Verbal Reasoning
“Many organisations find it beneficial to employ students over the summer.
Permanent staff often wish to take their own holidays over this period.
Furthermore, it is not uncommon for companies to experience peak workloads in
the summer and so require extra staff. Summer employment also attracts
students who may return as well-qualified recruits to an organisation when they
have completed their education. Ensuring that the students learn as much as
possible about the organisation encourages interest in working on a permanent
basis. Organisations pay students on a fixed rate without the usual entitlement to
paid holidays or bonus schemes.”
Statement 1: It is possible that permanent staff who are on holiday can have their work
carried out by students.
True, false, Cannot say

Statement 2: Students in summer employment are given the same paid holiday benefit
as permanent staff.
True, false, Cannot say

Statement 3: Students are subject to the organisation’s standard disciplinary and

grievance procedures.
True, false, Cannot say

Statement 4: Some companies have more work to do in the summer when students are
available for vacation work.
True, false, Cannot say

Deductive Reasoning

Example 1
The factory manufactured a thousand soft toys in the last month and eleven hundred in
the month before that. Therefore, raising employees' salaries helped improve the
factory's productivity. Which assumption underlies the above argument?

 Two months ago, the factory made twelve hundred toys.
 Raising employees' salary always increases productivity.
 The factory used to manufacture less than a thousand soft toys a month.
 The factory produced a thousand computers last month.

sometimes small. Which statement must be true?

 Company B is looking for new employees.

 Company A and Company B are not small companies.
 Company B is a small company.
 Companies A and B are not hiring at the moment.
