Directions for questions 32 – 36 : Read the following passage carefully to answer these questions: Passage – I It is indisputable that in order to fulfill many functions, water should be clean and biologically valuable. The costs connected with the provision of biologically valuable water for food production with the maintenance of sufficiently clear water, therefore, are primarily production costs. Purely “environmental” costs seem to be in this respect only costs connected with the safeguarding of cultural, recreational and sports functions which the water courses and reservoirs fulfill both in nature and in human settlements. The pollution problems of the atmosphere resemble those of the water only partly. So far, the supply of air has not been deficient as was the case with water and the dimensions of the airshed are so vast that a number of people still hold www.zioneducationonline.com 9899758900, 9891638000 Leading institute for MBA/GMAT/GRE/BBA/BCA/Hotel Mgt/Law entrance exams Centres at: North Campus, Pitampura, Rajinder Nagar, Noida, Greater Noida, Indirapuram(Ghaziabad)

the opinion that air need not be economized. However, scientific forecasts have shown that the time may be already approaching when clear and biologically valuable air will become problem number one. Air being ubiquitous, people are particularly sensitive about any reduction in the quality of the atmosphere, the increased contents of dust and gaseous exhalations, and particularly about the presence of odours. The demand for purity of the atmosphere, therefore, emanates much more from the population itself than from the specific sectors of the national economy affected by a polluted or even biologically aggressive atmosphere. The household’s share in atmospheric pollution is far bigger than that of industry which, in turn, further complicates the economic problems of atmospheric purity. Some countries have already collected positive experience with the reconstruction of the whole urban sectors on the basis of new heating appliances based on the combustion of solid fossil fuel; estimates of the economic consequences of such measures have also been put forward. In contrast to water, where the maintenance of purity would seem primarily to be related to the costs of production and transport, a far higher proportion of the costs of maintaining the purity of the atmosphere derives from environmental considerations. Industrial sources of gaseous and dust emissions are well known and classified; their location can be accurately identified, which makes them controllable. With the exception perhaps, of the elimination of sulphur dioxide, technical means and technological processes exist which can be used for the elimination of all excessive impurities of the air from various emissions. Atmospheric pollution caused by the private property of individuals (their dwellings, automobiles, etc.) is difficult to control. Some sources such as motor vehicles are very mobile, and they are thus capable of polluting vast territories. In this particular case, the cost of antipollution measures will have to be borne, to a considerable extent, by individuals, whether in the form of direct costs or indirectly in the form of taxes, dues, surcharges, etc. The problem of noise is a typical example of an environmental problem which cannot be solved only passively, i.e. merely by protective measures, but will require the adoption of active measures, i.e. direct interventions at the source. The costs of a complete protection against noise are so prohibitive as to make it unthinkable even in the economically most developed countries. At the same time, it would not seem feasible, either economically most developed countries. At the same time, it would not seem feasible, either economically or politically, to force the population to carry the costs of individual protection against noise, for example, by reinforcing the sound insulation of their homes. A solution of this problem probably cannot be found in the near future. 32. According to the passage, the population at large (a) Is unconcerned about air pollution controls (b) Is especially aware of problems concerning air quality and purity (c) Regards water pollution as more serious than air pollution (d) Has failed to recognize the economic consequences of pollution (e) All of the above 33.

Scientific forecasts have shown that clear and biologically valuable air (a) Is likely to remain abundant for some time (b) Creates fewer economic difficulties than does water pollution (c) May soon be dangerously lacking (d) May be beyond the capacity of our technology to protect (e) All of the above

34.

According to the passage, which of the following contributes most to atmospheric pollution? (a) Industry (b) Production (c) Households (d) Waste disposal (e) None of the above

35.

Directions for questions 37 – 44 : Read the following passage carefully to answer these questions: Passage – II Because carpets, especially floor coverings, are destroyed through use, very few rungs from before the sixteenth century have survived. There are two basic types of carpet: flat-weaves and pile, or knotted. Both can be made on either vertical or horizontal frames. The best known flat-weaves today are Turkish kilims which are typically woven in wool with bold, geometric patterns and sometimes embroidered details. Kilim weaving is done in the tapestry technique, which allows free placement of various colours. Knotted carpets are an ancient invention. The oldest known example, excavated in Siberia and dating to the fourth or fifth century B.C., has designs evocative of Archaemenid Persian art, suggesting that the technique may have originated in ancient Persia. In knotted rugs, the pile-plush, thickly tufted surface – is made by tying coloured strands, usually wool but occasionally silk for deluxe carpets onto the vertical elements (warp) or a yarn grid. These knotted loops are later sheared, cut, and trimmed to form the plush surface of the carpet. Rows of knots alternate with flat-woven rows (weft) that hold the carpet together. The weft is usually in undyed yarn and is eventually hidden by the coloured knots. Two common tying techniques are the symmetrical “Turkish” knot, which works well for straight-line designs, and the asymmetrical “Persian” knot, used for rendering curvilinear patterns. The greater the number of knots, the denser and more durable is the pile. The finest carpets have 100 knots per square inch, each one tied separately by hand. Because these rugs are not mass-produced the size and shape may not be exact and colours may very slightly; however, these “flows” are proof of authenticity. Although royal workshops produced the most luxurious carpets, most knotted rugs have traditionally been knotted rugs have traditionally been made in tents and homes. Carpets were woven by either women or men, depending on the www.zioneducationonline.com 9899758900, 9891638000 Leading institute for MBA/GMAT/GRE/BBA/BCA/Hotel Mgt/Law entrance exams Centres at: North Campus, Pitampura, Rajinder Nagar, Noida, Greater Noida, Indirapuram(Ghaziabad)

local custom. Today, an older woman generally works with a young girl, who learns the art of carpet weaving at the loom and eventually passes it on to the next generation. Working between September and May, these women may have woven five carpets, tying up to 5, 000 knots a day. Oriental rugs are considered valuable because they have complex designs and take a long time to produce. Knotted rugs from Persia and Turkey were so highly prized among Westerners that they were often displayed on tables rather than on floors Persian taste favoured intricate, elegant designs that evoked the gardens of paradise. Written accounts indicate that such designs appeared on Persian carpets as early as the seventh century. In one fabled royal carpet, garden paths were rendered in real gold, leaves were modeled with emeralds, and highlights on flowers, fruits and birds were created with pearls and other jewels. Carpets such as this one were definitely as much status symbols within the Islamic world as they were beyond it. 37.

40.

Oriental rugs are sometimes characterized by variations or “flaws” in shape and colour because (a) They are made by hand, not by machine (b) Little quality control exists to ensure consistency (c) The complicated designs are difficult to create, especially in large rungs. (d) So may different artisans are likely to contribute to the making of a single rug. (e) None of the above

41.

An exotic rug with an elaborate design, complete with jewels and gold thread, would most likely. (a) Be used in a sultan’s palace (b) Be created and used in secret because of its great value.

(e) None of the above

Directions for questions 45 – 47 : Read the following passage carefully to answer these questions: Passage – III Human beings have adapted to the physical world not by changing their physical nature, but by adjusting their society. Animals and plants have made adjustments, over long periods, by the development of radical changes in their very organisms. Hereditary differences meet needs of various environments. But among humans, differences in head form and in other physical features are not, in most cases, clearly adaptive. Nor is it clear that mental capacities of races are different. As far as we know, the races are equally intelligent and equally capable of solving their problems of living together. The varying ways of life, it seems, are social and learned differences and not physical and inherited differences. It stands to reason, therefore, that man’s adjustment to his surroundings should be studied in custom and institution, not in anatomy and neural structure.

Directions for questions 48 – 50: Read the following passage carefully to answer these questions: Passage – IV When you are being interviewed for a job, remember that it’s normal for many people to be nervous, particularly in such a stress – producing situation. There are plenty of jobs – needed, probably most – where a little nervousness isn’t looked at askance. It does help to dry a damp brow or a clammy hand just before meeting the interviewer, but otherwise, don’t be too concerned about the outward manifestations of your nervousness. Experienced interviewers will discount most physical signs of nervousness. The only one which people have a hard time ignoring is a fidgety hand. Interviewees who constantly twist their hands or make movements which are dramatically distracting are calling attention to their nervousness. Remember that interviewers talk to people in order to ire, not because they enjoy embarrassing uneasy applicants. One way to overcome a flustered feeling, or “butterflies in the stomach,” is to note that interviewers want to hire people who have something to offer their company. If they think you will fit into their organization, you will be the one who is sought after. It’s almost as though you are interviewing them to see if they are good enough for you. 48.
