It consists of a long series of tricky picture characters, ideograms, which symbolize ideas and objects derived from Japanese life and culture. In ancient times the writing was practised as an skill from, studied and guarded by selected scholars. It is beautiful, hard to learn, and represents the discipline of scholarship and the delightful dedication of Japanese writers to this day. Japanese children learn to write their languages all the time they are in school, but very few of them are able to complete the task before they leave. Yet some literacy scholars are persuaded that no one system is more difficult to learn to read and write than any other. Whether or not this is the case, to learn to write always involves practice with a tool which has to be brought under control so that the writer can concentrate on putting together the message rather than on the creation of the sign. 151. State which of the following statements is true. 1] A long series of picture-characters go to make the Japanese script 152. To grasp the evolution of the Japanese picture-character script, we have to study 153. Very few students complete learning the Japanese script before leaving school for 154. If there is a message in the passage, it is 155. What is the challenge posed by the system of picture-signs? Passage-2 I do not appreciate of forbiddance by law. According to me, it is a worthless attempt at a self-arrogated virtue. Wine is as old as gods and it has come down to us through ages and scriptures as the supreme soothe for the human agony. It is our legacy of an age when gods were mortal and men were divine, and though wine has been accursed as an hateful evil since its first sip by man, he has not stopped drinking at its bubbling fountain of vice and forgetfulness. A nation that needs legislation to maintain the virtue of its people is really unfortunate. Saints have preached great sermons on the immoral of drinking but this Christian scriptures of the saints has always remained a bad sermon in the world of sinners. It is good for the saints to preach but stupid for the state to enforce that preaching, for what is enforced by law ceases to be moral. A virtue is a virtue only when it is acquired through self-realisation, not when is is pushed on the lives of the people. Every new law creates a new group of law-breakers and one more sin is added to the sum-total of human crimes. As Goldsmith says that virtue which requires, to be ever guarded is scarcely worth, the sentinel. 156. When the writer speaks of ‘self-arrogated virtue’, who has arrogated virtue in his view? 157. No virtue remains a virtue unless 158. The possible flaw in the author’s logic is that it 159. It is stupid, according to the writer, to enforce the saints’ preaching, because 160.

Passage1
A Company manufactures chairs. In 1994 its installed capacity was 3 lacs. Now it doubled in 1998 and remained the same in 1999. Through 1995-1997 it was 2/3 the capacity of 1998. Capacity utilization is inversely proportional to capacity. In all years except 1994 capacity utilization was below 100% though production increased steadily over the years. In 1994 it was 110%, 1995-85%, 1996-90%, 1997-91% and 1998-76%. In 1999 it was the same as 1996 levels.
1996 was a boom year in which the company sold all that it produced in that year plus the inventory of the last 2 years (assume opening inventory to be zero in 1994). The company has been facing heavy competition and market share by value has been declining from 25% in 1994-95, it was 60% of that in 1998-99. 1996 & 1997 shares were equal to the average share of these 6 years. The company spends 4.33% of its sales revenue every year on advertising.

Passage-3
The candidates in a Meeting must ask themselves questions such as these:
Why are we gathered here? What do we are supposed to do? At the end of the meeting , what should we have attained? Truthful answers to these questions should go to clearly fix the aim of the meeting. The manner the aim is percieved by the group will to a large extent determine the effectiveness of the meeting. Next, identifying members who need to attend to achieve the defined purpose is equally crucial. Frequently people who have no role whatsoever are asked to join in a meeting to give the appearance of a ‘full room’. This could spell disaster since other participants who are determined to attain something as the meeting, may feel less sincerely tending to give out their best contribution. Besides, such unwanted invitees waste their time as well as others, demoralising the letter. Further, a clear and well as others, demoralising the letter. Further, a clear and well thought of agenda must be adopted so that the path to goal achievement would become visible sooner. Constructing a good agenda involves all the aspects of the issue under consideration in a thematic manner. If the differing stands of any groups are known in advance, the agenda must be drawn to accommodate these, so that everyone gets an opportunity to speak out his opinion. Roles need to be well-defined at the commencement of the meting. A facilitator must be designated specifically to guide the discussions, encourage participation, match and space differing view-points. The responsibilities of time management, generating creative options, also must be designated, according to the purpose of the meeting to facilitate the accomplishment of its goal.
152. The effectiveness of a Meeting depends on
the number of people who attend it.
the way the candidates perceive its purpose.
the time at which it starts.
all of the above.
153. Undesired invitees to a meeting will
dilute the seriousness of the meeting.
waste the time of other participants and their own.
demoralise more seriously inclined candidates.
all of the above.
154. A well-set agenda helps
the candidates to see the path to the goal clearly and quickly.
to clarify the role of candidate
to accommodate the differing stands of some groups.
[1] and [3]
155. A facilitator at a Meeting guides discussions, and encourages participation with a view to

Passage- 4
Let’s try to be clear as to what religion isn’t. Firstly, it isn’t morality. It isn’t being good or doing good. Many atheists have been exceptionally virtuous people, and many genuinely religious people have been exceptionally weaked. This does not mean that religion isn’t concerned about our behaviour. Of course it is: in fact, it adds its own severer penalties to those which nature and society impose upon the offender. More serious still, bad behaviour- even ordinary, respectable self-seeking – upsets a religious man’s relationship with the Divine, and is apt to leave him weak and lonely and miserable. Nevertheless, religion isn’t matter of how we act outwardly but rather of the inner attitude from which our behaviour springs. For instance, Ram and Sheela can do precisely the same thing in the same way (such as giving their lives to save a drowning man) yet the inside story is quite different. Sheela acts out of a sense of social duty or humanitarian compassion, whereas Ram may act from a motive which means nothing to Sheela – from a love for God which is necessarily love for all God’s creatures, or even identification with them. Ram feels he is that drowning man.
156. A man who is religious but bad in behaviour
pretends to do good at times in order to earn God’s forgiveness.
thinks always of evil while talking of doing good.
upsets his relationship with his Maker.
preaches good behaviour to others.
157. Which of the following statements is false?
Penalties imposed by religion are more severe than those by nature or society.
When a man feels week, lonely or miserable he has necessarily indulged in bad behaviour.
Religion does not mean being good or doing good.
Some religious minded people are exceptionally wicked.
158. In the example of Ram and Sheela, the message that the writer conveys is that
noble acts need not stem from social or humanitarian motives.
we act selflessly, as from social or humanitarian motives, as from our inner attitude to love God and his creatures.
love of God and his creatures is nobler than the love of one’s fellow-beings.
love of one’s fellow-beings is same as the love of God.
159. In the author’s perspective, bad behaviour must include behaviour which is
rude
ordinary
unthinking
irresponsible
160. The writer says that a truly religious man is one who behaves
after consulting his conscience.
according to his inner attitude to doing good.
keeping in mind how others will view his behaviour.
according to his ideas of heaven and hell.
Passage- 5
The most formidable animal in the forests, that grew around the Mediterranean eight thousand years ago was the great reindeer. It stood six foot high at the shoulders and weighed about a ton. Apart from eye-witness account we know their dimensions from their fossilised bones and, more importantly, their appearance from the superb portraits of them painted by prehistoric man, particularly in the cave of Lascaux in Central France. It is possible that the act of painting played a part in the rituals designed to bring success in hunting and to ensure the continued fertility of the creatures on which people depended for food. Opposed to this is the view that at the time the paintings were made, the game was so abundant that magic was hardly required to find it. Whatever the differing views about the reindeers’ role in the ritual, it is clear that by 8000 BC at the eastern end of the Mediterranean Sea, the reindeer had dominated the minds of the men who held it great respect. In Catal Huyuk in Central turkey, one of the earliest big towns to have developed around 6400 years age, the excavator found in several shrines reindeer’s heads modelled in clay protruding from the walls. It is not certain that the people of Catal Huyuk offered the reindeer for sacrifice but their domestication led to the reduction of reindeers’ size, both in body and in horns. But it is Memphis, capital of ancient Egypt around 2000BC that the reindeer commanded the highest respect, taking its place among other important deities in all Egypt.

165. All of the following are true, except
Memphis was the capital of ancient Egypt.
domestication of the reindeer by the people of Catal Huyuk affected its size.
in the forests around the Mediterranean sea the reindeer was 6 foot high at the shoulders.
The size of the prehistoric reindeer can gauged from stone inscriptions.

61. S.I = 60,000 * 10 /100
= Rs. 6000
Rent received = 1500 * 12
= 18000
Therefore debt cleared in one year = 18000 – 6000
=12000
Therefore in 5 years.
62. 800 – 600 = 200
n = 6 months. = 1 /2 year
r = 100 I /Pn
= 100 * 15.50/ 200 * 1/2
= 1550 / 100
= 15.5%
63. A = P ( 1 + r/ 1002 ( 1 + r /100)
= 2400 ( 1+ 5 /1002 ( 1 + 2 1/2/100)
= Rs. 2712.15
Therefore C. I. = 2712.15 -150; 2400
= Rs. 312.15
64. Perimeter of square = 4a = 4 * 45
=180 m
Length of fence = 10 * 180
=1800m. with 10 lines of wire.
Therefore cost of wire = 1.50 * 1800
= Rs. 2700
65. External volume = l * b * h
= 10 * 6 * 4
= 240 cm3
Internal dimensions = ( 10 -2); ( 6- 2); ( 4- 2)
= 8 , 4 , 2 cm.
Internal volume = 8 * 4 * 2
= 64 cm3
Therefore volume of cube = 240 – 64
= 176 cm3
66. Let radii –> 2x and 3x
Let height –> 5y and 3y
V1 /V 2= ( 22 /7 ) ( 2x ) 2 ( 5 y ) / ( 22 /7 ) ( 3x ) 2 ( 3y )
= 20 / 27
67. Diameter of a roller = 60 cm
r = 30 cm = 0.30 m
Height of roller = 1.00 m
Curved surface area = 2 ( 22 / 7 ) rh
= 2 * ( 22 / 7 ) * 0.30 * 1
= 1.32 / 7
= 0.88
Area covered by roller = 500 * 0.88
= 88 * 5
= 440 cm2
Therefore cost of levelling = 0.50 * 440
=5 * 44
= 220
68. Since a+b+c = 0
a+b = -c
(a+b2=(-c2)
a2+2ab+b2=c2
a2+b2-c2= -2ab
(a2+b2+c2) 2=(-2ab) 2
or
a4+b4+c4+2a2b2-2b2c2-2c
2a2=4a2b2
or
a4+b4+c4=2a2b2+2b2c2+2c2a2
or
=2(a2b2+b2c2+c2a2)
a4+b4+c4/a2b2+b2c2+c2a2
= 2
69. Let x be the total value of the property.
x = x/2+x/4+1/5x+10000
= (10+5+4)x/20+10000
= 19x/20+10000
= 20*10000
= 200000
70. m/n = 2/3
3m = 2n
now, 3m+5n/6m-n = 2n+5n/4n-n = 7n/3n = 7/3
71. a+b = 27
5a+11b = 195
solving simultaneously we have,
a = 17 b = 10
72. 40% of 5/6 = 40/100*5/6 = 1/3
73. 3 leaps of the dog = 4 leaps of the hare.
1 leap of the dog = 4/3 leaps of the hare.
4 leaps of the dog = 16/3 leaps of the hare.
Speed of the dog : Speed of the hare
16: 15
74. 9 days earlier mean that the work should be completed in (42-9) = 33 days.
No. of Men = 42*55/33 = 70
Hence the no. of extra men = 70-55
=15 men
75. Total cost of the electronic buzzer = Rs.215+Rs.25 = Rs.240
Selling Price = Rs.300
Profit% = 60/240*100 = 25%
76. 7500*20%=1500
No of valid votes=6000
45% of 6000=2700
Hence[1]
77. At the speed of 60 kmph, aunt will reach nashik in 4 hours.
The distance between mumbai and nashik is 240 kms.
If 120 km are to be covered in 3 hours then aunt should travel at the uniform speed of
120/3 = 40kmph
78. If x and y are the ages of Nitya and Nitya’s aunt,
x+y = 63
y-x = 4(x-4)
we have Nitya’s age = 15 years
her aunt’s age = 48 years
79. First watch ticks after 95/90 seconds.
second watch after 323/315 seconds.
LCM = 19*5*17/45 seconds.
No. of times they will tick in first 3600 seconds = 3600/(19*5*17)/45
Once they have ticked together in the begining , 50 in 1 hour they tick 100+1 = 101 times
80. If area = S, Sides = sqrt(S)
If side is doubled i.e. 2sqrt(S)
area = {2sqrt(S)}2

81. Let a and b be the numbers where b is the bigger number.
b =3/2a
a-b = 2400(given)
3/2a2= 2400
a2= 1600
a = 40
82. 6 M = 8W, 2W = 3B, 4B = 5G
1 G = Rs. 50 a day.
Now, 1B = 5/4G 1 W = 3/2 * 5/4G
1 M= 8/6* 3/2* 5/4G = 5/2G
1 M = 5/2 * 50 = 125/-Rs.
83. The distance covered by the train in 30 seconds = 6000/3600* 30 metres
= 500 metres.
Length of the Bridge = 500 – 150
= 350m.
84. If we assume that the sum = Rs. 100
Then, 1st rate of interest = 100*100/100*5 = 20
2nd rate of interest = 200*100/100*12 = 16 2/3
76n1=5, x1= 42.2 n2 = 4, x2 = 35.5
x12 = n1×1+ n2×2 / n1+n2

88. A takes 6 hours to complete a work.
He can complete 1/6th of the work in one hour.(taking complete work as 1.)
B takes 8 hours to complete it.
He can complete 1/8th of the work in one hour.
Together, A and B can complete,
1/6+1/8 = 14/48 = 7/24 of the work.
Hour Work
1 7/24
? 24/24

Hence, [1]
89. In one hour, C can complete 1/12th of the work.
In two hours, he can complete 1/12*2 = 2/12th of the work.
A and B start work simultaneously,
together work completed by A and B,
1/6+1/8 = 14/48 work = 7/24 work.
In 2 hours they complete 7/24*2 = 7/12 work
Total work done by A,B,C = 7/12+2/12 = 9/12
Total work to be completed = 12/12 or 1
Remaining work = 3/12
Hour work done by A
1 1/6
? 3/12
3/12*6 = 1.5 hours
Hence[2]
90./4, *7
Hence[1]
91. In 1 hour C can empty 1/8th of tank
In 1 hour amount of water filled in the tank = A+B-C
= 1/6+1/10-1/8
68/480 = 17/120
Hour Water filled in tank
1 17/120
? 120/120
= 120/17 = 7.05 hours
92. Let the present ages of Ram and Shyam be R and S resp.
3R-2S = 10 — I
4S-5R = 10 — II
15R-10S = 50
-15R+12S = 30
2S = 80
S = 40
R = 30
Hence,[1]
93. Let their present ages be A and B.
3A-B = 100 — I
2A-B = 50 — II
3A-B = 100
-2A-B = 50
A = 50
B = 50
Sum of their ages = A+B
=100
Hence[2]
94. Let their present ages be X and Y.
X+Y = 105 –I
1.5X-2Y = 0 –II
X = 60
Y = 45
Hence[4]
95. M D H L
old 10 20 5 20

=(a2+4a+8)(a2-4a+8)
=(a2+8)2-(4a)2
=a2+64
Hence[3]
97. x = 10*2 = 20 days
100 men would require 20 days from 46 days
46+20 = 66 days
But we want to complete the work in 56 days.
Hence[1]
98. Exam 1 = 30/50*100 = 60%
Exam 2 = 40/50*100 = 80%
Increase in percent =20%

total selling price= 110+90 = 200
Hence[3]
103. Horse 1- C.P S.P.
x 100
? 120
S.P. = C.P.(100+profit%/100)
x = 83.33
Horse 2- C.P S.P.
y 100
? 80
y = 125
Total cost price = cost price of Horse1+cost price of Horse2
= 125 + 83.33 = 208.33
Total S.P.= 100+100 = 200
loss = 8.33
% of loss = 4%
Hence[2]
104. 3 years – 2 times
6 years – 4 times
9 years – 6 times
12 years – 8 times
105. In 60 min – box is full.
In 59 min – box is half filled.
In 58 min – box is 1/4 filled.

106. A = 100(1+10/100)
= 100(110/100*110/100)
= 121
107 . Income = Rs.10/-
20%*50 = 10
capital gain = 55-45 = 10
gain = 10+10 = 20
% gain = 20/45*100 = 44.45%
108. Suppose goods cost him Rs.1/kg, then he sells goods costing Rs. 0.95 for Rs.1/-
gain = 1-0.95 = 0.05
% gain = 0.05/0.95*100 = 500/95 = 5%
Hence[1]
109. Let r be the rate of interest.
600*2*r/100 + 150*4*r/100 = 90
1200r/100 + 600r/100 = 90
r = 5
Hence[2]
110. p = Rs.455, n = 4months = 1/3 year, rate = 5%
Amount of Rs.100 = (455*1/3*5)/100 = 107.58
455 ?
107.58 100
= 423
q = Rs.450, n = 2months = 1/6 year, rate = 5%
Amount of Rs.100 = (450*1/6*5)/100 = 103.75
450 ?
103.75 100
= 434
Sum to be repaid to p = 434-423 = Rs.11
Hence [3]
111. The total cost of the new projects is 125+150+235=Rs510crores
Hence [2]
112. Hotel Centaur has the lowest cost per room
Hence [1]
113. The average number of rooms to be completed in the 2 years
=(250+350+450)/2
=525
Hence[1]
