31. (A, B, D) Options A, B & D are correct 39. (B) Anil is the brother of Romi and Romi
32. (B, D) Consistent but unique solution is the son of Chandra. So, Anil is the
a1 b1 son of Chandra. Now, Bimal is the
 father of Chandra. So, Anil is the
a2 b2
grandson of Bimal. Hence, option (B)
Consistent but infinite solution is correct. The pictorial representation

40. (C) According to the net of the cube, 44. (A) I returned on Tuesday.

Opposite Given, today is Friday.

Then, tomorrow is Saturday.
Now, day before Saturday is again
Friday.
Day after Friday is Saturday, then
The different views of the cube four days before Saturday is
Tuesday.
Hence, I returned on Tuesday from the
trip.
So, option (C) is incorrect view of the 45. (A)
cube.
41. (C)
CRITICAL THINKING

46. (D) A nucleus is an essential part of a cell.

It is located at the center of a cell.
42. (C) In the second and third statement, the Chlorophyll is not produced by cells,
common code is '9a' and the common and not all cells are neurons. All living
word is 'not'. So, '9a' means not'. In entities, not just animals are made up
the first and second statements, the of cells.
common codes are '7c' and '3a' and 47. (D) From statements I and II, we conclude
the common words are 'is' and that out of 30 students 10 students scored
'eternal'. The second statement, '8b' less than Geeta. It means, 19 students
means 'enmity. scored more than Geeta. So, Geeta's rank
43. (C) The direction diagram of Mr. Booshi is in the class is 20th. Thus, both the
statements are needed to answer the
as follows:
question.
5 km 48. (A) The need of self-working engine to pump
out the water from the flooded mines led
James Watt to invent the steam engine.
3 km
49. (D) tm = of.

5 km 2 km gv = detail.
Starting point mk = either ‘results’ or ‘first’.

So, the venue was towards the North
direction of the point, where Mr.
Booshi met the passerby.
