The small Texas school that I went to had a tradition carried out every year during the eighth grade
graduation: a beautiful gold and green jacket (the school colours) was awarded to the student who had
maintained the grade for eight years.
The scholarship jacket — a beautiful gold and green jacket had a big gold S on the left front side and your
name written in gold letters on the pocket.
My oldest sister, Rosie, had won the jacket a few years back, and I fully expected to also. I had been a
straight 'A' student since the first grade and in the eighth grade had looked forward very much to owning
that jacket.
My father was a farm labourer who couldn't earn enough money to feed eight children, so when I was six I
was given to my grandparents to raise. We couldn't participate in sports at school because there were
registration fees, uniform costs, and trips out of town; so, even though our family was quite agile and
athletic there would never be a school sports jacket for us. This one, the scholarship jacket, was our only
chance.
Another hour of sweating in basketball was coming up and I was walking up to the gym. Then I
remembered my P.E. shorts and I had to walk all the way back and get them. I was almost back at my
classroom door when I heard voices raised in anger as if in some sort of argument.
I recognised the voices: Mr. Schmidt, my history teacher, and Mr. Boone, my math teacher, seemed to be
arguing about me. I heard them say 'Martha' and I couldn't believe it. "Martha has a straight A-plus
average and you know it." That was Mr. Schmidt and he sounded very angry. "I refuse to do it! I don't care
who Joann's father is, her grades don't even begin to compare to Martha's," he continued. My heart sank.
The narrator says, "I looked forward very much to owning that jacket," because:
A. she wanted to prove to her teachers that she was
B. she had been an A grade student for 8 years
good
C. the jacket had the school name on it D. it was a beautiful jacket
97. Complete the following sentence.

99. The narrator's 'heart sank'. She was worried because:
A. Mr. Boone, the math teacher was arguing in her B. they were both arguing about her performance in
favour sports

not good defend her though she was the best student
The school honoured the best student in eighth grade with:

A. a green jacket with the name in green B. a golden jacket with an S in green
C. a green jacket with a gold pocket D. a gold and green jacket with a gold S
Solutions
1. C
Sol. The pattern is:
Likewise,
Hence, option C is the correct answer.

2. B
Sol. Logic: Here the set of letters ‘kbdfgt’ is repeating. Thus the combination that will complete the series will
be: d, t, b, g, f, g
Complete series: kb d fg t/ k b df g t/ kbd f gt/ kbdf g t
Hence, option B is the correct answer.

3. C
Likewise,

4. D
Sol. The correct mirror image is as shown below:
Hence, option D is the correct answer.

5. C
Sol. The least possible Venn-diagram is:
Conclusions:
I. Some stools are frames – It is a definite case, hence true.
II. Some stools are chairs - It is a definite case, hence true.
Thus, both the conclusions I and II follow.


6. C
Sol. Here the three given dice has common face ‘2’ thus the opposite faces be:
1–5–2
6–3–4
Thus ‘2’ is the opposite face of ‘4’.

7. D
Sol. Here the pattern is: the previous and the next letter to the given letter in the word is written as
per the English alphabetical order.
Similarly,

8. B
21 : 112 -> (7×3) : (16×7)
51 : 272 -> (17×3) : (16×17)
Similarly,
36 : ? -> (12×3) : (16×12) = 192

9. A
Sol. Here the logic is the letters are coded to the equivalent letters given in the question. Thus,
Hence, option A is the correct answer.

10. C
Sol. Here the pattern is: the place value of each letter is multiply by 2 if the digit of the respective
letter is single otherwise, the sum of the digits is the code for that digit.
Likewise,
Thus,

11. A
Sol. Logic: Here the middle element in the first figure is an octagon, which is further reduced to
Septagon, Hexagon, Pentagon, Quadrilateral and thus the next should be Triangle. Also the
elements around the middle element are exchanging their position in a cross manner like star
shaped element is changing its position with circle shaped element and so on. While, in the 3rd
figure all the four elements are moving in clockwise direction and, then in 4th figure they

When N is divided by 12, the remainder is same as the remainder,
Therefore, 5 × 7 × 9 = 315 will be divided by 12. (Remainders follow multiplication theorem)
315/12 = (312 + 3)/12 = 3
Therefore, the remainder will be 3.
74. B
Sol. Given:
Length of train = 540 m
Time taken to cross platform = 55 seconds
Time taken to cross man standing = 36 seconds
Speed of train = Length of train/Time taken to cross man standing
= 540/36 = 15 m/s
Total distance travelled by train is 55 seconds = 55 × 15 = 825 m
Length of platform = total distance – length of train = 825 – 540
= 285 m
75. C
Sol. Let the speed of car in covering first 100 km be x km/h.
Then speed for remaining 280 km = (x + 15) km/h
Now, as per question,
Total time taken = 11 hours
⇒
⇒ 11x2 + 165x = 1500 + 380x
⇒ 11x2 + 165x – 380x – 1500
⇒ 11x2 – 215x – 1500 = 0
⇒ 11x2 – 275x + 60x – 1500 = 0
⇒ 11x(x – 25) + 60(x – 25) = 0
⇒ (x – 25) (11x + 60) = 0
⇒ x = 25 or x = -60/11
Therefore, speed is 25 km/h
Time taken to travel 100 km part = Distance/Speed = 100/25 = 4 h
76. D
Sol. Let’s understand the meaning of the given words at first:
• Infection = an act or process of contaminate with a disease-producing substance or agent

something or someone
• Pandemic = a disease that is prevalent over a whole country or the world
• Chronic = an illness) persisting for a long time or constantly recurring
• Endemic = a disease or condition) regularly found among particular people or in a certain

area
Hence, option D the correct answer.

77. D
Sol. • The given sentence is in active voice.
• The tense of the sentence is present continuous tense.
The structures for active/passive voices are:
• Active: subject + Is/are/am + verb (ing) + object…?
• Passive: object + Is/are/am + being + verb (IIIrd from) + by + subject…?
So, with the help of the above structures, we can convert the given sentence into passive
voice: A new language is being learnt by me this year.
78. A
• The tense of the sentence is simple present tense.
• Active: Subject + verb (“s“ or “es” with singular noun) + object…
• Passive: Object + Is/are/am + verb (IIIrd form) + by + subject…
voice: Beautiful landscapes are painted by Rosy.
79. C
Sol.
The idiom See eye to eye means be in full agreement.
Example: The boss and I do not always see eye to eye.
80. B
Sol. • We need a demonstrative adjective to fill in the blank to qualify the noun “heavy box”.
• The demonstrative adjective is to work as a determiner here.
• Thus, option A can be eliminated at first as “them” is a pronoun, not an adjective.
• Now, “heavy box” refers to a single box, so the preceding determiner must be in singular
form as well.
• Following that, option C and option D are incorrect as “those” and “these” are plural
demonstrative adjectives.
• “This”, the singular adjective, fits perfectly to the meaning of the sentence.
• Thus, the blank must be filled with the adjective determiner “this”.
81. D
• Survey = look closely at or examine (someone or something)

o Example: Her green eyes surveyed him angrily.
• Ignore = refuse to take notice of or acknowledge; disregard intentionally
• Request = an act of asking politely or formally for something
• Trial = a test of the performance, qualities, or suitability of someone or something
• Examine = inspect (someone or something) thoroughly in order to determine their nature or

condition.
o Example: A doctor examined me and said I might need a caesarean.
82. D
Sol.
Option D has the incorrectly spelled word.
• The correct spelling is “Arrogance”.
• It means exaggerating or disposed to exaggerate one's own worth or importance often
by an overbearing manner.
The meaning of the other words are as follows:
• Illumination = lights used in decorating a building or other structure

• Appeal = make a serious, urgent, or heartfelt request
• Grammar = a set of actual or presumed prescriptive notions about correct use of a language
83. B
Sol. The underlined part of the sentence is grammatically incorrect. The error is related to use of
incorrect verb form in a particular tense.
As we can see:
• The sentence is in past form as the 1st verb is “was crowded”. The second verb should also
be in the past form.
• In the second part of the sentence, the subject is feeling uncomfortable, so it must be written
in the active voice.
• “Was feel” thus is incorrect.
Now look at the options:
• We do need a substitution here, so we can list out option D at the first go.
• “Am feeling” is written in present continuous tense. So, option A is incorrect.
• “Was felt” is written in the passive form of simple past tense. Thus, option C is also incorrect.
• “Was feeling” is written in the past continuous tense and is in the active voice. So, it makes
sense in the sentence.
• The correct sentence will be: The market was crowded with shoppers and I was feeling
very uncomfortable.
84. A
Sol. The coherent passage is about making a face mask.
• Statement S introduces the topic of the passage and thus it will come first as the
introductory sentence.
• Statement P will come next as it is talking about the 2 rectangular pieces mentioned in
statement S.
• Statement R will follow statement P as it is referring to the next step.
• Statement Q will follow statement P showing the final step of the process.
• Thus, the correct rearrangement will be SPRQ.
The passage after rearrangement will be: In order to make a face mask, take 2 rectangular
pieces of cotton fabric that measure about 7 inches by 9 inches. Sew the two
rectangular pieces together all the way to make a double layer. Now make three evenly
spaced pleats in the sewn rectangles. Finally sew the elastic straps to the mask along
the long edges.

85. C
Sol. The idiom Be on a high alert means to be ready for or expecting something such as danger
or an opportunity.
Example: Drivers need to be on a high alert for icy condition.
86. C
• Enliven = make someone more cheerful or animated or confident

o Example: Your visit had clearly enlivened my mother.
• Brighten = make or become more light
• Withhold = refuse to give something that is due to or is desired by another
• Dishearten = cause (someone) to lose determination or confidence

o Example: The farmer was disheartened by the damage to his crops.
• Create = bring something into existence
87. B
Sol. The sentence is given in direct speech, and we need to convert it into indirect speech. It is an
interrogative sentence.
The rules for changing such sentences into indirect speech are given below:-
• The reporting verb “said” is changed to “asked” as per the sense of the sentence.
• Inverted commas (" ") are removed.
• The reported speech is in the form of WH-Question (why), thus no conjunction is used before the
question word. The question word itself works as a conjunction.
• The reported verb is made assertive; i.e. it is kept in the order of “subject + verb”.
• As the reporting verb is in V2 form, the tense of the speech will change from the present continuous
tense to the past continuous tense. Thus, “are taking” changes to “was taking”.
• The second person pronoun (you) changes to according to the object of reporting speech (the assistant).
Thus, “you” changes to “he”.
• “This” changes to “that”.
• The sign of interrogation (?) is removed and full stop is used.
So, with the help of the above structures, we can convert the given sentence into indirect speech: Sumit
asked the assistant why he was taking a printout of that document.

88. A
Sol.
The sentence is grammatically incorrect and the error lies in option A.
• The error is related to the “use of verb”.
• Here the forms of verbs “draw” and “label” are incorrect.
• The diagrams cannot be drawn or labelled by itself. So, obviously the sentence is in passive
voice.
• The sentence contains a phrasal verb “should”.
• The structures for active/passive voices for modal verbs are:
o Active: Subject + modal verb + verb (Ist form) + object...
o Passive: Object + modal verb + be + verb (IIIrd form) + by + subject...
• See the examples for further reference:
o It can be done. [Active]

o It could have been done. [Passive]
o Your car could be sold. [Active]

o Your car could have been sold. [Passive]
• Thus, “draw and label” should be replaced with “drawn and labelled” to make the
sentence grammatically correct.
The correct sentence will be: The diagrams should be drawn and labelled neatly.
89. A
Sol. The sentence is given of direct speech, and we need to convert it into indirect speech. It is an imperative
sentence.
• The reporting verb “said” is changed to “told” as per the sense of the sentence.
• Inverted commas (" ") are removed and “to” is used before the main verb of the speech (get).
• The first person pronoun (me) will change according to the subject (mother). Thus, “me” changes to
“her”.
NOTE: “Tell” is a verb that we can use for any sense, be it a general statement or a statement including
any kind of impression (order, advice etc.) and expression (grief, happiness, anger etc.).
So, with the help of the above structures, we can convert the given sentence into indirect speech: Mother
told Ravi to get her the newspaper.
90. B
• Cloakroom = a room in a public building where outdoor clothes or luggage may be left
• Dormitory = a large building at a college or university where students live
• Observatory = a room or building housing an astronomical telescope or other scientific

equipment for the study of natural phenomena
• Mansion = a large, impressive house
Hence, option B the correct answer.
91. D
Sol. • Let’s understand the meanings of the given prepositions:
o For = indicates a purpose

o With = someone/something accompanied by another person/thing
o To = expressing motion in the direction of a particular location
o In = expressing the situation when something is inside something else
• The sentence refers that the shop is inside the mall.
• After analysing the meaning of the given prepositions, we can understand that “in” is
appropriate to fill in the blank.

92. D
Sol. • We need a verb here to fill in the blank and all of the options are different forms of the verb
“love”.
• Now we have the modal “would” here and we know that after a modal auxiliary verb, the
base form of the verb is used.
• For example:
o Should do
o Can live
o Must obey
o Would know
• Now, “loving” is the progressive form of the verb, thus is incorrect.
• “Loved” is the past form, thus is incorrect as well.

• “Loves” is the present form but we don’t use even the added “-s” after modals. So, it is also
ruled out.
• “Love” is the base form of the verb and thus “love” is appropriate to fill in the blank.

93. D
Sol. • Let’s understand the meaning of the given words at first:
o Openly = without concealment, deception, or prevarication
o Severely = strictly or harshly
o Closely = with little or no space or time in between
o Differently = in varied ways; diversely
• As we are talking about “packing”, “openly” is just the opposite to the context.
• We can’t pack anything severely or closely either.
• Thus, option A, B and C are incorrect to the concept.
• After analysing the meaning of the given words, we can understand that “Differently” is

94. B
Sol. • We need to fill the blank with the correct form of the verb here.
• In the sentence, the subject (I) is dropping the boxes so it must be written in the active voice.
• In option A, “was+v3” is the structure of passive voice in simple past tense. So, it is
incorrect.
• Option C and D are incorrect because “drops” and “am dropping” are in present tense and
the passage is in the past. So, they are eliminated as well.
• Option B can be the correct form of verb as it is in the past tense and in active voice.
• After analyzing the meaning of the given words, we can understand that “Dropped” is

95. A
o Enquire = ask about the health and well-being of someone

o Examine = inspect thoroughly in order to determine their nature or condition
o Request = an act of asking politely or formally for something
o Withhold = refuse to give
• At first, we can eliminate option C and D as they are incorrect to the concept.
• Now, we can use both “enquire” and “examine” with health.
• But, “examine” is incorrect because of two reasons:
o It is not followed by a preposition.

• e.g. The doctor examined me and advised to continue the medicines.
o There is nothing in the passage that indicates the narrator was a doctor who went to
examine his mother. Rather he wanted to know the health condition of his mother.
• Thus, after analyzing the meaning of the given words, we can understand that “Enquire” is
96. B
Sol. • The reason was the excellent result of the narrator as the jacket was given to the person who
successfully maintained the grades for eight years.
• Line to refer in the passage:
o “I had been a straight 'A' student since the first grade and in the eighth grade had
looked forward very much to owning that jacket”.

97. B
Sol. • From the thorough reading of the passage, we can clearly understand that the narrator was
brought up by her grandparents.
o “….when I was six I was given to my grandparents to raise”.

98. A
Sol.
• If we look the text closely, it is clearly written that:
o The family was poor and could not provide enough food or the fees of sports event and the
narrator had maintained straight A grade for eight years.
o It makes statement B, C, and E the correct statements.
o The family had 8 children and 2 adults apparently, so it was not small at all. Thus, statement
D is incorrect.
o There is no information mentioned about the grandparents’ occupation, and the father is
mentioned to be a farm labourer. Thus, statement A is also wrong.
• Lines to refer for the correct statements in the passage:
o “My father was a farm labourer who couldn't earn enough money to feed eight
children…”
o “We couldn't participate in sports at school because there were registration fees,
uniform costs, and trips out of town; so, even though our family was quite agile and
athletic there would never be a school sports jacket for us”.
o “I had been a straight 'A' student since the first grade…”

99. D
Sol. • “Heart sank” means to become sad or disappointed about something
o e.g. My heart sank when I saw the pained expression on her face
• The narrator was a good student so she felt disappointed about the situation where she was
defended by a teacher.
o “I heard them say 'Martha' and I couldn't believe it. "Martha has a straight A-plus
average and you know it." That was Mr. Schmidt and he sounded very angry. "I refuse
to do it! I don't care who Joann's father is, her grades don't even begin to compare to
Martha's," he continued. My heart sank.”

100. D
Sol. • From the passage we get the information that the graduation jacket had a colour combination
of green and golden and had a golden S on its left front.
o The scholarship jacket — a beautiful gold and green jacket had a big gold S on the left
front side and your name written in gold letters on the pocket.

The small Texas school that I went to had a tradition carried out every year during the eighth grade
graduation: a beautiful gold and green jacket (the school colours) was awarded to the student who had
maintained the grade for eight years.
The scholarship jacket — a beautiful gold and green jacket had a big gold S on the left front side and your
name written in gold letters on the pocket.
My oldest sister, Rosie, had won the jacket a few years back, and I fully expected to also. I had been a
straight 'A' student since the first grade and in the eighth grade had looked forward very much to owning
that jacket.
My father was a farm labourer who couldn't earn enough money to feed eight children, so when I was six I
was given to my grandparents to raise. We couldn't participate in sports at school because there were
registration fees, uniform costs, and trips out of town; so, even though our family was quite agile and
athletic there would never be a school sports jacket for us. This one, the scholarship jacket, was our only
chance.
Another hour of sweating in basketball was coming up and I was walking up to the gym. Then I
remembered my P.E. shorts and I had to walk all the way back and get them. I was almost back at my
classroom door when I heard voices raised in anger as if in some sort of argument.
I recognised the voices: Mr. Schmidt, my history teacher, and Mr. Boone, my math teacher, seemed to be
arguing about me. I heard them say 'Martha' and I couldn't believe it. "Martha has a straight A-plus
average and you know it." That was Mr. Schmidt and he sounded very angry. "I refuse to do it! I don't care
who Joann's father is, her grades don't even begin to compare to Martha's," he continued. My heart sank.
The narrator says, "I looked forward very much to owning that jacket," because:
A. she wanted to prove to her teachers that she was B. she had been an A grade student for 8 years
good
C. the jacket had the school name on it D. it was a beautiful jacket
The narrator was brought up by her:

A. sister B. grandparents
C. teachers D. parents

not good defend her though she was the best student
The school honoured the best student in eighth grade with:

A. a green jacket with the name in green B. a golden jacket with an S in green
C. a green jacket with a gold pocket D. a gold and green jacket with a gold S

⇒ 117x + 104 + 52 = 120x + 96 + 48

⇒ 120x – 117x = 156 – 144
⇒ 3x = 12
⇒ x = 12/3 = 4
इसिलए, A की आयु (8 वष पहले) = 9 × 4 = 36 वष
A की वतमान आयु = 36 + 8 = 44 वष
C की वतमान आयु = 44 – 4 = 40 वष

अब,
दोनों िबक् री म ू य के बीच अंतर = 74 (िदया है)
⇒ 1.105x – 0.92x = 74
⇒ 0.185x = 74
⇒ x = 74/0.185 = 400
अत: व तु का क् रय म ू य 400 पये है।

प्र नानुसार,
⇒ 330 + 33x + 10x + x2 = 345 + 23x + 15x + x2
⇒ 330 + 43x = 345 + 38x
⇒ 43x – 38x = 345 – 330

तब, A की द ता = 30x/10 = 3x इकाई/िदन
और B की द ता = 30x/15 = 2x इकाई/िदन
A के काय छोड़ने के बाद B ारा िकया गया काय = 5 × (2x) = 10x इकाई
उनके ारा एक साथ िकया गया काय = 30x – 10x = 20x इकाई

िफर, 12% प्रित वष साधारण याज पर िनवे श की गई रािश = (25000 – x) पये
अब, प्र नानुसार
(x) × 10% × 2 + (25000 – x) × 12% × 2 = 5640
⇒ 0.2x + 6000 – 0.24x = 5640
⇒ 0.04x = 6000 – 5640
⇒ x = 360/0.04 = 9000

िफर शेष 280 िकमी के िलए गित = (x + 15) िकमी/घंटा
अब, प्र नानुसार,
िलया गया कु ल समय = 11 घंटे
⇒ 11x2 + 165x = 1500 + 380x
⇒ 11x2 + 165x – 380x – 1500
⇒ 11x2 – 215x – 1500 = 0
⇒ 11x2 – 275x + 60x – 1500 = 0
⇒ 11x(x – 25) + 60(x – 25) = 0
⇒ (x – 25) (11x + 60) = 0
⇒ x = 25 या x = -60/11
इसिलए, गित 25 िकमी/घंटा है.
100 िकमी की दूरी तय करने म लगा समय = दूरी/गित = 100/25 = 4 घंटा

76. D
• Infection = an act or process of contaminate with a disease-producing substance or agent

something or someone
• Pandemic = a disease that is prevalent over a whole country or the world
• Chronic = an illness) persisting for a long time or constantly recurring
• Endemic = a disease or condition) regularly found among particular people or in a certain

area
Hence, option D the correct answer.
77. D
• The tense of the sentence is present continuous tense.
• Active: subject + Is/are/am + verb (ing) + object…?
• Passive: object + Is/are/am + being + verb (IIIrd from) + by + subject…?
voice: A new language is being learnt by me this year.
78. A
• The tense of the sentence is simple present tense.

• Active: Subject + verb (“s“ or “es” with singular noun) + object…
• Passive: Object + Is/are/am + verb (IIIrd form) + by + subject…
voice: Beautiful landscapes are painted by Rosy.
79. C
Sol.
The idiom See eye to eye means be in full agreement.
Example: The boss and I do not always see eye to eye.
80. B
Sol. • We need a demonstrative adjective to fill in the blank to qualify the noun “heavy box”.
• The demonstrative adjective is to work as a determiner here.
• Thus, option A can be eliminated at first as “them” is a pronoun, not an adjective.
• Now, “heavy box” refers to a single box, so the preceding determiner must be in singular
form as well.
• Following that, option C and option D are incorrect as “those” and “these” are plural
demonstrative adjectives.
• “This”, the singular adjective, fits perfectly to the meaning of the sentence.
• Thus, the blank must be filled with the adjective determiner “this”.
81. D
• Survey = look closely at or examine (someone or something)

o Example: Her green eyes surveyed him angrily.
• Ignore = refuse to take notice of or acknowledge; disregard intentionally
• Request = an act of asking politely or formally for something
• Trial = a test of the performance, qualities, or suitability of someone or something
• Examine = inspect (someone or something) thoroughly in order to determine their nature or

condition.
o Example: A doctor examined me and said I might need a caesarean.
82. D
Sol. Option D has the incorrectly spelled word.
• The correct spelling is “Arrogance”.

• It means exaggerating or disposed to exaggerate one's own worth or importance often
by an overbearing manner.
The meaning of the other words are as follows:
• Illumination = lights used in decorating a building or other structure

• Appeal = make a serious, urgent, or heartfelt request
• Grammar = a set of actual or presumed prescriptive notions about correct use of a language
83. B
Sol. The underlined part of the sentence is grammatically incorrect. The error is related to use of
incorrect verb form in a particular tense.
As we can see:
• The sentence is in past form as the 1st verb is “was crowded”. The second verb should also
be in the past form.
• In the second part of the sentence, the subject is feeling uncomfortable, so it must be written
in the active voice.
• “Was feel” thus is incorrect.
Now look at the options:

• We do need a substitution here, so we can list out option D at the first go.
• “Am feeling” is written in present continuous tense. So, option A is incorrect.
• “Was felt” is written in the passive form of simple past tense. Thus, option C is also incorrect.
• “Was feeling” is written in the past continuous tense and is in the active voice. So, it makes
sense in the sentence.
• The correct sentence will be: The market was crowded with shoppers and I was feeling
very uncomfortable.
84. A
Sol.
The coherent passage is about making a face mask.
• Statement S introduces the topic of the passage and thus it will come first as the
introductory sentence.
• Statement P will come next as it is talking about the 2 rectangular pieces mentioned in
statement S.
• Statement R will follow statement P as it is referring to the next step.
• Statement Q will follow statement P showing the final step of the process.
• Thus, the correct rearrangement will be SPRQ.
The passage after rearrangement will be: In order to make a face mask, take 2 rectangular
pieces of cotton fabric that measure about 7 inches by 9 inches. Sew the two
rectangular pieces together all the way to make a double layer. Now make three evenly
spaced pleats in the sewn rectangles. Finally sew the elastic straps to the mask along
the long edges.
85. C
Sol. The idiom Be on a high alert means to be ready for or expecting something such as danger
or an opportunity.
Example: Drivers need to be on a high alert for icy condition.
86. C
• Enliven = make someone more cheerful or animated or confident

o Example: Your visit had clearly enlivened my mother.
• Brighten = make or become more light
• Withhold = refuse to give something that is due to or is desired by another
• Dishearten = cause (someone) to lose determination or confidence

o Example: The farmer was disheartened by the damage to his crops.
• Create = bring something into existence
87. B
Sol. The sentence is given in direct speech, and we need to convert it into indirect speech. It is an
interrogative sentence.
• The reporting verb “said” is changed to “asked” as per the sense of the sentence.
• Inverted commas (" ") are removed.
• The reported speech is in the form of WH-Question (why), thus no conjunction is used before the
question word. The question word itself works as a conjunction.
• The reported verb is made assertive; i.e. it is kept in the order of “subject + verb”.
• As the reporting verb is in V2 form, the tense of the speech will change from the present continuous
tense to the past continuous tense. Thus, “are taking” changes to “was taking”.
• The second person pronoun (you) changes to according to the object of reporting speech (the assistant).
Thus, “you” changes to “he”.
• “This” changes to “that”.
• The sign of interrogation (?) is removed and full stop is used.
So, with the help of the above structures, we can convert the given sentence into indirect speech: Sumit
asked the assistant why he was taking a printout of that document.

88. A
Sol. The sentence is grammatically incorrect and the error lies in option A.
• The error is related to the “use of verb”.
• Here the forms of verbs “draw” and “label” are incorrect.
• The diagrams cannot be drawn or labelled by itself. So, obviously the sentence is in passive
voice.
• The sentence contains a phrasal verb “should”.
• The structures for active/passive voices for modal verbs are:
o Active: Subject + modal verb + verb (Ist form) + object...
o Passive: Object + modal verb + be + verb (IIIrd form) + by + subject...
• See the examples for further reference:
o It can be done. [Active]

o It could have been done. [Passive]
o Your car could be sold. [Active]

o Your car could have been sold. [Passive]
• Thus, “draw and label” should be replaced with “drawn and labelled” to make the
sentence grammatically correct.
The correct sentence will be: The diagrams should be drawn and labelled neatly.
89. A
Sol. The sentence is given of direct speech, and we need to convert it into indirect speech. It is an imperative
sentence.
• The reporting verb “said” is changed to “told” as per the sense of the sentence.
• Inverted commas (" ") are removed and “to” is used before the main verb of the speech (get).
• The first person pronoun (me) will change according to the subject (mother). Thus, “me” changes to
“her”.
NOTE: “Tell” is a verb that we can use for any sense, be it a general statement or a statement including
any kind of impression (order, advice etc.) and expression (grief, happiness, anger etc.).
So, with the help of the above structures, we can convert the given sentence into indirect speech: Mother
told Ravi to get her the newspaper.
90. B
• Cloakroom = a room in a public building where outdoor clothes or luggage may be left
• Dormitory = a large building at a college or university where students live
• Observatory = a room or building housing an astronomical telescope or other scientific

equipment for the study of natural phenomena
• Mansion = a large, impressive house
Hence, option B the correct answer.
91. D
Sol. • Let’s understand the meanings of the given prepositions:
o For = indicates a purpose

o With = someone/something accompanied by another person/thing
o To = expressing motion in the direction of a particular location
o In = expressing the situation when something is inside something else
• The sentence refers that the shop is inside the mall.
• After analysing the meaning of the given prepositions, we can understand that “in” is

92. D
Sol. • We need a verb here to fill in the blank and all of the options are different forms of the verb
“love”.
• Now we have the modal “would” here and we know that after a modal auxiliary verb, the
base form of the verb is used.
• For example:
o Should do
o Can live
o Must obey
o Would know
• Now, “loving” is the progressive form of the verb, thus is incorrect.
• “Loved” is the past form, thus is incorrect as well.
• “Loves” is the present form but we don’t use even the added “-s” after modals. So, it is also
ruled out.
• “Love” is the base form of the verb and thus “love” is appropriate to fill in the blank.

93. D
o Openly = without concealment, deception, or prevarication
o Severely = strictly or harshly
o Closely = with little or no space or time in between
o Differently = in varied ways; diversely
• As we are talking about “packing”, “openly” is just the opposite to the context.
• We can’t pack anything severely or closely either.

• Thus, option A, B and C are incorrect to the concept.
• After analysing the meaning of the given words, we can understand that “Differently” is

94. B
Sol. • We need to fill the blank with the correct form of the verb here.
• In the sentence, the subject (I) is dropping the boxes so it must be written in the active voice.
• In option A, “was+v3” is the structure of passive voice in simple past tense. So, it is
incorrect.
• Option C and D are incorrect because “drops” and “am dropping” are in present tense and
the passage is in the past. So, they are eliminated as well.
• Option B can be the correct form of verb as it is in the past tense and in active voice.
• After analyzing the meaning of the given words, we can understand that “Dropped” is

95. A
o Enquire = ask about the health and well-being of someone

o Examine = inspect thoroughly in order to determine their nature or condition
o Request = an act of asking politely or formally for something
o Withhold = refuse to give
• At first, we can eliminate option C and D as they are incorrect to the concept.
• Now, we can use both “enquire” and “examine” with health.
• But, “examine” is incorrect because of two reasons:
o It is not followed by a preposition.
• e.g. The doctor examined me and advised to continue the medicines.
o There is nothing in the passage that indicates the narrator was a doctor who went to
examine his mother. Rather he wanted to know the health condition of his mother.
• Thus, after analyzing the meaning of the given words, we can understand that “Enquire” is
96. B
Sol. • The reason was the excellent result of the narrator as the jacket was given to the person who
successfully maintained the grades for eight years.
o “I had been a straight 'A' student since the first grade and in the eighth grade had
looked forward very much to owning that jacket”.

97. B
Sol. • From the thorough reading of the passage, we can clearly understand that the narrator was
brought up by her grandparents.
o “….when I was six I was given to my grandparents to raise”.

98. A
Sol.
• If we look the text closely, it is clearly written that:
o The family was poor and could not provide enough food or the fees of sports event and the
narrator had maintained straight A grade for eight years.
o It makes statement B, C, and E the correct statements.
o The family had 8 children and 2 adults apparently, so it was not small at all. Thus, statement
D is incorrect.
o There is no information mentioned about the grandparents’ occupation, and the father is
mentioned to be a farm labourer. Thus, statement A is also wrong.
• Lines to refer for the correct statements in the passage:
o “My father was a farm labourer who couldn't earn enough money to feed eight
children…”
o “We couldn't participate in sports at school because there were registration fees,
uniform costs, and trips out of town; so, even though our family was quite agile and
athletic there would never be a school sports jacket for us”.
o “I had been a straight 'A' student since the first grade…”

99. D
Sol. • “Heart sank” means to become sad or disappointed about something
o e.g. My heart sank when I saw the pained expression on her face
• The narrator was a good student so she felt disappointed about the situation where she was
defended by a teacher.
o “I heard them say 'Martha' and I couldn't believe it. "Martha has a straight A-plus
average and you know it." That was Mr. Schmidt and he sounded very angry. "I refuse
to do it! I don't care who Joann's father is, her grades don't even begin to compare to
Martha's," he continued. My heart sank.”

100. D
Sol. • From the passage we get the information that the graduation jacket had a colour combination
of green and golden and had a golden S on its left front.

o The scholarship jacket — a beautiful gold and green jacket had a big gold S on the left
front side and your name written in gold letters on the pocket.
