Answers are:

Q1]
A] There is much to be done
B] Outside in the sunrise garden roses are already awake, clematis climb like a growing child and all the border marigolds are on fire.
C] Climbing painfully from a sore mattress, standing in striped pyjams by the window, Jim stares gardenwards.
D] These days it's all weed killing, backache and wishes.
ABCD
DCBA
CADB
BCDA
ACBD
Answer is : 3 - CADB
Explanation: C introduces us to both Jim and the garden. I think this is sufficient in this case...
Q2]
A] I spent months in that hospital bed.
B] Sadly, the plane crash had claimed many lives including those of Jack and Ross, my business parteners - a loss that devasted me.
C] The three of us had experienced so much together over the previous few years, and I had no interest in running the company without them.
D] They were not simply the co-founders of Bravelife.com Jack and Ross had become my best friends.
DCBA
ABCD
DCAB
CBDA
ADCB
Answer is : 2 - ABCD
Explanation: Mandatory pair over here is AB. First statement tell us that the author is dealing with his illness and that follows with B
"The three of us"in statement C has a reference in A and B. Then company name comes in D. Hence 2 is the option.

Hi Puys,

Try following questions. I found them tricky. My answers do not match with answers given in the source. So please post your explanation also.



Q1]
A] A feature of the boom in 1980’s was the sensitivity of the stock markets to government policies.
B] Companies, especially in the IT sector, are often more dependent n foreign markets than on what happens
at home.
C] These changes have made Indian stock markets less sensitive to government policy.
D] Since then economy has been substantially liberalized.
E] And the attitude of the foreign institutional investors is quite heavily influenced by trends in global stock
markets.

Options are:

  1. BEADC
  2. ADECB
  3. ADBEC
  4. AEBCD
Q2]


A]They argue that it is this, which has led to the bankruptcy in many states.

B] Here was a commission whose members worked very hard, did exemplary research and homework, before coming
up with a list of recommendations that balanced economic efficiency with safety nets for disadvantaged labor.

C] It reminds us of the political shenanigans during the implementation of the Fifth Pay Commission.

D] How many times have you heard experts, politicians and the finance ministers refer to the implementation of the
pay hikes following the commission’s report as the singular cause for the increase in government’s expenditure?

E] Barring P. Chidambran, who was then the finance minister, every single political party and politician opposed the
implementation of the recommendations and are directly responsible for the current fiscal crises in the Centre
and the states.

Options are:

  1. DEBAC
  2. CDABE
  3. BEADC
  4. BAECD
All the best...

I will post the answers after 8pm...
