A word and number arrangement machine when given an input line of words and numbers rearranges them following a particular rule in each step. The following is an illustration of input and rearrangement:
Input: 25 280 345 36 93 147 550
Step I: 550 280 345 36 93 147 25
Step II: 550 345 280 36 93 147 25
Step III: 550 345 280 147 93 36 25
This is the final arrangement and step III is the last step for this input.
Following is the step II for an input. What will be the first step for the input?
Step II: 595 438 28 142 38 65 289
A. 595 28 438 142 38 65 289

C. the government may ask all top officials to stop using computers for any government related work.
D. The government may ask all the top officials to take a back up of all the data in their computers immediately.
Answer: Option B
Solution:
The hacking of computers of a top official may raises security concerns because the top official may be dealing with such issues which need to be held under strict secrecy. Choice (a) and (c) may not take place because without computers the storage and recovery of data becomes difficult and time consuming. Choice (b) may take place, because government may first safe guard the computers of other top officials from being hacked. Loss of data is not the matter here. The problem is that the data is being accessed by unauthorised persons. Hence (d) is not a possible effect. Since there is no information that hacking is done with the knowledge of the official concerned (e) is not a possible effect. Hence, (b) is a possible cause.

“The city’s top ranker for SSC examination this year will be definitely from our school.” – Principal of a school ‘X’. Assumptions:

C. If either I or II is implicit
D. If neither I nor II is implicit

5. The number of instances where judges have made unwanted remarks in open courts against other constitutional/ statutory bodies or persons who were not before them is increasing. There is a need to bring such behaviour of judges within the purview of judicial standards.
Which of the following can be inferred/concluded from the given information?

B. Till now no one has set any standards for judges.
C. It is not desirable for the judges to pass such comments on other constitutional/ statutory bodies in their absence.
D. Freedom of expression cannot be exercised while in official capacity.
Answer: Option A
Solution:
The passage states that the behaviour of the judges such as commenting on other constitutional/ statutory bodies or persons should be brought under judicial standards. This indicates that there are certain standards already existing. Hence, (A) can be inferred from the passage. Choice (B) contradicts the information given in the passage. The first sentence in the passage states that the number of instances is increasing. This statement does not mention whether it is a good sign or not. The latter statement wants this behaviour to be brought under judicial statements. From this it is clear that the assumption involved is that such behaviour is not desirable. Hence, (C) is the assumption implicit in the passage. The passage is referring to passing particular kind of comments but it is not against every kind of comment. Hence, (D) cannot be concluded. Choice (A) is the inference.

A. The government should provide more support to the enforcement authority in bringing such people to books.
B. The government should ask the drug peddlers to not to sell drugs to high profile people.
C. The government should declare consumption of drugs as illegal.
D. The Prime Minister should call for meeting of all high profile people in the society to discuss the matter.
Answer: Option A
Solution:
The statement brings out the reasons behind the government’s failure to curtail drug menace. As the people involved are high profile people, it is possible that the efforts of the enforcement authority do not run smoothly. Choice (1) states that the government should increase its support to the enforcement authority. This would help them to perform their duty properly. Hence, (1) is proper course of action. Choice (2) is meaningless as the government does not support selling of drugs at all. Choice (3) is based on the assumption that drug abuse is not declared illegal. Hence, (3) is not a proper course of action. It is meaningless to have meeting with those who are actually involved in illegal activity to discuss about such activity. Hence, (4) is not a proper course of action. Hence, Choice (1) is proper course of action.

III. Without proper attendance, a student must not be allowed to attend the final examinations.
A. Only II follows B. I and III follow C. Only III follows D. All the three follow E. None follows
Answer: Option E
Solution: Course of action I is based on the assumption that the students are not attending the class due to lack of individual attention, hence I does not follow. For the similar reason course of action II is not proper course of action. II is not a proper course of action. Course of action III force the student to attend the class without solving the problem of not attending the classes. Hence, III does not follow. .
