of no easy ________(3) at the best of times. Again there is unemployment which followed a marked diminution in the______ (4) of any raw product, such as cotton; fewer hands are required in the mills and the factories. We may call this the cause of bad harvests. Similar, but more serious is the effect of changes in industry due to the invention of machinery which does more work and requires________ (5) hands. Yet another cause is strike or lockout and this is more to be deplored because such a stoppage is due to a very trivial matter, perhaps the men are working half an hour longer than what their Union permits.

Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank number 5.

Option 1: fewer

Option 2: more

Option 3: many

Option 4: a lot of

Team Careers360 23rd Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: fewer


Solution : The correct choice is the first option.

In the context of the sentence, the phrase "machinery does more work and requires" indicates a reduction in the number of hands needed for the work due to the efficiency of machinery. The correct term to use is fewer, as it is the comparative form of "few", and it is used when referring to a smaller number of countable items.
