Then he bought more books such that the stock was now four times the remainder and sold double the number than the last sale.

“Questions numbering from 41-45 will be related to the paragraph given below: I was concerned to read of the proposals for compulsory fluoridation of water. Fluoride is a medication and one with well–reported side effects, such as increased incidence of osteoporosis. Those not wealthy enough to afford water filtering systems will be forced to consume it; the dose will not depend on any perceived ‘need’ but on the amount of water consumed: I get through up to seven litres a day so my dosage would be up to 14 times that of many people. Additionally, the measure merely serves as a temporary cover for the real problem – that of sugar consumption; it is not unfluoridated water but sugar which causes tooth decay; it also causes diabetes, immune system impairment and obesity. Fluoridation therefore merely enables people to solve their consciences in the short term regarding bad diet and to do themselves long–term damage; it is like shooting the miner’s canary. It is a civil liberties issue; if fluoride, why not any other medication? It is frightening to think that this question is even being raised. 41. What role does the author’s claim that fluoridation merely enables people to solve their consciences in the short term regarding bad diet and to do themselves long–term damage play in the argument?”

1. It is the premise that supports the author’s claim that those not wealthy enough to afford water filtering systems will be forced to consume fluoridated water
2. It is the premise that supports the author’s claim that the measure to fluoridate water merely serves as a cover for the real problem – that of sugar consumption
3. It is the conclusion that follows from the author’s claim that the measure to fluoridate water serves as a temporary cover for the real problem – that of sugar consumption
4. It is the conclusion that follows from the author’s claim that fluoride is a medication with well–reported side effects, such as increased incidence of osteoporosis.

Answer: (c)

42. Which of the following most accurately expresses the main point of the passage?

1. The proposed policy for compulsory fluoridation of water should not be put into action as it shifts the focus from the real problem and goes against civil liberties
2. The proposed policy of compulsory fluoridation of water should not be undertaken as merely serves as a temporary cover for the real problem – that of sugar consumption
3. Fluoride is a medication and one with well–reported side effects, such as increased incidence of osteoporosis
4. Those not wealthy enough to afford water filtering systems will be forced to consume to consume fluoridated water against their will.

Answer: (a)

43. What is the assumption required by the author’s argument?

1. Fluoridation of water would cause more harm than it would benefit
2. Bringing down the levels of sugar consumption is a far better option to prevent tooth decay than fluoridation of water
3. The people are not aware of ill–effects of fluoridation
4. If water is fluoridated, people will have no incentive to cut down on sugar consumption.

Answer: (d)

44. Which of the following, if true, weakens the author’s argument?

1. The people are aware of ill–effects of fluoridation
2. Messages about the ill–effects of sugar–consumption on dental health will be published along–with the fluoridation of water
3. People tend to get complacent with their health when they are under the perception that their health is being taken care
4. The side–effects of fluoride are well documented.

Answer: (b)

45. Which of the following, if true, strengthens the author’s argument?

1. The ratio of fluoride to water will be maintained to an effective level to reduce the incidence of tooth decay, while minimizing the risk of side–effects
2. The side–effects of fluoride are usually very mild and infrequent
3. A policy that effectively gives people no choice as to whether they took a particular medication could be justified only if it had massive and widespread benefits that could not be achieved in any other way; fluoridation of water supplies does not come in this category
4. All of the above.

Answer: (c)

“Questions numbering from 46-50 will be related to the paragraph given below: Carmakers will be more than a decade late in meeting their target to produce less polluting vehicles because people are buying bigger, more powerful models, figures suggest. Sales of small cars fell to their lowest level for seven years last year while large vehicles secured their highest share of the market yet. One in eight cars sold last year was a 4X4 or people carrier, compared with one in eighteen a decade ago. Average emissions of carbon dioxide for new cars fell by 1.2 per cent last year, well short of the industry target of a 5 per cent decline. The fall was almost entirely due to the rise in popularity of diesel vehicles. The European target of reducing average CO2 emissions for new cars was 140g/km by 2008. The British average last year was 169.4g/km and, on current trends, 140g/km will be reached only in 2021. The association of car manufacturers said that drivers were partly to blame for demanding bigger cars with faster acceleration and more gadgets. It said that falling prices of new cars and rising incomes had encouraged millions of drivers to buy larger vehicles. Features such as air–conditioning and electric windows, which add weight and consume energy, have become almost ubiquitous. Safety systems such as airbags and side–impact bars had added weight while rules on pedestrian–friendly bonnet design had made cars less aerodynamic, it said. The association’s report on the emissions of new cars accused drivers of failing to reflect their concerns about global warming in their choice of car. ‘Consumers must also take an increased responsibility for the vehicles they purchase and the journeys they make,’ it said. But environmentalists say that carmakers are to blame for the poor progress on emissions. 46. Which of the following, if true, would most weaken car manufacturers’ claim in the passage above?”

1. The car manufacturers spent more than half of the advertising budget promoting their SUVs–most polluting cars in their portfolios but only 3 per cent on their smallest, lowest–emission cars
2. The car manufacturers are investing a lot of money in R&D to manufacture hybrid and electric cars that can compete with their petrol and diesel counterparts
3. The sale of petrol–electric hybrids has not increased significantly since its inceptio
4. The car manufacturers have incorporated the decline in technology–costs in their pricing and made the cars cheaper than what they were a few years ago.

Answer: (a)

47. Which of the following most accurately represents the author’s main point in the passage above?

1. The sale of big cars such as 4X4 or people carrier is more than the sale of small cars
2. People demand safety features in a car more now than they did a decade ago
3. Vehicular pollution is the biggest challenge in our fight to bring down pollution levels
4. Car manufacturers have missed deadlines and may continue to do so in producing less polluting cars.

Answer: (d)

48. Based on the passage above, which of the following is the author most likely to disagree with?

1. The car manufacturers have failed so far in meeting their targets of lowering CO2 emissions
2. The consumer buying behaviour has contributed towards the car manufacturers’ failure in producing less polluting cars
3. The car manufacturers have taken complete responsibility of the failure to produce less polluting cars
4. None of the above.

Answer: (c)

49. The car manufacturers’ association’s claim in the passage above logically follows if which of the following is assumed?

1. The consumers get information on which cars would be more polluting than others prior to buying a car
2. The consumers do not get information on which cars would be more polluting than others prior to buying a car
3. Car makers promote only those cars that would give them the maximum profits irrespective of their CO2 emissions
4. The car buyers are more careful of the environment than the car manufacturers.

Answer: (a)

50. Which of the following can be inferred from the author’s arguments in the passage above?

1. Average emissions of carbon dioxide for new cars have not fallen below the previous levels
2. The car manufacturers are committed to cut the carbon dioxide emissions to an industry target of a 5 per cent decline
3. As the car becomes less aerodynamic it consumes more energy
4. Safety systems such as airbags and side–impact bars have enabled the cars to be more fuel efficient.
