Test-II: English LanguageDirections (Q. 51-65): Read the following passage

carefully and answer the questions given below it. Certainwords are given in bold to help you locate them whileanswering some of the questions.

In any lively democracy the press and the politician havea healthy mutual need. When politicians, political parties andgovernments want to be heard they go in search of the press,among other vital ingredients. With India’s highly politicisedreading public and a cynical middle class, unless there is apolitical twist given to a speech, an iftar party or a meeting onthe front page, the newspaper would fold up — or at least sothe media believes. If a political party is particularly idle it willuse a front-page twist to raise a storm in Parliament sometimeswithout bothering to ascertain the facts. All this is acceptedas fair game as long as not much harm is done. However, thevery sine qua non of any story claiming to be news ratherthan views has to be the unadulterated truth. Anything shortof verified truth can only be presented as opinion, speculationor allegation. Without this, the edifice of credibility that a freepress is accorded in a democracy would crumble.

In dictatorships or controlled democracies the press mustwrite the truth as the ruling establishment wishes it to bewritten. The Big Lie comes from on high. The press can thenrightly claim that their freedom is curtailed and disclaimresponsibility for presenting the truth. However, in ademocracy in which the press has complete freedom to writeabout anything it pleases, the responsibility for presentingthe truth and nothing but the truth devolves on the media.

A journalist being human and fallible is subject to thesame laws and rights as any other citizen. There is no rightgiven to him that overrides the rights of other individualsand no law he need not bow before no matter what themotivation for his story. It is only at the time of accordingpunishment to a lawbreaker that the judge can consider thecircumstances under which the crime was committed, but ajournalist cannot quote public interest to justify breaking alaw. Even a person from a law enforcement agency has theright to drive through a red light only if he is on an authorisedmission to chase a suspected criminal.

It is also important to remember that freedom of expressionis a right given by the Constitution as much to the individualas it is to the press. The right of the press to write aboutpersons is no less than the right of those persons to givetheir version to the same public through whatever meansthere are at their disposals, including through the press. It isfor the press to respect that right as a natural corollary of itsown right. Just as a reporter is unhappy if the proprietor isunhappy, if the ruling establishment curtails the freedom of

the press, the ordinary citizen, be he the reader or the subjectmatter of a story in the media, has the right to uncurtailed andundiluted expression of his version and view of events. Ifthis two-way process did not exist and the press claimed theunilateral right to freedom of expression in the garb of pressfreedom, it would amount to the dictatorship of the press.

In the age of media trials and sensationalism it is evenmore important that those in the media who genuinely believethat democratic and civil rights take priority over profitsremember their responsibility to adhere to the truth, the lawand specified journalistic ethics.51. What makes the political leaders get closer to the media?

1) to obtain information about their adversaries2) to voice their opinion on different matters in public

52. Why is it that a political twist given to a speech, iftarparty or a meeting is published on the front page of anewspaper?1) because politics has creeped into every area of human

to information than an ordinary citizen.2) A journalist has the authority to break the law only in

matters of public interest.3) Press is not as free in a dictatorship as in a democracy.4) Freedom of expression is only meant for the press

and not for people in general.5) None of these

nature of job make it probably true.37. 1; Passage says that pharmacists are concerned with

different types of work such as production,productive processes, quality control and testingof drugs etc. And the last sentence of the passagesays that there are many job opportunities openingup.

38. 339. 5; According to the passage, more than 5000

manufacturing units are involved in making bulkdrugs.

40. 4; Job prospects are better for an individual in MNCs.It is likely MNCs are in a stronger position thanindigenous companies. Hence, the inference drawnseems false.

41. 3; All digits are alphabets (A) + No alphabet is a vowel(E) = A + E = E = No digit is a vowel. Hence,conclusion I follows.No alphabet is a vowel (E) ? conversion ? Novowel is an alphabet (E).Now, All consonants are vowels (A) + No vowel isan alphabet (E) = A + E = E = No consononant is analphabet (E) ? conversion ? No alphabet is aconsonant. Hence, conclusion II follows.Again, Some numbers are digits + All digits arealphabets = I + A = I = Some numbers are alphabets(I) + No alphabet is a vowel (E) = I + E = O = Somenumbers are not vowels. Hence, conclusion III andIV do not follow.

42. 5; All documents are files (A) + Some files are papers(I) = A + I = No conclusion. Hence, conclusion I, IIand IV do not follow. However, I and conversion ofIV make a complementary pair. Hence, either I or IVfollows. Again Some files are papers (I) + All papers

are certificates (A) = I + A = I = Some files arecertificates (I) ? conversion ? Some certificatesare files. Hence, conclusion III follows.

43. 5; All people are animals (A) + All animals are plants(A) = A + A = A = All people are plants. Hence,conclusion II follows. Now, No group is people (E)+ All people are plants (A) = E + A = O* = Someplants are not groups. Thus, conclusion I, III and IVdo not follow. However, I and III make acomplementary E-I pair. Hence, either I or III follows.

44. 5; All jobs are works (A) ? implication ? Some worksare jobs (I). Hence, conclusion I follows.Again, Some jobs are vacancies (I) ? conversion? Some vacancies are jobs (I) + All jobs are works(A) = I + A = I = Some vacancies are works (I) + Nowork is a trade (E) = I + E = O = Some vacancies arenot trades. Hence, conclusion II does not follow.Now, No work is a trade (E) ? No trade is a workAgain, All professions are trades (A) + No trade is awork (E) = A + E = E = No profession is a work.Hence, conclusion III follows. But conclusion IVdoes not follow.

45. 2; No grade is a score (E) ? conversion ? No score isa grade (E). Now, All letters are scores (A) + Noscore is a grade (E) = A + E = E = No letter is a grade(E). Hence, conclusion I does not follow. Andconclusion II does not follow from statement II.Again, All marks are grades (A) + No grade is ascore (E) = A + E + E = No mark is a score (E) + Allscores are characters (A) = E + A = O* = Somecharacters are not marks. Hence, conclusion III doesnot follow. But All letters are scores (A) + All scoresare characters (A) = A + A = A = All letters arecharacters (A) ? conversion ? Some charactersare letters (I). Hence, conclusion IV follows.

46. 3; The Government should make all necesssaryarrangements to enact firearms act. Firearms shouldnot be let free because they increase crimes in thecountry.

47. 1; If students of a college find better placement, itindicates the good quality of the institute.

49. 4; It is with prospective customers in mind thatmarketing campaigns are launched.

50. 5; The reason for such a steep hike in prices must be arise in input prices. Only choice 1 talks about such arise – increase in taxes on raw materials. However,note that the govt is still planning to review taxes.And actual prices are not increased on mereanticipation.
