Question 101. In this question, a passage is given followed by a statement. Read the passage carefully and judge the statement based on the given passage. Delhi, the capital of India and one of the largest cities in the world, is under severe stress, thanks to urbanisation, increasing population and alarming levels of pollution. Studies have proved that transportation, industrial and residential sectors are the largest polluters, and that the citizens are exposed to high levels of nitrogen oxides (NOx), ozone (O3), black carbon (BC) and particulate matter (PM). The 2015 Global Burden of Disease report attributes about 1.09 million deaths in India to PM 2.51 and identifies air pollution to be among the top 10 health risks in the country. As per the World Health Organisation, 37 Indian cities are among the world’s top 100 cities with very high levels of PM10. Ozone formation requires both oxides of nitrogen (NOx) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs), along with sunlight and warm temperature. Therefore, the ground level ozone in the city exceeds the threshold limit largely during summer months.
Statement: The ground level ozone in the city doesn't exceed the limit largely during Summer. Choose the appropriate one from the following options
A -The statement is definitely true.
B -The statement is probably true.
C -The statement is cannot be determined.
D -The statement is definitely false.

A Son
B Mother
C Wife
D Husband
Explanation:
Given that B(Female) is the mother of M & A(Siblings).
Z(Male), who is the husband of Y(Female) is the son-in-law of O. Y is the sister of A. It says M,A & Y are siblings. If Z is son-in-law of O, Y is daughter of O. As M,A& Y are siblings and given that B is their mother, Relationship between B & O is wife & Husband. Therefore, B is wife of O.
Family Diagram :
So, the answer would be option c)Wife
Question 116. In a certain code language, if MONTH is coded as TRSMY, then how is PLACE coded in that language?
A QUFJH
B QUFKH
C PTEIG
D PTEGI
Explanation:
In the word MONTH, Positions of M,O are interchanged & Positions of T,H are also interchanged. Middle letter N remains in the same position. Then the word will be OMNHT. Each letter in this word is added by 4 for it's position value in alphabets and replaced with letter in that position. For example, O is replaced with T and there are 4letters between them. (P,Q,R,S) Similar logic is used for word PLACE and code formed would be QUFJH
So, the answer would be option a)QUFJH
Question 117. Read the given information carefully and answer the questions that follow. Abi, Banu, Charu, Dev and Esha are five friends sitting in a row facing North (not necessarily in the same order). Each of them likes five different sweets namely Laddu, Burfi, Jamun, Kathli and Peda.

Which of the following statements is true with respect to the arrangement?
A Abi and the one who likes Laddu sit at the extreme ends
B Charu likes Burfi
C Dev sits between Abi and Charu
D Esha likes Kathli
Explanation:
From the Given information, We can initially say that, Banu & Charu occupy 2nd and 4th positions. Also, Given that Dev doesn't sit on any of the ends. It clearly leads to a conclusion that Dev sits in the middle and he likes peda.
From 4th Point, "The one who likes Burfi sits third to the left of the one who likes Jamun.", We can say that the person who likes Jamun sits at the right side end as he has someone who likes burfi sitting left to him/her. We can also conclude that it would be Eesha who likes Jamun as it's given that Abi doesn't like Jamun.
Given that one who likes Burfi sits third to left of one who likes Jamun, therefore, Person in 2nd position likes Burfi and it would be Charu as given that Banu likes Laddu and Banu would be in 4th Position.
So charu likes burfi
Question 118. Find the next number in the series.
14, 31, 59, 121, 239, ?
A 468
B 471
C 481
D 478
Explanation:
We can observe that given series is in below pattern,
14,14 × 2 + 3 31 × 2 − 3 59 × 2 + 3 121 × 2 − 3 239 × 2 + 3
Next number would be 239 × 2 + 3 = 481
Question 119. Read the given information carefully and answer the questions that follow. Abi, Banu, Charu, Dev and Esha are five friends sitting in a row facing North (not necessarily in the same order). All five like five different sweets namely Laddu, Burfi, Jamun, Kathli and Peda.

Who sits third to the right of Charu?
A The one who likes Burfi
B The one who likes Jamun
C The one who likes Kathli
D The one who likes Laddu
Explanation:
From the Given information, We can initially say that, Banu & Charu occupy 2nd and 4th positions. Also, Given that Dev doesn't sit on any of the ends. It clearly leads to a conclusion that Dev sits in the middle and he likes peda.
From 4th Point, "The one who likes Burfi sits third to the left of the one who likes Jamun.", We can say that the person who likes Jamun sits at the right side end as he has someone who likes burfi sitting left to him/her. We can also conclude that it would be Eesha who likes Jamun as it's given that Abi doesn't like Jamun.
Given that one who likes Burfi sits third to left of one who likes Jamun, therefore, Person in 2nd position likes Burfi and it would be Charu as given that Banu likes Laddu and Banu would be in 4th Position.
So, we can finalize all positions and sweets liked by them. so,Answer to the given question "Who sits third to the right of Charu?" would be "one who likes Jamun" from the formed figure.
